SOME BY MI AHA BHA PHA 30Days Miracle Toner Review

Claim to fame: Miracle Toner; Free of Harmful Ingredients

If you've been reading my previous blog posts, you would know that I am always on the hunt for new toners to try. I have an inexplicable love for skincare, and toning is one of my favorite skincare steps. I also follow the 7 Skin Korean Method to get ultimate hydration for my skin.

I've been getting a lot of positive feedback about the Some By Mi brand, so I had to put it to the test. Not only that, I've also seen a lot of before and after photos which were really 😮 impressive. Yeah I'm a sucker for before/after photos on makeup, weight loss, and skincare. I'll share some below.

Personal experience:
I find this toner to be very gentle despite the fact that it is an exfoliant. Maybe because my skin is already used to stronger exfoliants? It is perfect for daily use, not like the glycolic acid solution that I've been using, which can only be applied 2-3 times a week. If you are new to using AHAs/BHAs and wanting get into it, then this is the perfect entry-level toner that can give you the benefits of exfoliants. As well as those with sensitive skin. However, if you are looking for a stronger chemical exfoliant then I suggest looking elsewhere.



What I love about this toner:
It has a high concentration of natural tea tree extract (10,000 ppm), as compared to other products in the market that contain tea tree. Skin concerns such as acne, acne scars, and redness are treated with use of tea tree products. It calms the skin, has anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial properties. 

aha bha the ordinary


Moreover, it contains one of my top must-have ingredients in skincare products - NiacinamideThis combined with witch hazel extract + AHA/BHA can improve the appearance of pores. Apart from The Ordinary's Niacinamide, I just realized that my facial wash and sunscreen also have niacinamide in them. Now one of my toner's has it too! LOL. 

Tip: Always do a patch test. Some may be sensitive to tea tree and have a bad skin reaction.







Verdict: Some By Mi toner is a keeper for me, mainly because it has Niacinamide in it. I will use it more on areas with redness and acne, that need calming and not necessarily on the whole face.

It's good to switch it up every once in a while and not use the same toner everyday. You'll miss out on benefits from different ingredients if you stick to just one. Not all ingredients can be found in a single toner or product. =)
