My Doctor's Diagnosis: Analysis and Target

Institut Esthederm's Anti-Sagging Moisturizing Milk is primarily intended for people concerned about loss of skin firmness and dryness. This product targets sagging skin, often seen with age, weight fluctuations, or after pregnancy. My analysis of the formula reveals a desire to combine intense hydration with firming action, positioning this product as an ally for mature skin or for preventing sagging.

Formula Analysis: Key Assets

Three active ingredients stand out in this formula. First, the glycerin, a recognized humectant, attracts and retains water in the epidermis, ensuring long-lasting hydration. Next, the methylsilanol mannuronate, derived from seaweed, is known to stimulate collagen and elastin synthesis, contributing to skin tone. Finally, extract of kelp (brown algae) provides minerals and polysaccharides that strengthen the skin barrier and contribute to the firming effect. The presence of peptides such as carnosine complements the anti-sagging action by protecting the skin's support fibers.

Tips and Application Ritual

I recommend applying this lotion morning and/or evening all over the body, paying particular attention to areas prone to sagging (arms, stomach, thighs). It is compatible with most moisturizing and firming active ingredients, but I do not recommend using it immediately after powerful exfoliating treatments to avoid irritation. Its texture allows for prolonged massage, promoting microcirculation and absorption of the active ingredients.

My Final Verdict & Safety Opinion

This lotion stands out thanks to its combination of moisturizing and firming active ingredients, ideal for skin lacking tone. Its fluid texture is quickly absorbed without leaving a greasy residue. One slight drawback: the presence of fragrance and denatured alcohol, which may not be suitable for very sensitive skin. In conclusion, this is an effective and pleasant skincare product to incorporate into your daily routine to optimize skin firmness.
