RAYA Calendula Astringent with AHA 8 oz (G-206) is a glycolic facial toner formulated for combination and partially oily skin types that are prone to break-outs. This product contains alpha hydroxy acids, specifically glycolic acid, which work to gently exfoliate the skin’s surface by loosening dead skin cells and promoting cell turnover. The inclusion of calendula extract, derived from marigold flowers, provides soothing properties that help calm irritated skin while supporting the toner’s astringent function.

Designed to help normalize the skin’s pH balance, this toner aims to create an environment less conducive to bacterial growth, which may reduce the frequency of break-outs. The alpha hydroxy acids in the formula assist in unclogging pores and refining skin texture, making it suitable for those seeking a non-drying toner that addresses excess oil without stripping the skin. The lightweight, water-based consistency allows for quick absorption, leaving the skin feeling refreshed and balanced.

This product is free from harsh alcohols and artificial fragrances, focusing instead on a blend of natural plant extracts and mild exfoliants. It is particularly suited for individuals with oily or combination skin who want to manage shine and congestion without over-drying. The 8 oz bottle offers a practical size for daily use, typically applied after cleansing with a cotton pad to the face and neck area. As with any AHA product, it is advisable to use sun protection during the day, as glycolic acid can increase sensitivity to sunlight. RAYA Calendula Astringent with AHA provides a straightforward approach to maintaining clearer skin through gentle chemical exfoliation and pH regulation.
