This 7% toning solution offers mild exfoliation for improved skin radiance and visible clarity, while also improving the appearance of skin texture with continued use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis formula contains a studied Tasmanian Pepperberry derivative to provide comforting benefits to the skin. It is further supported with the inclusion of ginseng root and aloe vera for both visible radiance and soothing benefits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pH of this formula is approximately 3.6 and Glycolic Acid has a pKa of 3.6. The pKa is the most important aspect to consider when formulating with acids as it implies acid availability. When pKa is close to pH, there is an ideal balance between salt and acidity, maximising the effectiveness of the acid and reducing the potential of developing irritation. Higher pH values in such a case would increase the concentration of salt, which counter-intuitively would make the formula even more irritating than if the formula was more acidic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGood to know: This formula should not be used on sensitive, peeling or compromised skin. Please refer to additional sun protection notes and other warnings in provided Directions. While exfoliating acids can result in quick visible benefits, we generally suggest indirect forms of skin exfoliation for a gentler approach.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreviously Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormulation: Liquid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeauty effect: Brightening, Smoothing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApplication method: Cotton Pad, Cotton Wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: The Ordinary\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSkin type: Combination, Dry, Normal, Oily, Sensitive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of origin: Canada\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree from: Chemical SPF Free, Mineral Oil Free, Paraben Free, Plastic Free, Silicone Free, Sulphate Free\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolume: 240ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eKey ingredients: AHA\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSuitable for vegans\/vegetarians: Suitable For Vegans, Suitable For Vegetarians\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIngredients: Aqua (Water), Glycolic Acid, Rosa damascena flower water, Centaurea cyanus flower water, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Water, Propanediol, Glycerin, Triethanolamine, Aminomethyl Propanol, Panax Ginseng Root Extract, Tasmannia Lanceolata Fruit\/Leaf Extract, Aspartic Acid, Alanine, Glycine, Serine, Valine, Isoleucine, Proline, Threonine, Histidine, Phenylalanine, Glutamic Acid, Arginine, PCA, Sodium PCA, Sodium Lactate, Fructose, Glucose, Sucrose, Urea, Hexyl Nicotinate, Dextrin, Citric Acid, Polysorbate 20, Gellan Gum, Trisodium Ethylenediamine Disuccinate, Sodium Chloride, Hexylene Glycol, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate, 1,2-Hexanediol, Caprylyl Glycol.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"John Lewis","offers":[{"title":"100ml","offer_id":48336769482990,"sku":"STO-ITEM-2026-327186","price":14.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"240ml","offer_id":48336769515758,"sku":"STO-ITEM-2026-327187","price":20.94,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/0125\/9183\/files\/240905013.webp?v=1784290843","url":"https:\/\/mcgrocer.com\/products\/the-ordinary-glycolic-acid-7-exfoliating-toner-240ml-2026327185","provider":"McGrocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
