Glycolic Acid - This beet sugar–derived AHA, used at a 7% concentration, sweeps away surface buildup to reveal a smoother, more even, radiant complexion.

Lactic Acid - A sugarcane-derived AHA that gently smooths and hydrates to brighten and soften the skin, formulated at a 3% concentration.

Salicylic Acid - A pore-clearing BHA at a 2% concentration that helps prevent congestion and breakouts while smoothing skin texture.

Niacinamide - A calming, barrier-strengthening B3 vitamin that evens skin tone and supports a balanced, radiant complexion.

After cleansing, apply Glow Tonic to face and neck area with a cotton pad or your palms, avoiding the eye area. Let it absorb fully, then follow with your serums and moisturizer.

Those with very sensitive or compromised skin should patch test first. Start with 2–3 times per week and build to daily use if tolerated.

Should I use this in my AM or PM routine?
We recommend using it in your PM routine so the actives can work while your skin rests. If you prefer to use it in the morning, just be sure to follow with SPF, as exfoliating acids can increase sun sensitivity.

Is it normal to feel tingling?
Because this is an active formula, a slight tingling sensation is normal—but it shouldn’t feel uncomfortable. If you have sensitive or compromised skin, patch test before applying to your full face. If any redness or irritation occurs, wash off and discontinue use.

How do I integrate this product into my routine?
Apply Glow Tonic right after cleansing to prep your skin and boost the absorption of the steps that follow. Begin with 2–3 times per week, then gradually increase to daily use as your skin adjusts. If your routine includes other actives (like our Adaptogen + Copper Peptide Mask) we suggest using on alternate days to avoid overwhelming skin. If you use it in the morning, be sure to finish with SPF.

Will this make my skin sun-sensitive?
Yes, always pair exfoliating acids with SPF. These actives reveal fresh new skin, which needs a little extra protection from the sun. Daily SPF keeps your skin protected, calm, and glowing.
