Singaporean company. The only reason I even tried this brand is because Caroline Hirons Cult Beauty Box had the Bio-essence Hydra Tri-Action Aqua Droplet Sleeping Beauty Mask.
She even likes their makeup remover.
So a brand accepted Queen Hirons is alright by me. Right ? Wrong.
The first thing I buy off this line is this, the Bio Essence Deep Exfoliating Gel. Waste of Space and Money.
Something doesn’t sit right and out of ALL the reviews this is the one that I trusted. And then this is what Paula’s Choice had to say ” Group of thickening agents used primarily to create gel-like formulations. High amounts of carbomers in a gel may result in the product rolling or balling up on skin, but this depends on other formulary steps taken to minimize this effect.”
To top it all it leaves a horrible plasticky layer on the skin. Like a heavy duty silicone primer.
It’s depressing how misleading the product is. I mean really ? This product is not worth wasting your time ‘exfoliating’. Might as well use a warm wash cloth.
Too bad found this blog only AFTER I bought it.
But while it’s not expensive, I hate buying and binning, adding to landfill. So I am going to use it on my nose and update
