BIODERMA | Makeup Remove Review

Today... Is an amazing day.

I've been wanting to get my hands on this baby for the longest time. I've heard so much about it from several beauty gurus but unfortunately for me, it isn't available in Malaysia. I thought I'd get my hands on one next week as I will be travelling to Singapore. 

Today, I decided to visit Guardian pharmacy at KLIA 2. I completely walked past this section as I only had one aim - which is to purchase a box of hair dye. My friend who was with me went, "Oh, Bioderma? What's this?" And I was like, what? Swivelled around, lo and behold. Sitting right there Bioderma's ever so famous makeup up remover and a few of their skin care products.

So, I got my hands on these..

Value pack with a free 100ml worth RM38.90. I believe I paid RM98+ for this. (will update upon checking)

A little information on this makeup remover brand:

Bioderma is a water based makeup remover. The one I purchased is for normal to dry sensitive skin. Removes water-resistant makeup despite it being water based. The micelle (definition: an aggregate of molecules in a colloidal solutions, such as those formed by detergents) contained in its formula effectively micro-emulsify impurities while maintaining the skin's balance (soap-free, physiological pH). 

Properties:

Fragrance-free formula

Alcohol-free. No phenoxyethanol.

250ml bottle.

Now all you have to do is soak up a clean cotton pad with Bioderma's makeup remover and remove your makeup. Repeat until there is no longer any makeup on the cotton pad. You do not have to rinse your face after but I suggest that you do cleanse your face with your regular cleanser and then proceed to your everyday face care routine. 

This product is really great for people with oily skin. Did you know that using an oil-based makeup remover can make your skin more prone to breakouts? Despite how dry my skin is (mind you, it is so dry that it flakes when I skip 1-2 days of skin care), I get breakouts from using oil-based makeup removers as well. 

This makeup remover is by far the best one I have ever come across. 

One cotton pad - both sides, removed all of my face makeup up. I was only using foundation, concealer, a little bit of eyeshadow, blush, bronzer, highlighter and mascara. I know it's not much but other makeup removers I have used were not able to remove everything completely with just one cotton pad. Even my very sticky double sided double eyelids sticker came off!

I apologise for the dryness of the cotton pad. My camera's battery ran out before I could capture pictures of the cotton pad

This Bioderma makeup remover is also very gentle on the skin. I have really sensitive eyes. Every time I remover my eye makeup or mascara, I would get red eyes or they may itch. So far I have not experienced any of those with this makeup remover. 2 thumbs up! If I had more thumbs then all thumbs up.

Highly highly highly highly recommend this to everyone! It may seem like it is very expensive but I believe this one bottle can last a very long time. Will probably insert an update on this blog post when I finish this bottle to update on how long it can last me.

Till next time!
