Alverde Aqua Gesichtswasser Meeresalge-face toner Alverde Aqua dm drogerie wm

 Today’s review is about Alverde Aqua Gesichtswasser Meeresalge face toner for normal and mixed complexion, which is the second element of my daily routine. I try to have as many face cosmetics as possible from one brand if all of them are decent. I’m hopeful that I minimise allergy risk in doing so.

Alverde is one of my favourites from DM – a German beauty supermarkets with great quality products. I already recommended some of their products, and I have some more coming up for review – watch this space.

Alverde brand products are vegan and have been dermatologically tested. In most cases, they have organic ingredients and natural oils-see Ingredients below for this face toner.

Balea Creme Shower Body Wash With Marula Oil and Milk Protein

Balea Creme Dusche Oel DM 2

Copyright © 2014-2015 Elkapatelka

Brand: Balea dm drogerie
Category: shower crème
Name: Creme Ol Dusche
Country origin: Germany
Size: 250ml

Price: ca EUR 2

Opinion of the product:  It is another lovely product from dm drogerie -Balea brand shower oil with almond scent.

Consistency of this shower crème is a bit like a vanilla pudding: creamy, silky and leaves smooth film on the skin after showering.

It is an excellent product for a dry or normal skin in winter time, when one needs more moisturizing and tends to dry out quicker under heavy jumpers and temperature differences. Lets make sure that we use oils, oil showers and moisturizing products over those cold months. Balea has milk protein and marula nuts oil to help your skin looks better.

Dry Skin Shower Oil Balea

 

Duschöl shower oil Balea

Copyright © 2014 Elkapatelka

Brand: dm drogerie Balea
Category: shower oil
Name:Balea Duschgoel -shower oil
Country origin: Germany
Price: ca €2
Size:250 ml
Elka’s rating:4

Opinion about the product: Very nice smell of Balea Duschöl convinced me to purchase it. As any other dm drogerie product, it is cheaper and high quality shower oil in comparison to brand products like Nivea.
More than 70% of the oils in the product are vegetable oils. It does not contain paraffin oils, but it does contain vitamin E. You can feel that while having a shower, it leaves the skin well moisturized, and you don’t need to apply a body lotion.
