Product Review: Biotherm Aquasource Nuit - Super hydrating

What is it? 

Aquasource Nuit is Biotherm's high density hydrating jelly meant to be used at night (a.k.a moisturiser). According to the description on the box, our skin loses the most water during the night. The main active ingredient used in Aquasource Nuit is P Antarctica. It is an micro-organism with the ability to retain its water in icy conditions in the Antarctica. The extract of P Antarctica concentrated in Aquasource Nuit help the skin's regeneration while maintaining optimal hydration. 

How much is it? 

It retails for C$48 for  50 ml bottle.  I got mine for around C$50 as part of the Aquatrio promotion at Sears.

Where to get it? 

All leading drugstores and department stores carry Aquasource Nuit. Look out for the Aquatrio promotion for great deals. Aquatrio contains the cleanser, toner and moisturiser for just C$50!

How to use 

Apply small amount to entire face and neck. Use at night.


My experience

I have been using Aquasource for a while. I thought I would give Aquasource Nuit a try since the store ran out of Aquatrio with aquasource. I was a little hesitant at first as I was worried that the richer formula would result in an outbreak. Aquasource Nuit is actually pretty light in texture and smell. It is quickly absorbed by my skin and leaving it soft and supple within seconds of application. I have used it for 2 days and my face feels nice and soft the next morning. So far, I have not had a breakout so that is a good sign.


My verdict

I like the bottle and how it dispenses the hydrating jelly. It is so much more hygienic than Aquasouce where I have to dip a finger into the bottle. I also like the texture, fragrance and how quickly the product is absorbed. Most importantly, I like the effect the next morning. My face feels more hydrated than using Aquasource.

I definitely recommend using Aquasource Nuit at night. I will continue using Aquasource Nuit every night until I finish this bottle.
