My Doctor's Diagnosis: Analysis and Target

The HYDRA-PROTECT + Organic Certified Moisturizing Face Fluid from Laboratoires de Biarritz is primarily intended for dehydrated, sensitive skin or skin exposed to environmental aggressions. Its formula aims to restore and maintain skin hydration while strengthening the skin's protective barrier. My expert opinion is that this product is part of a modern dermo-cosmetic approach, favoring natural active ingredients and a light texture, perfectly suited to the daily needs of urban or fragile skin.

Formula Analysis: Key Assets

Three active ingredients stand out in this formula:

• Hyaluronic acid (Sodium Hyaluronate) : known for its ability to retain up to 1,000 times its weight in water, it intensely hydrates and plumps the skin, reducing fine lines caused by dehydration.
• Ectoine : this amino acid protects skin cells from oxidative stress and external aggressions, while strengthening the skin barrier.
• Jojoba Oil : it mimics natural sebum, nourishes without weighing down the skin, and regulates the hydrolipidic balance, ideal for all skin types, even combination skin.

The presence of aloe vera and vitamin E complements the soothing and antioxidant action, giving this fluid excellent tolerance and overall effectiveness in terms of hydration and skin protection.

Tips and Application Ritual

I apply this fluid morning and/or evening to clean skin, focusing on the face and neck. It fits perfectly into a minimalist routine or as a complement to a hydrating serum. It is compatible with most active ingredients, but I recommend avoiding immediate combination with highly exfoliating skincare products (AHA/BHA acids) to preserve the softness of the skin barrier.

My Final Verdict & Safety Opinion

This fluid stands out for its light, non-greasy texture and excellent tolerance, even on sensitive skin. Its subtle fragrance and organic certification are added bonuses. The only possible downside is that it is better suited to normal to combination skin than very dry skin in winter. In conclusion, it is a safe, effective, and skin-friendly moisturizer.
