Beauty Product Reviews

Long time fave!

I have used this forever but had a brief period recently when I didn't. Big regrets! I didn't deliberately stop using it. It just somehow slipped my mind to order it and then I thought of it few times but got distracted and...well, you know how things can get.

Until...my face! What was happening? It was a mess. Then because I couldn't think of what was different, I began searching for new products and routines in vain efforts to get my once smooth and younger than my actual years skin back. Not to belabor this but I spent much money and many days and hours trying one thing after another all with either no results or worsening results.

I did hit upon a soap like cleanser that I liked but that was still not the answer.

Then one day, sitting at my vanity, putting on something that I was using as a toner, it struck me. My Bioderma! I had not been using using my Bioderma Sensibo, which I use for both an occasional cleanser but most often for a toner/second step cleanser. It just gets any additional cleanser residue off my face and is the most gentle way to ensure that my face is soft and thoroughly clean for the next step in my routine.

Within 24 hours I could see improvement. Thank goodness! I was on my way back to feeling pleased and confident about my appearance. I will never be out of this again! Unintentional lesson learned the hard way.

A Fav

I have used this for years and love it. I have used it a couple different ways. If I have worn much makeup, I use this to remove make up before using cleanser, water and my Clairsonic. I start by taking a non-sterile gauze sponge, putting a small to moderate amount of product on it and placing it on my eyelid, holding it there for 15-20 seconds or so. I then gently wipe away my eye makeup. I do the same on my other eye using the reverse side of the gauze sponge. I then reverse the fold of the gauze sponge and wipe my face, removing the makeup there.

Other times I might use this after my cleansing with my Clairsonic to make certain my face is totally clean.

And there are times when I am tired or not feeling well when I use this and nothing but this. I always feel my face is clean with this product.

It is gentle, does not cause and burning, tingling or discomfort of any kind even around my eyes. It has no scent, which is nice when we are bombarded with scents from nearly every product we use. I have tried my best to avoid running out of this. I missed it the couple times I made that mistake. 😞

Unique

Bought this some time ago. Don't use it as often as I should even though I really like the product. I don't like the mess that happens at the mouth of the container. I keep this upright on my makeup table so it is never on its side but there is always product in the top and threads that comes with shaking the bottle to make certain the products is well mixed before application. That explains the 4 rather than 5 star review.

The product itself is wonderful. I love being able to use it to tint other products such as primers or other foundations. N30 sounds so normal yet many foundations are too pink or too brown and this allows me to make needed corrections. Choices of shades in foundations were few as I was a young woman so to see products like this on the market is like a dream come true. I hate to sound too old but if you are young and just coming into the use of makeup, you are so lucky to so many choices and so many products that are good for you as well and you can't do better than this.
