Biotherm White D-Tox CC BASE SPF 50+ PA++


Shade: Blue
Contents: 30ml/1.01 fl oz
Price: HK$245

According to Biotherm's webpage:

Description:
C.C. Base = Color + Care C.C Base can tackle different skin tone issues to brighten the complexion while protect the skin. Thanks to Lumina Marina Complex together with SPF broad-spectrum defense which correct, hydrate, smooth, protect and illuminate skin. Purple for Evenness; Green for Anti-redness; Coral for Glow; Blue for Luminous; White for Bright 

Ingredients: ActylC™, Venuceane™ (Blue Science Active), Sunflower Seed Extract, Life Plankton™

Application: Apply after the skincare and before the foundation to face and neck in small touches, before smoothing for a unified result

My opinion:

Back in the days, when I've first started with makeup I've really liked Biotherm, but as a was branching out alternatives, I've totally forgotten about them.

Recently I found this being discounted at SASA (they usually retail for HK$350), so I've decided to give this a shot.

This is a blue tone primer/sunscreen which is suppose to brighten up your complexion, and it didn't work for me, because it broke me out. I've tried it a couple of times and always ended with a huge zit.

Biotherm Light! Aquaradiance

Content: 30ml or 1.01 Fl oz
Shade: 405
Price: HK$230








According to Biotherm's webpage:

Easy-Blend Foundation Veil natural - luminous - SPF 10 - Normal to combination skin


LIGHT!
It blends in. You stand out. Naturally. Ultra-light texture for an easy application. Imperfections are smoothed out giving the complexion a natural look. Thanks to the 'Easy Fit Network', you can forget about your foundation but it won't forget you: The skin breathes and the complexion stays perfect. Day after day, LIGHT! The first easy-blend foundation veil with Spa ingredients, takes care of your skin.


Ingredients:

  • Pure Extract of Thermal Plankton
  • Vitamin B5 and E
  • Vitamin C derivative
  • UVA/UVB SPF 10 protection


My Opinion:

I'm not sure whether this is still available, because I've already got it for a while, but since this is my summer foundation, and I mostly prefer minerals during summer this is a product that has been hardly touched.

Recently, as the weather has become warmer, I've decided to give it another try and actually enjoyed using it.

This is a very light foundation with medium coverage and good staying power, I had it for 6 hours with no problems.

Whenever I put on a liquid, my face tends to be really oily by miday (I usually put on my makeup at 7 in the morning), but with this foundation I didn't have any oily issues, although I still have to blot my face, it appears that the oilyness is under control.

To review this product is really hard, because I love it, but can't use it.

Why I love it?
  • It has enough SPF for my everyday,
  • It evens out my skin tone,
  • It iluminates my complexion,
  • The best makeup base that I have ever use

Why I hate it? There's only one reason, it breaks me out.....
