Hydrate, protect, plump, balance? Whether you’re opting for a serum-based formula, cream, cream, gel or ampoules, your ultimate goal is a glowing and radiant skin. To help you find the right formula, we've tested 6 new products, and you’ll have every single detail on the experience and results. Choose your favorite.
"What is the best cream?" A question frequently asked. In this age of omnipresent care, cosmetics must understand you, reassure you, give you confidence, and not disappoint you, and that’s a real challenge. Especially that there are no bad products, only bad ingredients.
It all depends on your skin, age, lifestyle, desires and of course the season through which you’re purchasing the product, without forgetting the budget. Also, no product will be effective if you do not apply it as instructed. While safe bets are still popular, labs, now more than ever, are looking for new, more efficient combinations and more eco-responsible means of extraction. Overall, even if nothing is perfect yet, the ingredients, formulas and packaging are increasingly clean. 6 extremely clean products will prove us right.
