I was immediately drawn to some products that were developed for sensitive skin as I've said before, its hard to find a good skincare routine for myself especially for my face as I find a lot of things seem to break me out. I hope to do a future post reviewing these items properly but for now, here's what I picked up;
(Bioderma BB Cream in Light)
I've heard alot about the Bioderma BB Cream, both good and bad. It only comes in one shade - Light, which tend to be too dark for fairer complexions. The product contains SPF 30 and claims to "Even out the complexion. Moisturises and soothes". It is aimed towards sensitive skin which is prone to rosacea. While I don't have rosacea, I do tend to get a lot of redness around my nose and cheeks which can sometimes show through in some BB creams/ foundations. I did give this a quick try when I bought it, i prepped and primed my skin and applied it using a foundation brush. I don't know if my skin was prepped enough or if I should use the method of a makeup sponge but it tend to cake on my cheeks. I'm not writing it off just yet as the colour is quite good with my natural tan right now so I will update when I give it a second try. This retails at €17.50, while it isn't the most expensive, I did splurge a bit on this so I hope it will be worth it.
(Bioderma Miceller Water)
This is one of the first Bioderma products I had heard people raving about, the Bioderma Miceller solution. This can be used as a make up remover or a cleanser. I had used the Garnier and Nivea sensitive miceller waters and had found them to leave my face feeling hot as though it was causing a reaction so I stopped using them. I'm looking forward to trying this out, but I will be trying a patch test first to be safe. Its says "Cleanses, removes make-up and soothes sensitive skin. Excellent tolerance. Non-rinse. Paraben free. Hypoallergenic." As I have said before, I don't use make-up daily, only for nights out/ special occasions so I look forward to seeing how well this will remove my make-up. The 100ml bottle pictured retails at €5.50. I decided to the smaller option and if I like it, I'll look into purchase the bigger bottle.
(Bioderma Moisturising Stick)
I picked up this lip balm as something extra to try out as I always seem to pick up new lip products to try out. It is for Damaged and dehydrated lips, which I have had a problem with lately and I wanted to see if this might be as good as my trusty Blistex relief cream, and to be honest it is! I have been using it for about a week now and find it so hydrating on the lips and leaves them feeling lovely and soft with no stickiness from the product. Only downside is there is no SPF, but its not a major flaw. It cost €3.50 which seems to be the typical price for lip products these days. Well worth trying.
I will be sure to do more in depth reviews when I have tried these products further. Have you tried their products? Let me know which are your favourite!
Until next time....
