Biotherm is armed with plenty of science to come up with lightweight formulas to hydrate the skin.

Perfect for people who live in humid weather and work long-hours in an air-conditioned room, like me.

Call it the more affordable and lightweight, alternative brand to La Mer.

After using this Pure.fect Skin Hydrating Gel, I realised that my skin is less oily (meaning it is well-hydrated and skin does not over-compensate with oils), and smoother to the touch.

It also looks calmer. Some mornings I wake up with little red bumps on my cheek.

But not anymore after I apply the gel – which is absorbed quickly into the skin – before I sleep.
