The 7% Glycolic Acid Toning Solution also contains ginseng root and aloe vera to boost skin radiance and soothe it. The pH of this formula is approximately 3.6. Glycolic acid has a pKa of 3.6. The pKa is the most important indicator to consider in acid formulation. When the pKa is close to the pH, there is a perfect balance between salt and acidity, which optimizes the acid's effectiveness and reduces irritation.
