[Review]: Bioderma Sensibio H2O

Beauty Monday, May 22, 2017

Hello loves, another new review post is up.. Well its no new brand in this post I'll share about my review on Bioderma Sensibio H2O. I know this is no longer any new brand and you might already know about this brand and product or have even tried it out yourself but to be honest this was the first brand that I've tried when I first came across micellar water. Before I would use cleansing milk to wipe off my makeup before moving in with the facial foam because I love double cleansing however after encountering micellar water its totally life changing! I know it sound dramatic but with micellar water you can skip rinsing again (you know we girls live anything practical but I would really suggest you to do double cleansing) and it leaves your skin feeling smooth and fresh .

Bioderma Sensibio H2O as said is no longer any new brand, despite it may be one of the well know brand for micellar water in the market as many beauty enthusiast or beauty vloggers and bloggers have been raving all about. This Bioderma Sensibio H2O is also known as one of the best micellar water in the market, which I can't disagree to. They're very gentle on the skin and is suitable for all skin type including sensitive skins. In this post I'll also share some very interesting offer for this product so make sure you read till the end.

I was beyond delighted, when Sociolla sent me a box containing this Bioderma Sensibio H2O. It was the 250 ml which I can use for quite sometime :) this product is also very gentle that it doesn't stink on my skin especially on sensitive areas like eyes. This product was indeed meant to clean makeup on face, eyes and lips so no longer lots of different product to clean each part easily swipe this product all over your face and you're done cleansing. It also claims to be able to soothe and moisturize skin with high tolerance.

Here's what it looks like, very much like water

Let's Give it a Test!

Trying to remove lipstick, eyeshadows and eye liner stain

After first swipe, all the shimmer eye shadow is gone and the rest are swiped off but not completely gone.

After the second swipe everything almost gone! ( Only stains of my waterproof eyeliner and kiss-proof lipstick)

After third swipe its all clean. It makes my sin feel refreshed and supple

The verdict is that this micellar water work wonders on my skin leaving it feeling clean instantly and it even lift waterproof makeups although several wipes is needed. After usage this product doesn't irritate my skin making it look fresh, clean and feels super smooth.

Please note that I swipe it off gently if you use too much power you'll end up ruining your own skin because our skin are so gentle. Bioderma Sensibio H2O has always been my favourite micellar water but their price tag may get a little heavy but now you can get very special deals at Sociolla for Bioderma products.

Mustika Puteri Acne Series #SayonaraJerawat #ByeAcne

Around last week I was invited to the Mustika Puteri Summer Party with Clozette ID. During this event we were given more knowledge and in-dept about Mustika Puteri's Acne series line and ways to style our summer clothes with Chianti Gunawan. Mustika Puteri Acne Series has this tagline of #SayonaraJerawa with their Acne Series Line and they claim that their product can help to diminish acne in just 7 days and they're also Paraben free!!

Mustika Puteri GM, Ibu Retno giving out her opening speech

The event begin as Kak Tika begin to host the event, first Kak Chianti Gunawan shared her tips on dressing up for hot Summer days which is basically everyday here in Jakarta but to be specific is on holidays like on beach days, etc.. She shared her handy styling tips likee to wear hats to keep our hairs on fleek throughout the day even though the weather is hot and humid and to pair our own Summer attire that fits to most to ourselves and to look stylish on a beach holiday doesn't always need to wear bikinis. Wearing abrinas or backless top can be challenging especially if we have acnes on our back that's why Kak Chianti Gunawan specifically highllighted the need to keep our skin clean so that if we opt for those kind of attire we'll look dashing!
Calling upon on to stage is the representative from Mustika Puteri as she explains more about the product and to be specific the Acne mist spray which is made specially to cater to back or shoulder acne. They uses natural ingredients and uses witch-hazel as their main ingredient. Its an ingredient believed to be able to heal acne naturally. As said we're what we eat so if we tend to have a negative and unbalanced lifestyle we'll end up having bad skin because our skin reacts to how our body feels. Therefore it is very important to maintain our health and lifestyle...

The ever stylish Chianti Gunawan

This Acne Series by Mustika Puteri claim to be formulated to heal and diminish acne scars and acne problems on the skin.
Here's what the product claim to be able to do to our skin quoted from their website.

