Topbox is a Canadian monthly subscription service that introduces customers to beauty items. Each month you have the option of getting a surprise box or to swap it for a prive box in which all the products are from one brand and you know what they are.
This month I opted for the Bioderma prive box. I’ve really been lucky that I’ve received the prive boxes I’ve requested lately, it really makes this subscription more valuable to me.
I’m sure Bioderma needs no introduction but I know that my personal experience with the brand, specifically the Sensible H20 micelle wasn’t so positive in the beginning. Now, I’m a huge fan of the Micellar water and have wanted to try new items from this line. See my Re-Review of it here. Seeing that Topbox was offering this as a Prive, this was a perfect opportunity to try a new item as well as get something I knew I already enjoyed. Bioderma Sensibio H20 Micelle Solution
This is a favourite of many to remove makeup. I prefer just using my fingers to work the product over my skin, but the directed use is to soak a cotton pad with it. Although I would have loved a bigger size, I’m really happy with this travel size. Bioderma Sebium AKN Anti-Aging
This is a resurfacing, purifying and anti-aging treatment that reduces the appearance of blemishes and wrinkles. This is designed for combination to oily skin. Although I have dry skin, I did try a little bit it felt mattifying and not overly drying which is great. I can definitely use this while the weather is still warm as I’m finding that my skin is breaking out a bit (especially when I spend a whole day in the warm sun). It may be best for me in combination with a hydrating moisturizer. The only thing that I don’t love about this product is the scent. It sort of smells like Nair, which isn’t the most pleasant. BONUS: Free Brow Waxing and Design from Caryl Baker Visage
This is a really sweet bonus that Topbox included this month. There is a Caryl Baker Visage near my work and I’ve heard that they are great for eyebrow waxing so this a nice way to try them out. They are located in Ontario and Calgary so I’d be curious if Topboxer’s in other areas received this or a different bonus.
My Thoughts
I’m really happy with this Topbox. As I said above, the prive Topboxes have really made this subscription worth it to me over the last few months. Total Value of this box: $51.28. (I included the bonus item here because I know I’ll use it.)
What did you receive in your Topbox?
Lots of Love,

Got the same box! It’s so nice to get a full size of the Sebium AKN!!

Is the Bioderma Sebium AKN Anti-Agin just a face moisturizer or serum? Hmm not sure if I want my skincare to smell like Nair! 😛

It’s a face moisturizer but it’s a very thin consistency.
Omg it smells terribly like Nair! I can handle it if mixed with another moisturizer with a fragrance but boy is it strong.

How cute is that Bioderma bottle you got! I haven’t tried this one yet but heard so many great things about it. I am still in love with the Simple Micellar wipes so it’s hard to switch things around. Such a great items you received in your Topbox! 🙂

Thanks! I actually really just micellar water in general- I have many other brands that work for me too (LaRoche-Posay and Vichy are faves as well).
Those simple wipes are amazing! I love them as well

I am one of those that stick to one item that works best on me coz once I get breakouts or irritation, it’s hard to cure them then hyperpigmentation is just a pain too. I heard Vichy is great and yes, I love the Simple Micellar wipes as well as the Simple exfoliating wipes a lot. 🙂
