Description
Gaia Organics Alpha-hydroxy fruit acid toners are a vital part of the synergistic way in the way the range has been formulated. The toners form a vital part of the skin's cleansing and moisturizing process, and are essential for each skin type. The main purpose of the toners is to allow the top dead layer of skin to be sloughed off in a natural and non-harmful way. The toners also act as an exfoliator, gently removing the top layer of skin and enhancing new cellular regeneration. The Gaia Gold Range is suitable for mature (40+) skin types (dry/dehydrated/sun damage).
