Pixi Beauty Clarity Tonic 25 ingredients
I think i've been purchasing this Toner since i started in skincare. It's very lightweight and perfect for my very oily skin. It provides a very gentle exfoliation (with BHA and AHA), so i can use it almost every day without irritating my face. Plus, it has a very mild and lovely smell, like something clean. I love it.
I bought this when i was too stingy to buy the paula's choice .. i loved it didnt break me out and kept my sfs cleans
It wasnt that life changing but it is a toner after all, no stinfy sensation
This is the best among the pixi toner collection bc it has no perfume or alcohol in it so ☝️
