Refresh AHA BHA Vitamin C Daily Toner

COSRX Refresh Aha Bha Vitamin C Daily Toner is formulated with GOLDEN-RX COMPLEX™ (comprised of Actinidia Chinensis (Kiwi) Fruit Extract and Hylocereus Undatus Fruit Extract), this skin-revitalizing daily toner contains chemical exfoliants (AHA and BHA) and Vitamin C to improve the skin’s texture and tone to leave dull skin refined and radiant. 

BHAs are oil soluble. They not only work on the skin’s surface, but also penetrate deeper and unclog pores and treat blemishes. This is why BHAs are preferred for those with normal to oily and clogged skin. BHAs have natural skin-calming properties, as well as anti-inflammatory and antibacterial activities and therefore can benefit those prone to redness and rosacea.

• People with an Aspirin will react poorly to the BHA in this product (betaine salicylate). Avoid using this product if you have an Aspirin allergy.

AHAs are humectants, meaning they can retain moisture, hence they are preferred for dry and damaged skin. AHAs are derived from natural substances. Combining these two forms of exfoliating will help to target blemishes without overdrying the skin.

Ingredients we love:

• Niacinamide: Prevents the effects of aging in the skin by stimulating the synthesis of ceramides, improving the skin barrier, fading dark spots en diminishing fine lines and wrinkles.
• Panthenol: A provitamin with moisturizing, hydrating abilities, that has anti-inflammatory and protective properties. Helps prevent irritation.
• Ascorbyl Glucoside: Stable, easier formulated derivative of Vitamin C that has comparable benefits for skin. A powerful antioxidant that boosts collagen levels and fades hyperpigmentation.

The toner has a watery and light-weight texture that is suitable for all skin types.
