The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner 100ml

The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner 100ml is a high-performance alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) toner designed to gently exfoliate the skin, remove dead skin cells, and promote a brighter, smoother, and more even-looking complexion. Powered by 7% Glycolic Acid, this lightweight exfoliating toner works beneath the skin’s surface to improve texture, reduce dullness, and enhance overall skin radiance. The formula is further enriched with hydrating amino acids, soothing botanical extracts, and moisturizing factors to deliver effective exfoliation while helping maintain skin comfort.

Whether your skin appears dull, rough, uneven, or prone to post-acne marks, The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner 100ml offers an easy way to support healthier-looking skin through regular chemical exfoliation. Suitable for most skin types except highly sensitive or compromised skin, this toner has become one of The Ordinary’s most popular exfoliating products for achieving a naturally glowing complexion.

Why Choose The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner?

Daily exposure to pollution, excess oil, makeup residue, and natural skin cell buildup can leave the complexion looking tired and uneven. Without regular exfoliation, dead skin cells accumulate on the skin’s surface, making pores appear larger while reducing the effectiveness of other skincare products.

The Ordinary Glycolic Acid provides gentle yet effective exfoliation by removing this buildup and encouraging healthy skin renewal. Unlike harsh physical scrubs that rely on friction, glycolic acid dissolves the bonds between dead skin cells, revealing fresher and smoother skin underneath.

Its balanced formulation delivers multiple skincare benefits while remaining lightweight enough to integrate into most evening skincare routines.

What Makes This Formula Unique?

The effectiveness of this toner comes from combining a proven concentration of glycolic acid with carefully selected hydrating and soothing ingredients that help support the skin barrier.

7% Glycolic Acid

Glycolic Acid is the primary active ingredient in this toner. As one of the most widely researched alpha hydroxy acids, it gently exfoliates the outer layer of the skin by loosening dead skin cells and promoting natural cell turnover.

With consistent use, glycolic acid may help improve:

• Rough skin texture
• Uneven skin tone
• Dull complexion
• Post-acne marks
• Sunspots
• Fine lines
• Enlarged-looking pores

Because glycolic acid has the smallest molecular size among AHAs, it penetrates efficiently into the skin for effective exfoliation.

Hyaluronic Acid

Sodium Hyaluronate, a form of Hyaluronic Acid, helps replenish moisture during the exfoliation process.

It helps:

• Maintain hydration
• Reduce feelings of dryness
• Improve skin softness
• Support a healthy moisture barrier

This allows the skin to remain comfortable even after regular exfoliation.

Rose Water

Rosa Damascena Flower Water provides soothing and refreshing properties that help balance the skin while reducing temporary redness after exfoliation.

Cornflower Water

Cornflower extract helps calm the skin and contributes additional soothing benefits, making the toner more comfortable for regular use.

Aloe Vera

Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Water delivers lightweight hydration while helping soothe freshly exfoliated skin.

Tasmanian Pepperberry Extract

Tasmanian Pepperberry is included to help reduce visible irritation commonly associated with acid-based exfoliating products.

This botanical ingredient also provides antioxidant support that helps defend the skin against environmental stress.

Amino Acids and Natural Moisturizing Factors

The formula contains several amino acids and Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMFs) that help strengthen the skin’s moisture balance and support a healthy-looking complexion.

How Does The Ordinary Glycolic Acid Work?

Healthy skin naturally sheds dead skin cells through a process known as cell turnover. However, this process slows over time due to aging and environmental factors, causing dead cells to accumulate on the skin’s surface.

The Ordinary Glycolic Acid works by breaking down the bonds between these dead cells, allowing them to be removed more efficiently. As new skin cells replace older ones, the complexion gradually becomes brighter, smoother, and more even.

With continued use, users often notice improvements in:

• Skin brightness
• Surface texture
• Overall smoothness
• Skin clarity
• Product absorption
• Visible pores

Chemical exfoliation also prepares the skin to better absorb serums, moisturizers, and other skincare products applied afterward.

Important Precautions

To ensure safe and effective use of The Ordinary Glycolic Acid, follow these precautions:

• Use only on healthy, unbroken skin.
• Avoid applying around the eyes.
• Do not use on irritated or compromised skin.
• Perform a patch test before first use.
• Discontinue use if excessive irritation occurs.
• Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
• Keep out of reach of children.

Because glycolic acid is an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA), your skin may become more sensitive to UV rays after use. Daily sunscreen is strongly recommended throughout the period of use.

Why Is a Patch Test Recommended?

A patch test helps identify potential skin sensitivity before incorporating a new exfoliating product into your routine.

To perform a patch test:

1. Apply a small amount of toner to a clean area of your inner forearm.
2. Allow the product to remain on the skin.
3. Observe the area for up to 24 hours.
4. If redness, itching, burning, blistering, or irritation occurs, discontinue use.

Performing a patch test helps minimize the risk of unwanted skin reactions.
