STEP 2 TONERDay/Night BALANCING ANTI-IMPURITY SYSTEM
Prepare your skin for a more effective exfoliation
It has been said for ages toner works by restoring skin’s pH. If your cleanser is weakening your cutaneous barrier, you will need another product to restore the damage. For that reason, this cleanser and toner have an acidic pH of 5.5, just like your skin.
Balancing Anti-impurity System does not need to restore the pH because the cleanser does not unbalance it. This toner helps other ingredients to penetrate deeper within the skin in the following way:
With an acidic pH, increasing skin's permeability.
The addition of citric acid acts as a mild keratolytic, helping the Cleanser to remove dead skin cells, enhancing penetration.
Hamamelis Virginiana removes excess oil, controlling sebum production, and minimizing enlarged pores. To reduce the oily layer means more active ingredients will find their way towards the deep layers within the skin.
