Description
Glow Recipe PHA + BHA Pore Tightening Toner — 40ml Travel & Starter Size
Meet the Glow Recipe PHA + BHA Pore Tightening Toner in the 40ml size — the perfect introduction to one of K-beauty's most loved exfoliating toners. Whether you're testing the formula for the first time or need a compact companion for travel, the 40ml bottle delivers the same powerful dual-acid results in a pocket-friendly format.
This Korean-American, fruit-forward toner blends polyhydroxy acid (PHA) and BHA (betaine salicylate from willow bark) to resurface skin and decongest pores at two levels. PHA's larger molecular size ensures gentle surface exfoliation — resurfacing dull, uneven texture without inflammation — while BHA penetrates deeper to dissolve excess sebum and clear blackheads from within the pore.
What makes this toner truly unique is its hydration profile. Watermelon extract delivers amino acids and vitamins, cactus water locks in moisture with electrolytes, and hyaluronic acid provides lasting plumpness. Tea tree extract brings antimicrobial benefits that soothe irritation and keep pores clean, while cucumber cools and calms. The result? Skin that is clear, refined, and visibly hydrated — not tight or stripped.
Why Choose the 40ml?
The 40ml size is ideal for first-time users who want to experience the formula before moving to the larger 150ml full-size bottle. It's also a great travel companion — TSA-friendly and easy to pack. Once hooked, upgrade to the 150ml for better day-to-day value.

FAQs
How is the 40ml different from the 150ml?
The 40ml is a travel/starter size — great for sampling the formula or carrying on trips. The 150ml is the full home-size best for daily users. Both contain the identical formula.
Can I use this every day?
Yes. The formula is designed for daily use thanks to the gentle PHA component. Start once daily and build to twice daily as your skin adjusts.
What makes the watermelon extract special?
Watermelon extract is rich in amino acids and vitamins A, B, and C. It hydrates deeply, helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, and supports an even skin tone.
Is this suitable for acne-prone skin?
Yes. BHA (salicylic acid) is oil-soluble and penetrates the pore lining to dissolve sebum and clear congestion — making this toner particularly beneficial for acne-prone and oily skin types.
Can I use this with the Glow Recipe PHA + BHA Toner 150ml?
They are the same formula — choose one size based on your needs. No need to use both simultaneously.
