My Doctor's Diagnosis: Analysis and Target

U brand's Green Tea Mattifying BioFluid is primarily intended for combination to oily skin types prone to shine, enlarged pores, and occasional breakouts. My analysis of the formula reveals a clear desire to mattify the skin while preserving its moisture. This product is positioned as a daily solution to control excess sebum, while providing soothing and protective active ingredients, which is essential for this type of skin that is often reactive or sensitized by overly aggressive skincare products.

Formula Analysis: Key Assets

Three active ingredients stand out in this formula. First, green tea leaf water (Camellia Sinensis Leaf Water) provides antioxidant and sebum-regulating properties, limiting sebum oxidation and skin inflammation. Next, Zinc PCA, known for its purifying and regulating action, helps limit bacterial proliferation and reduce sebum production. Finally, rice powder (Oryza Sativa Powder) acts as a natural mattifying agent, absorbing excess shine without drying out the skin. The combination of these active ingredients gives the product targeted effectiveness in mattifying and preventing blemishes, while respecting the skin's balance.

Tips and Application Ritual

I recommend applying this fluid in the morning to clean, dry skin, paying particular attention to the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin). It can be used alone or under sunscreen. It is compatible with moisturizing active ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, but I do not recommend combining it with highly exfoliating products or retinoids on the same morning to avoid irritation. In the evening, opt for a more restorative routine.

My Final Verdict & Safety Opinion

This fluid stands out for its light, non-greasy texture that is quickly absorbed, making it ideal for combination to oily skin. Its formula, rich in mattifying and soothing agents, is a real asset. One downside: it contains fragrance and potential allergens, which should be monitored in very sensitive skin. In conclusion, it is an effective and well-designed product for controlling shine on a daily basis.
