What is EltaMD Skin Recovery Amino Acid Foaming Cleanser?
EltaMD Skin Recovery Amino Acid Foaming Cleanser is a pH-balanced foaming cleanser for sensitive and compromised skin. EltaMD builds it on a patented complex of 3 amino acids, which it calls AAComplex, and states the formula is oil-free, hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic, fragrance-free, paraben-free and dye-free.
Who it suits
It suits skin that is reactive, tight or recovering. It is pH-balanced, oil-free, fragrance-free, dye-free, paraben-free, hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic, and EltaMD reports it calms skin and reduces the look of facial redness. EltaMD says it lifts away sunscreen, makeup, pollution, excess oil and impurities without causing irritation.
What the 3 amino acids are
EltaMD names a patented complex of 3 amino acids and does not say which three. Taurine sits at position 5 of the ingredient list, arginine at 10 and glycine at 20. Separately, EltaMD describes a cleansing system of amino-acid surfactants, lactylate and alkyl polyglycosides, so sodium cocoyl apple amino acids belongs there rather than to the complex. Bisabolol and ginger root extract sit further down the list.
What EltaMD reports, and under what conditions
EltaMD reports the cleanser significantly strengthens the skin barrier and reduces skin water loss after 7 days. The conditions it prints: tested and visually evaluated by a dermatologist on 32 female subjects aged 24-56 in a 2-week study using product twice daily. Separately, 93% agreed it did not leave their skin feeling tight or dry, under conditions EltaMD prints as Kantar May 2023, Sample size: 160 women aged 18-35.
Where it sits on our shelf

My bag arrived in reasonable time - under 2 weeks from UK to USA - as expected. The bag is beautifully understated with soft leather, a lovely smooth strap that will not snag delicate knits but wide enough to feel comfortable on the shoulder even when carrying a heavy tablet and a smooth running zipper. It is carefully finished - no loose threads or crooked stitching and was exceedingly well packaged so there are no creases or scratches. The price was exceptionally good, especially as it included shipping and tax. I will recommend and consider buying from this site in the future.

Seashell Handbag
Hello,
The bag itself is nice. However the ball of straw at the top makes it difficult to wrap the loop around it. The clasp needs to have a smooth surface or use a smooth metal clasp or a large faux pearl (like on other identical bags) or with a strong magnet or a clasp used on many top closure bags. I tried to push down the straw ball so it's easier to close. Tell your supplier about this issue.
The bag smells so horrible of toxic moth balls, I couldn’t even bring it in my house. My whole head hurt as soon as I opened it, and I had to wash my hands after touching it. It has been sitting outside for 24 hours and the smell is just as strong. I need a new one that doesn’t smell Iike this.
The wrong item was sent but your customer service is not responding at all!!!!!!!!
I ordered
Lottie Flap Crossbody Medium Handbags-Olive
But got
Lottie Saddle Crossbody Small Handbags - Olive
These are well-made and very comfortable - was delighted when they arrived! The foot shape is very elegant (not too wide) which I think is not represented optimally in photo. More colors please!
These shoes were improperly size ranged. I am between a snug 6-1/2 and 7-ish depending on the shoe. I was too intimidated to order the smaller size seeing the 6– to 6-1/2 which 6 I am definitely not. So these 38’s are so huge I’ve inserted TWO inserts, and TWO Heel gels for each shoe and they are still hopelessly unwearable. I’m absolutely distraught. If you send me the smaller size I’m going to try to return these if you tell me how. Please send me the smaller pair.
