bliss Fabulous Drench'n'quench Cream-to-water Lock-in Moisturizer 1.7 oz

Product Information

I still appreciate that Bliss is a cruelty free brand, with high quality items at a more affordable price point. I plan on trying some of their other products to test out soon, but unfortunately, the Drench and Quench moisturizer was not a winner for me.

Bliss Ex-Glow-Sion Moisturizer is the ideal moisturizer for all skin types, including sensitive skin, especially since it contains rosemary and cucumber extracts which help soothe the skin and minimize irritation. This vegan vitamin C serum contains 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, a stable and penetrating vitamin C derivative, and a tri-peptide to reduce the look of dark spots and discoloration and visibly firm the skin. The pads have a good amount of serum on them, so only one pad is needed per use. Each peel pad is a decent size, so you might even be able to cut one in half to make this product last twice as long. It’s a great alternative to pricey AHA/BHA peel pads like Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Peel. Milk Thistle & Passion Fruit Seed Oils: Help soothe and restore while protecting from free radicalsPromising review: "I am a religious Bioderma believer but this was rec'd to me as a near duplicate... I have to agree! I also love the price because I don't find myself savoring it so much; I soak a couple cottons with it to remove makeup before I wash my face... millions of times better than the Simple micellar water (in my opinion)." — Kelly M. Skin immediately feels soft, healthy and refreshed; within 4 weeks skin’s moisture barrier is improved They are high-quality, vegan spa-grade skincare products formulated with your skin’s health in mind.

Other than these, there’s just a little difference in the formula of both as Neutrogena is more watery in texture but that doesn’t count for me because it does not have a noticeable impact on the skin. Cucumis Sativus (Cucumber) Fruit Extract: Cucumber extract moisturizes, soothes, and minimizes irritation. Coconut Fruit Extract & Pro-Vitamin B5:Help moisturize, hydrate the skin and support a healthy skin barrier. Bliss That’s Incredi-Peel Pads did a great job sloughing off dead skin cells to reveal brighter, smoother skin. The 10% concentration of glycolic acid works effectively to refine my skin texture and tone and clarify my combination skin.Because oil-free gel creams are key when it comes to keeping oily and acne-prone skin types balanced, here's one last tried-and-true option to consider. Belif's The True Cream Aqua Bomb gives skin a hit of cooling hydration that feels lightweight even though it's loaded with moisturizing heavy hitters like glycerin, squalane, shea butter, and panthenol. You also get plenty of antioxidant protection and soothing benefits thanks to plant extracts from calendula, oat kernel, lady's mantle, and nettle leaf. Formulated with pure retinol (again, Bliss does not disclose the percentage, which I find quite puzzling, especially for a retinol product), this is an anti-aging serum that also contains the Bliss Prevent-4 complex of amino acids, peptides, squalane, and antioxidants. The serum comes in an adorable airless pump bottle and it has a smooth and lightweight texture with a slight yellow tint. I've tried many times in the past to incorporate retinol into my skincare routine but a very gentle pro-retinol essence is as close as I got. I find that like most people, I am pretty sensitive to retinol and will experience dryness with initial use. I know the sensitivities do go away but I honestly don't have the patience to slowly monitor and increase the frequency of a skincare product when it's so much easier to reach for non-irritating products that still yield great results. Anyhow, all of this is just my long-winded way of saying that I've not yet given this retinol serum a try and probably won't for the foreseeable future. Great review, I know...... Pineapple & Papaya Enzymes: Gentle and non-abrasive fruit-based exfoliants that help loosen dead skin cells for easy removal. Niacinamide:A multi-benefits active that helps to brighten the skin, even out skin tone, increase ceramide production for a strong skin barrier, and smooth the look of wrinkles and fine lines. It even helps to balance sebum (oil) production in the skin. I will say that I didn’t experience any breakouts while using this, so if you have acne prone skin, I think this is a safe bet. It also didn’t irritate my sensitive skin at all, even though it was so heavily scented.

With thiscontext in mind let's see what THDA might be able to do. First, it is stable (if pH < 5), easy to formulate, and a joy to work with for a cosmetic chemist.Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate: Tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate is a vitamin C derivative and antioxidant that supports collagen production and reduces fine lines and wrinkles while stimulating the production of new skin cells and brightening dull-looking skin.
