description

Mario Badescu Glycolid Acid Toner speeds up the cell renewing process of the skin. As dead cells are sloughed off, the face reveals a fresh layer of skin that is smooth and radiant. It is also infused with a good amount of aloe vera that calms the skin. This toner also smoothens skin surface and blurs lines and wrinkles. Alcohol free.

I hated this. When I first purchased it I was very hopeful that it would work on my skin but all it did was just dry it like crazy. The skin on my nose started peeling , my face burned like crazy...

I’ve been using this toner for a couple of years. Definitely best toner I’ve ever used. Prevents breakouts and leaves skin very glowy in appearance. Not at all drying like many other toners I’ve...

I absolutely love this toner. I was leery of this product only having 2% glycolic acid, which is on the lower end, but it ended up being very effective. As long as you don't have a large amount...

I got this on a special for half price. So it was $9. Normally $18. I cannot say that it does anything at all. It doesn't even tingle or anything. Smells like rosewater, which is fine with me. It...

So I gave this a good try and used the whole bottle. But it just didn't help me much. To start, I have dry to normal sensitive skin and this was pretty darn tolerable even for me. I was careful...
