Glow Recipe Site →Amazon →Sephora →SUMMARY OF REVIEWS
Glow Recipe's Watermelon Glow PHA+BHA Pore-Tight Toner is a mild chemical exfoliant that one creator with oily, acne-prone skin credits for clearing breakouts and maintaining skin health over multiple bottles. However, it contains fragrance, so those sensitive to fragrance should be cautious. Another creator enjoys the packaging and finds it reliable, but offers no specific performance feedback.
