Beauty Product Reviews

be careful not to use too much!

As soon as I tried this, the first hand I did turned out terrible!! The top coat cracked and parts of it dried white. I shook the bottle harder and used a little less product for my next hand and it turned out so much better. Not sure what I did wrong the first time, but be careful to use it correctly or else it could ruin your manicure! Other than that issue, it dries really fast and definitely turns your nails matte!

effective, but takes work

This is the cheapest and most effective Vitamin C product I have ever used, but it does take some getting used to! Since it is a suspension, it feels a little gritty and the water-free formula is weird to apply. I use this by wetting my face a little with thermal water (the water helps the Vitamin C to dissolve into the skin) then pat the formula - all you need is a little bit, less is more! - all over my face or wherever I need it. I typically have to wait ten minutes before it completely soaks in, but once it does I finish with moisturizer and I'm good to go! My skin has never been brighter, and my acne scars and dark spots are fading. Amazing for the price if you're willing to work with it! If not, The Ordinary has several other Vitamin C formulas you can check out!

holy grail!

I've had incredibly oily skin for years now, like it would get crazy oily within three or four hours after washing it. I tried so many products marketed for oily skin, but they all just made me more oily and some even made my skin flaky (but still oily.) Everything I tried to control it was just making it worse. Until I tried this. I've only been using it for a few weeks, but my skin feels so healthy whenever I use it. It feels hydrated, it doesn't overproduce oil, and is so soft. I think the main source of my oiliness was because my skin was dehydrated, so overproduced oil. This actually works, and is such a great price! The serum is really thick and it's sticky for only a minute after application, I tap it into my skin and give it a minute to absorb before I move on to my next step. Highly recommend!

Made my skin feel great!

I love the way this feels on my skin! The exfoliating beads are super tiny and don't feel rough on my face, just gentle exfoliation. It smells great, kind of faintly like cucumber, and my face feels so refreshed afterwards. I love all of Bioderma's oily skin line, they're great for my super oily skin!
