Licorice pH Balancing Cleansing Toner — Reddit Reviews
by Acwell
Updated October 25, 2026
Licorice-root toner fades stubborn red and purple marks; soothing, fresh finish.
What the community says
A licorice-root toner with glycerin and multiple botanical extracts, used after cleansing before treatments. It suits people chasing lingering post-breakout discoloration and a soothed, fresh feel, though bergamot oil and one barrier-ruining report make reactive skin hesitate.
What this means for you
What people love
Watch out for
- Barrier damage reported after only a few uses
