Our exfoliating BHA toner is a salicylic acid toner with niacinamide and three essential ceramides, proven to smooth texture, control oil, and help reduce the look of pores in 3 days*. It also reduces redness, balances skin tone, and controls shine in just one week*, all while helping maintain the skin’s protective barrier. Developed with dermatologists, this unique liquid-gel advanced formula was designed for those who want results without the irritation of traditional exfoliants and a weightless, non-greasy finish.

 

The efficacy is immediate: 91% of consumers agree their skin texture looks instantly smoother,* and 100% say the BHA liquid exfoliant formula absorbs quickly without residue.* From the #1 dermatologist-recommended blemish brand in the US, this salicylic acid toner is formulated to soothe as it works. After just one week, 90% of users reported that visible redness was reduced and skin tone appeared more even,* proving that you don’t have to compromise gentleness for effective exfoliation from a BHA toner.

 

Bonus: This formula provides long-lasting shine control, keeping excess sebum in check for a matte, balanced-looking complexion. Experience the power of a clearer, more refined glow proven by science, backed by dermatologists, and gentle enough for daily use.*

  • Smoothes & refines texture: Gently exfoliates with 2% salicylic acid to smooth rough, uneven skin texture while reducing the appearance of pores for a clearer-looking, more refined complexion.

  • Developed with dermatologists: Fragrance-free, non-comedogenic, and oil-free, this BHA toner is suitable for all skin types, including dry, sensitive, oily, acne-prone, and more.

Frequently Asked Questions About

  • BHA toner, especially a salicylic acid toner such as CeraVe’s, exfoliates the skin to help smooth the appearance of rough texture. However, what sets our BHA Exfoliating Toner apart is that it’s also been clinically proven to have visible results with continued use, including helping to control oil and reduce the look of pores in 3 days*—plus, decrease the appearance of redness, balance skin tone, and control shine after one week of daily use.*

    *In a consumer study with 86 participants.
     
  • Yes! Our unique, advanced gel-liquid BHA toner was formulated with dermatologists to be gentle enough for all skin types, from dry, oily, and acne-prone to even sensitive skin. That said, the same doesn't necessarily apply to all BHA toners out there. While salicylic acid is the most common BHA used in skincare, other BHA liquid exfoliants may not be safe for all skin types. According to the Food & Drug Administration (FDA), the Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel reached a tentative conclusion that the safety and suitability of products such as salicylic acid toners depends on their formulations. That’s why it’s always important to read the label of any skincare products you try.
  • Refer to the instructions on the packaging of any BHA toner you try for specific directions. We can only speak for our salicylic acid toner. You can apply ours either once or twice daily. The key is to use it consistently in order to get the best results.
  • Again, each product on the market is different, so there’s no overall answer to this question. However, if you’re looking to add more than one exfoliating product to your skincare routine, we’d suggest using a gentle exfoliant that will complement your BHA liquid exfoliant. We have a whole line of salicylic acid products formulated with dermatologists based on your skin type.
