Crème Visage N°2

No, it was designed as a light, comfortable and quickly absorbed cream.

Its “quick-break” texture melts into the skin without leaving a heavy feel. It provides comfort without coating the skin in a thick film. Plant oils, such as sweet almond oil and grapeseed oil, nourish the skin while keeping it soft to the touch.

Apply in a simple order: cleanser, serum, Crème Visage N°2.

• In the morning, add your sun protection as the final step.
• In the evening, the cream can be used on its own or after your serum.

Yes, this cream can be used perfectly well with a serum, such as Élixir Visage N°1.

Apply the serum first, then Crème Visage N°2. The serum provides targeted action. The cream completes the routine by providing comfort, hydration and suppleness.

It can replace a serum if you want a very simple routine.

Technically, however, a cream and a serum do not play exactly the same role. A serum is often more targeted. A cream provides more comfort, suppleness and sensory protection.

If your skin simply needs hydration and softness, Crème Visage N°2 may be enough.

Yes, absolutely! The light texture of Crème Visage N°2 makes it a good base before make-up.

Apply a small amount, let it absorb for a few moments, then continue with your sun protection and make-up.

Well-hydrated skin also helps achieve a smoother, fresher and more radiant finish.

Yes, absolutely. Crème Visage N°2 is designed precisely to bring hydration, softness and comfort to skin that feels tight. Please note, however, that it remains a light cream and is not specifically formulated for very dry or mature skin. Masque Visage N°3 is specifically formulated for that.

Aloe vera, glycerin and hyaluronic acid help maintain hydration, while plant oils and seaweed extracts leave the skin more supple, softer and more comfortable.

Crème Visage N°2 is based on precise cosmetic mechanisms: hydration, skin comfort, water retention, and improved skin suppleness. Its formula combines humectants, polysaccharides, and vegetable oils to act complementarily on the skin's surface.

Hyaluronic acid and glycerin help retain water. They contribute to maintaining hydration in the superficial layers of the epidermis and help achieve visibly suppler, smoother, and plumper skin.

Polysaccharides, particularly those derived from Chondrus crispusand Fucogel®, contribute to skin comfort. They form a soft film on the skin's surface that helps maintain hydration and improves the feeling of softness and comfort.

Vegetable oils complement this action by providing lipids to the skin. They help preserve its suppleness, limit feelings of dryness, and leave the skin soft and comfortable, without weighing it down.
