Say seeya to misbehaving skin.

This BHA is an excellent and natural acidic source best known for dissolving blackheads, clearing breakouts, and banishing unwanted congestion. We’ve also added Tasmanian Pepper fruit extract to calm cranky skin and reduce redness while this exfoliating toner carries out its deeply clarifying duties. 

Equal parts clearing and calming, you can comfortably add this product to your daily routine and see results without irritation. 

You can use this one as an effective spot treatment too! Dabbing directly on pimples or breakouts to reduce bacteria and inflammation in that area alone.

Sunburn Alert: This product contains a beta-hydroxy acid (BHA) that may increase your skin’s sensitivity to the sun. Use daily sunscreen while using this product. Or else!

Beta-hydroxy acid (BHA) use is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Always consult your GP to determine exactly what your skin needs during this period.

    LOVE the product, HATE the new packaging

    I've been using this product fairly consistently most days for a little under a year now and I have loved it - as someone with rather sensitive, acne-prone skin this had improved my skin so much, and I just recently repurchased it from Mecca.

    HOWEVER, I don't know when it was, but they recently changed the packaging from the open hole top to a twist and push, and it is by far the worst packaging. Half the time nothing comes out and the other half it squirts out the sides and then drips out onto the floor. It's such a shame because it wonders for my skin.
