The Starting Point for Chemical Exfoliation
Most people who give up on acids didn't use the wrong acid. They used one without anything to repair the barrier afterwards, found their skin got tight and reactive within a few weeks, and concluded exfoliation wasn't for them.
This is the pairing that prevents that. An acid, and the ceramide moisturizer that makes using it sustainable. Rs. 3,640 for a 250ml toner and 237ml lotion — less than buying them separately.
What's Inside
The correction step · 2 to 4 evenings a week
A leave-on exfoliating toner at a clinically effective 7% concentration. Glycolic acid is the smallest AHA molecule in skincare, which is why it works faster and more visibly than larger acids.
It dissolves the bonds holding dead, dull and hyperpigmented cells to the surface, so they shed and reveal fresher skin underneath.
- Smooths rough and uneven texture
- Brightens dull, flat complexion
- Fades dark spots and post-acne marks
- Refines the appearance of pores over time
The repair step · every morning and evening
Formulated with ceramides and hyaluronic acid. Ceramides are the lipids that make up much of your skin barrier — exfoliation, cleansing and sun exposure all deplete them, and when levels drop, skin loses water faster and reacts more easily to everything you put on it.
Replacing them is what "barrier repair" actually means, and it's why this goes on within minutes of the toner rather than as an afterthought.
- Restores and seals the moisture barrier
- Oil-free, absorbs quickly with no greasy finish
- Non-comedogenic — safe for acne-prone skin
- Light enough for combination and oily skin

Exfoliation is a long game. Whether you're still doing it in month three matters more than how strong the acid is.
Who It's For
Anyone starting with acids. Two products, one decision, nothing to work out about what pairs with what.
Anyone who's tried an acid and stopped. If a previous attempt left your skin tight or reactive, the missing piece was almost certainly barrier support rather than the acid itself.
All skin types, including oily and combination — the lotion is oil-free and light enough for both.
How to Use
Evening, 2–4 times a week: cleanse → apply the toner to a cotton pad and sweep across face and neck, avoiding the eye area → wait 3–5 minutes → moisturizer.
Evening, other nights: cleanse → moisturizer. No toner.
Every morning: cleanse → moisturizer → SPF.
Start at two evenings a week and build to a maximum of four over three to four weeks. Never nightly — rest nights are what make long-term use sustainable, and pushing harder produces irritation rather than faster results.
You'll Need Sunscreen
This bundle doesn't include it. Glycolic acid increases UV sensitivity for days after each use, and dark spots deepen with sun exposure faster than any acid can fade them — so daily SPF isn't optional alongside it.
Add SPF 50 or SPF 70 at Rs. 1,200, or take the Repair & Protect Bundle at Rs. 3,000 instead, which pairs the same toner with sunscreen rather than moisturizer.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the price of this bundle in Pakistan?
Rs. 3,640 for a 250ml toner and 237ml lotion — lower than buying them individually. Both last around three months at the recommended frequency.
Is this good for beginners?
Yes — it's the pairing we'd point most first-time acid users toward. Start at two evenings a week and build slowly.
Why do I need moisturizer with an acid?
Exfoliation depletes ceramides, the lipids holding your barrier together. Without replacing them, skin gets tight and reactive within a few weeks. This is the most common reason people abandon acids.
Can I use the toner every night?
No — maximum four evenings a week. Rest nights aren't a limitation, they're what makes the routine work over months.
Is it suitable for oily skin?
Yes. The lotion is oil-free and non-comedogenic, light enough for oily and combination skin.
Does this include sunscreen?
No. Add SPF separately, or choose the Repair & Protect Bundle, which includes it.
This or the Repair & Protect Bundle?
Both contain the same toner. Take this one if you already own sunscreen but need a moisturizer; take Repair & Protect at Rs. 3,000 if sunscreen is the gap. Ideally you end up with all three.
What if my skin stings or flakes?
You're using it too often. Drop to twice weekly, use more moisturizer, and build back up slowly.
