The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner – Smoother, Brighter Skin

A water-based exfoliating toner with 7% glycolic acid that gently smooths skin texture, improves dullness, and promotes a more even-looking skin tone.

The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner is a cult-favorite chemical exfoliant designed to visibly smooth skin texture and enhance natural radiance. Formulated with 7% glycolic acid (an AHA), this toner helps remove dead skin cells, refine the appearance of pores, and improve uneven tone without harsh scrubbing.

The lightweight, water-based formula glides easily over the skin using a cotton pad and works best in the evening as part of a simple skincare routine. Ingredients like Tasmanian pepperberry help reduce the look of irritation associated with exfoliation, while aloe vera and ginseng support comfort and hydration. With consistent use, skin appears brighter, smoother, and more refreshed.

Suitable for most skin types when used correctly, this toner can be used on the face and other areas like the neck or body. It’s fragrance-free, vegan, and cruelty-free, making it a great option for anyone looking for effective, affordable exfoliation that delivers visible results over time.
