La Roche-Posay Toleriane Fluide Review

Finding an ideal moisturizer for a combination to oily skin type is a task in itself.
There are few options in the market but they don't tackle the skin issues such skin
type people usually face.

This moisturizer (La Roche Posay Toleriane Fluide) which is French made is
specifically designed for such skin types by limiting the number of ingredients
that go in. Lot of French brand manufacture products which are not just
designed for the typical skin types(Oily, Dry, Combination) but also cater
to sensitive skin types which are apparently left out.

Price- INR 1190 for 40 ml

Ingredients - Aqua/ Water, Squalane, Glycerin, Dipropylene Glycol, Carbomer,
Sodium Hydroxide, Ethyl-Hexyl Glycerine, Caprylyl Glycol.

Product Description :

Properties - Formulated with a high concentration of La Roche- Posay thermal
spring water, Toleriane Fluide soothes the pulling , stinging and burning sensations

Non-comedogenic

My Take on La Roche Posay Toleriane Fluide (Soothing Protective Non Oily Emulsion):

Finally I came across a moisturizer which my skin seems to be in love with.
So a little brief about my skin type,which is combination cum sensitive and
acne prone too. So finding an appropriate moisturizer for my complex skin
type was a task for all these years. Though I always banked on aloe Vera gel
and Neutrogena moisturizer for that matter but they could never address some
underlying skin issues I had, like my face getting red,flaky and quite irritable
after using acne medications. So these moisturizer's dint seem to do enough for
my skin.

Toleriane fluide does the perfect job of hydrating the skin which is also the
requirement of oily skin contrary to what people believe. It seems ideal for
even combination skin type. As it is non comedogenic my skin never broke out.
I love how it instantly gets absorbed by the skin by giving a matifying look.
I use it as a daily day time moisturizer under my sunscreen from the same brand
which I will review soon. It gives the ideal amount of hydration a skin would
require during day time.

Pros :

Light weight
Non comedogenic/does not break out
Fragrance free
Paraben free
Preservative free
Matifying texture
Good for intolerant skin and also rosacea
Provides instant hydration
Best for oily/acne prone skin
Hypo allergenic
Serves as a makeup base for oily skin
Dermatologically tested
Uses thermal spring water
Easy pump dispenser bottle
Very soothing on the skin

Cons :

Availability (though available on most online shopping sites yet its not available at times)
Price for the quantity offered

TBLP Rating : 5/5

# I would still rate it 5 despite the few cons I mentioned.

Recommendations : A big yes if you are in lookout for a good moisturizer for
oily/combination skin prone to acne, which doesn't make your skin greasy and
yet provides instant matifying hydration.
