hello, all!

I'm currently using decleor balme essentiel in the evening (rotating with my usual moisturizer), and loving it so much. It made my skin so much better... (clearer, smaller pores) In the daytime I'm using neroli + moisturizer.

I'm so impressed by essentiel balm, so i'm thinking of using decleor balms for night care regime instead of usual moisturizer.

I'm thinking of rose d'orient balm (2 weeks rose d'orient + 2 weeks essentiel rotation) because my skin is quite sensitive (irritated easily and weak barrier) and dehydrated.

But on the other hand, my skin is quite acne prone (not serious, but sometimes small whiteheads, clogged pores), i'm also thinking of using ylang ylang balm (instead of essentiel balm, which is almost empty now)...

I cannot decide because all balms sound so wonderful...

also have you tried decleor harmonie jour cream? if so how would you compare it with hydra floral cream (I have it, and use it on & off, but I suspect that it is very slightly irritating)?

Sorry for so many questions but it would be so nice if you could help me decide! TIA Smile

Yes Yes Yes. I thought it was only me, since decleor tends to get good reviews. The hydra floral makes my cheeks red and blotchy. However, I am prone to rosacea.

My sister has severe eczema and the harmonie cream really soothes her. I've sneaked some, it feels a little bit thicker than the hydra floral, but its not moisturising enough for me (I have dry flaky cheeks).

Well I find the harmonie soothing and not irritating but it's only marginally more miosturising than the hydrafloral.HTH

I find the Floral to be too scented and not as comfortable as the Harmonie. I LOVE the harmonie, have used it for ages... it is soothing and moisturizing and by the sound of your skin it should be very good for you.

I would not get the ylang ylang balm if I were you, it can be drying for your skintype - definitly a good idea to use both the rose d'orient and the essential balms...both are fantastic and work wonders. I use them both.

good luck wave
