Say Bonjour to Embryolisse and Why Beauty Editors Swear By It

The French are well known for their fine produce whether it's your Coco Chanel No.5, classic french cuisine, or their prestigious vineyards, the French are at the top of the league. With nearly all aspects of the fashion and beauty world in the palm of their hand I was not surprised that's Embryolisse was as stated by British Vogue beauty- editor Lauren Murdoch-Smithy "a beauty editors secret".

Embryolisse specialises in dermo-cosmetics, created in 1950 by a dermatologist who specialised in skin pathologies. With that in mind say bonjour to Embryolisse Lait-Creme Concentre, a moisturiser, make-up primer, and moisturising mask (which also doubles up as a cleansing mask). With its noticeable packaging, this brand is hard to miss. It has been noted that during Paris Fashion week Embryolisse could be seen in all the makeup artist kits due to its lightweight texture.

So what makes it so different from other moisturizing brands? Packed with fatty acids and vitamins Embryolisse is formulated for all skin types. Especially those who suffer from sensitive or irritated skin. For those with oily/combination skin, I would advise you use a pea-sized amount when applying as a base to ensure all the product has been absorbed.

Embryolisse Lait-Creme Concentre ingredients consist of shea butter, beeswax, aloe vera, and soy protein, all designed for ultra- hydration and cell restoration.

Shea Butter- is renowned for its moisturising and anti-inflammatory properties, with a low melting point this butter is perfect for dehydrated skin. Rich in fatty acids and vitamins A, D, E, and F it can improve collagen production, skin elasticity, and tone skin imperfections.

Aloe Vera- has a water content of 99.5% it ultra-hydrating properties can help soothe the skin and treat skin issues such as psoriasis and acne. Its high absorption rate makes its ideal for oily skin and seals in moisture creating a perfect natural barrier.

Beeswax - has amazing anti-bacterial properties, that can help fight skin infections and chapped skin during the colder months. It acts as a natural barrier from pollutants without blocking your pores.

Soy protein - is a natural supplement considered to an antioxidant, that helps reduce premature aging caused by free radicals. Its high protein content can also bring back a youthful glow to your skin.

These main active ingredients give Embryolisse Lait-Creme Concentre a silky consistency which is notable in Embryolisse multi-function nourishing moisturiser  Lait-Creme Fluid which can also be used a primer or facial makeup remover.  Its velvety smooth texture leaves my skin glowing. I tend to use it after my at-home IPL sessions its exceptionally good soothing properties quickly stops signs of irritation and leave my legs feeling soft and moisturised.

Embryolisse "all skin type friendly"paraben-free formula has been created to preserve biological balances and encourage collagen and hyaluronic production by fighting free radicals for a more youthful appearance, whilst encouraging plumper, firmer skin. So.... if you're looking for a product to help create the perfect canvas, make Embryolisse your first stop.
