A very pleasant surprise!

I was lucky enough to be selected on a trial team for these products and I have to confess I'd never heard of the brand before!

The boxes have A LOT of french on them but the inside of the boxes have directions for application so that's handy.

I cant say enough good things about the bottles that the moisturiser and the eye cream come in! They are 40ml & 20ml respectively but the genius feature is the plastic bag inside the main bottle that ensures that no air gets in at all. Plus there's no sticking fingers in which I loathe!

The pump action is smooth and the tops lock easily which would be a super duper bonus when travelling.

It seems like only a little bit of actual product comes out but actually it's more than enough as a little goes a long way!

The moisturiser absorbs quickly and at first I thought it wasn't enough of a moisturiser for the dryer areas of my face but after a few minutes my skin felt amazing and I was really impressed.

The eye cream is a bit runnier than the moisturiser and come out quicker than expected, as with the moisturiser a little goes a looooong way so don't be tempted to do more than one pump!

At first I didn't think the eye cream was doing much for me, after a few days my eyes didnt seem to be any brighter or tighter but after a week of being a good girl and applying morning and night I could see a difference, To be fair, it was a week of terrible sleep, not enough water and eating like crap so it was certainly an uphill battle!

The price of these products may put them a little out of everyday use for a lot of people but I would definitely recommend the splurge.

All in all a thumbs up from me for both products & I'd recommend trying them together!

Tips: If you end up with excess eye cream give your neck a swipe - great for tightening the skin!

I want more of the range!

I was so pleasantly surprised by the Toleriane Ultra moisturiser and Eye Contour.

The packaging is very clinical - it looks like prescriptive skincare, very flash. Both pumps come in a box packed with information in English and French.

The products are hermetically sealed, which means there's no need for preservatives, and there's no chance of oxidation or contamination. This alone sets them apart from other sensitive skin products.

I used these products while having a bit of a hayfever/pollen related episode. My eye area was dry and flakey, and so irritated. The eye cream was just lush to use - so soothing and healing, my eyes felt better after the first use, and after twice daily use for 2 days they were back to normal.

Both products apply evenly and smoothly and absorb really quickly.

The moisturiser leaves skin smooth and creates a great base for makeup.

I think the price is pretty fair for such well formulated products and if you do have sensitive skin you really should give them a try.

Tips: Open the Eye Contour cream for more instructions on the inside.

This duo is dynamite

This came at the perfect time. Having sensitive skin and allergies I was so delighted to get picked for this trial - thanks BR!

My skin is very temperamental I have to be so careful with what I use and test everything. I have been hospitalised by a sunscreen so although some think all skincare is the same it really isn't.

I actually emailed LRP about samples, stockists etc and they were so good and so helpful.. they are a branch of L'Oréal too I notice so a familiar brand which is good to know. I have purchased a LRP sunscreen after testing is at life pharmacy and they have lots of other LRP testers too so if your curious definitely stop in there and go wild on the testers.

Anyhow I really rate this as a duo. Especially the intense soothing care. I was daring and didn't even test patch I just went full face with it. And no reaction as expected with a solution aimed at sensitive skin.

I am actually using this set morning and night as recommended. The best thing about the morning application is it acts exactly like my $50+ primer!! If not better! It lightly lingers on the skin and feels soft and smooth. It makes sunscreen and makeup application a breeze.

It's non greasy and lightweight but keeps a nice barrier on the skin for hours following application. The eye contour soothes and cools and soothing care formula works quickly to provide a moisture barrier while soothing the skin.

Packaging is very much my style simple and stylish. The modern design of the bottle is actually quite amazing - you can YouTube it even. It's got a bag inside the tube that almost shrinks down as you use it.. amazing technology - to keep your product fresh.

Love this.

Tips: Go to life pharmacy and give LRP a test. Look at the ultra hermetic video on you tube - fascinating!

Love these products!

I love both of these products! My skin is very dry and sensitive and I'm often nervous to try new products but these products were great. They didn't sting when applied and made my skin feel soft and hydrated all day and the dry patches I had, had gone within two days. I will buy these products in the future.

Ooh la la La Roche-Posay!

If you know skincare, you know La Roche Posay. The French pharmacy brand stands out in crowded beauty aisles because of its reputation for meeting the specific needs of your skin.

This duo is an eye cream and moisturiser especially for ultra-sensitive or allergic skin. With the requirements of this skin type being what they are, extra care needs to be taken when selecting skin care as one wrong ingredient can set off a reaction. LRP have provided two products with none of the irritating stuff (parabens, fragrance, alcohol, preservatives, colorants, and lanolin) and only soothing, calming 'Neurosensine' and thermal spring water. Since there are no preservatives in these creams, the packaging is what keeps the product fresh. It's 'ultra-hermetic' which I think means sealed from the air, preventing deterioration. What a cool advancement in packaging!

I used both products, morning and night, and found they did exactly as promised. My skin didn't react in the slightest and was left soft and moisturised. They claim, "immediate and long-lasting relief" that will minimise the effects of sensitive skin over time. I think it's too early to tell if that's happened yet- so we'll see! So far, so good.

I am unsure if there's a need to use both products as the Toleraine Ultra states that it's for face and eyes. Perhaps you'd use the Toleraine Ultra Contour for the eye area if it was particularly irritated.

Overall, I'm more than happy with these two and I'm keen to investigate some other LRP products now...

Tips: These two were both quite light, I followed up with my usual heavier cream as the last step at night.

