Aminos vs. What?

Kjelle · ‎06-07-2013

${#emotions_dlg.blush}$ Ok, I feel stupid asking this as long as I have been using WEN. I know there was a thread explaining all about this, but I can't find it. 613 has the 11 aminos, I know. So what differentiates the POM, seasonals, the wheat based formulas? Thanks in advance for helping me get this straight in my head, ladies.

Only the seasonals, 613 and BGT have the additional aminos. POM, 613 and the seasonals are all Soy based. Lav, TT, Fig, SAM and CA are all wheat based, the kids line and BGT are rice based.

The Pom is soy based like the seasonals and 613. However, Pom doesn't have the amino acids like the seasonals and 613. The seasonals are sort of a hybrid between the seasonals and 613. The wheat based formulas are tea tree, sweet almond mint, fig, lavender, and cucumber aloe. The bamboo green tea is rice based with the amino acids added. The Wen kids line is rice based without amino acids or menthol. Wen kids, 613, and bamboo green tea are nut free. I hope this helps.

thanks jaxs mom. So, in terms of the wheat based CCs we are basically just talking about moisture and naturally good ingredients, correct? Nothing additional?

That's a good description. I'd add POM into that list, except that it's soy based but it doesn't have any of the additional ingredients that 613, the seasonals and BGT do.
