Everyday BHA cleanser for combination skin. Not stripping if you don't over-linger.

7.5/10 · tonerClear Skin Tonic
Alpha-H's Clear Skin Tonic is the BHA counterpart to the brand's iconic Liquid Gold (which is AHA). Where Liquid Gold uses glycolic acid to resurface and brighten, the Clear Skin Tonic uses salicylic acid to go inside the pore — BHA is oil-soluble, so it penetrates into sebaceous follicles where glycolic acid can't reach. The supporting cast is built for acne-prone skin: tea tree oil (Melaleuca alternifolia) for antibacterial action, eucalyptus for astringency, licorice root extract (Glycyrrhiza glabra) to calm post-inflammatory redness, and cucumber to cool. The alcohol denat. base makes this a true astringent tonic — it strips surface oil effectively but can be drying for combination skin that's only oily in the T-zone. Best used as an evening toner 2-3 times per week (not daily) for oily and acne-prone skin, alternating with Liquid Gold for a comprehensive AHA+BHA chemical exfoliation strategy.
