Bioderma Products

So the cleanser which seems to be what everyone is discussing...is it just a clear cleansing water that you rinse off? There's not much info about their products when I do a search on leguidesante.com

^ no, you dont need to rinse the thing. you can visit their site: www.bioderma.com

I love Crealine H20, it's the best makeup remover/cleanser I've ever used. I also use the Crealine Legere moisturizer but it's not as good as the cleanser.

Again...does it remove waterproof mascara?

I just got their foaming cleanser coz my dermy said it was brilliant. I used it once and I feel like my skin is really fresh and clear. We'll see how it goes

Yes it does, it removes almost ANYTHING!! So strong, yet so gentle, it's quite remarkable.

I found Bioderm products at a local pharmacy in Toronto. However, they didn't have the Créaline H2O Solution. Instead, they had Sensibio H2O. Despite their different names, do you think they are the same product, with the same quality?

Thanks!

The only difference is that crealine is for sensitive normal/dry and sensibio is for sensitive. That's the only difference on the bottle. If you search for sensibio at the bioderma site, it says for sensitive, normal to dry. So i think there is no difference at all.

I can't leave without Sensibio. Definately HG. All my friends use it now, after i told them about it. And btw here in Greece is 15 euros, 25$ is a lot.

"Crealine, or Sensibio (as the international version is known) is designed for sensitive skin. The Crealine micellar solution is the same as the Sensibio micellar solution. "

I just found that on makeupalley, it is the same. Also if you go at the Bioderma site and click france and then peaux sensible (sensitive skin) crealine pops up. If you click international and then sensitive skin sensibio pops up. So i'm 100% sure it is the same product.

^ Ahh that explains a lot of thing (I was like "I only see Sensibio in my Edmonton Drugstore o.o") thank you FashionJunkie

 

[The_Ida]

I might get the Sensibio off eBay, but I'm pretty happy with Dermalogica Precleanse so far... Has anyone tried both?

 

[FashionJunkie]

Not the precleanse, but i have several dermalogica products (cleansers, scrubs, moisturisers). Let me put it this way: Nothing beats Sensibio. (Yup i'm a huge fan!)

My pleasure!!

Yeah its pretty amazing, I got my hands on it when I was overseas and initally thought its just water! But seriously so gentle, highly recommend it!!

 

[The_Ida]

I just got the crealine H20 cleanser. I love it! I can already tell that it will be my favourite. I bought it form pharmadiscount.com, the shipping was so fast and I got 500 ml for €12.

 

[michyed]

I used the makeup remover before. It was really soothing but I didn't buy it again because it hurt the parts around my eyes and it wasn't such an effective remover... I believe maybelline is a better alternative!

 

[LetThemEatCake]

I havent used it, but it's supposed to be very gentle. Maybe you got it into your eyes?

 

[The_Ida]

I have very sensitive eyes (Clinique once made them swell so much that I had to see my doctor), and I have no problems at all. I chose the version without perfume.

Ooh! What is the name of that version? I will seriously consider trying it out after hearing all these positive reviews!

 

[The_Ida]

The name is the same, it just says Sans Parfum.

Follow-up, here is another site that says they do free worldwide shipping over US$35:

I searched MakeupAlley and several members have ordered from there and has said shipping is slow but they are reliable, but I cannot vouch because i never ordered from them. And they have a discount for MUA members on the site. hope that helps!

How would one receive a discount for MUA members when purchasing from them?

i used to love Bioderma, but then i found out they line created for atopic skin contains citric acid (some of the products). really? citric acid for atopic skin? dont use them anymore. prefer Avene.
