This guide is for individuals seeking to improve skin radiance and even skin tone through gentle exfoliation. The key benefit is enhanced skin brightness and smoother texture with regular use. A caveat is that it's not recommended for sensitive, peeling, or compromised skin. The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution is a multi-functional formula designed to mildly exfoliate the skin, revealing a brighter complexion and visibly evening out tone. It features 7% Glycolic Acid to target fine lines, wrinkles, and radiance, while also offering benefits for the scalp. Key ingredients include Tasmanian Pepperberry, aloe, and ginseng to soothe and hydrate.

Yes, it is essential to use sun protection during the day, as exfoliating ingredients can increase sun sensitivity.
While primarily formulated for the face and scalp, the exfoliating benefits could potentially apply to other areas. However, patch testing is highly recommended, and caution should be exercised, especially on sensitive body areas.
Rinse thoroughly with water immediately if contact with eyes occurs. Avoid direct contact with the eye area during application.
Results vary, but with consistent daily use, improvements in skin radiance and tone may become visible within a few weeks.
Reduce frequency of application to every other day or less. Ensure you are avoiding the eye area and not applying to broken skin. Always follow with a moisturizer. If irritation persists, discontinue use.
Ensure you are applying it consistently once daily as recommended. Allow time for results, as significant changes may take several weeks. Verify that you are not using other strong exfoliants simultaneously which could be counteracting the effect or causing irritation.
You may be using too much product, or your scalp might be sensitive. Try applying a smaller amount and ensure it is properly diluted with scalp oils. Rinse off after a short period if discomfort occurs.
Application: After cleansing, saturate a cotton pad with the toning solution and swipe across the face, avoiding the eye area. Alternatively, pour a few drops directly onto the scalp and massage. Apply once daily, preferably in the evening.
Compatibility: This product is suitable for most skin types seeking exfoliation but is not recommended for sensitive, peeling, or compromised skin. It can be layered with other skincare products, but introduce it slowly into your routine to avoid irritation. Always use sun protection during the day.
Care: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the cap is tightly closed after each use to prevent evaporation and maintain product integrity. Keep out of reach of children.
