Description
Exuviance HydraPrep pH Balance Toner is a skin-balancing facial toner formulated to hydrate, refresh and help restore the skin’s natural pH. It combines Glycolic Acid (AHA), Gluconolactone (PHA) and conditioning botanical extracts to gently exfoliate, refine texture and prepare normal to combination skin for subsequent Exuviance skincare steps. Dermatologist and allergy tested, this lightweight liquid toner helps improve clarity, tone and radiance while leaving skin comfortably hydrated.
