Theramid Ceramide Treatment 35 ingredients
It gives me massive texture and bumps for some reason. I'm still unsure what in it is the problem... I had a similar reaction to the Madagascar Centella Ampoule, so I'm guessing I might not react very well to centella/cica, but it might be anything really.

Super toller und sehr ergiebiger Moisturizer der einfach zu handhaben ist. Klebt vom Gefühl her etwas :) für Fungalakne nicht geeignet, jedoch in der 500ml Packung ein toller Bodymoistruizer. Tolles Familienunternehmen aus Deutschland:)
