Great moisturizer for sensitive skin
One of the few moisturizers that do not hurt my skin, or make me break out. It's fairly basic, but that's exactly what my skin needs/wants most of the time. Unfortunately bioderma discontinued this product, and replaced it with the 'defensieve' line. I have not tried that one yet, since it contains a few more actives, which is precisely not what I want... If Show more

This ruined my face! I didn’t know that my dust mite allergy also made me allergic to this. I used it for five months and everything seemed fine, but then I started to get a goatee of fungal acne with big red patches. I’d also been getting a lot of big pimples in my hairline from it. It’s taken me months to understand what happened and to soothe my sad skin. Be warned not to jump off the bridge Show more
