La Roche-Posay

[dumbfairy]

I don't think there is a thread on this,if there is I'm sorry

Does anyone else love this brand? It's only just become more widely available in The UK at long last!

their moisturizer with sunscreen is excellent. its worth shelling out for (25$ in the US) mexoryl is better than the helioplex ingrediant (which is what neutrogena has these days)

their other moisturizers are great as well, but not worth paying for these days...

i used to buy this brand more often when i lived in europe and the dollar-euro exchange rate was more favorable.

I'm also a fan of the brand.
The products are efficient and not as expensive as luxury brands.

 

[Style-Addict]

I've seen it at a few places here in the US and have always wondered about how good they are. I think I might try it out sometime next year (have to finish off my Clinique items first).

 

[olga.]

well. i am one of the huge supporters of this brand. i think its one of the best when it comes to acne and general problems with skin.

i use their thermal water, moisturizer and effaclar series A LOT.

 

[luisa]

I can recommend this brand. it worked good on my oily skin and the prices are pretty okay.

 

[dumbfairy]

Are there any products in particular that people recommend?

I need a new moistoriser so I'm going to look out for the one with sunscreen

 

[adorefaith]

i'm interested in this brand too and would love to hear people's suggestions..

i have normal to oily acne prone skin but am living in a very dry climate... i have some acne scarring too..

which products would you guys recommend for acne?...many thanks..

 

[Aby]

Adorefaith, I used "Effaclar hydratant matité active" which is recommanded for oily skins and thought it was really efficient.

I don't live in a very dry climate but being in heated offices most of the day my skin tends to get dry or dehydrated in Winter.

This oil-free fluid kept my skin smooth and mosturized .

It's perfumed, a very light scent that I didn't mind but I know some people could be sensitive to it.

after reading about it in the Leighton Meester thread, i am def going to try it!

 

[The_Ida]

I'm really happy with the Anthelios W SPF 40 gel BF finds it too greasy, my skin drinks it up though.

 

[alzna]

I have the acne fighting one on right now.
not drying=good

 

[satin chic]

I use the Effaclar K fluid and the cleansing gel and both do a really great job at reducing impurities and don't dry my skin out at all. The cleanser even removes my mascara!

 

[Allura]

I use the Toleriane set. There is a lotion to remove the make-up and afterwards I use the rich cream. My skin is looking so much better since I used it.

Has anyone tried the Effaclar Astringent Micro-Exfoliating Lotion? I looks like a good replacement for my Biologique Recherche P50V...it says it helps to unblock pores and reduce pore size.

i also switched from Clinique to La Roche Posay. The products are excellent. I'm quite satisfied (was also satisfied with Clinique, but La Roche Posay is not that expensive)

 

[Komodia]

i used "efaclar k" lol i dont remember how to spell it.. but it made my skin realy irritated, and then dry, even though it is mixed skin and my dermatologist suggested it to me. well, i think im a weird case. i still use it, but only once a week or so, i cant use it more than that unless i want to have a red swollen face.

 

[KamenKutak]

i'm thinking about switching from Vichy Normadern to La Roche Posay Effaclar, but i'm not sure...

I've been using it for a few months but I'm not sure what to think about it. My skin is okay (no bad reaction, dry patches) but somehow I expected more. I don't know if I'm making sense...

I didn't realize La Roche Posay had a thread... I use Toleriane moisturizer, it's seriously so good! I used to have such dry skin, it was awful and I used to pile on moisturizer but it would give me spots. Toleriane is SO light and it doesn't give you any spots whatsoever, I love it. I always get compliments now Seriously recommend it! Haha I sound like one of those annoying people in the Proactive adverts, sorry
