General, ingredient-based — not your personalized match.
See how this fits your skin
Take the skin test and I'll show you how suitable this product is for you.
Take the skin testThe soothing cream that restores the skin's microbiome. Drawing on the latest discoveries in skin biology, Crème N°2 Nuage strengthens and rebalances the cutaneous flora with a duo of prebiotics and probiotics. Boswellia and Wild Jasmine extracts complete the formula, hydrating and calming the skin while reducing irritation and redness.
Soothing Cloud Cream is a cushioning cream from Payot. The formula is built mainly around hydration. The ingredient list runs to 40 ingredients, each broken down in full below.
By its ingredient list the formula reads as moderately cushioned — emollient enough to feel like a cream, without the heaviest occlusives near the top. Hydration is handled by Glycerin, Butylene Glycol and Propanediol, 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, Propanediol and Oleyl Erucate.
Soothing: Moderate. Ingredients aimed at visible redness and reactivity, and here that comes from Butyrospermum Parkii Butter, Bifida Ferment Lysate, Alpha-glucan Oligosaccharide and Tocopherol.
Barrier support: Moderate. Lipids and repair signals that support skin barrier integrity, and here that comes from Butyrospermum Parkii Butter and Lecithin.
On richness alone it suits Balanced skin best, and is the least natural fit for Dry, Combination (dry), Combination (oily) and Oily 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 antioxidant protection, brightening and tone, cell renewal 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, sulfate-free and dye-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 after serums. Seal in your serums with it; in the morning, sunscreen still goes on top.
This summary is generated from the product's ingredient list. It is not a review, it is not the brand's own marketing claims, and it does not replace advice from a dermatologist.
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.
