What are the differs between the aqua non-stop eyecream and the D-stress one? When I ask the people on my biotherm counter, they only tell me that aqua non-stop is voor hydrating, and D-stress is for destressing (DUH!). But how do you know which one you need? If you have puffiness you can't use the aqua non-stop cream???? And from the Source therapie line, I can see 2 different bottles, or is it just an error on the site ( www.sasa.com)? Are there any differences between the 2?

Hey Chelsea, I've got a couple more questions for ya.
Can you recommend a good exfoliater from this line. I am constantly getting dry around my nose area and I have been using St. Ives Aricot Scrub everyday but it doesn't seem to be working. Also, are there any good masks for dry, dull skin? I am putting together an online order. So far I have Biosource Softening Cleansing Foam for Dry Skin, Biosource Softening Lotion for Dry Skin and the Source Therapie Skin Perfector.
Thanks, Chelsea!

I use Age Fitness day cream & Biosensitive Eye cream and I think they are great products!
Do you know if Biotherm has a foaming cleancer that is suitable for eye area?

I used some biotherm skincare products 2 years ago I think. I didn't like it one bit. I have combo skin and used a cleansing foam + lotion (green bottles - sorry, can't remember the names). It felt like it was all alcohol and made my skin feel dry.

I'm interested in this line too. Hoping someone could recommend some products for me. I have extremely sensitive (get eczema too), dry, but also extremely break out prone skin. My face is often red and itchy and very dry.
I was on accutane for acne and just got off it in Feb. It totally cleared me of active pimples (just not scars, redness, etc..) But lately ive been getting pimples!  No idea why...i seriously hope my acne is not coming back.
anyway...back to the biotherm, could someone recommend something for me? Thanks!
Oops..one more thing: Do their cleansers effectively remove make up as well? Or do u need something separate for that? Thanks again!

I heard so many good things about Biotherm, I just went crazy and ordered some things to test.
I really want to get one brand for everything.. I am tired of having mismatched products everywhere.
I got:
CELLULI-CHOC 200ML
SOURCE THERAPIE 30ML
SOURCE THERAPIE EYE 15ML JAR
BIOPUR PORE REDUCER 30 ML
HYDRA DETOX MASK 75 ML
Wish me luck! I will be sure to let everyone know how their products work for me.

OK, since I'm rather ignorant re: Biotherm and have NOOOOOOO idea where to start. What would you guys/gals recommend? There's 5 pages of stuff on Sephora!!

Typical Combination, oily in the T-zone
It's been a rather difficult search of mine to find a moisturizer that doesn't make my face too oily, Cetaphil face wash so far has been the only cleanser that doesn't dry my face out something fierce. I have breakouts esp. during that time of the month but usually it's only 2-3 at a time.
Thanks Chelsea for your reccs!!! /hugs you/

I'm really liking the Source Therapie, I notice a tremendous difference in my skin after using it for about a week--much brighter complexion and my pores seem less noticeable.
I'm using a sample of the Oleo Source moisturizer for Combo/Normal skin, and so far it's wonderful. And smells soooo yummy!

Julie- I use St. Ives Apricot Scrub as well... but it's extremely harsh... I really suggest using it only 2-3 times a week. This may be the cause for those dry patches around your nose. To correct this problem before you buy into the Biotherm line, just try applying a heavy cream to those spots at night. HTH.

Chelsea,
I have a few questions about this as well, I have dry skin so I guess I will go with the (pink) I do get a few belimishes but not enough to call my skin combo, I think? I also would like a good skin brightner which I know Biotherm has a few which one do you reccomend? Like Julie said, Cleaner, toner, moisturizer ( which leads me to my other question, I use the Becca foundation in which I use the luminous skin colour which also acts like a moisturzer would that affect the Biotherm line? I guess I could use 2 moisturizers? Never the less I want a good cleaning skin line... TIA

I know they do different things but which is a better product to have?
Source Therapie or the Hydra Detox Mask? Which makes the most and better difference to skin in the long run?

Ok Dopesickgirl you have to tell me what you use and what type of skin you have as you and Prettykitty have perfect skin and both reccomend Biotherm! Which products do you reccomend the most? I have combination skin which tends to be dryer but i wear an oil free moisturiser from Lush under makeup as along with Fix + it makes a great base for Studio Tech foundation, so i think i don't want to change that part of my skin care regime but i'm open to other types of reccomendations;
