Tone, tingle, refine. Prime for actives. Prep me.
Your glow-toner pre-game. A whisper of glycolic refines texture and clears the path for actives to sink in. Swipe, tingle, done skin looks smoother, and your serums work smarter. Use after cleansing, before everything.
How it helps: Glycolic acid (smallest AHA) penetrates effectively to enhance desquamation and improve the look of uneven tone and fine lines. Preps the stratum corneum by clearing surface hindrance so subsequent actives absorb more evenly.
When to use: PM • 3–5×/week (or as tolerated)
How to use: After cleansing, apply to dry skin with cotton or palms. Avoid the eye area. Let it absorb fully before serums/cream.
Pairing / Layering: Alternate nights with Refine+ GA Cream. If you’re sensitive, don’t stack with GA Booster 10% or retinoids on the same night. Follow with a replenishing moisturiser (e.g., Balance Cream or Hydra3 Lift Cream).
Cautions / Notes: SPF mandatory the next morning. Patch test; start 2–3×/week and build up. Reduce frequency if tingling lingers or redness appears.
