Mimics the beneficial effects of retinoids without irritating or photo-sensitising the skin. Its retinoid-like action reduces sebum secretion, smoothes out wrinkles due to cutaneous ageing and leaves the skin smooth, uniform and softened.

What it is

A wax obtained from Criste Marine, a vivacious coastal plant introduced into the French Pharmacopoeia in 1837 and known since antiquity. Sailors used to take it with them on long voyages due to its high Vitamin C and mineral content.

Benefits

• After 28 days application the surface of the skin is smoother and wrinkles attenuated. Sebum levels are also reduced for a mattifying effect.
• Skin roughness before treatment (left) and after 28 days treatment (right).
