My Doctor's Diagnosis: Analysis and Target

Visit Cica Repair Milk from Mixa is primarily intended for dry, damaged, or fragile skin that is prone to dehydration, tightness, or discomfort. Its formula aims to restore the skin barrier and promote epidermal repair. My analysis highlights a dermo-cosmetic approach suitable for sensitive skin, with particular attention paid to tolerance and moisturizing effectiveness.

Formula Analysis: Key Assets

Three key active ingredients structure the effectiveness of this lotion:

• Urea : This keratolytic and moisturizing agent promotes the elimination of dead cells while increasing the skin's ability to retain water. It is known to improve skin suppleness and accelerate the repair of damaged skin.
• Shea butter Rich in essential fatty acids, it intensely nourishes, restores the lipid barrier, and protects the skin from external aggressions.
• Panthenol (Pro-vitamin B5) It soothes, repairs, and stimulates cell regeneration, making it an ideal choice for irritated or sensitive skin.

The presence of glycerin and sodium lactate enhances hydration, while dimethicone provides a protective and softening effect.

Tips and Application Ritual

I apply this lotion daily, morning and/or evening, to clean, dry skin, focusing on the driest or most damaged areas. It is compatible with most moisturizing active ingredients (hyaluronic acid, ceramides), but I recommend avoiding immediate combination with powerful exfoliants (AHA/BHA) to limit the risk of irritation on fragile skin.

My Final Verdict & Safety Opinion

This Mixa milk stands out for its excellent effectiveness/tolerance ratio for dry and sensitive skin. Its rich but non-greasy texture makes it easy to apply daily. The only downside is the presence of fragrance, which may be a concern for ultra-reactive skin. In conclusion, it is a reliable repairing treatment, ideal for restoring comfort and suppleness to the skin.
