Alverde Alpenrose Products Review

You remember when I bought these:


Well.. I had to return them..

I had a severe reaction to the night cream and serum.. My face turned fire red and started burning.. I didn't do anything else differently. I removed my make up with my usual cleanse off oil and washed my face with my Clarisonic and then I put the cream on..

I makes me quite sad, cause I love Alverde. I used the day cream one time before without washing my face in advance and it was fine.. I'm sure the product is good and suited for normal skin or slightly oily skin, but it definitely isn't the right cream for people with sensitive skin..

So, as much as it pains me, I wouldn't recommend it to people who have sensitive skin.

Any of you tried it? What are your experiences??

Love,
Guinevere

I had a similar reaction with the eye makeup remover, made me look all puffy and swollen :(

I have combined - oily skin and I just bought the serum have been using it 3-5 times a week either in the morning or evening (depending on when I remember) after which I use my normal uriage face cream.

So far it doesn't oily up my skin or affecting it in anyway :)

I am still contemplating on finding another serum for my oily skin that I can wear during the day too (like this one)

Have you found another more suitable serum ?

For skin I highly recommend Uriage my dermatologist recommended this cream and this is the only face cream which I use it does wonders on the long run :D
