Powerful Yet Gentle AHA's

As you know, the liquid exfoliants on the market today containing AHA's tend to be harsh on the skin, and your clients may have a hard time using them regularly due to the irritation they cause.

A product that causes undue irritation when used is going to be damaging and ineffective in the long run. That's why we designed our Radiance Complex Toner to get your clients excellent results through powerful ingredients, while being far more gentle on the skin. But how can an AHA toner be powerful yet gentle at the same time? Let's dive into it.

What It Is

Radiance Complex Toner is a professional grade exfoliating AHA toner that utilizes our AHA-HydroX complex to give your clients brighter skin, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, as well as reducing the appearance of dark spots and hyper-pigmentation.

AHA’s are liquid exfoliants known for their ability to brighten and even skin tone. They work by breaking down the bonds holding dead skin cells to your skin, sloughing them off and exposing new brighter skin. This makes them excellent at reducing the appearance of sun damage, hyper-pigmentation and dark spots while also reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Why It Works

This product is an improvement on other AHA toners on the market due to these key reasons.

1. AHA-HydroX Provides Gentler AHA's

Our AHA-HydroX complex combines the fast acting and potent power of glycolic acid with other gentler AHA’s like lactic acid and mandelic acid. Glycolic acid is the smallest AHA meaning that is penetrates the deepest and acts the fastest, so clients love seeing the quick results. However glycolic acid is too irritating to use regularly in high concentrations. That's why we have combined it with latic acid and mendelic acid. Lactic acid is gentler and more hydrating, studies have also shown that it is more effective in reducing the apperance of sundamage. Mandelic acid promotes cell turnover, while being gentle on the skin.

2. Astaxanthin Provides Enhanced Results

Astaxanthin (pronounced “asta-xan-thin”) is a naturally occurring compound that is often referred to as nature's most powerful antioxidant, as it is far more powerful than Vitamin C or Vitamin E. This means that it provides even more protection for the skin, and is also known to reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and sun damage, as well as reducing inflammation. Since it is known for it's soothing, anti-inflammatory properties, your clients can use this product more often for better results than they would otherwise get.

How To Use It

This product is an exfoliant so it should be used after your cleanser but before any treatments.

Apply 3 to 4 pumps to a cotton pad and wipe your face thoroughly with it. Avoid contact with the eyes.

This product is a great addition to your client's routine. Since it removes pore-clogging dead skin cells, it will increase the skin’s ability to absorb the active products your client applies after it.

While this product is formulated to be less harsh, it is still powerful, so it should be used a maximum of once a day. A good place to start with clients is every second day, with an increase to daily for those with less sensitive skin and reduced application for those with more sensitive skin.

AHA's will cause some sensitivity to the sun, so your clients should apply at night and with a SPF. It should not be combined with Vitamin C or Retinoids in the same routine, so if your client is using one of these ensure they split these into separate morning and night routines. Also check to make sure your client is not using any other AHA products with it as well.
