Apple cider vinegar contains natural alpha-hydroxy acids, which work to slough off dead skin cells and lighten discolorations, including sun and age spots. This Clarifying Toner balances your skin’s pH, removes built-up oil and grime, and closes and tightens pores, reducing their size. This formula is beneficial for normal to oily, combination, and acne-prone skin types.
