General, ingredient-based — not your personalized match.

Take the skin test and I'll show you how suitable this product is for you.
Take the skin testThe plumping moisturizing infusion for thirsty skin. This skin-quenching primer hydrates, smooths and visibly plumps the skin. Its aquatic fragrance, luminous hue and infused petals offer a true sensory experience. Enriched with watermelon and fig extracts and high molecular weight hyaluronic acid, it reinforces the skin's barrier and limits water loss.
Moisturising Plumping Infusion is a lightweight essence from Payot. The formula is built mainly around hydration. The ingredient list runs to 28 ingredients, each broken down in full below.
By its ingredient list the formula reads as light: water and humectants lead, with emollients kept lower in the order. Hydration is handled by Glycerin, Butylene Glycol and Centaurea Cyanus Flower, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.
Hydration: High. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Centaurea Cyanus Flower and Urea.
On richness alone it suits Balanced, Combination (oily) and Oily skin best, and is the least natural fit for Dry and Combination (dry) skin. Nothing in the list is flagged as a common irritant, which is a reasonable starting point for reactive skin — though a patch test is still the only way to know.
The formula contributes little or nothing on barrier support, antioxidant protection, oil control and firmness signalling. That is not a fault — most products are not meant to do everything — but if one of those is your priority, this is not the product that will address it.
Reading the full list, the formula is essential-oil-free, no drying alcohol, paraben-free, silicone-free, microplastic-free and sulfate-free. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging. It does contain fragrance, worth knowing if your skin reacts to any of them.
It can be used morning and evening. In a routine it goes before moisturiser. Tap along the orbital bone with your ring finger; product migrates upward on its own.

Drawn purely from the ingredient list
Scored on how rich or light the formula reads from its INCI order.
No ingredient in this formula carries a common-irritant flag, making it a reasonable option for reactive skin. A patch test is still recommended, as individual skin reactivity varies.
