Gently, Effectively Remove Buildup And Impurities

A super gentle exfoliating toner to remove dead skin cells, while preserving the skin barrier.

With a very considered blend of lactic acid (the most gentle AHA), a slow releasing poly-hydroxy acid (PHA), and aloe vera extract, this exfoliating toner is as effective as it is soothing. Designed with sensitive skin and those new to chemical exfoliants in mind, this toner will remove build up of dead skin cells and impurities, soften the appearance of fine lines, boost skin hydration, and pay your water bill (no).

Perfect if you are chasing extra radiance, or someone who has steered clear of exfoliating toners due to skin sensitivity. Rich in vitamins c, e and beta carotene this gentle formula works to reduce discomfort and calm irritation, while amplifying skin nourishment.

Important! When using AHA products, wearing daily SPF becomes even more crucial. So, do it!

Perfect Everyday Toner

Thank you Go-To for this marvellous toner. My sensitive, acne prone and reactive skin is happy with your formulation and I believe it has worked wonders in the evening out my tone and texture.

Gentle But Effective

I’ve been using this every few days and it has helped to smooth my skin and get rid of the dead cells. Yes, it’s gentle enough not to cause anymore reactions to my skin which has been playing up this winter! Def one that will be a repeat buy.

My Skin Is Glowing!

The Gentle Exfoliator made my skin feel soft and clean, and I loved the fact that I didn't break out after using it (I've had issues with other liquid exfoliants). It's a really clean and fresh formula, and made my skin feel super soft.

My first GoTo product
This exfoliator is great, very mild, good for my sometimes sensitive skin but gives good results.
Also a great price, I’ve paid more in the past and the results not as good. I look forward to my next product.

Great product
I like how gentle this is on my sensitive skin. I've had some issues the last year or 2 as I've got older and trying this has been a happy chance.

I love the gentle exfoliator. It makes such a good base for the rest of my skincare routine and I’ve noticed a drastic decrease in breakouts since using it

Red Skin
Is it normal to have bright red skin 1 minute after applying? It always goes away after about 30min or so .. just wondering if that’s what the product is designed to do or is it best to discontinue to use?
