View on AmazonThe Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner
A daily exfoliating toner built around a 7% concentration of glycolic acid, one of the smallest AHA molecules, which helps it penetrate and smooth texture effectively. Widely regarded as one of the best-value glycolic acid toners on the market.
Best for: Uneven texture and dull skin tone, if your skin already tolerates exfoliating acids reasonably well.
PanOxyl Acne Wash, 4% Benzoyl Peroxide
A face and body wash formulated with 4% benzoyl peroxide, a well-established ingredient for targeting acne-causing bacteria at a strength gentler than the 10% version but still clinically meaningful.
Best for: Active breakouts on the face or body, especially for those new to benzoyl peroxide and wanting to start at a moderate strength.
Retinol Cream with Hyaluronic Acid & Collagen
A day/night moisturizer that pairs retinol — one of the most studied anti-aging ingredients — with hyaluronic acid and collagen to help offset the dryness retinol can cause on its own.
Best for: Building a first anti-aging routine, or replacing a separate retinol serum + moisturizer with one product.
Ivory Mild & Gentle Body Wash, Coconut Water Scent
A no-frills, gentle daily body wash with a light coconut water scent. Not an active-ingredient product — it’s the reliable, budget-friendly staple that rounds out a routine.
Best for: Anyone who wants a straightforward, everyday body wash without added actives or a strong fragrance.
