The eagle-eyed amongst you will notice that skincare reviews<\/a> usually make an appearance on a specific day of the week. But what’s life if without variety?! \ud83d\ude00 I’m working through quite a backlog so you’re going to have to put up with some disruption to the regular programme i.e. quite a few overdue skincare posts coming up.<\/p>\n

This one’s a long overdue review on the Biotherm Aquasource Non Stop Oligo-Thermal Gel Intense Moisturization<\/strong>… which is basically the famed Biotherm Aquasource moisturizing gel. I had a bad reaction to the pink Aquasource Moisture Cream version before<\/a>, which was for dry skins, and the blue Aquasource Oil Free lotion for oily skins<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"review<\/p>\n

This time, when the opportunity arose, despite being diagnosed as needing the blue line (for oily skins) I specifically refused it and went for the green tub – for normal\/combination skins.<\/p>\n

I felt a little like Goldilocks at this point – I’d tried the one that was too rich, the one that was not hydrating enough… and finally, here was one that was just right! \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

The gel texture absorbed quickly into the skin with no sticky feel, and it kept my skin hydrated during the day. I used it mainly in the day as I go for lighter moisturizers in the day, so this was perfect. I find that when I apply the gel to my skin, my skin feels cool which was a little unexpected.<\/p>\n

I experienced no breakouts and my skin felt nice while I was using it. I even slathered on a thicker layer some days to use as a mask or sleeping pack<\/a>, and it was nice!<\/p>\n

\"review<\/p>\n

If I do have one complaint, it would be that it is a tad too fragranced for my liking. There is a sharp marine scent which might be a nod to the claim of 5,000 litres of spa water in a bottle. I now prefer creams that have no scent, or a light scent or that smell natural, like the scent of essential oils. The fragrance in this one was just a bit too heavy for my liking.<\/p>\n

\n

Pros: <\/strong>Skin felt hydrated all day, Not sticky or oily, Can be used as a sleeping mask<\/p>\n

Cons: <\/strong>Fragrance is too strong, Glass jar can be unwieldy<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Biotherm has always been all about the use of thermal plankton as a key ingredient in their skincare. This helps keep skin hydrated and it seems to work. At least in this gel moisturizer.<\/p>\n

Its a decent gel moisturizer that does a decent job at hydrating the skin. Not too sticky, not to oily but just nice \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n
