Debuting in July this year, this high density jelly is formulated to combat water loss from the skin and deliver overnight hydration while you sleep.
According to Biotherm's research, skin loses up to four times more water in the night than in the day.
It's star ingredient, the P. Antarctica extract, purportedly boosts the production of new skin cells by up to 25 per cent after just 48 hours.
The packaging for this product is similar to its Source Therapie range with a squeeze dispenser that dispenses just the right amount though I usually like 2 spritz that provides just enough hydration for my face.
Blue in colour, it has a gel-like texture that appears to be light, as compared to most night creams in the market. However, it gives a sheen to the skin and very much so, if applied too much. I did not quite like a shiny face just before I turned in to bed.
On optimal skin condition, it hardly does much. However I experienced its effectiveness when I use it on dehydrated skin. My skin was refreshed and moisturized the following morning, without the flakiness.
The packaging is poorly designed though, the contents can get difficult to be dispense through the bottle nearer to the end of usage. The thin tube that is attached to the cap when you unscrew it, does not reach to the end of the bottle and gets dislocate easily if I keep using it to scoop the contents out.
A 50ml bottle retails for $75.
In terms of ingredients, you will be dismayed to note that it contains alcohol and fragrance in the product.
According to Paula,
Alcohol in skin-care products causes dryness and free-radical damage, and impairs the skin’s ability to heal. The irritation it causes damages healthy collagen production and can stimulate oil production at the base of the pore, making oily skin worse.
Daily use of products that contain a high amount of fragrance, whether the fragrant ingredients are synthetic or natural, causes chronic irritation that can damage healthy collagen production, lead to or worsen dryness, and impair your skin’s ability to heal
