It provides just the right amount of hydration, perfect for combination dehydrated skin. It seems to help with skin barrier recovery and regeneration! While using this product, I noticed my skin, which was tired from dermatitis, gradually regaining its condition. However, there's a downside... (see below)
ConsIt causes itching and rashes. My skin seems to improve at first, but then it gets worse again. I really love La Roche-Posay, but the Cicaplast line doesn't suit me. I think it might be due to the panthenol ingredient... These days, so many cosmetics contain panthenol, it's hard to avoid. (Cerave products don't suit me either.) For reference, I also had issues with the famous La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Baume B5+. The B5 balm, being a cream formula, was less irritating than the toner, but I still experienced slight itching. It didn't cause breakouts, but I always felt a subtle discomfort. After experiencing allergic symptoms with the B5 toner, I'm certain this line doesn't work for me. The La Roche-Posay Toleriane line suits me well though.
TipFor those with sensitive skin suffering from dermatitis or allergies! Please avoid liquid formulas (toners, essences, ampoules, etc.) or oils when your skin is irritated. Liquid and oil-based products are absorbed quickly, making irritation more likely. Have you ever noticed that your skin feels fine after cleansing with water, but stings when you apply toner? Even if a toner has gentle ingredients, it doesn't mean it won't cause irritation! When your skin is irritated, stick to a gentle cleanser and follow up with an emulsion or cream that suits you. Only introduce toners or essences once your skin has recovered to a level that can be managed with home care.

Even with my dry skin, this cream plus one ampoule is enough to create a perfect base for makeup. The hydrating power is impressive. It's gentle and non-irritating, which I love. Plus, it strengthens the skin barrier, making it an ideal choice for a basic skincare routine.
ConsI noticed some pilling, but if you take the time to massage it in well, it absorbs fine.

After cleansing in the morning and evening, I apply it with a cotton pad, and it feels incredibly hydrating.
ConsI wish the product came in a larger size! The price is also a bit high unless it's on sale.

The madecassoside helps soothe my skin, while the panthenol strengthens my skin barrier. When I gently pat it in with my fingers, my skin feels nice and firm.
ConsIt's soothing and hydrating for sensitive skin. I honestly can't find any downsides to it.

It's become a staple in my skincare routine that I keep using consistently.
ConsThere's nothing particularly bad... If I had to pick something, maybe it's that a bit of the toner drips down the bottom of the container, probably due to the pump design, which can make my desk a bit messy.

It's been effective in treating my small blemishes. I can really feel it strengthening my skin barrier. The product absorbs well and glides on smoothly with a slightly slippery texture.
ConsThe price tag is a bit steep, which makes it somewhat of a splurge. While it helped with my blemishes, they didn't completely disappear.

Cons- As expected, it stings if it gets in your eyes, but occasionally it can be quite irritating around the cheeks immediately after application. The sensation subsides over time, but those with super sensitive skin might find it too harsh. - For those with dry skin, one layer might not be enough. You may need to layer it multiple times or ensure you have a robust skincare routine to follow.
TipPro tip: Store it in the fridge and use it as a cooling mask for an extra refreshing treat!

But wow, the toner is great too! As described, when you pat it on after cleansing, you can feel your skin barrier becoming stronger. ✅Absorption I'm a fan of toners like The Lab by Blanc Doux, and I prefer ones that provide hydration without feeling sticky. This product does just that - it hydrates well as the first step in skincare without any stickiness, while also giving a protective feeling to the skin. ✅Recommended Skin Types I think it would suit all skin types, but I especially recommend it for those with sensitive skin, dry skin, or anyone looking to strengthen their skin barrier! ✅How to Use While it's good for exfoliating toner methods, I mostly use it for patting. Sometimes I apply The Lab by Blanc Doux toner first as it's lighter, then follow with this one. Other times, I use this as my first toner. This toner provides great hydration and makes your skin feel fortified on the outside. In the morning, you can skip serum after this toner, apply cream, and go straight to makeup! (I do this when I want a more matte finish, as some serums can be a bit rich) If your skin feels sensitive or you want to boost hydration, try using it as a mask pack! I recommend applying a hydrating serum first, then doing the mask pack.
ConsI couldn't find any downsides, but when dispensing the toner, it tends to drip down the sides of the bottle, which can be a bit inconvenient. Also, while I personally like the scent (it smells like it's strengthening my skin, haha), it might be a love-it-or-hate-it situation for some people!
