Yay—let's recycle! Here’s a quick guide for when you've finished using all your products:
1. Make the products 'recycle ready' by rinsing it out and cleaning it. What if the product doesn't work for me? Give it to someone who might like to try it! That way, you will minimise wastage and give the product a second home. ♡♡
2. Get the DETAILS! Typically, most skin care packaging is recyclable in Australia, but what can and can’t be recycled depends on where you live. A quick Google search will reveal a recycling guideline based on your state / territory.
3. Can I put this in my recycling bin? If you've checked and the answer is 'yes', give these items a second life and put them in the recycling bin. If it's not, look into enterprises like TerraCycle, to help you properly recycle your beauty products. If the product is recycable through TerraCycle, it is FREE and all you have to do is gather your empty products together, print a recycling label and ship it out - that’s it! They’ll take care of the rest for you.
FYI, recycling plants uses numbers ranging from 1 to 7 to help sort all the materials. PETE stands for Polyethylene Terephthalate and PP stands for Polypropylene — these are both plastics. PAP represents paper / mixed paper / cardboard. See Earth Easy to learn more about your plastics.
That's it babes! Remember to love our earth; love our planet! #dontbetrashy
Got blackheads? You won't for much longer with Benton's Aloe BHA Skin Toner. We reckon it's one of the best toners out there for those with sensitive skin. Why? Because original clean K-beauty brand Benton has substituted the water content in this toner with pure aloe leaf water. In addition, anti-microbial snail mucin and salicylic acid clean deep into the pores, soothe redness and even skin tone. Use it also to prep the skin to help boost the effectiveness of the rest of the stars in your skincare routine.
This product has a pH level of 6.

The Benton Aloe BHA Toner is very good for sensitive skin. 80% Aloe water helps soothe, while a gentle 0.5% concentration of salicylic acid cleans pores without leaving the skin feeling overly dry. There's also polyglutamic acid and hyaluronic acid to help restore some moisture.
We would not use the Benton BHA toner with a vitamin C serum - in fact, we would avoid using any acid exfoliant with vitamin C, as it can cause skin sensitivity. If you want to incorporate both into your routine, we suggest using the vitamin C serum in the morning (as it is an antioxidant and will help protect you from free radicals), and the BHA toner at night.
The key benefits of this Benton Toner are clean pores, less texture, smoother skin and a more plump appearance. It can also help reduce the appearance of acne and blackheads.
The Benton BHA Toner is gentle enough to use everyday! You can also use it every second or third day if your skin is particularly dry or sensitive. It will still be effective.
