La Roche-Posay Review

I've been using the products for a while now, and I'm pleasantly surprised! Even though the packages are small, I can get a lot of use out of it.
I will do separate review on each of the three products I bought. And remember, this is just my personal experience with the products and my opinion on how they work FOR ME! It will not work equally well for everybody.

It is also important for you to know, what skin type I have:
I have combination skin with oily tendencies and the occasional spots and blemishes. Further more, my skin is rather sensitive and I break out quite easily. It doesn't tolerate sun as well, and I have freckles. Therefor I'm prone to a red-ish skin tone.

So here it comes:

 Physiological Micellar Solution

This is a gentle cleanser for sensitive skin, with thermal spring water. I use it in the morning to cleans the skin after sleeping. The consistency is very much like water and I really like that, it feels light on the face. It cleanses what it is suppose to, but I don't think it does that much really. It might not be worth your money, and I prefer the Vichy Normaderm one instead and use it as a toner.    

Hydraphase Intense Legere

This product I really like. It is a moisturizer I use before bed, and it sinks into the skin very quickly and you get a refreshed feeling at once. 

It is formulated with Hyaluronic Acid Fragments to infuse and lock water in for long-lasting hydration. This actually works! It is suitable for sensitive skin with dry tendencies. 

I would recommend this if you have dry skin and need to hydrate it before applying your regular night-cream. 

Effaclar K

This is my favorite and a cream made especially for oily skin and people with irregular skin tone and texture. It has micro-exfoliating actions that unplugs pores and keep the skin matt for a lot longer than normal creams. With regular use it decreases the number of future spots.

I use it under my make-up every morning, and it keeps my skin more even looking and less oily. This is a great product and a little goes a long way!

Overall about the products:

I'm really satisfied with these products and the fact that it is a pharmacy brand. Also they don't contain soap, alcohol or parabens. Most of La Roche-Posays product have a balanced PH, with is great for sensitive skin and people who are prone the acne. 

I love the packaging. It looks really official and clean. I know this is easy to do and doesn't say anything about the products inside, but it sure doesn't hurt to keep it simple and pretty. 

But. Yes there is a but. I don't really like the smell. They smell very clean, but I don't really like it. It's very hard to explain, but it doesn't smell like regular face products. More like a pharmaceutical product. 

Anyways. Who cares about the smell, as long as the product works? 

So, this was my review. Hope you found it helpful, and remember this is just MY opinion. You may not like these products as much as I do, and maybe it breaks you out. You have to test them yourself and not just take anyones word for it.  

If you want more reviews, just tell me, and I'll see what I can do. 

Love, Christine
