It sits between a cleanser and a moisturizer: not a replacement toner, but a targeted exfoliant available in skin-typed formulas that use ingredients like witch hazel, BHA (salicylic acid) and acetyl glucosamine to refine texture without over-drying.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow should I use Clarifying Lotion 2 in my daily routine?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse twice daily after cleansing and before moisturizing.
