Good Molecules Niacinamide Brightening Toner — Alcohol-Free, with Arbutin & Licorice Root for Even Tone

This lightweight toner blends niacinamide, arbutin, and licorice root extract to target uneven tone, dullness, and the appearance of enlarged pores without harsh alcohols. Designed for daily use, it can be applied with a cotton pad or patted in with your palms and is suitable for a wide range of skin types. The formula supports a balanced, luminous complexion while fitting easily into morning or evening skincare routines.

How does this toner help reduce the look of pores and texture?

The formula uses niacinamide to promote a smoother-looking surface and refine skin texture over time. It doesn’t strip or dry the skin because it’s alcohol-free, so you get pore-refining benefits without tightness or flaking.

• Niacinamide helps support visible pore appearance reduction.
• Lightweight, non-irritating base suitable for layering.
• Gentle delivery that avoids dehydration-related texture issues.

Will this toner brighten dark spots and even skin tone?

Yes—arbutin and niacinamide are included to address discoloration and dullness while licorice root extract helps calm and balance the skin. With consistent use, the combination can contribute to a more uniform complexion and improved radiance.

• Arbutin supports targeted brightening of hyperpigmented areas.
• Niacinamide assists overall tone-evening and glow.
• Licorice root soothes while helping reduce visible discoloration.

How should I integrate this toner into my daily skincare routine?

Use after cleansing, either by sweeping a soaked cotton pad across the face or dispensing into clean palms and gently patting in until absorbed. Follow with your serums and moisturizer; apply sunscreen in the daytime for optimal protection when treating discoloration.

• Morning: cleanse, toner, serum, moisturizer, SPF.
• Evening: cleanse, toner, treatment serums, moisturizer.
• Compatible with most active serums—patch-test when combining strong actives.

Is this toner gentle enough for sensitive or combination skin?

The alcohol-free, pH-balanced formula is formulated to be mild and suitable for daily use across skin types, including combination and many sensitive skins. However, patch testing is recommended for very reactive skin or when layering multiple actives.

• Alcohol-free to minimize drying and irritation risk.
• pH around 6.2 supports comfort and gentle exfoliation balance.
• Vegan and cruelty-free formulation.
