no !! the toner is pretty strong and is only recommended to be used ( 2-3 times a week max) ! your skin doesnt need daily exfoliation , this can lead to irritation and can strongly damahe the skin barrier!

Not recommended as there will be risk of over exfoliation, especially when u're new to AHA. Patch test and increase the usage gradually within months.

Usually it's recommended to exfoliate no more than 2-3x a week. You may be able to exfoliate daily if you are using a very low concentration product. However The ordinary glycolic is actually quite strong at 7% so daily use might cause irritation and damage your skin barrier.

I wouldn't recommend using glycolic acid everyday because this can cause overexfoliation which can lead to irritation, sensitivity, and breakouts. If your skin can handle using it everyday then it's totally fine but if you're new to glycolic acid i recommend using it 2-3 times a week. The glycolic acid toner from the ordinary is also pretty strong so I wouldn't recommend it unless your skin can tolerate it. ❤️

I suggest not to use it everyday, 2-3 times a week is enough. Using it everyday can possibly ruin your skin barrier.
