It also gave my skin a nice glow without feeling tacky on my skin, which is always a bonus! OTHER NOTES

If you’ve tried their Honeymoon Glow, and don’t mind that tingle, it’s even milder than that. It does have a very minor tingle that is only for a split second on my skin. As I applied it, it felt really refreshing and hydrating on my skin. I found it to smell a bit herbal but it’s very faint and dissipates quickly. I applied this toner solely with the mini Makeup Eraser and found it to spread easily on my face without drying so quickly that I had to use a ton of product. Right now, we are heading into summer here in TN, and with the heat and humidity, my skin can lean more toward normal-slightly oily during these months. Speaking on the product itself, I know BHAs are designed more for normal-oily skin types, however, I can bounce back and forth to a variety of different types depending on the time of year. After I finish this toner, I’ll definitely hang on to this bottle and find another use for it. I’m so used to plastic bottles from other brands that I was shocked (in a good way) when I opened the package and it was such a heavy glass! It feels really luxurious. When it comes to packaging, they seriously know what they’re doing! I love the fonts and graphics they use on all of their products, it’s minimal but says a lot at the same time. “There are nine essential amino acids: histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, and valine… the 11 non-essential amino acids, which the body can make on its own, include alanine, arginine, asparagine, aspartic acid, cysteine, glutamic acid, glutamine, glycine, proline, serine, and tyrosine.Firstly, I want to thank Farmacy for so kindly gifting me the Deep Sweep – 2% BHA pore cleaning toner! I’ve been using this for a few weeks so I can’t really speak on the longevity of this product, only my first impressions during this time. “Essential” amino acids, on the other hand, are essential because they must be obtained from foods or supplements a deficiency in even one of them can result in health problems. The “non-essential” term doesn’t mean that those amino acids aren’t important rather, it means that your body can make them on its own, so it’s not “essential” for you to get them elsewhere, such as from food or supplements.

“There are many amino acids, but most scientists agree that there are 20 that are important to our health, divided into two types: essential and non-essential. Of course, the experts on the Paula’s Choice Research Team have the most informed insights on amino acids: They can even help maintain hydration levels and promote skin health. They’re bio-compatible and are the building blocks of peptides and proteins. But I’m glad they did!Īmino acids are really great for the skin. It seems to come outta left field and I’m not quite sure why the Farmacy chemists included it in Deep Sweep, particularly at that level. Interestingly in the Deep Sweep formula, situated between water and the 2% concentration of Salicylic Acid, is the amino acid Arginine. It exfoliates the skin and deep cleans - or make that sweeps - pores, clearing them of any build-up that can stretch them and make them appear more visible.Īgain, you cannot shrink your pores rather, you can clarify them so that they appear smaller in size and aren’t as noticeable on the complexion. With a 2% concentration of Salicylic Acid and a pH of between 3-4, Farmacy’s BHA toner certainly does what a good acid toner should do. It’s a safe-for-skin, refreshing, effective formula and a pleasure to use.
