The light blue jelly is used as a night moisturizer
It spreads easily and melts into your skin !!
It smells sweet (like a fruit), hey it can give you a sweet dream =)
You just need 1-2 pumps and it's enough to cover the entire face
Our skin goes through a repairing cycle at night time
This process uses a lot of water and nutrients
I do not find that just using this product alone, is enough for the repairing cycle
I usually use it as a base at night then follow with another thicker moisturizer on top
You could just try using this one and see how you feel.. everyone is different
However, I recommend you to use it during winter time and at NIGHT only
I tried using this product during the summer time and it's a little too much..
It feels a little greasy...
This product does contain alcohol...
So.. you might want to consider before trying it
Those with sensitive skin should definitely try the tester or get a sample before buying

Hydration is necessary for everyone living anywhere with any skin type !
This Biotherm Gel cream is one of my favourite items that I must have on my shelf.
The green line is for normal combination skin while the pink line is for normal to dry skin.
Biotherm claims that this product can keep you hydrated for 48 hrs and that it contains no preservatives.
The price keeps on going up however...
In the States, it was $36 in Nov 2013, then now it's $47 !!
Maybe the price increased due to foreign exchange currency?
There are a few ways how I like to use this product..
1) as a night cream gel (skin care), as a day time moisturizer, it is sometimes still too much for me
2) as a primer before I apply my make up -- having a layer of hydrated skincare helps your foundation stick onto your face much better!!
3) mix it with some foundation, the ratio should be 1 to 1, then apply it onto your skin, telling yourself that you are applying skincare and not foundation, this creates a natural and sheet look which sticks very well to your face. I took a bit of Biotherm Aquasource 48h Deep Hydration Replenishing Cream mixed with a bit of MAC Fixed Fluid SPF 15. The result is great!! It's very easy to spread and very hydrating. My make up is not too thick, not too thin, of course I followed with loose powder so my make up lasts longer.
It smells refreshing, feels great and it is non-greasy too!!

This is one of Biotherm's new products !!
They had a similar one long long time ago, known as Aquasource Gel, but it was discontinued
The Aquasource Gel was very light and it's suitable for day time
The Deep Serum is somewhat similar, but it's a little thicker in texture
It contains thermal plankton, a substance found in hot springs
It also contains micro pearls to help improve brightness physically
However, oily skin people would probably want to stay away from products with pearls.. yeah.. as if your face is not shiny enough you need something to bring it out even more...
My skin stays deeply hydrated and it feels good under make up
The smell is refreshing and it is non-greasy
I usually follow the serum with a moisturizer, but I find it not really necessary
This serum itself can serve as a moisturizer
With another moisturizer on top, it might feel a little heavy
Overall, I would say that this is a lovely product and I will for sure go for seconds !!

Now that Autumn is coming, our skin is getting drier.
It is very important that we keep our skin hydrated and clean at all times!!
I have been addicted to the smell of the biotherm green line (Aquasource) for awhile ~~
This line is for normal combination skin.
Biotherm also have the exact same product (pink line) for dry skin.
The texture is a light water gel with tiny exfoliating beads.
It helps to cleanse, hydrates your skin.
At the same time, the exfoliating beads help to remove dead skin cells.
After using it, my skin feels healthy, radiant and fresh.
However, I wouldn't recommend using it every single day, cause your skin doesn't have that many dead skin cells, unless you live in a polluted country then yeah, you can use it every day.
I would recommend using this every other morning or at night.
It doesn't give my skin any irritation and the cleaning power is quite strong.
It probably won't be suitable for sensitive or dry skin.
I love this product and will get it again and again and again.
One thing to keep in mind is to NEVER use an exfoliator to remove make up !!
I know that some of us are lazy and we don't want to use a make up remover and just use a cleanser instead. Exfoliators are NOT cleansers, they remove dead skin cells by digging into your pores. When used on clean skin, exfoliators will dig into your pores and get the bad stuff out, but when used on "dirty" skin, the effect is opposite... it will dig your make up into your pores.. which isn't a good thing at all!!
Please remember that this is NOT a cleanser, it is something to remove dead skin cells ON CLEAN SKIN.
It's a good thing that Biotherm changed the price of all their cleanser and toners to be $19 from now on ~~
