St. Ives – Apricot AHA Exfoliating Toner – 197.5ml

Reveal smoother, brighter skin with this fruit‑infused toner formulated for combination and dull skin. Powered by 5% glycolic acid (AHA), it gently sloughs away dead cells to refresh and clarify the complexion. Enriched with St. Ives signature apricot extract, it soothes, softens, and delivers a lush, uplifting fragrance. The formula is vegan, dermatologist-tested, paraben‑free, non-comedogenic, and composed of more than 90% naturally derived ingredients.

How to Use

Apply after cleansing: soak a cotton round with the toner and sweep across your face and neck, avoiding the eye area. No need to rinse. Use once daily, ideally in the evening, and follow with your favorite moisturizer. Always wear sunscreen during the day, as AHAs can increase skin sensitivity to sunlight.
