| L'Oreal 3 in 1 Purifying Micellar Solution - £3.33 |
Usually I stay clear of skincare from brands such as L'Oreal, Garnier etc, etc. I've just not had good experiences with them in the past and their products are often quite harsh on the skin but recently I decided to pick up the L'Oreal 3 in 1 Purifying Micellar Solution on a bit of a whim. I've been using Bioderma for a while now, but it is quite expensive, so thought I would try an alternative.
I was actually browsing the Christmas gift set section in Boots and spotted this as part of a set. The set was £10 but I guessed the store was probably selling it individually so thought I'd have a scout round. I was surprised at how cheap it was really but after trying it out I have to say I am quite impressed.
It claims to unclog pores, remove impurities and all the usual stuff as well as remove makeup and soothes and tones the skin. I was most interested to see how it would sooth and tone the skin so I used it instead of my normal cleanser/toner combo. It is really gentle and kind to the skin. It has a bit of an unpleasant scent to it but I can get over that easily, but what impressed me most is that it's very gentle on the eyes and removing eye makeup, unlike the Bioderma, which has made my eyes sting a couple of times. Granted you probably shouldn't use it to remove eye makeup but I'm lazy so there you go.
Overall I'm really impressed and I'm going to recommend this to my sister as a great alternative to Bioderma. I get so happy when I discover new lovely skincare!

ReplyDeleteI need this in my life. The fact that its cheaper and just as efficient, if not better than Bioderma is such a big bonus!

Ooh, this looks interesting and after hearing mixed reviews about Bioderma why not try alternatives instead and see...sometimes other brands are better!

I used this and found that although it doesn't sting your eyes and face, it doesn't get rid of the makeup as easy as it claims! And I don't wear much makeup during the day! Maybe it's just different skins :)
