If you hear the word “toner” and envision a blue bottle of Sea Breeze Astringent, I totally get why you would steer clear of toners. The options of our youth were drying and irritating at best, or downright painful at their worst. Needless to say, it took overcoming some teenage skin trauma to try them again as an adult. Thankfully, the toners of today are nothing like the 90’s, instead they’re, dare I say, magical for glowing, clear skin.
The TL;DR on Exfoliating Toners
One category clearly buzzing among customers is exfoliating toners. Exfoliating toners are unlike other exfoliators in that they’re liquid or gel-like (rather than a cream or a scrub) typically formulated with a combination of pH-balancing ingredients, acids and humectants. Combined, these ingredients help to hydrate and soothe skin, remove dead skin cells, clear out pores and even out tone.
One quick swipe of an exfoliating toner does some major heavy lifting on the road to glowy skin. If you’re ready to test the toner waters, one standout is TULA’s best-selling Secret Solution Pro-Glycolic 10% Resurfacing Treatment Toner. The alcohol-free formula uses soothing probiotics, exfoliating glycolic acid, hydrating hyaluronic acid and antioxidant-rich blueberry and snow mushroom to gently kickstart skin’s surface renewal process.
Because the formula combines nourishing ingredients with the traditional exfoliators expected in toner, it’s suitable for and well-tolerated by most skin types, including oily, combination, mature, dry and blemish-prone skin, per the brand. Results include a smoother, more even-toned, radiant complexion that’s perfectly balanced and prepped to absorb additional skin care.
Why Shoppers Love TULA’s Secret Solution Toner
Shoppers with dry skin swear by it; it’s the “holy grail of glow products,” said one customer. Other reviewers said skin feels “clean but not dry,” “so hydrated,” “really refreshed,” and “smoother and tighter” overall. “I really like how this makes my face feel,” shared one customer with “very sensitive” skin. A second struggling with “clogged pores and cystic acne” said the toner “keeps acne at bay without drying out or causing redness.” A third shopper swapped out their pricier toner after they TULA’s erased their “dark acne spots” after one week. “I’m addicted,” wrote another fan before adding, “the effects over time is akin to professional skin resurfacing.”
