Glow Recipe PHA + BHA Face Toner - Limited Edition Pride, Watermelon Glow, Hydrating Pore-Minimizer (150ml)

Glow Recipe Limited Edition Pride PHA + BHA Face Toner is a gentle exfoliating and hydrating toner that helps smooth texture, reduce the look of pores, and lock in moisture with watermelon extract, hyaluronic acid, PHAs and BHAs.

This limited edition toner from Glow Recipe updates the brand’s bestselling Watermelon Glow formula with purposeful packaging celebrating the LGBTQIA+ community while keeping the same multi-action skincare benefits. Formulated for regular use, it blends polyhydroxy acids (PHAs) for gentle surface exfoliation, two BHAs plus tea tree to help clear and decongest pores, and hydrating actives like cactus water and hyaluronic acid to maintain skin moisture and plumpness.

How does this toner exfoliate without over-drying sensitive skin?

The formula uses a PHA-based exfoliant that works more gently than stronger AHAs, reducing surface buildup while being suitable for more reactive skin types. Two kinds of BHAs and tea tree target clogged pores and help reduce congestion without aggressive stripping.

• PHA: gentle surface exfoliation for smoother texture
• Dual BHAs: deeper pore-clearing action
• Tea tree extract: helps calm and decongest
• Free of drying alcohols and harsh synthetic dyes

Will this toner hydrate as well as exfoliate?

Yes—hydration is a core part of the formula. Watermelon extract and cactus water deliver lightweight botanical moisture while hyaluronic acid attracts and holds water in the skin, so exfoliation doesn’t leave skin tight or flaky.

• Watermelon extract: amino-rich hydration and antioxidants
• Cactus water: long-lasting, lightweight moisture
• Hyaluronic acid: plumps and helps skin retain hydration
• Improves skin feel after a single application

How should I use the toner in my routine safely?

Use after cleansing and before serums and moisturizers. Dispense into palms and press gently into face and neck, or sweep with a cotton pad; avoid the eye area and follow with sunscreen during daytime.

• Apply after cleansing, before heavier treatments
• Press into damp skin or apply with a cotton pad
• Avoid contact with eyes and broken skin
• Use sunscreen during the day to protect renewed skin

What makes this edition different from the regular toner?

The product retains the Watermelon Glow Toner formula but comes in limited edition Pride packaging to support and celebrate the LGBTQIA+ community. Ingredients and performance remain focused on gentle exfoliation, hydration, and pore refinement.

• Same proven PHA + BHA formulation
• Limited edition Pride-themed packaging
• Vegan and cruelty-free formulation
• Free from parabens, sulfates, phthalates, and drying alcohols

Who this is for: This toner suits anyone seeking a gentle, multi-tasking step that exfoliates and hydrates—ideal for combination, oily, or congestion-prone skin and for those who want a softer resurfacing effect than strong AHAs. It’s also a good match for shoppers who prefer vegan, cruelty-free products and value limited edition releases that support community causes. Patch test before use if you have very reactive skin or are introducing exfoliants for the first time.
