Product Information
Starring hero ingredient zinc pca, SKINICIAN’s Purifying Toner works to soothe and refresh oily and acne-prone skin, while reducing breakouts, redness and excess oil – making it the perfect toner for acne and other related concerns.
This skin-reviving tonic has been formulated to leave oily skin clear and matte, thanks to its secret weapon zinc pca (short for zinc pyrrolidone carboxylic acid), which regulates oil production and keeps shine to a minimum. Its concentrated formula also contains nourishing amino acids that work to reduce any pigmentation caused by acne scars, while brightening Vitamin C helps to reduce blemishes by 30%, by battling acne-causing bacteria. A few simple spritzes are enough to give your skin everything it needs to stay healthy and happy, while keeping breakouts at bay. Skin is left looking and feeling calm, with shine and redness reduced – and if you use this consistently over time, you’ll start to see fewer breakouts too.
“Acne and spots don’t just affect teenagers – more and more adults are getting it too, which is why we created the Purifying range to stop blemishes in their tracks. This toner can be used throughout the day and is the perfect pick-me-up for acne-prone, inflamed and oily skin. I wanted it to be formulated with zinc pca as this is renowned for balancing the skin’s oil production, so acne or a shiny T-Zone are no longer the bane of your life!” – Hilary McMurray, Co-founder SKINICIAN
