What makes a good toner for skin with dark spots

Toners and exfoliating steps with niacinamide and glycolic acid help address hyperpigmentation and even out skin tone. Meanwhile, hydrating and soothing steps with hyaluronic acid, panthenol, and centella asiatica extract keep the skin calm and balanced.
