Biosphere USA | Review and Winter Skincare Regimen

My review of Biosphere USA skincare products 
By Carla Snuggs 

Hi friends! Back with another skincare review! Biosphere USA skincare products are made with all-natural ingredients and they are designed to deliver highly visible and authentically comparable results without invasive procedures. A percentage of all purchases is donated to domestic violence organizations to support women who were victims of domestic violence.  

I am always looking for clean skincare lines that actually deliver great results, so I was so thrilled when they asked me to review their line of skincare products. I spoke with experts at Biosphere and we discussed my skincare concerns. My skin is combination and I have antiaging concerns – fine lines, undereye bagginess, hormonal breakouts and dry skin. Biosphere sent out a skincare regimen that I love and I am going to share with you, but first I would like to introduce the products and my thoughts. 

I was sent Absolute Beauty GelAbsolute Beauty LotionPurifying Gel MaskAbsolute Hydromax and a brush for application of the mask. I also received a cute Biosphere headband. 

Absolute Beauty Gel  

Purifying Facial Wash that gently cleanses and removes make-up. It is perfect for oily and combination skin. It is made of peppermint extract which increases the blood circulation, and removes sebum from the skin surface while purifying and refreshing it.  

My thoughts: Absolute Beauty Gel is so refreshing and has a light, yet uplifting scent. I love gel cleansers because they have a better design for deep cleaning. I love this gel in particular because it unclogs my pores and removing excess oil and the bacteria that causes acne, yet it is really gentle and has a luxurious feel. And my skin feels hydrated after rinsing. 

 Absolute Beauty Lotion   

Refreshing Skin toner which has an astringent effect on the epidermis which helps tighten and minimize the pores. It also rebalances the skin’s pH levels and protects it from hard water’s damaging effects. Its main ingredient is Horse chestnut seed extract which is a decongesting, clearing astringent that tonifies and sooths the skin and witch Hazel Extract which reduces skin irritations.  

My thoughts: I have always heard great things about Witch Hazel so I was excited that this was an ingredient in this toner. This really balances my skin and makes it less oily. It also removes those last traces of dirt and oil and my pores feel tightened. And it does all this without drying out my skin. I will definitely keep this in my skincare regimen. 

 Purifying Gel Mask   

It is a Brightening and texture refining gel mask that purifies, refines the texture, removes all impurities and brightens dull complexions. This mask is suitable for Oily and combination Skin types. It is best for Acne prone skin to control and diminishes acne. People with active acne has shown remarkable results using this mask as it has anti-bacterial and antifungal ingredients.   

Main Ingredients  

  • • Peppermint Leaf Extract 

  • • Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) 

  • • Zinc Gluconate:  

  • • Thyme Flower/Leaf Extract 

My thoughts: For me, this mask is just as effective as when I have a peel, but without the irritation. I used this mask during a hormonal breakout and it was barely noticeable. My skin does feel brightened, tightened and smooth. This mask will definitely remain in my rotation of masks. 

Absolute Hydramax  

New age moisturizer that boosts the skin's hydration levels while preventing trans-epidermal water loss. It improves pore elasticity to retighten the skin and considerably reduce wrinkles. It is suitable for all skin types especially dehydrated skin.  

Main Ingredients  

  • • Medowfoam Seed Oil:  

  • • Edelweiss Flower/Leaf:  

  • • Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid:   

  • • Hydrolyzed Hibiscus Esculentus (Okra) Extract:  

  • • Cypress Leaf Oil 

My thoughts: Absolute Hydramax is a very lightweight moisturizer and for this reason I love applying it in the evening. I’ve noticed that my skin is as soft and hydrated as when I’ve used a sleep/overnight mask. I sleep with the AC on so I tend to wake up with dry skin. This moisturizer combats that. I love this moisturizer and use it 2x day after cleansing and toning. Although a little goes a long way, I’m going to cry when I run out of this, so I need to stock up.  

My Biosphere USA Skincare Regimen 

Step 1: Apply the Absolute Beauty Gel to wet skin morning and evening, massaging using upward circular movements. Rinse with lukewarm water. 

Step 2: Use a cotton pad to apply the Absolute Beauty Lotion gently over the face and neck morning and night. 

Step 3. Apply the Purifying Gel Mask using a brush. Leave on for 30 minutes and then rinse with lukewarm water. Only use this mask 2x per week. 

Step 4: Apply the Absolute Hydramax with a light massage on thoroughly cleaned and tone skin. 

Final thoughts: Worth every penny because I am seeing real results. The products all work well together and the regimen is easy to follow.  I am going to add in their serum as an addition to my skincare regimen.
