Biotique Bio Berberry Hydrating Cleanser
Wednesday, June 01, 2016
Hello people!
Firstly,
there remains a discrepancy between the name that this product has been given
and the method of usage that has been stated in the labelling. The product name
says that it is a cleanser, and assuming it to be a face wash, I picked it up. I’ve
tried Biotique products before and
some of them are amazing while some don’t seem to work for me. My favourite has
always been the Biotique Myristica Face pack;
I’ve restocked it so many times by now.
Biotique Berry Hydrating Cleanser comes in a cylindrical screw cap
packaging. The labelling isn’t quite appealing but that goes for all Biotique
products. The cylindrical bottle is white, while the cap is dark green in
color. It retails at INR 170 for net
content of 120 ml. It claims to cater
for all skin types.
As I
mentioned earlier, assuming it to be a face wash, I went ahead for washing my
face. When used it as a cleanser first, this product failed terribly in getting
rid of any dirt or greasiness. This made me read the directions on the product.
After reading instructions, I realized that it ought to be used post washing
the face using a cotton ball. This ironical naming was quite disappointing. If
I would have wanted a face moisturizer, than I would have looked for a labelling
that reads- moisturizer. As a moisturizer this product works well. It gives
slight moisturization without greasiness. There is a slight lemon- citrusy
fragrance in this “cleanser”. One thing that I’ve usually encountered on
application of this product is slight itchiness on my face and minute bumps
emerging, but that is perhaps because post acne attack, my skin has turned
extra sensitive and it reacts this way with a lot of cream based products. So, sensitive
skin people should complete ditch on this. I’d say, buy it if you are
looking for an everyday face moisturizer. Yet, it might not provide adequate
moisturization to dry skin ladies. For normal to oily skin, it would work
decently.
