My Doctor's Diagnosis: Analysis and Target

Visit 24-Hour Moisturizing Milk from Payot is primarily intended for dry to very dry skin in need of long-lasting hydration and immediate comfort. Its formula aims to restore the skin barrier, soothe feelings of tightness, and prevent dehydration. My expert opinion: the composition is designed to provide intense hydration while respecting skin sensitivity thanks to soothing and lipid-replenishing active ingredients.

Formula Analysis: Key Assets

Three major active ingredients stand out in this milk:

• Glycerine : A powerful humectant, it attracts and retains water in the stratum corneum, ensuring continuous hydration and limiting insensible water loss.
• Shea butter Rich in essential fatty acids, it nourishes, protects, and repairs the skin barrier, while leaving the skin supple and soft.
• Hyaluronic acid (in the form of sodium hyaluronate) : Capable of retaining up to 1,000 times its weight in water, it plumps the skin and visibly improves its elasticity.

The presence of niacinamide (vitamin B3) and panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) enhances the soothing and repairing action, giving this lotion excellent tolerance and overall effectiveness on dry skin.

Tips and Application Ritual

I apply this lotion in the morning and/or evening to clean, dry skin, paying particular attention to the driest areas. It is compatible with most moisturizing and soothing active ingredients (hyaluronic acid, ceramides, panthenol). However, I avoid using it in combination with highly exfoliating or retinoid-based products to limit the risk of irritation.

My Final Verdict & Safety Opinion

This lotion stands out for its creamy, non-greasy texture and delicate fragrance. Its strengths lie in its long-lasting moisturizing power, its richness in repairing active ingredients, and its good tolerance. One slight drawback: the presence of fragrance and potential allergens, which should be monitored in very reactive skin. In conclusion, it is a benchmark skincare product for restoring comfort and suppleness to dry skin.
