Watch out for Adverse Reaction!
I purchased this product through the Biossance website and used it twice. On the second day, I got a horrible red rash with whiteheads like blemishes/boils all over my face. If you look in the Sephora community forum, many people have had the same reaction. It is very painful and concerning. I do have sensitive skin, but thought I could try this one because it is EGW certified and Biossance markets it as good for sensitive skin. I wished I had read the Sephora community comments prior to using. If you do use this product, patch test first! Even if you don't have sensitive skin. This is a serious reaction, not a mild irritation. My doctor had to prescribe heavy duty medicines to help me heal. It is day 3, and I have still not recovered. I tried to post my experience on the review page of the Biossance website, but they have yet to publish it. I suppose I don't blame them for not wanting this graphic image of my face blemishing their pretty website with celebrities and glass bottles against beautiful nature backdrops.
