Learn more about Citric AcidSodium Citrate is the sodium salts of citric acid. In skincare, it is used to alter pH levels and acts as a preservative.
Sodium Citrate helps maintain the pH of a product. Normal pH level of skin is slightly acidic (~4.75-5.5). The acidity of our skin is maintained by our glands and skin biome. Being slightly acidic allows our skin to create an "acid mantle". This acid mantle is a thin barrier that protects our skin from bacteria and contaminants.
Sodium Citrate is a chelating agent. It neutralizes metal ions from water and prevents them from binding to other ingredients. This ensures the other ingredients will not be altered.

I just finished this as I’m writing this review. First, very hydrating and I love the smell. It’s nothing strong though. It’s full of essence and big the pads are big. Using it daily (only morning) lasted me for about 2-3 months which is great. In terms of skin, I feel like it does clear up some blemishes but takes time. You have to use it everyday but don’t expect a miracle overnight.I use it as a toner in the day (do not use this with a toner as it can be a bit heavy for oily acne people) and then layer my AXIS-Y correcting spot treatment on top. It does a great job. It makes you feel fresh and good. would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a daily pick me up.
A tip with any toner pads, is to use it as a sheet mask and leave it on for 4-5 minutes.
