Gentle Exfoliating Glycolic Solution 8% with Aloe for Smoother, Brighter Skin
8% glycolic acid, balanced with botanicals. The concentration that actually resurfaces.
Glycolic works. This concentration proves it.
Most glycolic toners are underdosed — 5% or below is enough to market as an AHA, not enough to move the needle on texture or tone. This one is 8%, which is where you start to see real change. What I appreciate about this formula is the balance: aloe, Roman chamomile, and calendula are doing real work alongside the acid — not just listed for optics. Shea Radiance sources from women-run cooperatives in West Africa, and the formula reflects that same intentionality. This is a toner I'd actually put in a routine.
- You have dull, rough, or uneven skin tone
- You're dealing with dark spots, post-acne marks, or hyperpigmentation
- You want an exfoliating toner that doesn't strip or irritate
- You're ready to be consistent — this one rewards the routine
This 8% glycolic acid exfoliating toner helps smooth texture and brighten the look of dull, uneven skin. Aloe vera, chamomile and calendula balance the active exfoliation with soothing hydration, so you can gently resurface after cleansing, sweep away the last traces of makeup and reveal a softer, more radiant complexion over time.
A Brightening, exfoliating and resurfacing toner with soothing and hydrating Aloe Vera to reveal smoother more radiant skin. Renews skin after cleansing and can also help remove the last traces of makeup.
What's inside.
Why it's there.
The smallest AHA molecule, which means it penetrates efficiently and delivers real results at the surface and just below it. At 8%, it dissolves the bonds between dead skin cells, accelerates turnover, and over time visibly fades dark spots and smooths texture. One of the most well-researched actives in skincare.
Keeps the formula from feeling harsh. Aloe's polysaccharides hydrate while its natural compounds calm any irritation triggered by the acid. It's the reason this toner works for sensitive skin types that normally can't tolerate glycolic — it's not decorative, it's functional.
Both sourced as certified organic extracts. Chamomile's active compounds reduce redness and skin reactivity. Calendula is wound-healing and anti-inflammatory. Together they complete the formula's core logic: exfoliate effectively, then immediately calm what you've activated.
What it does.
An 8% glycolic acid toner that resurfaces, brightens, and clears the buildup that keeps skin looking flat. Aloe vera, Roman chamomile, and calendula buffer the exfoliation so it works without irritating. Panthenol supports recovery after. Use it in the evening after cleansing — results build over two to three weeks of regular use.
