  • Multi-acid formula for dynamic effects
    Contains an 8% cocktail of Glycolic, Salicylic, Lactic, and Acetic acids in opposed to one-dimensional single acid exfoliators in the market

After cleansing, shake well and dispense onto a cotton pad and gently smooth over the face. Reapply as needed on skin that is dull, rough, excessively oily and(or) heavily congested.

When using product, wear an at least SPF 30 sunscreen during the day and reapply regularly. Discontinue use if prolonged exposure under the sun is to be carried out the next day. Do not use it on damaged skin. Consult a physician on usage before and after invasive professional treatments.

Toners are often the most overlooked category of skin care products yet can boost the efficacy of an entire skincare routine when chosen right.

For dull, congestion-prone, and breakout-prone skin, choosing a toner with exfoliating actions and using on alternate nights or as needed can optimize the absorption of next products in line, as well as revealing smoother skin and preventing congestion. As exfoliants each have specific functions, it is best to study which acids and percentages cater to your needs, or choose a multi-acid formula if you’d like to gently yet sustainably address multiple skin problems.

Q&A

What skin types and problems is Deep Toner product suitable for? Is it suitable for sensitive and dehydrated skins?

Although this product is more suitable for oil-prone skin, it can also balance regions of excess sebum production of combination skin. Since excess oil is commonly associated with congestion and acne inflammation, any skin type except sensitive can benefit from using Deep Toner. For dry-prone or dehydrated skin that are non-sensitive, Deep Toner can be used after dilution with Just Toner or used only on problem areas to minimize potential irritation to other areas not inflicted with the skin problem. For dull skins, dilute before use and only apply on areas that are rough and dull.
Do not use on wounded skin.

Is it suitable for sensitive or pregnant skin?

This product contains a cocktail of acid ingredients for a total of 8% acidic component. Although the formula is rather gentle and infused with plant extracts to confer additional soothing effects, if skin is extremely delicate with sensitive symptoms, it is best to wait until sensitivity and irritation have subsided before use. For pregnant women, avoid using this product in the first trimester to reduce potential skin irritation. From month 3 and onwards, pregnant women can use it with care. This product can be used during breastfeeding.

What other products should not be used with this?

In general, this product can be used with any Skin Need products based on skin type and skin concerns. If you are currently using prescription skincare products, please follow your doctor's advice and use with caution.

Can this product be used every day?

If you have extremely oily and congested, you may use the product on a daily basis, twice a day. Once skin condition is stabilized with improved moisture and sebum balance, you may use Deep Toner during the evening only and pair with either Light Toner or Just Toner during the day.
