Changing seasons, miserable weather, low vitality, heating, poor diet, stress, irritations, hormonal changes, or simply a lack of lipids... There are so many good reasons to treat your skin to our new Le Masque Riche Réconfortant, rich comforting mask! 

Groundbreaking. Comforting. Mouthwatering.

Give your skin some good fats, with Cocoa and Mango butters

Just like your brain, your skin needs good fats in order to function properly! So we chose two "good fat" ingredients with exceptional qualities to comfort the skin: Cocoa and Mango butters, which work to restore skin’s lipid balance and soothe irritations.

Cocoa butter is bursting with benefits! It contains omega-9 (monounsaturated fatty acids) that strengthen the skin’s hydrolipidic film, so it feels supple and hydrated. But that’s not all... It also contains polyphenols and free radical-fighting antioxidants. Then there’s stearic acid and palmitic acid – saturated fatty acids with film-forming and nourishing properties that help to protect skin against environmental aggressors.

There’s also theobromine, the "feel-good molecule" found in chocolate that has a psychostimulant and mood-lifting effect (so that’s why we love chocolate so much!), and even caffeine, known for its invigorating properties. 

Mango is best known for its delicious, juicy flesh, but inside this fruit is a flat kernel that contains a valuable seed. When mango seeds are cold pressed, they yield a butter that’s rich in active compounds.

Packed with antioxidants, phytosterols, and polyphenols – which help to slow down skin aging – and rich in Vitamins A, B1, B6, C and E, as well as copper, Mango Butter also contains squalene and fatty acids, both of which are essential for collagen production and skin hydration. Mango Butter is the perfect ingredient for soothing skin damaged by the sun or cold, and restoring the hydrolipidic film.

Calm your skin and mind, with Kombucha

Kombucha is rich in amino acids, vitamins and nutrients, which are more easily absorbed due to the fermentation process used to make it. Considered an adaptogen, this ingredient has antioxidant and hydrating benefits, promotes cell renewal, and is excellent for skin that lacks energy. It helps to improve radiance by preventing and slowing down glycation, which can play a major role in skin aging.

It also stimulates the synthesis of lipids by adipocytes, thus helping to restore volume to hollow areas. Basically, it provides a sort of natural, self-generated, lipofilling effect!

Make your skin feel serene, with Ginkgo Biloba

Called a "living fossil", the Ginkgo Biloba tree is incredibly tough and resilient, and has lived on Earth for over 250 million years. For centuries, it’s been used in Asia for its therapeutic, circulation-boosting and oxygenating properties.

In cosmetics, it’s mostly used for its high concentration of flavonoids, and because it tones and promotes drainage, thus helping to firm tissues. It contains sesquiterpenes, with soothing benefits, making it ideal for sensitive and irritated skin, while its ability to improve microcirculation helps to relieve redness, for a more even, radiant complexion. 

A synergy of active ingredients

Plants work together naturally! They complement and strengthen each other, for optimum results. That’s why this formula also contains the following ingredients: Hemp Seed oil, to soothe and nourish; Avocado butter, to soothe and regenerate; plant-based Squalane, to prevent dehydration; Cotton cells, with soothing properties; and Magnesium PCA, to protect skin from stress.
