Glow Toner is an antioxidant-and-hyaluronic toner for dull, rough, uneven skin that needs refining after cleansing. It refines and preps the skin while boosting radiance — without the tight feel of old-style toners.
Swept over clean skin morning and evening, before your serum and moisturiser.
Key benefits
Refines after cleansing
A water-light toner that refines and preps the skin, boosting radiance after you cleanse.
Brightens with niacinamide
Niacinamide (vitamin B3) helps dull, uneven skin look fresher, brighter and more even in tone.
Gentle mandelic exfoliation
Mandelic acid smooths and refines the surface for a glass-skin glow, without the sting of harsher acids.
Comforting, never stripping
Amino acids, betaine and glycerin keep skin balanced, so it refines without the tight, stripped feel of old-style toners.
Preps for better absorption
Leaves a balanced surface so serums and moisturisers absorb more effectively.

Descriptive of the typical experience with consistent, twice-daily use. Individual results vary.
The science — niacinamide (vitamin B3)
In a 12-week double-blind, placebo-controlled split-face study (50 women), 5% topical niacinamide significantly improved hyperpigmented spots, red blotchiness, skin texture, fine lines and sallowness versus placebo. A separate controlled study found niacinamide significantly reduced hyperpigmentation and increased skin lightness from four weeks, and in laboratory testing cut pigment (melanosome) transfer by up to 68%.
Method: Bissett et al., Dermatol Surg 2005 / Int J Cosmet Sci 2004 (5% niacinamide, double-blind, placebo-controlled split-face, 12 weeks); Hakozaki et al., Br J Dermatol 2002 (niacinamide vs vehicle, plus laboratory melanosome-transfer assay).
Sweep over clean skin morning and evening, before your serum and moisturiser. Individual results may vary.

Loved & recommended
Modern toners should prep and refine, not strip — the astringent toners of the past did more harm than good. Balancing gentle refining actives with hyaluronic acid is the right modern approach, and it leaves skin genuinely more receptive to whatever follows.

Why it is recommended
