🧬 Key ingredients
Gluconolactone – PHA
A gentle exfoliating acid that gradually helps remove dead skin cells and excess sebum. PHAs also contribute to hydration support due to their water-binding properties alongside exfoliation.
Centella Asiatica Extract
A defining ingredient of the SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella product line. Complements gentle exfoliation with care that supports skin comfort and a more balanced feel.
Betaine
A moisture-binding ingredient that helps maintain the skin’s water balance and provides a softer, more comfortable feel.
Niacinamide
A versatile form of vitamin B3 that supports a more even, radiant complexion and proper skin barrier function.
Hyaluronic Acid
A moisture-binding ingredient that helps maintain hydration and a softer, plumper skin feel.
Adenosine
A skincare active that supports smoother, more elastic and well-cared-for skin appearance in the formula.
🎯 Who is it recommended for?
Particularly suitable for:
- uneven, rougher skin texture,
- dull, lacklustre skin,
- normal and combination skin,
- drier skin requiring gentle exfoliation,
- sensitive-prone skin if you are looking for a mild PHA toner,
- skin prone to pore congestion in your routine,
- those wanting a more everyday exfoliating step instead of stronger AHA or BHA toners.
🧴 How to use
After cleansing, apply an appropriate amount directly to your palm or a cotton pad, then gently spread over the skin and pat in.
Follow with serum or ampoule, then moisturiser.
The manufacturer developed it for daily use, but if your skin is not yet accustomed to exfoliating acids, feel free to adjust the frequency according to your comfort. Finish your morning routine with sunscreen.
💗 Why do we love it?
Because it is truly a gentle exfoliating toner, not a strong acid treatment disguised as a toner. The gradual surface exfoliation by PHA is accompanied by centella, betaine and hyaluronic acid, so it supports smoother skin texture while also caring for hydration.
It is a good choice if you want to regularly address dead skin cells, dull complexion and uneven texture but do not want to incorporate intensive AHA or BHA products into every routine.
❓ Q&A
What exfoliating acid does it contain?
Gluconolactone, which is a PHA. This is among the gentler types of exfoliating acids and also has moisture-binding properties.
Can it be used daily?
Yes. SKIN1004 positions it specifically as a mild PHA toner for daily use. However, for more sensitive or acid-unaccustomed skin, it is advisable to adjust frequency according to personal tolerance.
Does it contain BHA?
No. The exfoliating active in the formula is Gluconolactone, i.e. PHA.
Is it suitable for acne-prone skin?
The formula is non-comedogenic tested and the manufacturer indicates it is suitable for acne-prone skin. PHA also supports removal of excess sebum and dead skin cells.
How is it different from the Poremizing Clear Toner?
The Centella Toning Toner is a much simpler, gentler exfoliant: it is based on PHA and focuses more strongly on hydration and comfortable daily use. The Poremizing Clear Toner is a more targeted choice for sebum, pores and uneven texture with a combination of AHA, BHA, PHA and LHA.
