Dot & Key CicaClarifying Toner Calming Skin | For Acne, Oily & Sensitive Skin | Fades Acne Scars & Dark Spots | 150ml

Section 1: About the Product

The Dot & Key Cica Calming Skin Clarifying Toner is a super-gentle antidote designed to restore balance to oily, acne-prone, and sensitive skin. Unlike harsh astringents that strip the skin, this alcohol-free toner blends the “green goodness” of soothing botanicals with the active potency of clinical ingredients. It is formulated to heal, soothe, and hydrate while simultaneously lifting dirt and oil to keep acne at bay.

This toner features a unique blend of Cica (Centella Asiatica) and Green Tea to fight acne-causing bacteria and calm redness. It is supercharged with Niacinamide to fade stubborn dark spots and acne scars over time. To refine skin texture, it uses a mild dose of Lactic Acid and Glycolic Acid to gently exfoliate dead skin cells and unclog pores. With a balanced pH of 4.1, it strengthens the skin barrier and minimizes the appearance of pores, ensuring your skin looks smooth, clarified, and healthy.
