Benton

If you’ve been looking for more naturally-based skincare products, especially toners & soothing masks, Benton could be the brand for you. Benton is a great addition to your skincare routine if you are someone who needs products which can help improve texture and really get in there to help combat pores, especially if you’re prone to sebum around the nose and cheeks. Their aloe BHA products are very popular amongst customers, with the Benton Aloe Soothing Mask Pack one of those items you’ll always want to have a few tucked away for those days when you’re planning on really treating your skin.

If you’re new to Benton and have never heard of the brand before, let us fill you in on everything there is to know, and why some products deserve to be in your basket.

What is Benton?

It isn’t every day we can say Brad Pitt was the inspiration for a top skincare brand, but that’s exactly what happened with Benton. Taking their name from The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Benton claims that their range is here to “turn back time on your skin” and help regain some youthfulness with a range of cruelty-free skincare products.

They are primarily known for moisturisers, masks, toners & essences. If you’re not familiar with using essences in your skincare routine, find out more about them here.

What makes Benton Special?

Benton does two things you typically don’t get with beauty brands. Firstly, by using natural ingredients in their products, each mini-range serves a specific purpose rather than trying to do too many things at once.

For example, their Fermentation products are specifically made for helping hydrate skin after cleansing, while their Aloe range has Polysaccharides which focus on skin protection. When you have a clear goal in mind with how you want to improve your skin, there’s a good chance the ideal product is right here.

Secondly, they only produce in small batches due to the ingredients used, giving you the chance to try fresher beauty products; something most other K-Beauty usually don’t do.

Are Benton skincare products good for oily skin?

If you’re dealing with oily skin, especially later in the day, having Benton products in your daily routine should see marked improvements. Their Deep Green Tea Toner is very good at helping control your skin's oil-water balance.

For anyone with oily skin who also has to deal with redness and spots showing up too frequently, Benton Goodbye Redness Centella Spot Cream can minimise the signs of stress without damaging the natural skin barrier. If you’ve been using spot cream which seems to dry out your skin too much, it may be worth giving this a go instead.

What ensures Benton skincare products are free from harmful ingredients?

You know that the Skinsider team spends a lot of time getting to know what ingredients the major K-Beauty brands use and whether they truly are worth your time. Regarding Benton, we find them to be a brand that is true to using natural ingredients and being cruelty-free with no animal testing.

We also love the fact that they use eco-friendly packaging too.

Why are some Benton skincare products sold out?

Because they use natural ingredients, Benton makes their products in smaller quantities. Anytime we get new products in, especially their toners, they sell-out quickly. If you’re here shopping for someone else for a gift, but aren’t sure what Benton products they need, get a Skinsider gift card so they can get exactly what they want.
