Biotique Bio Almond Overnight Therapy Lip Balm : Review and Swatch

Hello everyone!

Today I’ll be reviewing a lip balm from Biotique. I purchased it long ago after reading Arshita’s review on Biotique nourishing aloe vera lip balm. She gave it a 5/5 rating and I really wanted to try these out. However, I picked the almond variant instead of aloe vera one.

Price : Rs.99 for 16 g

Biotique Bio Kajal Review and Swatches

by Harini

Hello girls,
Kajal is one thing that every girl starts her makeup journey with. These days you get kajal in so many brands not only Indian but even in international brands. Today I am reviewing Bio Kajal from Biotique. I brought this along with Bio Morning Nectar during my H&G visit. This is my first product from Biotique. Scroll further to find how this Kajal fared.

Price and Quantity:

Rs. 99 for 3g/0.2 oz.

My Take on Biotique Bio Kajal:

The Bio Kajal comes in a plain black twist up bullet case. Nothing fancy about the packing. I have been carrying this in my handbag and its absolutely mess free. The outer cap is intact. Coming to the consistency, the kajal is very smooth to apply. When I applied it to my lower lash line, it smoothly glided and the best part was it did not irritate my eyes(due to its herbal ingredients).

Before this, I was using Himalaya Kajal. My girl… it stung my eyes so badly. Literally I was in tears every time I applied Himalaya kajal. With no choice left, I had to throw it in dustbin. Now I am glad I found the right kajal for everyday use.

This kajal does not have any smell. Now speaking about the smudging part, this kajal is a charm!! It did not smudge for 4-5 hours. After that it smudges very little. I am ok with that as far as I don’t get a thick layer below my waterline. Quite easy to remove also. Just couple of swipes with cleansing milk is sufficient to remove even the last trace of this Kajal. Overall this is a decent product for decent price.

Why I like this Kajal?:

  • Goodness of Almond Oil
  • Does not sting
  • Glides smoothly
  • Instant sparkle to eyes
  • Best for daily use
  • Sturdy packaging
  • 3 g will last long
  • No need to sharpen
  • Travel friendly
  • Easily available in super markets

Why I don’t like this Kajal?:

  • Not suitable for heavy eye makeup

MABH Rating: 4.2/5

So Do I Suggest this Kajal?:

I do suggest this for college and office goers who prefer subtle yet defined kajal.

Will I Repurchase?:

Not immediately. This one will last for many more months. I have to look for an intense and heavy kajal.

Biotique Bio Aloe Vera Nourishing Lip Balm Review

Hello everyone, hope you all are doing well since the hot summer is eventually leaving its place to the lovely rainy season. No matter its summer or winter or rainy season, I always need lip balm for my lips (my lips get dry all the time). I have tried many lip balms of different brands, and today I will be reviewing a lip balm from Biotique with SPF 30 UVA/ UVB Sunscreen.

Price and quantity: 

Rs. 99 for 0.6 oz. /16g.

 

My Take:

This lip balm is a gel type consistency and its color and texture is just like pure aloe vera gel. It comes in a not too small yet very cute green jar which is the typical jar type of this brand. It has an extra cover under the lid which I find fascinating (don’t know why). Only a little amount does all the work; so 16 g will go for a long time.

Its consistency is very thick (thicker than aloe vera gel) which is good. It stays for really long time unless you eat and wash your mouth. It claims 100% Botanical Extracts, which is proven in the ingredients list, and also after using it I felt the same.

I am using it for the last two weeks, till now it has cured my chapped lips (due to staying long time in air conditioned room). I have worn it outside also, though I don’t know how much it works as sunscreen. But it did not heal my sunburned lips till now (maybe I am judging too soon). Overall, I love it; if I finish it before winter, I will definitely buy another one.

 

PROS:

  • Gel like consistency yet, very thick.
  • Cured my chapped lips.
  • Cute jar packaging.
  • Extra lid for protection.
  • Inexpensive.
  • 100% herbal.
  • Good quality brand (I have previously used hair products of this brand).
  • Staying powder is excellent.
  • 16g is a lot amount, for small amount is enough.

CONS:

  • There is none. I simply love it.

 

Rating: 5/5

 

Do I Recommend?

Yes, definitely. I am sure you will love it too.

 

Would I Repurchase?

Yes. Right after I finish this one.

Biotique Bio Coconut Whitening and Brightening Cream Review

Hi sweeties,

Have you ever had an experience like this? You desperately want to try a product, so you keep searching and searching for that. You long for that one, but you don’t find that anywhere. You ride so many kilometers for that, you order that product in different places with a hope to get it soon.. Finally, you have that one in your hand after paying extra bucks for that. You have poured your heart over that, but it cheats you without any honor.. EXACTLY this one is.

Price and Quantity:

Rs.199 for 50 gm.

Shelf Life:

3 years

My Take on Biotique Bio Coconut Whitening and Brightening Cream:

WHITENING AND BRIGHTENING  are the words I fell for (I know stupid me!). I had so many acne scars on my chin, which looked nasty. With an effort to clear them all, I went ahead with this.

To be frank I don’t even like to write a review for this product. But this is just to share my worst experience. First of all coming to the packaging, this is nothing fancy. Typical boring Biotique packaging. It has a wide mouth and one has to dip their fingers to take out the product. I know many of you girls will hate it.

Seriously telling, it doesn’t do even a single thing that it claims. I really had some great expectations on it. It’s a very thick cream that hardly smells of coconuts. It has some type of minty smell. Though it gets absorbed easily, it leaves an oily cast. Use how many ever tissues to blot, still you will have tons and tons of oil on your face.

  • Read: Fair & Lovely Anti Marks Fairness Cream Review

Even the driest of all will feel it heavy. Just like you applied GREASE! NO WHITE. NO BRIGHT. The first day I applied it at night, it did not break out. Second day no, third day no. finally after a week this darling showed its work. Yes, I got 10 pimples all over my face.

Oh god, I was crying, shouting, what not? Still I dared to use it the next day. Again I broke out. It made my skin so worse than ever . My dark spots tripled up. That was the day, I chucked it up somewhere inside my drawer. I don’t use it anymore. Girls, I warn you don’t ever try this culprit. I know I sound very arrogant but it did nothing other than making me feel sick and dull with more and more spots. :( :( :(

 

PROS:

  • Seriously, nothing!

CONS:

  • Inconvenient packaging
  • Does nothing that it claims
  • Makes you look oily and dull
  • Breaks out so badly
  • Strong mint smell
  • Waste of money

 

Rating: 0/5 ( You deserve it!)


Do I Recommend?:

No, never!

 

Would I Repurchase?:

I wont.
