My Doctor's Diagnosis: Analysis and Target

La Source's Rich Repairing Night Cream is primarily intended for dry, dehydrated, or fragile skin in need of repair and comfort during the night. My analysis of the formula reveals the brand's clear desire to nourish, soothe, and support the skin barrier. This product effectively targets dryness and discomfort, and contributes to nighttime regeneration, a key period for cell repair.

Formula Analysis: Key Assets

Three active ingredients stand out in this formula:

• Shea butter Rich in essential fatty acids, it intensely nourishes, restores the lipid barrier, and protects the skin from external aggressions. Its emollient action promotes suppleness and limits water loss.
• Bisabolol : Derived from chamomile, it has recognized soothing and anti-inflammatory properties. It calms irritation and promotes the repair of sensitive skin.
• Vitamin E (Tocopherol) : A powerful antioxidant, it protects cells from oxidative stress and supports skin regeneration during the night.

The presence of plant oils (jojoba, sunflower, soybean) and moisturizing agents (glycerin) enhances the quality of the formula, providing comfort and softness.

Tips and Application Ritual

I apply this cream in the evening, on clean, dry skin, as the last step in my skincare routine. It works perfectly with moisturizing or soothing serums. I avoid combining it with powerful exfoliating active ingredients (retinoids, strong acids) so as not to overload the skin during the night.

My Final Verdict & Safety Opinion

La Source's Rich Repairing Night Cream stands out for its enveloping texture, ideal for dry or sensitive skin. Its subtle fragrance and rich composition of natural active ingredients make it a safe and effective skincare product. The only possible downside is that its texture may be a little too rich for oily skin. My expert opinion: an excellent choice for restoring and soothing the skin overnight.
