Valued at C$72, this Belif value set includes deluxe sample sizes of the Aqua Bomb Jelly Cleanser (30 ml), the Aqua Bomb Hydrating Toner (10 ml), the Moisturizing Eye Bomb (5 ml), and a full-sized The True Cream Aqua Bomb (50 ml). The full-sized True Cream Aqua Bomb regularly sells for C$50 so this set makes for an amazing deal! See below for my thoughts on the individual products.

Belif | The True Cream Aqua Bomb (C$50 for 50 ml):
The star of the show, the True Cream Aqua Bomb is a gel-cream moisturizer formulated with Belif's proprietary combination of herbal extracts called the Napiers Aqua formula. With chickweedlady's mantlehorsetail, and nettle, this combination moisturizes and soothes the skin, working together with a handful of other anti-inflammatory and antioxidant extracts, from plants such as Scottish heatheroatcalendula, and raspberry. The formulation is lightweight and non-greasy but it's also silicone-heavy. So depending on your stand on silicone-containing skincare, this may not be your cup of tea. I've reviewed this product in full in the past, along with its Moisturizing Bomb counterpart. Check out the post here if you are interested.

Belif | Aqua Bomb Hydrating Toner (Full Size available at C$37 for 200 ml):
Formulated with soothing honeysuckle extract, moisturizing baobab extract, and moisture-attracting sodium hyaluronate, the Aqua Bomb Hydrating Toner is a lightweight and refreshing toner designed to prepare the skin for other skincare products while adding a boost of hydration. Unfortunately, the formulation contains denatured alcohol (third ingredient), which I have been steering clear of due to its drying effect. Therefore, if drying alcohol is not a deal-breaker for you, this is potentially a great toner as it contains a ton of great botanical extracts.

Ingredients: Water, Glycerin, Alcohol Denat., Dipropylene Glycol, 1,2-Hexanediol, Betaine, Panthenol, PEG/PPG/Polybutylene Glycol-8/5/3 Glycerin, Avena Sativa (Oat) Kernel Extract, Stellaria Media (Chickweed) Extract, Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract, Nepeta Cataria Extract, Rubus Idaeus (Raspberry) Leaf Extract, Baptisia Tinctoria Root Extract, Alchemilla Vulgaris Leaf Extract, Equisetum Arvense Leaf Extract, Urtica Dioica (Nettle) Leaf Extract, Adansonia Digitata (Baobab) Seed Extract, Lonicera Caprifolium (Honeysuckle) Flower Extract, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Vine Sap, Sodium Hyaluronate, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Hydroxypropyl Cyclodextrin, PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Bis-PEG-18 Methyl Ether Dimethyl Silane, Trisodium EDTA, Beta-Glucan, Glyceryl Acrylate/Acrylic Acid Copolymer, Glycereth-26, Phenyl Trimethicone, Tromethamine, PEG/PPG-17/6 Copolymer, Polyglutamic Acid, Methylpropanediol, Malachite Extract, Butylene Glycol, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Peel Oil, Citrus Aurantifolia (Lime) Oil, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Oil, Pelargonium Graveolens Flower Oil, Citral, Citronellol, Limonene, Geraniol, Linalool.

Belif | Moisturizing Eye Bomb (Full Size available in C$60 for 25 ml):
A lightweight eye cream, the Moisturizing Eye Bomb contains hydrating comfrey leaf extract and elasticity-boosting pennywort herb. The formulation is non-greasy and easy to blend, a little goes a long way and it feels instantly soothing. It's probably not rich enough for those with aging skin looking for something super nourishing but for most skin types, the Moisturizing Eye Bomb makes for an excellent eye cream!

Ingredients: Water, Dipropylene Glycol, Butylene Glycol, Glycerin, Squalane, Cyclopentasiloxane, Caprylyl Trimethicone, Dimethicone, HDI/TriMethylol Hexyllactone Crosspolymer, Sucrose Polystearate, 1,2-Hexanediol, PCA Dimethicone, Panthenol, Triethylhexanoin, Cellulose, Ceramide NP, Centella Asiatica Leaf Extract, Avena Sativa (Oat) Kernel Extract, Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract, Nepeta Cataria Extract, Rubus Idaeus (Raspberry) Leaf Extract, Baptisia Tinctoria Root Extract, Stellaria Media (Chickweed) Extract, Alchemilla Vulgaris Leaf Extract, Viola Tricolor Extract, Rosa Damascena Flower Extract, Spiraea Ulmaria Flower Extract, Althaea Officinalis Root Extract, Achillea Millefolium Flower Extract, Symphytum Officinale Leaf Extract, Trifolium Pratense (Clover) Flower Extract, Menyanthes Trifoliata Leaf Extract, Salix Alba (Willow) Bark Extract, Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Silica, Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, Glyceryl Stearate, PEG-100 Stearate, Hydrogenated Lecithin, PEG-10 Rapeseed Sterol, Glycereth-20, C14-22 Alcohols, C12-20 Alkyl Gucoside, Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymwer, Polysorbate 60, Hydroxyproline, Carbomer, Tromethamine, Trisodium EDTA, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Peel Oil, Rosamarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Oil, Pelargonium Graveolens Flower Oil, Citral, Citrannellol, Limonene, Geraniol, Linalool.

Also infused with Napier's Aqua Formula, this is a lovely gel cleanser that gently cleanses and hydrates the skin. The formulation creates a nice lather, enough for a deep clean without stripping away the skin's natural moisture.
