Asian skincare brands have really taken off in the Western market. We’ve seen brands come across the pond and become easily accessible from UK online retailers, Bio-Essence is one of them! They are Singapore’s bestselling skincare brand, so I was intrigued to try their latest launch, the 24k Bio-Gold Miracle Finisher.
To be applied after moisturiser, the Miracle Finisher promises to protect the skin against harmful pollution and pore clogging makeup ingredients. I can imagine this would be ideal for those living in a city or even a someone who must wear heavy makeup daily.
I used the Miracle Finisher as a primer before makeup, I found it instantly smoothed out the skin and glided over any texture I had. This created the perfect base for my makeup to adhere to. It feels weightless on the skin, unlike some primers I have tried before.
The silicone texture feels like it’s creating a barrier over the skin, locking your skincare routine and moisture in, while blocking out the pollution. I imagine the Miracle Finisher would be amazing in the winter too, it would create a weightless barrier between your skin and the cold winds.
Its ingredient list contains dimethicone, a silicone ingredient, so if you prefer non-silicone primers, you might want to give this a miss. I also don’t think it would be ideal for those with extremely oily skin. However, I would highly recommend this for those with normal, combination or dry skin.
The Bio-Essence 24k Bio-Gold Miracle Finisher is £29.99, but as it acts as a final skincare step and a primer, I think the price isn’t too bad. I’d like to try more from the 24k Bio-Gold range, especially the Gold Water, which looks very intriguing!
