Pore Minimising Tonic

Pore Minimising Tonic™ is a refreshing tonic that transforms skin texture and minimizes pores. Formulated with alpha and beta hydroxy acids, this purifying facial treatment deeply cleanses, improves tone and texture, and controls pore size. Its use post-cleansing leaves the skin soft, radiant, and with a naturally healthy glow. Ideal for prepping the skin and achieving a flawless base.

Key Benefits

• Reduce Pores

  A refreshing tonic solution that easily spreads across the skin and absorbs instantly. It uses AHAs to control oil production and decongest the skin, allowing pores to return to their original size.

• Hydration

  With a natural green mint fragrance, the two-day tonic is a long-lasting solution for enlarged pores. The skin feels hydrated thanks to hyaluronic acid, which provides moisture while looking smooth, refined, and visibly younger.

• Antioxidant Protection

  Alpha-lipoic acid also provides essential antioxidant protection, preventing enlarged pores caused by the natural aging of the skin.

How It Works

Exfoliation is absolutely vital for achieving a youthful, clear complexion that is visibly pore-free. Pore Minimising Tonic™ harnesses the power of not one, but two exceptional exfoliating acids to clear out pore residue. When pores become clogged due to a mix of sebum and dead skin cells, they can often enlarge, resulting in a more noticeable appearance on the complexion. 

1. Mandelic and lactic acids promote a smooth, even skin texture, ideal for flawless makeup application. 
2. Red clover extract addresses the other main cause of enlarged pores: excess sebum production, blocking the enzyme that produces it to regulate skin oil levels. Deformed pores can also result from the aging process as the skin begins to sag and lose elasticity. 
3. Alpha-lipoic acid provides essential antioxidant protection to prevent premature aging caused by free radicals. This keeps collagen and elastin intact and leaves pores tight and youthful-looking.

How to Use

1. In the morning and evening, apply the Pore Minimising Tonic to a facial pad and spread it over the face and neck, avoiding the delicate eye area.
2. A patch test is recommended before use.

Key Ingredients

Red Clover Extract

Red clover extract, an exceptional botanical pore minimizer, helps reduce sebum production, enhances cell renewal, and acts as a natural astringent to minimize the appearance of pores.

L-Mandelic Acid

A gently exfoliating AHA with BHA power, the chiral L-mandelic acid can work both on the surface of the skin and inside the pores for deep yet gentle exfoliation.

L-Lactic Acid

A gentle AHA that gently exfoliates the upper layers of the skin while deeply hydrating it for a nourished and cared-for complexion. 

Alpha-lipoic Acid 

ALA, a powerful antioxidant, protects the skin from premature aging caused by the environment and UV rays. It is capable of preventing the degradation of collagen and elastin to protect the delicate structure of the skin, resulting in a firmer complexion and smoother pores.

The Science Behind

MANDELIC ACID

Mandelic acid, often derived from almonds, is an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that also has properties of beta hydroxy acids (BHA). This acid, soluble in both water and oil, penetrates the pores and breaks down sebum blockages and skin cells, while also acting on the upper surface to gently remove dead skin. This way, the complexion is revived and the pores are decongested. Expression lines are smoothed out and a luminous glow is achieved. Being a large molecule, mandelic acid cannot penetrate as deeply as glycolic acid, which means it is a much better option for sensitive skin.
