Toning Lotions

Sephora customers often prefer the following products when searching for Toning Lotions.

Toning lotions help remove any remaining impurities or traces of makeup while also balancing the skin's pH levels. They typically contain ingredients like witch hazel, rose water, or glycolic acid to exfoliate and refine the skin's texture gently. Toning lotions are beneficial for various skin types and can leave the skin feeling refreshed, toned, and ready for serums or moisturizers. Regular use of toning lotions can contribute to a smoother, more even complexion and promote better absorption of subsequent skincare products.

Full disclosure, I began using this clarifying lotion within the past month, so I never used the 'Original Formula' to which other reviewers refer. ...Usually the low amount wouldn't do too much for my oily/acne skin, but now I'm using Differin and this is working as an AM toning solution. In terms of "exfoliation," this is not going to do what a toner with AHA will, which is give immediate smoothing.
