Review: Biotherm's sparkle cream

Filed under: Skin Care, Product Reviews

Biotherm | After Sun Sparkle Cream
I was pleased as punch to find a package at my door from Biotherm the other day. The product they sent me was from their After Sun line called sparkle cream, which is an intense body moisturizer that illuminates and gives skin a toned and healthy glow.

I cracked open the jar of cream and was expecting something heavy and greasy -- what I got was the exact opposite. I was happy to discover that the lotion wasn't at all greasy and was light in weight and in fragrance too. The lotion passed the first test with me, but how would it fare on the sparkle factor test?

The sparkle factor test isn't an easy test to pass, but Biotherm nailed it and got an "A." What I love about the sparkle in this cream is that it has tons of sparkle without looking like I am on my way to a disco. I found myself mesmerized by my own legs during a meeting and fascinated with the sparkle on my hands while I was pumping away on my laptop.

I probably got a bit carried away with the cream, as I applied it to my whole entire body. I would recommend using a little on your legs, chest, and shoulders. I found that the glow on my shoulders really accented my bone structure and muscle tone, a very nice look for tube tops and strapless dresses.

Biotherm's sparkle cream isn't all about sparkles and good looks. The product is enriched with Pure Extract of Thermal Plankton, Pro vitamins B5 and E and trace minerals to soothe and promote cellular regeneration in sun-damaged skin.
