Reviewing Bioderma's Hydrabio Range

If you've followed my blog for a few years, you'll know Bioderma is one of my favourite skincare brands. Their Micellar water is a product I refuse to live without and I've gone through too many to count. I was over the moon when Bioderma kindly sent me their Hydrabio Range* to try. The Hydrabio range is aimed at combating dehydrated, dry, skin, which I'm especially prone to in winter.

1. Hydrabio Makeup Removing Micellar Water
Now, Bioderma's Sensibio micellar water is a holy grail skincare product in my collection. Believe it or not, I didn't realise Bioderma did other varieties of micellar water for different skin concerns. I've been using the Hydrabio micellar water for a few days and I do find my skin feels more hydrated and plump, compared to the sensibio one. It removes makeup just as well as the Sensibio micellar water and I find the Hydrabio micellar water to be a little more gentle and soothing. I would definitely repurchase the Hydrabio version in the future, as it is more suited to my skin type. 

2. Hydrabio serum - Moisturising Concentrate 
I love a good serum, but I also like Serum's that absorb fast and aren't heavy. This is a dream product. It's a water based gel serum, that's amazing for dry skin. It hydrates my skin, but also absorbs really fast. Normally I can only use hydrating serums in an evening as they are usually too heavy... but this is a product I can use in my AM and PM routine, which is great, as I hate having to purchase separate products for my routine. You only need a small amount to feel the benefit too. 

3. Hydrabio Cream 
I really love this cream and I think it will be a staple in my routine for winter months. It has a thick texture which isn't greasy at all and feels so nourishing and rich on my skin. This is another product I can use in the morning and evening as it absorbs really quickly into the skin. It also comes with a little spatula which is perfect for getting product out and is super hygienic. if you're someone who has tight feeling skin, this will be your new best friend. I get really tight skin around my mouth due to dryness, but since I've been using this, I haven't experienced that. 

4.Hydrabio Gel Cream 
This is a really lightweight gel cream, suited to more combination skin types. It has a similar consistency to the Hydrabio serum and is more of a gel than a cream in my opinion. I do like this as part of my AM routine but I think it is more suited to someone with a normal or oily skin type. It didn't provide as much hydration as I would like from a moisturiser and if you have dry skin I would definitely reach for the Hydrabio Cream instead.

After trying the Hydrabio range, I will definitely repurchase some of these products in the future. The serum and cream are stand out products in the range for me. I also want to try more products and will be exploring the Hydrabio range!

Glossier Skywash Review

Whenever Glossier launches anything, I just can't resist! I always loved the idea of swipe on liquid eyeshadows, but Glossiers lidstar's were just too shimmery for my taste... but Skywash.... right up my alley! These are matte liquid Eyeshadows, which claim to be buildable, long lasting (up to twelve hours) and easy to apply. I bought the shades echo, a cocoa brown and terra, a warm orange based brown. I love the concealer, doe foot like applicator, as it is small enough to swipe a good amount on my eyelid, without smearing it everywhere. I honestly can't tell you how easy these are to apply and blend out. A quick swipe on my eye and tap tap tap... I have a gorgeous wash of colour that's not patchy and looks divine! I love how quick and easy these are to apply and the fact they applied evenly really shocked me. They are also buildable, applying two coats gives me more of an evening look and a stronger wash of colour. To be honest... they aren't super long wear...

July Empties

 Ahhh another month another empties blog. I actually got through quite a bit of makeup this month, which is unusual for me as it's usually skincare I crank through.  The first product I used up was my beloved Glossier Futuredew. I didn't realise how much I loved this until it was gone. My makeup feels so much different without this as a base and I do miss it as part of my makeup routine. I have a few other primers to get through but I will definitely repurchase this one in the future. The second product I used was my benefit liquid eyeliner. I did like this liner; it's opaque, the felt tip is quite nice and it lasted such a long time before drying up. I do prefer brush tipped eyeliners as I find with hooded eyes my winged eyeliner always looks a lot more precise than with a pen style. So I purchased the KVD liquid eyeliner instead, but the benefit eyeliner is great just not my favourite.  My third empty is my smash box primer water. I adore this spray, it comes out as a f...
