Exfoliating Toner · All Skin Types
Smoother skin.
Brighter tone.
A gentle liquid exfoliating toner with 5% Glycolic Acid, Cranberry, and Lingonberry Extracts — removes skin build-up, promotes cell renewal, and helps reveal a smoother, more even-toned complexion with every use. Apply a few times weekly in the evening.
Exfoliate
5% Glycolic Acid dissolves the bonds between dead skin cells, removing surface build-up and promoting cell turnover for a visibly smoother, more refined texture.
Even Tone
Regular use helps reduce the appearance of dark spots and uneven pigmentation, promoting a more uniform, brighter-looking complexion over time.
Protect
Organic Cranberry and Lingonberry Extracts deliver Nordic antioxidant protection and Vitamin C to support renewing skin against environmental stressors.
About This Product
This leave-on exfoliating toner uses 5% Glycolic Acid — the smallest-molecule AHA — to effectively dissolve dead skin cell build-up at the surface, promoting faster cell renewal and improving both skin texture and tone. Sodium PCA and Betaine keep the formula hydrating rather than drying, which is key when using AHA actives regularly.
Organic Cranberry and Lingonberry Fruit Extracts add a Nordic antioxidant layer, helping to protect freshly renewed skin from environmental oxidative stress. Use a few times per week in the evening on clean, dry skin, and always apply SPF the following morning. Suitable for all skin types.
How to Use
- Apply to clean and dry skin in the evening.
- Use a few times per week, increasing frequency gradually.
- Do not rinse off — leave on as part of your routine.
- Avoid direct sun exposure after use.
- Always apply SPF the following morning.

Questions you might have.
What’s the difference between Glycolic Acid and Lactic Acid?
Glycolic Acid (AHA) is the smallest acid molecule in the AHA family, which means it penetrates the skin more quickly and efficiently — delivering faster, more visible results on texture and pigmentation. Lactic Acid is larger and penetrates more slowly, making it slightly gentler and better suited to those new to acid exfoliants or with drier skin. If you want effective results and your skin tolerates actives well, this Glycolic Toner is an excellent choice.
Do I need to rinse it off?
No — this is a leave-on formula. Apply to clean, dry skin in the evening and let it do its work overnight. Don’t rinse. Follow with your serum and moisturiser as normal. The key step is SPF the following morning to protect the newly renewed skin.
Can I use this if my skin is dry or sensitive?
Yes, but start slowly — once a week and build up. Glycolic Acid is more potent than Lactic Acid due to its smaller molecule size. The formula includes Sodium PCA and Betaine to minimise dryness, but if your skin is very sensitive, the AHA Peeling Concentrate with Lactic Acid may be a more comfortable starting point.
Can I use this with the Purifying Toner?
Not on the same evening. BHA (Salicylic Acid in the Purifying Toner) and AHA (Glycolic Acid here) are both actives — using them together can over-exfoliate and compromise your skin barrier. Alternate them on different evenings for best results: e.g. Purifying Toner in the morning, Glycolic Toner in the evening.
