COSRX AHA/BHA Clarifying Treatment Toner - 150ml

Cosrx AHA/BHA Clarifying Treatment Toner is a dual-acid prep toner with glycolic acid (AHA) and betaine salicylate (BHA) that gently exfoliates and preps the skin for better absorption of subsequent skincare products. Made with a willow bark water and apple fruit water base for natural sources of salicylates and AHAs.

This toner works at a mildly acidic pH to maintain the skin's acid mantle while providing light exfoliation. Allantoin soothes. Panthenol strengthens the barrier. The gentle formula is designed for daily use, it's not a strong exfoliant like the AHA 7 or BHA Power Liquids, but rather a prep toner that keeps skin smooth and clear between deeper exfoliation sessions.

1. After cleansing, spray or apply the toner onto a cotton pad.
2. Gently swipe across your face, avoiding the eye area.
3. Alternatively, spray directly onto your face and pat in.
4. Follow with serum and moisturiser.
5. Use morning and evening.

Pro tip: Think of this toner as the "prep coach" for your skincare routine, it doesn't do the heavy exfoliation itself (that's what the AHA 7 and BHA Power Liquids are for), but it keeps the skin surface clear and at the right pH for optimal absorption of everything that follows. Use this daily, and reserve the stronger Power Liquids for 2-3 times per week. The spray format is convenient for a quick swipe with a cotton pad. Also works as a gentle daily tone-evening step if stronger acids are too much for your skin.
