Bioré: Baking Soda Pore Cleanser Review

Hey guys, so Influenster sent me some Bioré goodies. I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes. I received both the Baking Soda Pore Cleanser and the Baking Soda Cleansing Scrub, which are new products that Bioré released this year! I love Bioré! I love their strips that they have! They work really well, so when I received these products, I was so excited! Baking soda actually really helps deep clean your pores, so I'm not surprised that it's a part of Bioré's line this year! This review will only be on the cleanser, so stay tuned for the review on the scrub! It should be up in a few days! So ya, let's get into this review!
The goodies that I received from Influenster!



This product comes in a regular plastic packaging with a pump. It comes with 200ml. The product itself is transparent. You can purchase this product at any drugstores that sell Bioré! I currently saw them on display at Pharmaprix, so I'm sure this is already available at most drugstores! I actually couldn't find the actual price of this product, but it for sure ranges somewhere between $8-10CAD.

The Baking Soda Pore Cleanser



I'm going to give you guys a brief description of what this product is meant to do. It's supposed to deep clean to remove dirt and impurities from your pores, while gently exfoliating away the dead cells. It's supposed to leave your skin feeling amazingly clean, soft and smooth. You can actually use this cleanser daily. It's also not rough on dry spots! It's really simple to use. All you do is wet your face with water. You pump the cleanser into your hands and work into a lather. Then, you massage it over your face. Then, you rinse. Since, it's a cleanser, you don't have to leave it on your face for long. I personally just massage my face for roughly 2 minutes, so that the product is actually working into my skin! If you really want this to be effective, of course it's best to use the scrub first and then use the cleanser!

Amazing results when you use both of them together!



I've used this everyday for 2 weeks and let me say, I do like it. My skin definitely feels really soft and clean! It's super smooth and it just looks healthy! I didn't find it rough at all. It gently exfoliated my skin. I didn't experience any redness or anything! I find one pump is more than enough to cover your whole face! It also has a nice scent to it! It's not overpowering and it just smells so fresh! Does it deep clean to remove dirt and impurities from my pores? Not really. I find when I use the cleanser on it's own, it just cleans my face, but it doesn't deep clean my pores. When you use the scrub, then yes, I find it does make a difference and you see it throughout the week. Also, I noticed that when you use warm water, it works better to somewhat clean your pores. When you use cold water, then yes, you get that nice cool feeling, but it doesn't do much to your pores. So ya, if you really want to deep clean your pores, you're going to need more than this cleanser. However, this stuff is also amazing when it comes to removing your makeup! I love to cake my face and sometimes, I have to  apply the cleanser twice to take everything off. With this cleanser, I got everything off in one try! Also, when I use cleansers, I normally have to apply a moisturizer after washing my face, because my skin tends to feel a bit dry. With this cleanser, it didn't make my skin dry at all. I can easily get away without applying moisturizer! Overall, I do love this product as a cleanser, but not so much as a deep cleanser for pores!
Another look at it!


Would I repurchase this product? Absolutely! For the price, you can't go wrong with this cleanser! I find it works effectively just like most brands at Sephora and it's like half the price of it (even more less than that!). Bioré has always been one of my favorite drugstore skincare brands and I'm glad that this product didn't disappoint me! Yes, I wish it did deep clean my pores like it says on the package, but that's why it's best to use the scrub with it for better results! As mentioned, the post for the scrub will be up soon! The reason, I didn't post them at the same time is because I want to test the scrub for 3 weeks. I wanted to try an extra week without using it with this cleanser to see if it's effective on it's own! So ya, I hope you guys enjoyed this post! Once again, thank you Influenster for sending me these goodies!