Salicylic acid that has been combined with Acacia Gum helps lift dead skin cells by minimizing irritant effects
Panthenol helps moisturize the skin
Chitosan (nano) and Centella (nano) help treat acne prone skin and help fight acne-causing bacteria (Only On Acne Gel)

Right after the quick Q&A session we moved on to the challenge session where we were divided into groups to create our own yell" or jingle song video to express about this Mustika Puteri Acne Series Line. Afterwards we enjoyed lunch and the event continued as the Sun rises even higher in Noon...

Coming back after lunch the winners were chosen as I was lucky to win a prize for the day!! After that it marks the end of the event. No event would ever feel complete without taking pictures together right? here are some of my blogger babes!! It was a bright sunny day and we were all dressed up in Sabrina tops or dresses that makes it feel a lot like Summer Party together!!

Let me share with a my little experience with acne, in my teens I've experienced serious acne problems that even hurt my self-esteem but over the years although my skin has become a lot better but acne never completely left me. They come and go especially during those time of the months we ladies we'll experience that hormonal instability that results in acne. In addition to that my lifetsyle that has been not balance due to work load and stress worsen my skin condition that's why if you've realized my skin has been very angry to be lately that I started to break out again... Now moving on to the review... The complete acne series by Mustika Puteri consist of Acne Facial Foam, Acne Moisturizer, Acne Tinted Moisturizer, Acne Powder, Acne Gel and Acne Trouble Mist Spray and today I'll share my personal experience I've encountered while trying out both the Acne Gel and Acne Trouble Mist Spray below... enjoy !

Acne Gel

This Acne Gel by Mustika Puteri is very light in formula and it doesn't feel sticky on the skin. It is meant to be used as a spot treatment for the face but it is very gentle and not like usual spot treatment that cause exfoliating/peeling effect but this one soothes and calms the inflammation of trouble acne skin. No harsh effect on the skin is felt while using this product, the product helps to shrink the size of acne slowly naturally therefore it doesn't result in any peeling effect. Another thing I love is it helps the skin to heal therefore you'll no longer experience acne scars due to harsh peeling process.

This is how the acne gel look like, the colour is kind of brownish but I really love the scent nothing very much or chemical kind of scent but more of a soothing and refreshing subtle scent. Love the effectiveness of this product too!

It also blends in easily onto the skin, gives a tingling cool sensation too..

Ingredients

Usually I would apply a generous amount on the trouble spot and leave it to dry for the day or night. However on day time I usually apply lightly and blend it in after my skin care before moving in with my makeup but at night I'll just leave a generous amount on the spot and let it dry overnight. I realize that this spot treatment helps to soothe my irritated and red trouble acne bumps and the next day when I woke up the bumps become a lot smaller in size and what's most significant is the redness is not very much visible anymore.

Acne Trouble Mist Spray

Now the star of the show! When talking about acne skin care range we'd most probably seen lots of different varieties in the market but the one made specially for back acne are very rare in the market and now Mustika Puteri came with this innovation Acne Trouble Mist Spray that answers to every back acne problem. TO be honest I rarely have problems with back acne but not sure how and when I started having some back acne these days. So I tried this on for a week now and saw that it really does help for my skin to heal. Although it claims that this product can help to heal acne in just 7 days but after 7 days I still see some acne left on my back but it does help to clear it up... Talking about the formula about this product it is very much watery since its a mist spray therefore it shrinks into the skin directly and does't leave the skin feeling sticky instead it leaves the skin feeling refreshed and cool..
I realize that both these products from Mustika Puteri are very gentle and they really soothe and calm my troubled acne skin. Although I can't say that their claim completely work for me ( 7 days wonder) but I do believe that if a product work on my skin it will show improvement and that's what I've been seeing on my skin. However back again this is my own personal experience different people may experience different effect since each of us have different reaction to skin care but all I can say that this products work for me!! I could see visible improvement although not instant and magical effect that completely clear up all my trouble acne skin. Totally love how these products are effective on my acne skin but they're also gentle on the same time.

After spraying the face mist, it felt so light, refreshing and cool on the skin..

Thank you for reading! I hope this post helps for those who are desperately in need of a back acne problem... Check out Mustika Puteri ID for more information regarding this acne series line. Lastly thank you Clozette ID and Mustika Puteri for having me at the event!
