I won this product in the pickyxsomethinc giveaway and am so excited to share my thoughts and results.
The Somethinc Glow Maker comes in a 40 ml cute little blue plastic bottle. The key ingredients are 3% glycolic acid (AHA), 0.01% salicylic acid (BHA), 0.1% lactobionic acid (PHA). As the lineup of activities and percentages suggests, this is a mild exfoliating toner that can be used daily and is gentle enough for those with sensitive skin. The product claims to help even out skin tone, acne, rough skin texture, dull skin and fine lines.
The toner itself has a light watery texture. After cleansing my face, I poured the glow maker onto a cotton pad and spread it lightly onto my face and neck. It does not cause any tingling, does not feel the slightest bit sticky or tacky and gets absorbed almost immediately. I also did not experience any irritation from this product or notice any fragrance or smell.
I used the Glow Maker once daily in my pm routine for just over three weeks. I simplified my routine and after double cleansing used just this toner, a hydrating serum and a moisturizer.
This mild exfoliant did work some wonders. I saw a noticeable improvement in the smoothness of my skin, particularly the tiny bumps in the sides of my cheeks. I also did not experience any breakouts while I was using this.
I really enjoyed using this product and would recommend it to anyone looking for a mild and gentle exfoliant.
