Exfoliating facial toner

Filter
Clear
Sorting:

A scrub mechanically removes the top layer of cells, and not always gently – small particles can scratch the skin or irritate capillaries. An exfoliating facial toner works differently: the acids in its formula dissolve the bonds between dead skin cells, and they come off on their own, without friction and the risk of microtrauma.

Why an exfoliating facial toner is better than a scrub

There are no abrasive particles here, so the product is suitable even for skin with enlarged capillaries or mild sensitivity, where a scrub is usually contraindicated. An exfoliating toner works evenly across the entire surface of the face, including areas that are difficult to reach with a scrub – around the wings of the nose or along the hairline. The result is noticeable after just a few uses: the skin tone becomes more even, and the skin texture becomes smoother.

Ingredients in an exfoliating facial toner

The formula most often combines several acids at once. Glycolic acid has the smallest molecule size and penetrates deeper than the others. Lactic acid additionally moisturizes while it works. Salicylic acid is the only oil-soluble one, so it is especially effective against blackheads and enlarged pores. And PHA acids, such as gluconolactone, are suitable even for beginners in acid-based skincare – they work more gently than AHAs.

How often to use an exfoliating facial toner

For sensitive and dry skin, 1–2 times a week is enough; otherwise, there is a risk of overdrying it. Oily and combination skin, as a rule, tolerates an exfoliating toner more often – up to 3 times a week, especially in the T-zone. In any case, it is better to buy a smaller volume, start with the minimum frequency, and observe the skin's reaction during the first two weeks.

How to use an exfoliating facial toner

We offer four simple steps:

  1. Apply the product to a cotton pad after cleansing the facial skin.
  2. Wipe the face, avoiding the area around the eyes.
  3. Let the product absorb for a few minutes without rinsing it off with water.
  4. Continue your skincare routine with a cream or serum.

In the morning, after using such a toner, you should обязательно apply SPF – exfoliated skin is more sensitive to the sun. In subsequent skincare, an exfoliating toner should be supported with niacinamide products – they enhance the effect and additionally tighten pores. They are easy to buy in our online store with delivery throughout Ukraine.

Renewed skin after using such a toner takes makeup much more evenly – powder applies without a patchy or flaky effect.

An exfoliating facial toner is available in several options at Hillary Cosmetics – each with a different concentration of acids. You can buy the suitable one and order delivery directly from the online store – it covers Kyiv and all of Ukraine. The price of the bottle depends on the volume and concentration of active acids, and it is worth purchasing a spare in advance if the toner becomes a permanent step in your facial skincare routine.
