REVIEW || CORINE DE FARME (a bit comparison w/ BIODERMA) MICELLAR WATER

This micellar purity water is composed of micelles, small particles of tensioactives which trap impurities found the surface of the epidermis. 
These micelles effectively remove make-up and thoroughly clean the face, eyes and lips.

A naturally gentle result
Leaves skin soft, fresh and hydrated, without prickling or tightness.

Officinalis Flower Extract, Sodium Hydroxide.

 ================================================================================
basically a cleansing water without drying or irritate even on sensitive skin..
Bioderma has been my favorite cleansing water EVERR (here's my REVIEW)... because i ran out of those i might try out other product.. this caught my eye while i was (originally) searching for Bioderma, for price this is cheaper than Bioderma say.. around Idr 200k (250ml)... while this one is Idr 190k (500 ml), just make it short.. i got this because it was cheaperrr... :D

the product comes with a pump, you have to be careful not pumping it too rough, make sure to place the cotton pad not too far from the pump or else it will get messy. 2-3 pumps are enough for my whole face.

in term of cleansing Corine De Farme cleanse like Bioderma, and just like Bioderma you have to use separate eye make up remover (for me i use baby oil ) for waterproof mascara ( i used L'OREAL Butterfly Effect mascara ) and this is slightlyyyyy sting my eye when i accidentaly get some into my eye while i was cleaning my eyeliner.
- for the Hydrating part, i don't think this is hydrating enough for my skin - i have acne prone/sensitive/mature/dry skin.
-"without prickling or tightness" sorry to say i do have a little prickling and just a bit tightness after use (before i continue clean my face with facial wash).
Top :
Mascara - Loreal butterfly effect waterproof
Bottom R-L :
- Jordana 12 Hour Made to Last liquid eyeliner pencil
- Dollywink liquid eyeliner pen
- Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain
- Pixy BB Cream
my routine for night time is always to cleanse my skin twice.. with cleansing oil or cleansing water then facial wash especially when i wear sunblock and bb cream/foundation.

the one thing that puts me down when i saw the ingredients list was PERFUME.. personally i don't like my cleanser to have perfume or at least not too much, this has that sweet floral milky scent (not too strong though) and now after using it for a while the smell is bearable.

overall i think this is a pretty good product if your looking for a cleansing water as well as Bioderma
as for my skin concern i still prefer Bioderma, but this do the job just as well as Bioderma, it would have suits you if you have normal-combination oily skin.

  3. I'm quite disappointed with the product. At first I was a bit confused between Bioderma or Corine de Farme.. But the beauty advisor told me that the CDF is better because it's 97% natural and paraben free, and good for sensitive skin as well.. So i bought it (and yes it's cheaper than bioderma). I've been using it for 3 days and everytime i use it, i felt warmness on my face, and a bit itchy on my neck.. At first i thought it's okay (like my skin are adapting to a new product), and wash my face with my usual facial foam, afterward i look at my face on the mirror, i found my face turn into red (red like burning allover my face) and... I think i'm not gonna use it anymore.. Better safe than sorry.. I don't have sensitive skin, normal to dry, and no acne problems at all.. And i think it's pretty disappointing since i bought 500ml and use it for 3 times.

    1. so sorry that the product didn't work out on you, although it claims suitable for sensitive skin.. my fave one still bioderma but i'm still using corine just because i want to finish up the product and i'm combining with Bioderma..
