Hello loves! I thought as we are entering
in the winter period I’d bring you a skincare post with a few things I’m loving
from the Bioderma Sebium Mat Control range that I’ve been trialing. I have
tried the Micellar water and the shine control Pore Refiner.
Micellar waters have been around for years
now and some are better than others. If you have never tried Micellar water,
they are essentially a watery cleanser, which has been infused with oils to
remove makeup & daily grime leaving the skin clean and fresh. It’s a really
fuss-free way to cleanse the skin without the need of water, so great for on
the go. I am a big fan of having a bottle hanging around because occasionally,
only very occasionally I must add, I am just too tired or tipsy to stand at the
sink and take my makeup off! I have used the original Bioderma Water in
previous years and really got along with it, It seemed to be kind to my skin
and didn’t leave too much of a residue on the surface of my skin like some
other brands can. I thought it was about time to try another one from their
range.
Bioderma Sébium H2O has been formulated especially for oily to combination skin so it
shouldn’t cause breakouts or excessive dryness; well it didn’t for me anyway. By
swiping a Micellar soaked cotton pad over my skin and even my eyes gently
removed most traces of makeup. I have to say, it’s not 100% effective at
getting every scrap of mascara off but that doesn’t bother me too much because
I then go in for a second cleanse with a balm cleanser. I don’t think I’ve ever
used Micellar water that has removed my mascara in one go, so this is not a
fault of the Bioderma Sébium H2O.
This is one of those products that I
totally recommend you have in, you know, just in case you can’t be bothered
taking your makeup off when tired (or drunk in my case!). I personally wouldn’t
remove a proper cleanser from my routine in the place of Micellar water but
there is no denying how handy they actually are.
Grab a bottle of the Bioderma Sébium H2O
from Feel Unique for £10.79(250ml), and £15.97(500ml).
There are those rare times in life when you
find a product that’s a littler hero and fixes all those skin problems in your
life. Recently though, I felt that little magical moment again, when I tested
the Bioderma Sèbium Pore Refiner for the first time. I know what you’re
thinking, who has that sort of “moment” with a product. But really, when you
have combination skin that’s pimple-prone, happiness can come in the form of
finding a pore refining skincare product that works wonders. It’s the beginning
of a long and happy relationship I’m telling you.
The Bioderma Sèbium Pore Refiner is
primarily a skincare product that refines the skin’s texture and regulates
excessive sebum production, but it has dual use as a makeup primer. There is a
small amount of salicylic acid included to treat existing pimples and keep them
from growing into monstrosities (we all hate those angry red ones you can get
at that time of the month!).
What sets this apart from other pore
refiners on the market is that it does
not smooth out the appearance of skin by simply plugging up the pores with fillers,
which bad because it means you are blocking sebum production completely, yet
just controls the production of sebum. Most people assume sebum is the enemy
but we actually need that stuff to keep our skin properly moisturised.
The back of the box can explain what this
stuff does for your skin much better than I can but I will summarise the most
important bits in my opinion:
As well as being non-comedogenic it has
other ingredients that regulate sebum production instead of completely aiming
to stop it. You never want to eliminate sebum completely because excessively
dry skin can also create spots; I was shocked when I found that out too!
You don’t have to use this all over your
face and you don’t even have to use it twice a day, although you could do both
of those things if you think you need to. All I’d suggest is monitor your skin
and use when you think is necessary.
It leaves a “pleasant velvety finish” which
is nice to the touch, plus you can’t even feel the stuff sitting on the skin,
which is a real benefit. As mentioned earlier, this stuff can also be used as a
makeup base and it’s that velvety finish that allows foundations to glide over
the skin smoothly. It does not really extend wear time, but it doesn’t make it
any shorter either. It’s more of the texture of the skin that changes when
using this.
You get 30ml, which is a good amount
because you don’t need to much of the stuff per use. If you use it only on your
T-Zone, it should last you a very long time. The product itself feels like a cross
between a gel and a cream, which is very lightweight and easy to spread.
Although it’s a translucent white initially, it smooths onto the skin clear.
There is a slight scent to it, which reminds me a bit of green apple although
this is not overpowering. It doesn’t linger any more than a minute though so if
you don’t like it, it shouldn’t be too much of a problem.
For just 1,430.00 Php, this is the best
pore corrector on the market. You get so much more than just instant pore
correction since this is truly a skincare product and not just a makeup
base/primer.
I don’t use this every day whenever I do,
my skin looks and feels better. I usually pick it up when I feel the excess
sebum weighing my skin down in the morning or when I know I have a breakout
coming along. It will do you loads more than any one product can; I really
recommend this if you are going to get anything from the range.
Grab a bottle of the Bioderma Sèbium PoreRefiner from Feel Unique for £15.49 (30ml).
All products from Bioderma are 3 for 2 at the moment on Feel Unique, grab yourself a bargain!
Have you ever tried this range from
Bioderma? If you haven’t I really suggest you do!
