Bioderma 20yr Anniversary Sensibio Pack

Image
Packaging: Large and mini sensibio waters as well as a plastic circular zip close pouch with white cotton rounds. All housed in a I thinks it's such a unique and fun way to try this product out. The cotton rounds aren't anything too special but the plastic ouch they come in is such a handy thing to have for travelling. How many times I've travelled and flung my loose cotton rounds in my bag; they're either gotten lost amongst everything or slightly dirty. The pouch keeps them clean and together, making it easier to locate. I have tried this Bioderma out before and LOVE it. It's my holy grail product to remove my make-up. Of course I will try out different types and brand of makeup remover but I always go back to this. So when picking up this set I knew I was getting value for money with the two different sizes, even though I had no immediate use for the mini size. Plus the handy travel pouch sealed the deal.

Know you may be aware that water and oil repel each other so a micelle molecule is able to be formed the water 'head' sticking outside with the water 'tail' inside. This is the basic formulation for most soapy detergents as when the molecule is split open the oil is released and able to do its work in breaking do...

Bioderma Sensibio H2O Micelle Solution

Finally the well known French skincare line I have managed to get a hold of! I've heard great reviews about this cleanser. Great for removing makeup and cleansing on sensitive skin. I've been using it for over a month now and wanted to share my thoughts. Packaging: Flexible clear plastic bottle. The cap is tinted pink plastic that matches the text on the bottle. The opening is quite large for a cap product but in saying that the solution doesn't pour out or get dispensed fast. Smell: None. It is fragrance free and I'm not sensitive to scents in products unless they are  really  overpowering  so this wasn't an issue for me. Colour: Clear. Formula/Texture: This is a thin, lightweight liquid. It is easily absorbed into the skin. The micelles in the formula micro-emulsify impurities with no irritation to the skin or eyes. It also contains soothing ingredients as it's formulated for sensitive skin. Wait it gets better, it's hypoallergenic. Let...
