Hey guys,
With winter being so harsh this year, my oily skin is becoming dry instead of combination. This is the reason why I wanted to switch things up and try out a new cream for my skin. Today, I will review the Bioderma Atoderm Crème. Keep on reading if you want to know how this crème worked for me.

Packaging:
The packaging is quite basic. This cream can be used for the face and body, but if you look at the packaging, it looks like some normal hand or body cream.
Texture:
The texture is creamy and thick. It is a white coloured cream which has a very thick consistency and once you blend it out, you can feel the oil sinking in your skin.
My Experience with Bioderma Atoderm Crème:
The product claims are incredible and the lady at the counter was going all gaga about this product. Since my skin has been hating me lately, I have been constantly breaking out plus my pores look huge. Other than this, it is quite dry this winter. My skin usually gets into the combination type mode during winter, but this is the first time it has become so dry. I needed something different in my skincare routine which is why I picked up this cream. It is made for dry to very dry – sensitive skin types and it can be used on babies, children, adults and face plus body.
I have been testing this product out for some time now, and I haven’t seen any changes yet in my skin. It does nourish the skin, but it feels a little sticky for few minutes post application. The bottle is quite huge and you need a pea sized amount for the entire face and neck. I have been using it on my hands too and it did nourish my hands pretty well. There is no fragrance in this cream which I absolutely love. I hate the fact that it has mineral oil in it because on my oily skin days, mineral oil sometimes breaks me out.
So far, the cream hasn’t healed my blemishes or done anything for the skin other than hydrating it. The day I skipped this cream, my skin was back to the dry phase. Maybe the cream is going to take months to show what it claims. But I have to say that if you have combination skin or dry skin, then you should use this twice a day religiously. I am going to continue with this cream in my routine because it feels light, nourishing and does not break me out at all.

IMBB Rating:
