Hello can this be used after the wash and then before the moisturizer lotion?
- Asked by Mel
- Official Answer By La Roche-Posay - BEHi there! Thank you for reaching out about Effaclar Micro-Exfoliating Astringent Toner for Oily Skin. Yes, absolutely. Our Effaclar Micro-Exfoliating Astringent Toner for Oily Skin is specifically designed to be used in that exact step of your skincare routine. After cleansing your face with a wash, you would apply the toner to help micro-exfoliate, visibly tighten pores, and purify the skin. Once the toner has absorbed, you would then follow with your moisturizer lotion to hydrate and complete your routine. This sequence ensures maximum benefits from each product!Was this answer helpful to you

- Q
Hi! Is this supoosed to be used everyday? I thought you were supoosed to exfoliate every 3 days or so
- Asked by Al
- Official Answer By La Roche-Posay - BEHello there! The Effaclar Micro-Exfoliating Astringent is designed for daily use, both morning and night, after cleansing. While traditional exfoliants might be recommended for use every few days, this toner contains lipo-hydroxy acid (LHA), a gentle exfoliant that allows for daily use without over-exfoliating. However, everyone's skin is different. If you experience any dryness or irritation, you can reduce the frequency to every other day or as needed. Always listen to your skin and adjust your routine accordingly. You can also consult with a dermatologist for personalized advice.Was this answer helpful to you

Great toner
I've been a user of a department store brand toner for over 40 years, and it worked well. But, I found as I entered my 60's, my skin was becoming dryer ( I've had oily skin, without many breakouts, all my life. Upside? No wrinkles). This particular toner didn't help anymore. I started using La Roch...
