SEROZINC, La Roche Posay comes to the UK

Serozinc, a product that has been talked about so much this year and last, and finally it’s coming to the UK.

Serozinc from La Roche Posay is a hypo-allergenic toner which contains only 3 ingredients; Water, Sodium Chloride and Zinc Sulphate. It is designed to reduce irritation and redness of the skin, it also reduces blemishes. I remember a few years ago when I had acne I used to spend hours on the internet trying to find ways to get rid of it and something that aways came up was Zinc supplements - whilst I didn’t try the tablets I was so very intrigued to try this product from La Roche Posay. 

The product is suitable for those with oily/acne prone skin. Whilst I no longer suffer with acne anymore I do still have the occasional break out. 

After applying my cleanser I use this product, the Serozinc toner*. It comes in spray bottle and has an instant cooling effect on the skin. The mist is very light and you only need the smallest amount, if you dont want to use it directly from the spray bottle itself you can apply it onto a cotton pad first. After this I apply a non-comedogenic moisturiser over the top, aka something that won’t clog up my skin and preferably oil free. The zinc in the Serozinc draws out excess oils in the skin. Another thing I like about this product is that fact its un-scented. 

Results wise I noticed some instantly, my face felt a lot more firm and quite matte. In the winter my skin turns quite combination so this product is ideal for those of you have have quite oils skin. After a few days use I also noticed that any blemishes I did have had reduced in size. 

I must admit, I don’t generally care for toners that much as it is another step to add to your routine but I really like the design of the Serorzinc toner from La Roche Posay. The fact it comes in a spray bottle and can be applied directly to the face in a matter of seconds definitely makes it a winner. And if it gets rid of blemishes, redness and excess oil on your skin too then whats not to love? This has definitely become my new favourite and a step I will make sure to add my routine everyday.

Serozinc will be sold on Escentual exclusively in the new year, tomorrow. It retails at only £8.50. Currently they have 20.15% off with the code ESCENTUAL2015 so you can get it even cheaper, around £6.79. You can actually pre-order it right now!

I hope you enjoyed this review, have you ever tried this product or any french pharmacy skincare?