Amazing Duo!

I had never tried any La Roche-Posay products before but had heard a lot about how good they were on BR. When I saw the invite for this trial I was over the moon and couldn't wait to try them out. Made in France oh la la!

First the eye cream. The instructions are actually on the inside of the box, very simple to use and feels so refreshing on your eyes. It is a lovely light formula which doesn't leave any greasy feeling.

It doesn't cause any irritation or redness and makes my eye area look plump and healthy. I love the packaging, it holds 20ml of product, you simply turn the lid which opens and closes it, great for travel as it shuts securely. I like the pump, very hygienic and easy to get the perfect amonut out. A little definitely goes a long way. It has no nasty ingredients which is amazing and exactly what you want when applying around your eyes. No noticable scent.

I have quite dry and sensitive skin so this product is perfect for me, I have been using both morning and night. I can't comment yet whether it helps reduces fine lines as it is too early to tell but I really think it helps with puffiness.

A lovely eye cream, totally recommend for people with sensitive and dry skin.

Now the moisturiser. It comes in the same awesome packaging with the pump. It holds 40ml of product, once again a little definitely goes a long way. Has no noticable smell and no horrible ingredients.

It says it can be used on the eye area also which is fantastic.  I have mainly been using this one at night as it is a little bit thicker than my normal day cream and as I work in an extremely hot environment I prefer something really light during the day.

This hydrates my skin so much! It makes it feel incredibly soft and plump. I had some dry patches above my eyebrows and they literally disappeared after the first use. I feel it makes me look a little shiny which is another reason I prefer it at night. I wake up with amazing looking skin every morning. No dryness and it has not broken me out. Woohoo!

Together these make an amazing duo, if you have sensitive, dry skin I highly recommend these. The price is great and the products are amazing. Thanks BR for giving me the opportunity to trial these! Love them :-)

Hit & Miss

I love the pump applicator on both the ultra & eye contour bottles. Both are very easy to use & bottles are lightweight, making them travel-friendly.

The Toleriane Moisturiser helped with my redness and dry patches and I noticed how my skin feels dewy moments after application. However, there’s also a strange scent to it which I am not a fan of.

The eye contour, on the other hand, doesn’t really work for me. I have not noticed any difference to my skin upon using it daily.

Price for both is on the mid-expensive range. I’d rather settle for a a more affordable brand that delivers the same quality.

Great for sensitive skin

First, the packaging. I love the pump mechanism which is explained on both boxes. It ensures no air can enter the bottle, meaning there is no need for extra preservatives in the moisturiser. What a great idea!

The daily moisturiser is probably my favourite of these two products, and the one I would consider re-purchasing. It really delivers 'ultra' moisture as the label suggests.

As a duo, the two work well together. They have helped with redness and inflammation that I have on my nose. This is significant for me because my red nose is something I'm quite self-conscious about.

I had a massive breakout all over my face before starting this trial, so for people who struggle with acne or pimples these products won't make your breakouts better or worse. At least it is good to know that this duo didn't block my skin which would have made the pimples much much worse.

Tips: If you have allergic or sensitive skin, definitely try this brand next time you're in a pharmacy. It could change your life!

Intense Soothing Fluid Face & Eyes & Eye Contour

Was pretty stoked when I was chosen to review these product, to seek relief for my sensitive skin. The packaging was what I would expect of a French based company – white with blue writing that still look stylish although the setout was pretty straight forward.

What is great about this formula is that it is free of preservatives such as lanolin, perfume, alcohol, colorant and parabens. I have now been using the product every morning and night and have had no irritation at all. I did however expected the texture to be thick, like other eye creams, but surprisingly this one is very light and spreads effortlessly.

To apply, I just follow the instructions printed inside the box (only saw that by accident). I just use my ring finger and gently dab the tiniest amount of product (it really goes a long way) over my eye contour and eyelid and apply a bit of pressure from the inside of my eye outwards, finishing off with added pressure over the entire eye.

For the Soothing Fluid, I have heard and read good things about this range, but was still a bit hesitant about the all-natural products. I have used some all-natural products in the past, but unfortunately, they have not even come close to what they advertised.

The soothing fluid is slightly bigger than the eye cream, but still a decent and acceptable size to travel with. I’m happy about this as we have an overseas trip coming up soon and I was freaking out about what moisturising products to pack. Pretty sure these will be great for the carry on.

It comes little twist pump that squirts just a good about of the milky light texture, that when applying with the fingers absorbs into the skin quickly, with no greasy after-feel. I could feel my skin immediately starting to calm after application and found the fluid to be hydrating and soothed the redness around my nose and cheeks.

A week later and I am glad to report that the skin around my eyes looks and feels so nice and hydrated. I love the size especially because I have some upcoming travelling and this will make it a super travel friendly and small enough to include as a carry on.

Tips: Use alone or as a combination of the two - great for sensitive skin

Nourishing and calming

This cream is excellent, I have extremely dry skin and find it hard to get nourishing creams that do not react with my skin.this cream has cleared up the dry spots on my nose and cheeks almost completely which is so hard in the winter air. Some of the redness has died off. It melts into the skin well and does not leave any oily residue or shine. The eye cream is soft and easy to apply. It soothes and softens skin. I will continue to use the rest of the products as I think they are great. You only need a small amount to do the whole eye area and the whole face with the cream which is great value as I think they will last a long time.

Tips: A little goes a long way! Especially the eye cream, you don’t even need a full pump worth to do both eyes
