Two new additions to my skincare routine

Before I started beauty blogging I never thought much of French skincare brands. I know it’s hard to believe but there was a time where my skincare routine just featured one or two trusted products that I’d used since my teen years. But my oh my how that has changed since I entered the world of beauty blogger. Regular readers of this blog will know how much I love trying new skincare, which is why I wanted to share with you all two new additions to my skincare routine from French cult favourites Bioderma and La Roche-Posay.

La Roche-Posay Hydraphase Intense Serum £16.90

One thing I haven’t changed in my skincare routine for a while is the serum that I use. But I’m finding that my skin is a little drier than usual at the moment which is why I’ve been using this beauty from La Roche-Posay. Their Hydraphase Intense Serum is ideal for those of you, who like me, have dehydrated and sensitive skin. I’ve used La Roche-Posay products before and I have no idea what’s in them, but they seem to make my skin look hydrated, refreshed and just generally well nourished – which is what I want! And this serum is no different. It’s enriched with a highly concentrated blend of La Roche-Posay’s Thermal Spring Water, which is known for its soothing and anti-irritating properties, and hyaluronic acid fragments to infuse the skin with deep hydration.

I find the gel texture absorbs quickly into my skin without leaving it feeling greasy. And having it used it every morning and evening I can confirm my skin has felt more hydrated and well nourished.

Bioderma Sensibio H2O Micelle Solution Make-Up Removing Wipes £7

Back before I started beauty blogging I used to use face wipes all the time. And then I stopped. I have to admit I’ve not used a face wipe in a about three years now but what I like about these Bioderma wipes is that they’re infused with micellar solution to cleanse your skin while removing the day’s dirt and makeup. I also love that they’re so convenient to use. When I’m in a rush I can just grab a wipe and know that I’m cleansing as well as removing my makeup before moving on to applying my moisturiser.

Both products are available on Escentual.
