Why we love it: Hydrates, tones and leaves skin looking luminous. Helps support your skin’s good bacteria, evening out the complexion, while nourishing and protecting your skin. Skin is soft, tonified and soothed, with hydration levels of the skin’s upper layers increased by 55% after 4 hours. It also slightly smells like a gingerbread. This is due to the high concentration of natural active ingredients, especially in prebiotics.
This cream nourishes the skin with a high-performance hydrating formula that soothes, protects and brightens. A patented Triple Biotic Complex of prebiotics, probiotics and postbiotics helps to support your skin’s microbiome in the most gentle and effective way possible, combined with the antioxidant actions of organic myrtle extract.

Key Ingredients
Probiotics: deactivated bacteria from the lactobacillus family (a major part of the lactic acid bacteria group), these probiotics are extremely gentle on the skin and help to support the microbiome and the skin’s protective barrier.
Prebiotics: a mix of ultra-gentle fibres and sugars that feed your skin’s good bacteria and help support the skin’s barrier, with an antibacterial action against bad bacteria.
Lactic Acid: the gentlest of AHAs, lactic acid helps the skin to stay at its optimal pH level and has hydrating and softening properties. Gallinée uses a slow-release form to suit even sensitive skin.
Physiological pH: all Gallinée products are made to match the optimal pH of the skin and the microbiome.
Yacon Extract: a root hailing from the same family as Jerusalem artichokes, yacon contains one of the largest amounts of prebiotics found in natural plants. In Central America it is often used as a natural sugar. Gallinée’s yacon is cold-pressed to retain its qualities.
Organic Myrthe Extract: sourced from the French Mediterranean region, myrtle is a plant containing a large amount of phenolic compounds, well-known for their antioxidant actions, to protect skin from oxidative stress.
Your Ritual
Apply over your face and neck morning and evening, after cleansing. It creates an ideal make-up base. As the Gallinée Hydrating Face Cream is highly concentrated in active ingredients, a little goes a long way. For the best care, follow with sun protection.
