La lotion convient-elle aux peaux sensibles ?

Oui. Sa formule courte, composée à 100 % d’ingrédients d’origine naturelle, a été pensée pour respecter les épidermes les plus délicats. La double eau florale de rose et de bleuet, obtenue par distillation douce, est traditionnellement reconnue pour ses propriétés apaisantes. Son pH légèrement acide (3.9–4.3), proche de celui d’une peau saine, contribue à préserver l’équilibre du film hydrolipidique et du microbiote cutané. Elle peut ainsi être utilisée quotidiennement, y compris sur les peaux sensibles ou réactives.

Quelle est la différence entre une eau florale classique et votre lotion ?

Une eau florale traditionnelle est issue uniquement de la distillation d’une plante. Notre lotion va plus loin : elle associe deux eaux florales distillées à des actifs dermocosmétiques contemporains — aloe vera et acide hyaluronique — afin d’apporter non seulement fraîcheur et apaisement, mais aussi une véritable action hydratante mesurable et durable. C’est toute la philosophie du Nouvel Art Formulatoire : respecter l’intelligence botanique du passé, tout en l’enrichissant par la précision scientifique d’aujourd’hui.

Peut-elle remplacer un sérum hydratant ?

Elle constitue une première étape d’hydratation, mais ne remplace pas un sérum concentré. Sa texture aqueuse prépare la peau, optimise la pénétration des soins appliqués ensuite et améliore leur efficacité. Appliquée avant un sérum ou une crème, elle permet une stratification intelligente de l’hydratation, particulièrement bénéfique pour les peaux sèches ou déshydratées.

Pourquoi son pH est-il légèrement acide ?

La surface de la peau présente naturellement un pH acide, essentiel à son équilibre biologique. Maintenir cette légère acidité aide à : - préserver le microbiote cutané, - soutenir l’intégrité du film hydrolipidique, - limiter les sensations d’inconfort après le nettoyage. Ce choix formulatoire participe à la haute tolérance du soin.

Peut-elle être utilisée le matin et le soir ?

Oui. Le matin, elle réveille la peau, apporte fraîcheur et éclat, et prépare idéalement à l’application d’un sérum ou d’une crème. Le soir, elle aide à restaurer l’équilibre cutané après le nettoyage et à compenser les pertes en eau, notamment sur les peaux sensibles ou sujettes aux sécheresses.

La formule est-elle végane ?

Oui. La lotion est végane, composée à 100 % d’ingrédients d’origine naturelle, et ne contient ni alcool ajouté ni agents agressifs. Chaque ingrédient a été sélectionné pour sa compatibilité avec la peau et pour sa cohérence avec notre exigence de naturalité, d’efficacité et de tolérance.

Lotion Florale Hydramisante COTTAN — formule et ingrédients (INCI)

Natural, vegan, made in France, no synthetic preservatives

This hydrating lotion is part of the great tradition of floral waters, obtained by slow steam distillation, an ancestral process that guarantees the integrity of the aromatic and biologically active compounds of the flowers.

The combination of rose water and cornflower water works synergistically to soothe and tone the skin, while aloe vera boosts immediate hydration with its film-forming polysaccharides. Hyaluronic acid, selected for its ideal molecular weight, optimizes water retention on the skin's surface and helps maintain a balanced skin barrier.

The slightly acidic pH, similar to that of healthy skin, helps maintain the skin's microbiota and promotes the restoration of the hydrolipidic film after cleansing.

The formula, deliberately short and composed of 100% natural ingredients, illustrates our New Formulation Art: preserving the botanical intelligence of the past while incorporating it into contemporary dermocosmetic requirements.
