Glycolix Toner Glycolic Acid 7% – AHA Exfoliating Toning Solution
Glycolix Toner is a 7% Glycolic Acid toning solution that harnesses the power of alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) to gently exfoliate the skin's surface, remove dead skin cell build-up, and reveal visibly smoother, brighter skin. Glycolic acid is one of the most well-researched AHAs in skincare, known for its ability to refine pore appearance, improve uneven texture, fade dark spots, and enhance overall skin radiance with consistent use.
This versatile toner is suitable for acne-prone skin, helping to unclog congested pores and reduce the appearance of blemishes and post-acne marks. Beyond facial use, Glycolix Toner can also be applied to the scalp to assist with dandruff control and excess oil balance, and to underarm areas where it may help brighten and reduce odour-causing skin build-up. It pairs well with other exfoliants in our glycolic acid and AHA collection. Explore additional cleansing and toning options in our cleansers and toner range.
Important usage guidelines: Perform a patch test before first use. Start with 2–3 times per week and increase frequency gradually as tolerated. Always apply broad-spectrum SPF the following morning — glycolic acid increases photosensitivity. Avoid applying to broken or compromised skin. Avoid simultaneous use with retinol in the same step. Some initial purging (2–4 weeks) may occur as skin adjusts. Consult a dermatologist if pregnant or nursing before use.

FAQs
Do I need to do a patch test before using Glycolix Toner?
Yes. Always patch test on a small area before first use, especially if you have sensitive skin.
Why must I use SPF the next morning?
Glycolic acid (AHA) removes dead surface skin cells, which temporarily increases the skin's sensitivity to UV rays. Broad-spectrum SPF is mandatory the following morning to protect skin from sun damage.
What is skin purging and should I be concerned?
Some users experience an initial purging phase (2–4 weeks) as glycolic acid accelerates skin cell turnover. This is normal. If irritation is severe or persists beyond 4–6 weeks, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist.
Can it be used with retinol?
Avoid using glycolic acid and retinol in the same step. Use them on alternate nights or at different times of day to minimise irritation.
Is it safe to use if pregnant or nursing?
Consult your dermatologist or healthcare provider before using glycolic acid products during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
