Lioele Nature for Me Skin and Cream



I got Lioele Nature for Me as part of a mystery bag sale and decided to try it. It is hypoallergenic and for sensitive skin. This line is free of alcohol, paraben, color, mineral oil, and Benzophenone.



Lioele Nature for Me Skin is actually a toner that is suppose to soothe irritation and remove dirt from pores. It is made of Ecocert certified ingredients:

The main ingredients are lavender water, sunflower seed oil, chamomile oil, green tea water, seaweed water, and organic jojoba oil. The full list:
Water, Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, PEG/PPG-17/6 Copolymer, Betaine, Sorbitol, Panthenol, Sodium PCA, Caulerpa Lentillifera Extract, Porphyra Tenera Extract, Chlorella Vulgaris Extract, Laminaria Japonica Extract, Triethenolamine, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Phenoxyethanol, Chlorphenesin, PPG-26 Buteth-26, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Critic Acid, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Fragrance, Sodium Citrate, Disodium EDTA, Magnolia Kobus Branch/Flower/Leaf Extract, Camellia Japonica Flower Extract, Nelumbo Nuciferaflower Extract, Impatiens Balsamina Flower Extract, Rhododendron Mucronulatum Flower Extract, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Aloe Arbor-escens Leaf Extract, Euterpe Oleracea Fruit Extract, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Oil , Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Extract, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Polyperfluoromethylisopropyl Ether, Poloxamer 188, Propylene Glycol

As you fan see the toner is clear and runny, but I wouldn't say it's like water. It is a little more viscous than water and it flows freely. It is light weight and hydrating when I am patting it on. Since there are no alcohols in this toner it stays on my face longer. 


Here I have a nice layer of it on my hand, I really had to rub it into my skin due to the viscosity of the toner. I would say this is a little too thick for a toner and works better as an emulsion. The toner doesn't have a scent, which is great for sensitive skin. But I have plans to use it as an essence for home made masks in the near future. My bottle will expire in less the half a year from now and I need to find creative ways to use it up.



Lioele Nature for Me Cream is a gel type cream that also helps alleviate irritated skin and hydrating using natural Ecocert ingredients.  

Similar to the toner, main ingredients are lavender water, sunflower seed oil, chamomile oil, green tea water, seaweed water, and organic jojoba oil. The full list:
Water, Butylene Glycol, Glycerin, Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, PEG/PGG-17/6 Copolymer, Polysorbate 60, Hydrogenated Jojoba Oil, Stearic Acid, Carbomer, Dimethicone, Caulerpa Lentillifera Extract, Prophyra Tenera Extract, Chlorella Vulgaris Extract, Laminnaria Japonica Extract, Stearyl Alcohol, Sorbitan Stearate, Phenoxyethanol, Triethanolamine, Chlorphenesin, Fragrance, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Xanthan Gum, Disodium EDTA, Magnolia Kobus Branch/Flower/Leaf Extract, Camellia Japonica Flower Extract, Nelumbo Nucifera Flower Extract, Impatiens Balsamina Flower Extract, Rhododendron Mucronulatum Flower Extract, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Aloe Arborescens Leaf Extract, Euterpe Oleracea Fruit Extract, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Oil, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Extract, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Polyperfluoromethylisopropyl Ether, Poloxamer 188, Propylene Glycol

The cream is very hydrating when I first put it on. As you can see it is opaque, but not completely white like most creams. It kind of reminds of me Clinique Moisture Surge. It does not leave a sticky feeling on my skin after I used it. It has a very light scent, hardly noticeable.




The cream goes no clear and absorbs fairly fast, I like to use it as a morning cream before I put on sun block and makeup. Currently, my skin is going through a dry spell and it's pretty flaky and this cream is not enough for me as a winter cream I'm going to have to use it up soon since it will expire within this year.

Overall I would say this set is more combination to oily skin. It is hydrating, but not oily so it will not clog up pores for oily skin. Unfortunately, it's currently not working for me because of my dry flaky skin. I will try it again when summer oils around and my oily skin comes back.

Side note: I wasn't planning on reviewing this line since it seems like it's being phased out. But I see a few online retailers still selling and wanted to get my review out there in case there are questions. The ones I got were expiring this year, manufactured in mid 2012 and early 2013, that's what I get for buying a mystery grab bag I guess ha ha.
