{"product_id":"exfoliating-toning-solution","title":"ELTESSA Glycolic 7% Toning Solution","description":"\u003cp\u003eThere is a reason the world's most loved exfoliating toners are built on glycolic acid: it has the smallest molecule of all the AHAs, so it reaches where gentler acids don't, sweeping away the dull surface layer that makes skin look grey, rough and older than it is.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ELTESSA Glycolic 7% Toning Solution brings that experience home — a professional-strength exfoliating toner that, used with discipline two or three evenings a week, rewards you with the polished texture and fresh clarity of a studio facial. The 7% is on the label because a percentage you can't see is a promise you can't check.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho it suits — and who should wait\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNormal to oily skin dealing with dullness, rough patches, uneven tone or post-acne marks — ideally skin that has already tolerated gentler actives. \u003cstrong\u003eThis is not a beginner product.\u003c\/strong\u003e If you've never used an exfoliating acid, start with a salicylic cleanser and work up. Not for sensitive or irritated skin, and not during pregnancy without a doctor's advice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter cleansing, two to three evenings a week, sweep across the face with a cotton pad — avoiding eyes, nostrils and lips. Don't rinse. Follow with moisturizer. A brief tingle is normal; burning is not, and means wash it off. \u003cstrong\u003eSunscreen the next morning is non-negotiable\u003c\/strong\u003e — AHAs meaningfully increase sun sensitivity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe honest timeline\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNoticeably smoother skin after the first few uses.

If you already tolerate gentler actives comfortably, this is the sensible next step.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIs it suitable for oily skin, and what does it actually help with?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt suits normal to oily skin dealing with dullness, rough patches, uneven tone or post-acne marks. Glycolic acid has the smallest molecule of all the AHAs, so it reaches where gentler acids don't and sweeps away the dull surface layer that makes skin look grey and rough. Sensitive or irritated skin should not use it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow long before I see results?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNoticeably smoother skin after the first few uses. Brighter, more refined texture by week four to six. More even tone and softened marks by week eight to twelve. The results come from disciplined twice- or three-times-weekly use, not from using it more often.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I use it with retinol, vitamin C or a salicylic acid product?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNever on the same night as retinol or another acid, and never with a physical scrub — that combination is how people end up irritated and blame the wrong product. Keep them on separate evenings. A vitamin C serum belongs in your morning routine, so it doesn't clash with this.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDo I need sunscreen the next morning?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — this one is non-negotiable. AHAs meaningfully increase sun sensitivity, and in Pakistan's sun that matters doubly. Without sunscreen you'd be softening marks with one hand and creating new ones with the other.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIs a tingle normal, or does it mean it's irritating my skin?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA brief tingle is normal. Burning is not — if it burns, wash it off. Start with one evening a week, keep the rest of your routine simple, and let your skin set the pace. Avoid eyes, nostrils and lips when you sweep it on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow long does one bottle last?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bottle is 150ml and it's applied on a cotton pad only two or three evenings a week, so it lasts far longer than a daily product would. We won't invent an exact number of weeks — it depends on how saturated your cotton pad is — but it comfortably covers the eight to twelve weeks where the tone results appear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWill it get rid of my dark spots and pores for good?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo, and treat any product that claims that with suspicion. What it does is soften the look of marks and refine texture over weeks of consistent use, and hold that improvement while it stays part of your routine. It's a cosmetic product for external use, not a medicine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIs this the original product or a copy?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's the genuine ELTESSA product, sold directly by us. Every bottle arrives sealed and batch-fresh — if the seal is broken when your parcel arrives, don't use it and contact us. Unopened items are covered by our 7-day return policy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow long does delivery take, and can I pay cash on delivery?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDelivery is free anywhere in Pakistan and typically takes 2–4 working days. Cash on delivery is available nationwide, so you pay only when the parcel reaches you.
