Review : Bioderma Light Soothing Cream





Product Description
A new step forward in the treatment of sensitive intolerant skin, the patented Toléridine®complex instantly and durably acts against inflammation. It raises the skin’s tolerance threshold. More resistant, it is better protected against external attack, so it becomes less reactive.

Sensibio Light cream soothes feelings of overheating and tightness and provides immediate comfort.
• Sensibio Light cream moisturises and restructures the cutaneous barrier avoiding the penetration of irritant agents.
• Formulated with rigorously selected active ingredients known to be harmless, preservative-free and fragrance-free, Sensibio Light cream guarantees optimum tolerance.
• Sensibio Light cream’s silky texture leaves the skin soft and supple.
• Sensibio Light cream is non-comedogenic and hypoallergenic.

This moisturiser was part of the travel pack which I bought from Nishino Pharmacy at Liang Court. I had always wanted to try this brand since it was meant for sensitive skin needs. And since the travel pack was available, its was a perfect opportunity for me to get it. Another excuse for hauling, right?

This daily moisturising, soothing and protective care for sensitive intolerant skin is meant for normal to combination skin. It is fragrance-free, hypoallergenic, preservative-free, non-comedogenic and is without surfactants.

I had been using this for the past 3 weeks and its one of the 3 star products which I used recently to give me smooth beautiful skin.
The first one was Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil which I have reviewed here and now this moisturiser. Another one would be a night cream which I will review in my next entry. Stay tuned for that.

I used this moisturiser as my day moisturiser and its so soft and light, almost like a mashmallow. Alright, I am exaggerating, I know. But the fact is, its a lightweight moisturiser. I am used to my moisturiser being either a gel or a cream so this soothing cream came as a surprise, since it was touted as a cream. I am actually pretty wary of using cream-based products, because of my sensitive combination skin. In short, I do not like heavy-duty products on my skin.

I kind of like using this, because of its texture and its almost scentless. It is non-greasy and sinks into the skin fast. It did not irritate my skin or give me breakouts, but giving me soft beautiful and supple skin instead. I cannot say that this product alone gave me that effect because the other 2 products helped one another as well.

During these 3 weeks, I hardly experience any flakiness, a mild one once but thats about it. It surprised me because being a light texture, I did not expect that it can combat the flakiness which I experience once every few weeks on my skin so I really like how it moisturise my skin and keep the flakiness at bay.
The 2nd to 4th ingredients are all emollients/moisturiser which is why it served my skin well.

Looking at the ingredients at Cosdna , 95% of the ingredients are non-irritating, definitely something which sensitive skin can try. But thats just my opinion because apparently, there are many users on Makeupalley who dislike this product with a score of 3.2 from 12 users.
