Bioderma Sensibio DS+ Cream - Soothing Purifying Cream 20 ingredients
I find it truly useless, it doesn't provide enough moisture, so my skin feels very tight, especially in cheek area. If I combine it with my other moisturizers, my forehead ends up oily, definitely not good for seborrheic skin. A huge disappointment for its pricepoint.
