I really love this cream that I discovered by chance. It's meant for moderately to definitely dry skin, but my skin is not dry and I don't find it too rich even in summer. It melts into my skin and leaves it moisturized, radiant and plump. I've only tried one other Bioelements product (Oxygenation) and couldn't stand the smell, but that's no problem with Sleepwear

Thanks so much for posting about this one, Cadia. I have been wondering about it for quite some time now. Very Happy

Havana8, I hope you'll like it as much as I do Very Happy

I have not seen any review of it and I find it very strange because I don't think I can be the only one in love with it, can I? Anxious

Now, if only I could find an eye cream with similar effect, I would happily take a break from product hunting for a while Smile

The ingredients look good, would like to try as I am dry, but can you tell me more about the smell, please, I am so fragrance sensitive lately. When you say "no problem" with the smell, does that mean there is no fragrance or its a pleasant fragrance, I need, well, no fragrance. Thanks!

free skin care · Fri Jun 22, 2007 12:38 pm

It has only a touch of fragrance, I don't know how to describe it, but it's just from the ingredients and it's gone in seconds Smile

I'm not very sensitive to fragrance, but I can't imagine it will cause problems even though you are. The box says "no synthetic fragrance added" if that helps.

The Oxygenation cream smelled a bit burned after I've applied it, almost like the smell of some self tanners, but I've not noticed anything like that with Sleepwear.

I think the fragrance is coming from the citris oil which should be harmless. Smile

Smells like lavender to me! Nice for a "Sleepwear" product Very Happy

I have a sample of this that came in a Beauty Test Tube. It is a very thick rich cream. I don't know if it would be good for someone with oily skin or a tendency towards acne breakouts.

I have dry skin and have used it a number of times overnight (that's what I think it's for). The smell is not strong: slightly citrusy - for some reason it reminds me of cranberries. But the scent is probably due to the bergamot. I would only wear this as an overnight cream as bergamot can be photo sensitizing (make your skin sensitive to the sun).

No, it's probably not good for oily skin. I forgot to mention it, but there is a new version for oily skin.

Lunarmm, thank you for solving the fragrance mystery! I checked my EO and the smell is clearly Bergamot Very Happy

I like their Quick Refiner and Pumice Peel. I'll probably try the Sleepwear for oily skin.

I swear by Sleepwear. This product works beautifully on my skin and I have a combination oily biotype. I find the Oil Control Sleepwear isn't emollient enough, so it's probably best for much oilier skin types and/or younger skin. My teenage daughter uses the Oil Control and adores it. I never get clogged pores with the original, even in the summer time. And the scent is bergamot!

I read about "Sleepwear" in New Beauty, a magazine that is a bit hedonistic, and concentrates on the newest and best lotions and potions, and cosmetic surgery...always fun reading!!!

It was recommended as the best line of defense for women in their early 50's (that's me!), which was a surprise because I had never heard or read about it before.
I noticed someone commented that it might be a bit too rich for oily skins, so I thought I would mention that EDS carries the new non oily version as well Very Happy

Well, I'm not surprised the New Beauty magazine was touting Bioelements Sleepwear as I got the sample from their Test Tube program.

I would rely more on the real people reviews here than anything you read in New Beauty magazine. IMO, the magazine is just ONE BIG AD for many companies... I'm surprised they even charge to buy or for a subscription Wink

It's great to hear reviews of some of the other products.

Hi Havana8 Smile

I've been curious about the Sleepwear for eyes too.

I got a sample of it earlier this week. Of course, it's too early to talk about any results yet, but it sure has a great texture. It's very moisturizing and feels just as good as the original Sleepwear. Even though it's very rich, it hasn't made my eyes puffy and so far I think it's a great cream for winter season. For someone with very dry eye area this must be a very good choice any time of year, but for me I think will be too rich during summer.

Btw, I also got a chance to try the Sleepwear for oily skin and found it interesting because it felt totally different. Not bad, just so different I would never have guessed it was from the same line.

My guess is that if you like the original version of Sleepwear and want an eye product to match it, you'll probably like this one. It doesn't match the version for oily skin, that's for sure.

But then again, I'm still just working on my sample so my gabble shouldn't be taken very serious Smile

However, I do like it and will probably buy it.

I used this product one night cream ago. While it is very emollient, I did still manage to get a dry patch right between my eyebrows. I don't know if I was supposed to rub it into my skin more, but I do know that I put a lot of it on. Even when I woke up in the morning I would feel like I had just put it on! I don't know if this was just because it wasn't absorbed fully, if I had put too much on or if this was normal. I always seem to overestimate how much moisturizer I need when it comes in a jar, and I'm too germaphobic to put back what I don't need Rolling Eyes

I do think this is a good cream though, but probably just a little too strong for my skin.

Thanks for the reviews I was wondering about the sleepwear. Thank I will try it. I love the stress solutions by bioelements. It is awesome. The stress solutions has made it possible to wear my mask at work and not leave me itching and burning when I leave work. I am beginning to love the bioelement line.
Thanks again Cool

I use Bioelements Sleepwear for Eyes. I apply at night on top of the Bioelements Multi-task Cream, which I apply morning and night. The texture of both is light and applies easily.
