Give your skin a second birth with Biologique Recherche Creme Masque Vernix!

Biologique Recherche Creme Masque Vernix - 50ml -$182 - a cream mask inspired by the first epidermal protection at birth that helps recondition the epidermis. Before we are born, nature protects our skin with a very fine protective layer The outer layer of a baby’s skin is much thinner than an adult’s and therefore more sensitive to water loss and loss of heat, in addition to dryness. Their skin is also not able to pH balance, so it is less protected against bacteria. This mask virtually reproduces the original composition of the vernix, thanks to a selection of active ingredients rich in lipids, proteins and antioxidant peptides. A revitalizing, repairing and protective treatment, it is ideal for deficient and/or stressed skin.

When I heard the whole baby thing I did question them closely to make sure that there were no actual babies in the jar - because that would just be gross - and you'll be happy to hear that it is indeed 100% baby free!

The mask optimizes skin hydration, smooths out dehydration wrinkles, restores and strengthens the protective barrier function and boosts the repair capacity of the epidermis and leave skin soft and glowing. You can use it in a couple of different ways depending on what your skin needs - you can apply a thin layer morning and/or night and massage it in until absorbed or apply a thick layer and leave on for 10 minutes - this is especially great after a day in extreme weather like sun, cold or wind to help soothe and repair. And don't worry if it tingles a bit, I figure that just means it's working!
