Ingredients
Key Ingredients:
- Glycolic Acid: A type of Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA), glycolic acid effectively works on the upper layers of the skin to strip away dead skin cells. It also encourages skin to retain moisture, delivering hydration benefits. An ideal ingredient when treating hyperpigmentation, glycolic acid helps in reversing effects of sun damage. With its small molecular size, it penetrates skin easily, removing excess skin cells and making pores appear smaller. With its dual exfoliating and hydration properties, it provides better skin texture, brighter skin and reduced dark spots and wrinkles.
- Apple Cider Vinegar: Derived from apples through a fermentation process, apple cider vinegar or ACV has a naturally acidic pH that can help balance the pH levels of your skin, keeping it functioning optimally. Rich in malic acid, ACV gently exfoliates and unclogs pores, working well on acne-prone skin and reducing dark spots and hyperpigmentation.
- Aloe Vera Leaf Extract: A deeply hydrating humectant, aloe vera extract is one of the most widely used herbal remedies for a variety of skin conditions. An excellent moisturizer, it has cooling properties that help calm skin down and retain its moisture, improving its overall elasticity. It is also effective in preventing and removing bacteria build-up, reducing acne and healing scars and blemishes.
- Hyaluronic Acid: Hyaluronic acid is naturally occurring in the connective tissue throughout our bodies, with 50% of it existing only in our skin. It holds 1000 times its weight in water and provides significant, long-lasting hydration at a cellular level.
- Turmeric Oil: Extracted from the root of the turmeric plant, turmeric essential oil has antibacterial and antifungal properties. Loaded with antioxidants, it helps protect skin against free radicals, prevent breakouts and rejuvenate skin, giving it a healthy glow.

Toners have come a long way and so have you! The perfect quick hit of hydration and clarification, toners bring your skin back to its natural acidic state, ready to absorb the goodness of other skin products. With gently exfoliating glycolic acid and pH balancing apple cider vinegar, the Neemli Naturals Glycolic Acid & Apple Cider Vinegar Exfoliating Toner is a potent clarifying agent that deeply cleans pores and sweeps away excess oil to give you a smoother, brighter and more radiant look.
The second step in a good, basic skincare routine, toning is a process of quickly absorbing excess dirt, impurities and leftover makeup traces. It brings the skin back to its acidic state by removing dead cells off your skin surface. With the use of a toner, one can better prep their pores to absorb skin-beneficial ingredients from moisturizers or serums applied after its use. Neemli's Glycolic Acid & Apple Cider Vinegar Exfoliating Toner helps clear accumulated dirt and debris through an exfoliating process, clarifying skin and balancing its pH levels. Among the Alpha-Hydroxy Acids or AHAs, glycolic acid has the unique ability to go deeper into the skin, promoting skin cell renewal by effectively exfoliating the upper layers of the skin. A natural astringent, apple cider vinegar helps increase the blood flow to the skin, minimizing the appearance of pores. It also helps balance the skin's pH to keep it functioning optimally and fighting acne-causing bacteria. This potent mix of ingredients is balanced by the calming properties of aloe vera, making this toner an effective beauty tool to retexturize skin with an added glow.
Key Benefits:
- Balances pH levels: The combination of ingredients in this toner work to balance your skin's pH level. This regulates the skin's oil production and moisture levels, balancing dry, oily or combination skin. Apple cider vinegar works as a natural astringent, balancing the skin's pH while glycolic acid balances these levels through the day.
- Improves overall skin appearance: This toner helps in giving your skin a 'double cleanse' to clear remnants of makeup, grime and dead skin cells. Apple cider vinegar helps in exfoliating the skin, smoothing out and improving skin texture while absorbing excess oil. With its skin-renewing properties, glycolic acid helps smooth fine wrinkles, improving skin tone. It also helps plump the skin while boosting hydration levels.
- Fights acne and scars: Glycolic acid helps clear out pores preventing blockages, blackheads and inflamed breakouts. The acetic acid in apple cider vinegar has antibacterial properties that help destroy the bacteria that cause acne. Its exfoliating properties also take off the layers of dead skin, reducing the appearance of acne scars over time and getting rid of hyperpigmentation.
