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!

Bioderma Sensibio Range Review - PR

  If you've been around for a long time you'll know Bioderma is one of my favourite skincare brands and they were kind enough to send me their Sensibio range to try out.  The Bioderma Sensibio Micellar water needs no introduction. It's a staple in so many makeup artists routines and it's easy to see why. I've gone through so many of these micellar waters and nothing quite compares for me. This is the foundation of my morning skincare and is just enough cleansing without stripping my face. It's such a beautiful formula that leaves my skin looking super refreshed.  I also received a few goodies I haven't tried before including the Sensibio eye contour gel . This really surprised me as I usually steer towards creams when it comes to eye cream, but I was super impressed with the gel. It feels more like a creamy gel and glides beautifully under the eyes and makes the perfect base for concealer. I've actually been using this in the morning as I find the gel i...

Fenty Beauty Sun Stalk'r Bronzer - Pale Skin Review

I had been dying to purchase one of these bronzers since they came out and after months of resisting finally caved in! There are 8 shades which is great as there is a large range to choose from, depending on how you like your bronzer. Naturally I am quite pale and for reference I am the shade 120 in the Fenty Foundation and 150 Buff in Revlon's colour stay foundation, and even in summer, I never really change that much from these shades. From being so pale, the fear of the bronzer is real, I haven't found any that look natural and don't leave me looking orange, muddy, or like i have a some kind of smudge on my face. So I decided to try the lightest bronzer Fenty Beauty had to offer, Inda Sun. From swatching the shade appears pretty neutral and light, it doesn't have a red undertone that can leave pale skin looking orange. I also love the gold packaging and how luxury and sleek it feels. I used the same brush I would normally use for bronzer which is my real tech...

How To Streamline Your Skincare Routine

 Lately I have been feeling so overwhelmed with makeup, skincare and brushes and decided to take it back to basics. Having a simple skincare routine is great for your skin, cost effective and stops me changing my routine every day! I decided to make a routine and stick to it.. mainly in an attempt to stop my acne! 1. Cleanser  A cleanser is a must! Ensuring all that makeup and grime is off your face is one of the most important steps. I love this Pai, Camellia and Rose Cleanser , but it is a littttlleee expensive, another great alternative is the Nivea Daily Basics Face Wash.  If I want to make my cleanser last longer ( especially the ones that make my eyes water looking at the price ), I will just use micellar water, like the Bioderma one and a cotton pad in the morning and save my cleanser for night, but one cleanser will do the trick! 2. A Toner  Without a toner my skin feels tight and dry. The Liz Earle Skin Tonic, has been a favourite for years, it sm...
