A targeted, liquid toner designed to deeply cleanse pores, reduce their appearance, and prevent congestion. This dual-formula approach lets you customize your exfoliation based on your skin's needs and sensitivity.
Not all pores are created equal, and neither is exfoliation. Our Pore Perfect Toner is offered in two clinically-formulated versions to deliver precise pore care. Whether you need the deep, oil-cutting power of Salicylic Acid (BHA) or the gentle, surface-smoothing action of Mandelic Acid (AHA), both toners work to unclog impurities, refine skin texture, and promote a clear, balanced complexion without stripping the skin.
How to Choose Your Formula:
Pore Perfect Toner (Salicylic Acid Formula)
* Best For: Oily, combination, and acne-prone skin. Those struggling with blackheads, whiteheads, and visibly congested pores.
* Key Action:
Salicylic Acid (BHA) is oil-soluble, allowing it to dive deep into pores to dissolve excess sebum and dead skin cells, effectively clearing and preventing clogs [1]. Grape Seed Extract provides antioxidant protection to support skin health.
At low concentrations (we use 0.49%), topical use of salicylic acid has been approved by The American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology as pregnancy-safe.
Precautions: If you have an aspirin allergy you may not be able to use this product, try a sample size first! If you experience sensitivity, we have an alternative formula using mandelic acid (an alpha hydroxy aka AHA) you can try (see the salicylate-free Sensitive version below).
Pore Perfect Toner Sensitive (Mandelic Acid Formula)
* Best For: Sensitive, dry, or rosacea-prone skin. Those who find salicylic acid too drying or irritating, or who are allergic to aspirin/salicylates.
* Key Action:
Mandelic Acid (AHA) has a larger molecule size, providing a slower, gentler exfoliation that is ideal for reactive skin. It effectively smooths surface texture and clarifies pores with minimal irritation [2]. Strawberry Extract offers natural fruit enzymes and antioxidants to brighten and refresh.
Shared Benefits & Ingredients:
* Hydrates & Soothes: Both formulas feature Sodium Hyaluronate for lightweight hydration.
* Non-Stripping & Balanced: pH-adjusted for efficacy and gentleness. Free from fragrance, gluten, and essential oils.
* How to Use: After cleansing, saturate a reusable cotton pad and gently sweep across the entire face, focusing on the T-zone and areas of concern. Avoid the immediate eye area. Use 3-4 times per week, building frequency as tolerated. **Always follow with sunscreen during the day.**
This product is gentle enough for daily use and can be used along with other exfoliants. For example, if you have combination skin, you may want to use our Glow Toner as well.
Always use a daytime SPF 20+ when using acid exfoliants to prevent sunburn.
