My favourite acne prone skin toner (packed up with alcohol, parabens, etc, eff yeah) are discontinued. @ day after I finished it I thought my skin will be okay. I'm not okay. I spend a lot of money for acne toner and cream and non working like my toner before. Guess what? This incident also change my skin: most of my acne safe product before can no longer used by me because it gaves me acne so bad. My face is a bit better now, but will never be the same. Still need to find better product to help me get rid of those scars and dark spots.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00345069281007887090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541982013000251431.post-90455255775288278612016-07-29T12:58:17.108-07:002016-07-29T12:58:17.108-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Kelly Peepleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00512810882819930092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541982013000251431.post-62491987476144186722016-07-10T17:39:06.308-07:002016-07-10T17:39:06.308-07:00Cat, just to clarify, the Mizon Daily Clean Toner ...Cat, just to clarify, the Mizon Daily Clean Toner that we can still buy from some online shops still has the old formulation?

It turns out that the issue with the toner is just that they need to find a new supplier for the bottles, because there was an issue with the previous supplier's bottles having the black flakes form once the product was in them? So there is a possibility that you could get a toner from somewhere, which is current stock, and has the black flake issue. However, I have not had that issue with any of the new bottles that I have purchased.Cat Cactushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14052704885218633917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541982013000251431.post-47160946339959256452016-06-18T10:26:36.767-07:002016-06-18T10:26:36.767-07:00Good news!

I hate that I only got to use 1 bottle before they pulled it off the shelves...<br />A few months ago I bought some Polysorbate 80 from a UK-based EBay seller, and have been making my own oil cleanser, so I'm not that heavily affected as I could be I guess. The Balea one was pretty much the only affordable one that did not contain mineral oil, that's why I loved it so much. But now I have my own home-made cleansing oil, so it's all good. Maybe you could try making your own too?Vikihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04074840923998901040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541982013000251431.post-26108042880357246532016-06-10T11:50:12.361-07:002016-06-10T11:50:12.361-07:00Oh nooooooooos!
