My Doctor's Diagnosis: Analysis and Target

Pore-reducing serum Nuxe Aroma Perfection is primarily intended for combination to oily skin prone to enlarged pores, excess sebum, and blemishes. My analysis of the formula reveals Nuxe's desire to target shine, texture irregularities, and small blemishes, while preserving skin hydration. This product is part of a daily skincare routine to refine skin texture and visibly improve the appearance of pores.

Formula Analysis: Key Assets

Three active ingredients stand out in this formula:

• Salicylic acid : This keratolytic active ingredient penetrates the pores to dissolve impurities and limit the formation of blackheads. It promotes cell renewal and refines skin texture.
• Zinc PCA Known for its sebum-regulating and antibacterial properties, it helps control sebum production and limit the appearance of blemishes.
• Phytic acid This mild plant-based acid has a gentle exfoliating action, helping to smooth the skin's surface without damaging the epidermis.

The presence of plant extracts (mangosteen, iris, wild pansy) enriches the formula with antioxidants and soothing agents, enhancing the product's overall tolerance and effectiveness.

Tips and Application Ritual

I apply this serum in the morning and/or evening to clean skin, before moisturizer. It is compatible with non-comedogenic moisturizers and sunscreens. I avoid combining it with other powerful exfoliants (high concentrations of AHA/BHA or retinoids) to limit the risk of irritation.

My Final Verdict & Safety Opinion

This Nuxe serum stands out for its balance between purifying effectiveness and respect for the skin barrier. Its light texture is well suited to combination to oily skin. It has a light fragrance, which may not be suitable for very sensitive skin. In conclusion, this is an expert skincare product for refining pores and mattifying the skin, while preserving softness and comfort.
