"If you’re dealing with acne, congestion, or stubborn blackheads, Sal-C Toner is one of my go-to’s. It clears away dead skin cells before they can clog pores, helps keep oil under control, and leaves the skin smoother and brighter. My clients also love that it supports both acne care and anti-aging in one step."

Ideal for Oily, Congested, or Blemish-Prone Skin

This toner is especially beneficial for skin prone to blackheads and non-inflamed acne. It contains both salicylic acid and vitamin C to help clear pore buildup, brighten dull areas, and reduce the appearance of uneven pigmentation.

Salicylic Acid

BHA that penetrates into pores to clear out debris, making it one of the most effective ingredients for treating acne and congestion.

Vitamin C

Potent antioxidant that protects the skin from free radical damage, supports collagen production, and improves overall skin tone and radiance.

Niacinamide

Multi-tasking skincare ingredient that helps improve skin tone, texture, and barrier function.

Enhances Treatment Absorption

By removing excess oil and dead skin buildup, Sal-C Toner helps your active serums and moisturizers absorb more effectively. It also balances the skin’s surface, making it a smart prep step before applying benzoyl peroxide or mandelic serum.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who should use Sal-C Toner?

This toner is best for oily, congested, or acne-prone skin—especially if you experience blackheads or dull, rough texture. It’s a great fit for non-inflamed acne types and those looking to boost exfoliation without overdoing it.

What does the toner do for acne-prone skin?

Sal-C Toner helps remove dead skin cells and excess oil while clearing out pore congestion. The salicylic acid exfoliates inside the pores, and the vitamin C supports a more even skin tone and brighter complexion.

Can I use this with other exfoliants?

Yes, but it’s important not to layer too many exfoliants at once. If you're already using mandelic acid or benzoyl peroxide, alternate usage or consult a skincare pro for a routine that keeps your skin balanced and healthy.

How often should I use it?

Most people use Sal-C Toner once daily after cleansing. If your skin is oily and tolerant, it can be used morning and night. If you’re dry or sensitive, start with a few times a week and build up slowly.

Will it dry out my skin?

Sal-C Toner is alcohol-free and includes sodium PCA to help retain moisture. Still, it is exfoliating—so pairing it with a hydrating serum or moisturizer is key to avoiding dryness or irritation.
