Hello my beauties, how are you doing lately? The weather outside is getting better and better each day, even though we had heavy rain a few days ago, so I’m feeling great! Especially because today I want to show you and share the first impressions on the skincare products by the famous European brand Balea. This is a very popular drugstore brand and I had a few products by Balea in the past and even talked about them on my blog, so I was super excited to show you everything I got. So let us begin!
So the very first product I want to talk about is Balea Flower Frost Body Lotion from a limited winter edition. I’m not a huge fan of rose fragrance in beauty products, but I don't feel it in this lotion, unlike a sweet fruity aroma of passion fruit, it is divine. Even though Frost Flower is a winter body lotion, the texture of the product is pretty light and even a little bit runny. It makes my skin silky and lightly moisturized, so I think I’ll be using it in the summer with pleasure. Unfortunately, I haven’t found a link on the official Balea site on this product, probably because it was a limited edition.

The next product is a Balea Handcreme 2in1 Pflege & Maske mit Macadamia - Nussöl - it is a heavy moisturizing hand cream and masks with oil of macadamia nut. I was not expecting it will be so nourishing, there is a huge amount of macadamia seed oil in this cream, I even pretend to use it in winter, when I struggle with dry skin on my knees, elbows, and feet. The product has a very pleasant scent as well, but it takes quite a time to absorb into the skin.
Balea Erfrischendes Waschgel is an everyday washing gel for a normal and mixed skin type. It has an extract of lotus and bamboo, which helps to keep a natural balance of moisture in the skin. I also found Citric Acid in the list of the ingredients, it helps to clean the clogged pores and blackheads, preventing the appearance of new ones. I`m very excited to try it out, hope it will not dry out my skin.
The Balea Pflegendes Gesichtswasser or simply a Toner by Balea is a product I already had in the past. It has no alcohol or ethanol, so even a person with very sensitive or acne-prone skin can use it daily. It has a very light and sweet scent and I love to use it as a makeup remover, because it gently and thoroughly removes the residue of makeup and oil from the skin, without drying or irritating it. I also use it after the facial mask or right after I wash my face, to help my favorite facial cream absorb deeply into the skin.
The next four items I want to talk about are four different face masks by Balea. I really love treating my skin with masks, I always forget to apply them on though. I got the one with Lavender - Lavendelmousse Maske, as I understand it suppose to calm down the irritation and heal the skin; the one with Vanilla and Raspberry - Himbeer Vanille Maske, it has an extract of shea butter, so it should moisturize the skin and prevent dryness; Totes Meer Maske or Dead Sea Mask with salt and a huge amount of useful minerals, it removes dead skin cells and opens the pores, this one I used already and I really loved it, even though it gave my skin a burning sensation (just a little bit), I think because of the sea salt. And the fourth facial mask is Feuchtigkeitsmaske or a Moisturizing Mask, with thermal water and seaweed. All the masks are vegan, there are two masks in one pack, each has 8 g / 0,0.28oz, but you can use one bag three times because this quantity is enough for three faces.
The next two items I pretend to settle in my bag, because I know I will always need them close to me in the summer. It is a small travel-sized care cream and lip balm, I haven’t found the links to these products, but I really loved them both. Fresh citrus scent and nice moisturizing abilities, it is everything I need at the moment. And just a few little words about the Balea Badesalz Sanfte Erholung ( Bath Salt Jasmine & Lilly) and a Balea Badeperlen Tiefe Entspannung (Bath Pearls Black Orchid and Vanilla). Both products are meant to deeply relax, calm down and satisfy our noses because they have a very strong and sweet scent.
And, finally, the very last, but not least product in my today's haul is Balea Augen Make-up Entfernerpads ölfrei, it is an oil-free cotton pad, which helps to remove the eye makeup without any difficulties. I’m sorry that my post was so huge today, usually, I'm a little bit less eloquent, but I hope you still liked it. Stay tuned to see the detailed review of the products from my Huge Drugstore Haul post, talk to you very soon!
Lots of love,
