Cleansing Pads vs. Liquid Toner
Pads offer a pre-measured dose and a travel-friendly format—ideal for busy routines.
| Benefit | AMVital Cleansing Pads | Liquid Toner |
|---|---|---|

| Travel-friendly | TSA-friendly, no spills | Liquid restrictions |
| No cotton needed | All-in-one | Requires cotton pads |

Turmeric + Kojic Acid: Why This Combo Is Popular
Kojic acid: Commonly used in skincare to help reduce the look of uneven tone by targeting tyrosinase activity. (Chang, 2009)
Turmeric (curcumin): Known for antioxidant and soothing properties that support calmer-looking skin. (Vaughn et al., 2016)
Leave-on advantage: Leave-on formulas keep ingredients on skin longer than rinse-off products. (Becker et al., 2019)

Step 1 — Cleanse first: Remove makeup/sunscreen with a gentle cleanser like Turmeric Gel Cleanser or Turmeric Soap.
