Biotherm Pure.Fect Skin Care Line Review




I haven't been blogging for a long time and that is due to my school work, but part of my new years resolution is to write more blog posts up and today I will be reviewing a long overdue skincare line I have been using which is the Biother Pure.Fect skin line






In this line there is a total of 4 products (5 in some other countries) which consists of the foaming gel cleanser, toner, moisturizer and spot treatment and in some countries a soap as well.
In all honesty, I decided to try out this line because of a Korean beauty program called 'get it beauty' and saw great results from the people who used it so I wanted to try this out really badly. 






Also, in advance I apologise I couldn't take any pictures showing the products but I have used up all these products and forgot to take them beforehand, but I will try my best to describe what they were like ~ 




First off, is the anti-shine purifying cleansing gel. The gel comes in a translucent colour and foams up pretty well. The products definitely lives up to the name 'purifying', my skin felt squeaky clean after using this, in fact it felt too clean, my face started to feel dry and tight after washing my face with this. However, I didn't find it really to be 'anti-shine', my T-zone still became oily after a couple of hours, but baring in mind I do wear base make-up often so that can also come across a factor to my oily T-zone problem. 
For my skincare routine, I usually use a cleansing oil/cleansing cream and then wash my face again with my regular cleanser but one time when I used this and accidently got some in my eye, my eye burnt like no tomorrow, my eyes were red for the rest of the day, so a heads up for you guys, stay away from the eye area if you use this cleanser.
Would I recommend: only if you have really oily skin.

 

Next up, is the toner from the line, now I will just get straight into the subject, I didn't like this toner one bit! partly it is my fault for not checking the ingredients before I made this purchase, but this contains quite a lot of alcohol content inside the product, and I tend to break out whenever I use any alcohol based toners. I wouldn't even say my skin is sensitive but I found this toner to be extremely harsh and drying on my skin. After using this toner, my skin got so bad, I had big massive spots on my cheek areas (ew I know!) and worst part of them all is now I am suffering from acne scarring because of this product. If you are allergic to any product that contains alcohol ingredients in then do not put yourself through this! actually, all their products contain alcohol denant so if you have sensitive skin or if your skin is not even close to being oily don't use these products because chances are they will dry your skin out.
Would I recommend: No



Third product is the hydrating gel, this is probably my favourite product of the whole line. It comes in a 50ml bottle which is the conventional size of most moisturisers in the market, but I found to use this up extremely quickly compared to other ones I have tried, but that could be to do with the fact I was using 2 pumps day and night everyday.The lotion comes in a gel type and Although, this product also contains alcohol and is meant to have anti-blemish/imperfection ingredients to target spots, I didn't find this to dry out my skin at all, it kept my skin at a right level of hydration but it didn't make my skin any more greasy which is always a plus. However, that being said I would definitely not use this during the current season because it wouldn't be moisturising enough for me now. But if you suffer from oily skin all through 4 seasons then this might be a lotion for you to look into. It's not the cheapest but it helped control the oil sebum on my skin.
Would I recommend: yes



Last in the skincare line is the anti-imperfection targeted solution which is like a spot treatment gel. This product definitely isn't a miracle worker and there are plenty of other cheaper alternatives you can find than this one, but it does do the job but don't expect to see instant results. I find this products works best for small little breakouts without a whitehead to them rather than using them on bigger spots which can cause even more irritation to them.
Would I recommend: No




Effects from Usage: 2.5/5


Overall:
I only gave this skincare line a 2.5 because I only liked the hydrating gel out of the whole skincare line. Also the negative results from the toner definitely made this whole line drop marks for me, no matter how much I loved the moisturiser I don't think I can deal with the break outs from the toner and the other two products didn't produce much effects on my skin either.
If I was to recommend one product from the line, it would only be the hydrating gel lotion.
 Also, on a side note, every product in the line has a very strong distinct smell, I can't put my hands on what the scent is, it's not a chemical type of scent, but it smells very perfumed and if your skin is highly sensitive to heavily scented things, do be careful when you are using.


Take care ~ ♥
