Niacinamide Brightening Toner

Breakdown

1 ingredient to avoid

Good Molecules Niacinamide Brightening Toner scores 53/100 on Tallow — our okay band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Good Molecules Niacinamide Brightening Toner lists 14 ingredients, starting with Niacinamide, 1,2-hexanediol, Propanediol (Pdo), Arbutin and Betaine Hydrochloride. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 53/100 Good Molecules Niacinamide Brightening Toner lands mid-scale — below the typical score in toner, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in toner is Trader Joe's Rose Water Facial Toner at 100/100.
