Light Controlling Toner

What it is: A cult-favorite toner that works to detoxify the skin thanks to its gentle but effective exfoliation and pore-tightening powers.

Who it's for: All skin types; ideal for oily skin.

What it does: By sweeping away oil and bacteria while binding moisture to the skin, this toner leaves your face soothed, pH-balanced and perfectly prepped for what comes next.

Key ingredients:

- Sweet birch: lightly exfoliates dead skin cells and clears the way for newer, younger ones

- Clove oil: a soothing antiseptic that helps eliminate the oil and bacteria that can lead to breakouts or dullness while calming irritation

- Glycerin: a critical component in alcohol-based astringents. As a humectant, a substance able to preserve moisture, glycerin helps condition the skin and replenish hydration that the alcohol would otherwise remove. In this formula, it’s essential for a fresh-faced, perfectly moisturized complexion

- Cosmetic-grade alcohol: an astringent proven to be extremely effective in skin toning. As an astringent, it removes excess oil from the skin by enveloping surface oils and whisking them away

How to use: Apply the toner after cleansing. Sweep lotion over the face with a cotton ball, avoiding the eye area. Use morning and night as part of your detoxifying ritual.
