7% Glycolic Acid + Licorice Extract + Resveratrol Exfoliating Tonic

Combination

Oily

Apply to clean, dry skin in the evening, avoiding the eye area and any broken or irritated skin. Allow to absorb before applying your serum and moisturiser. Start by using 2–3 times per week. Avoid combining with other exfoliating acids or retinoids in the same routine to minimise the risk of irritation. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. Apply broad-spectrum sunscreen daily, as Glycolic Acid may increase the skin's sensitivity to the sun.

Dark spots

Post breakout marks

Inflammation

Glycolic Acid

Is naturally found in sugar cane, which has a small molecular size that allows it to penetrate deeper into the skin to target a variety of skin concerns. Glycolic Acid assists in unclogging pores, refining and diminishing the appearance of enlarged pores. Glycolic Acid reveals radiant glowing skin, by dissolving the bonds that allow old skin cells to stick together and thicken.

Resveratrol

Neutralises free radical reducing oxidative stress, increases anti-oxidant levels, improves fine lines and weines and increases skin elasticity over a period of 12 weeks.

Licorice Extract

Brightens overall complexion and fades dark spots. Soothes imflammation and reduces post breakout marks.
