An ultra- clarifying body toner that helps with the look of neck, chest, and back blemishes to reveal flawless looking skin on the body. Get ready for deep pore cleansing, suited for both, normal to sensitive skin using nourishing Cucumber Extract, pore- minimizing Niacinamide, and skin tone evening B Vitamins – all wrapped up in this body toning lotion.

Formulated with the following beneficial ingredients:
- Cooling, astringent Cucumber Extract: Not just used as slices on eyes in movie scenes, cucumbers are cooling, help to reduce the look of puffiness, and calm the skin.
- Restorative Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): Helps in improving the look of uneven skin tone and dullness, and minimizes the appearance of pores.
- Conditioning B Vitamins: Visibly improves skin’s radiance, and the look of pigmentation caused by acne scarring.
- Soothing Allantoin: Allantoin is keratolytic, which simply put means that it improves the look of dull skin by exfoliating dead skin cells. Also, has skin soothing properties.

#MBSKINTIP: Say goodbye to body breakouts with your new, regimented body care routine. Step 1) Cleanse skin with Mario Badescu's A.H.A. Botanical Body Soap before, Step 2) Sweeping the back, chest, shoulders, and neck with Special Cleansing Lotion “O”. For persistent blemishes, our aestheticians often recommend using Drying Mask 1-3 times a week (on affected areas only) and incorporating the Drying Lotion and/or Buffering Lotion as needed.

Q&A

Can you use this toner with the AHA Body lotion (in addition to the Aha cleanser)?
Thanks for your question. These can be used together. We recommend patching your skin's tolerance to the combination of products.
Dyes 5 and 6 are cancer causing colorants. Why do you use them in your products? I have this cleansing lotion and noticed these two ingredients in them. Thank you.
Thanks for your question. Both colorants are approved for use in cosmetics by FDA and EU regulations for use. Please be assured that our products are safe for use.
What happens to the product if you use it past the expiration date? Is it no longer usable or are the ingredients just less potent (similar to expired medication)?
Thanks for your question. Once the product is opened, it is good for the period of time indicated in the PAO (period after opening) symbol. Please refer to this indicator on the back of your product to ensure freshness once the product has been opened. Ingredients can break down over time which can change the chemical composition. We do not recommend using expired products.
is the allantoin (contained in this product) vegan ?
Thanks for your question, Louis. The Special Cleansing Lotion "O" is vegan friendly.
Can I used this 2x a day? I shower morning and night.
Thanks for your question. You may use this twice daily, if dryness occurs, only use the product for overnight use.
