Augustinus Bader The Rich Cream

[bebarkered]

Has anyone tried this cream?

Yes, I grabbed it out of my Liberty advent calendar early because I was so keen to try it! It didn’t really do much for me though - I got a couple of blackheads too. I think it was too rich for my skin tbh - I have ‘normal’ skin and don’t need that level of moisturisation. I think if you have dry skin it would be lovely. I may use it again occasionally if my skin dries out a bit in winter, but for me it wasn’t the right product. I’d be interested to try the ‘regular’ version though.

I have and unfortunately I loved it, made my skin completely even and smooth.

I had a sample and it’s too expensive for me to use regularly. I’m not using the Victoria Beckham priming moisturiser which has higher levels of the active ingredient and is made with AB, it’s lovely and glowy and a bit lighter than the rich cream. It’s also cheaper!

Thank you so much MinesaBottle
I've just bought it, so, I haven't tried it yet. Just a question for when you have time, it says cleanse then apply the cream. Does it mean cleanse with a cleanser, or, wash your face then apply it?! I ask as I'd usually double cleanse using a cleanser then tone. It doesn't say tone before application of the cream, so, I thought I'd better miss this step x

Not sure - I used my normal cleanser then applied. You don’t need a toner or serum or anything though - it is rich!

Thank you so much! Going to use it for 27 days as recommended and see how it goes x

If you have that kind of budget I would use Biologique recherche
It has transformed my skin, cult french brand
All my rich friends are now converts but it is v v expensive. My skin is better now than it was 10 years ago, as my sister says I stopped aging and given that that I have LOTs of bad habits its fairly miraculous. My sil who is a consultant dermatologist started using it after the affect on my skin and also when all her colleguess at work started to too

Thank you so much for this tip. I'm going to research Biologique Recherche now x

I got it with my Liberty Calendar as well. I bloody love it and im going to have to re-purchase. I cleanse my face with my usual Murad cleanser and then put on the Bader cream. No need for toner, serum, retinol - just that one cream. Its made my hyperpigmentation reduce and my skin has never look better. Its going on my Christmas list!

I've read some fantastic reviews about it

Is BR only available from salons? I can't seem to find any online stockists.
