That means: our face in the spotlight!<\/p>\n<p>This company, called <strong>DECIEM<\/strong>, owns various lines, but I am going to write about \u201c<strong>the Ordinary<\/strong>\u201d. What is the main feature of the Ordinary?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Highly effective<\/strong> ingredients at <strong>highly affordable prices<\/strong>!<\/p>\n<p>Since the offer is quite extensive, I will tackle only two in each post.<\/p>\n<p>Presenting today: The <strong>Buffet<\/strong>, a serum, and <strong>Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA<\/strong> a cream that goes on our skin as the last step of morning and evening routine.<\/p>\n<p><strong>BUT<\/strong>: I have co-presenters: two of my three daughters!!! One of them, Gabriella, is sitting with me in the above picture. They have been using the products for three months and are quite enthusiastic about them, although, I have to add that my son is also thinking of using them.<\/p>\n<p>Let me start with <strong>Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1625 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/adelesbeautyblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/OrdinaryPflege_Buffet-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/adelesbeautyblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/OrdinaryPflege_Buffet-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/adelesbeautyblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/OrdinaryPflege_Buffet-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/adelesbeautyblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/OrdinaryPflege_Buffet-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/adelesbeautyblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/OrdinaryPflege_Buffet-1170x878.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/adelesbeautyblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/OrdinaryPflege_Buffet-585x439.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>The cream is, like the name suggests, mainly a moisturizer. It contains the most important substances that keep the skin hydrated and supple.<\/p>\n<p>With the words of the producer: <strong>Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA<\/strong> offers a protective barrier against surface hydration loss through an array of amino acids, triglycerides, urea, ceramides, phospholipids, glycerin, saccharides, sodium PCA and <a href=\"https:\/\/adelesbeautyblog.com\/en\/encyclopedia\/hyaluronic-acid\/\" target=\"_self\" title=\"It is a polysaccharide, to be precise a \u00a0glycosaminoglycan which is an essential component of the so-called of the extracellular matrix in almost all vertebrate animals, including humans.

We find the\u2026\" class=\"encyclopedia\">hyaluronic acid<\/a> which are components found in the skin and collectively referred to as Natural Moisturizing Factors.<\/p>\n<p>This moisturizer contains indeed an impressive array of substances. And still more impressive is the <strong>price<\/strong>: <strong>100 ml<\/strong> cost <strong>7,70 \u20ac!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Still, as it is the last step of the skincare routine, although it feels lightweight, once settled your skin may feel a little sticky. It varies, of course, with the climatic conditions and it pays to use the product sparingly.<\/p>\n<p>My skin is theoretically a combination type but it does not get more oily because of this moisturizer. My daughters, Gabriella and Isabella, have normal skin (really lucky ones!) and wear it beautifully.<\/p>\n<p>The only thing missing from this cream are the antioxidants, which are also very important for our skin. BUT NO WORRIES: as the Ordinary offers various serums to combine \u2013 actually to layer on the skin before the last-step-moisturizer, it is really not a problem!<\/p>\n<p>Here is <strong>what I like:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Excellent combination of moisturizing and skin-replenishing ingredients.<\/li>\n<li>Lightweight but really hydrating \u2013 which is the main claim of the product!<\/li>\n<li>Very affordable \u2013 again: 100 ml 7,70 \u20ac and 30 ml (if you want to try it) 5,80 \u20ac<\/li>\n<li>Fragrance free<\/li>\n<li><strong>A TUBE<\/strong>!!
