Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I wish I would have read the reviews here before purchasing this because I did not realize that this is NOT the original Crealine/Sensibio H20. This is the "TS" version and the formulation/ingredients for this product are different. I have been using the original version for a few years now and love it. I was living in Europe and was fortunate enough to be able to get it there. Since being back in the States I've been getting it through Amazon with no problems. But the latest bottle I just received from Amazon/Omorfia Shop seemed different and so I was convinced it was a fake. Then I did some research. I read the ingredients and noticed they were different from my previous bottle - most notable was the addition of PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil. The two bottles looked almost identical except for the addition of a little pink "TS" that I had failed to notice earlier. So I went to the Bioderma France website, translated it, and realized my mistake. This isn't a fake - it's just a different product. It is NOT the original formula that is so raved about by everyone. The TS version is marketed to "very dry and sensitive" skin types. I'll describe the differences between the two versions that I noticed. I have very dry skin so you would think I might actually prefer the TS. Nope, and I'll tell you the biggest reason why - the TS leaves a sticky, sudsy residue on my skin that feels like it needs to be rinsed off. When I apply lotion after, the lotion kind of mixes in with this residue and becomes slightly "frothy" and so then doesn't rub smoothly into my skin. The TS doesn't seem to clean quite as well either, and to top it off I don't even notice any extra moisturizing benefits. Unless I guess you consider "residue" to be slightly moisturizing? With the original Crealine/Sensibio my skin feels the same moisture-wise, but much cleaner. More "fresh", like I have nothing on my skin at all. My skin also feels calmer using the original - I think there is an ingredient in the TS that it doesn't like. Hope this helps!
