The anti-pollution skin perfector
Chantecaille is the name of a family of French origin from New York whose mother and daughter are interested in natural and ancestral ingredients, traditional Chinese medicine, aromatherapy and biotechnology. The nugget: an impalpable tinted texture stuffed with antioxidants and anti-irritants, with a moisturizing active ingredient. Between care and light make-up bare skin, imperfections are hidden, and fine lines, smoothed. Just Skin SPF15 from Chantecaille, € 65 at Printemps Haussmann.
The cleansing and exfoliating face brush
The engineer who invented the electric toothbrush declined its technology for the skin. Vibration and sonic oscillations for 26,000 hairs that not only cleanse but exfoliate, release pores , shrink and facilitate the penetration of care that follows. Six times more effective than a classic cleaning (tests in support), this brush leaves an incredible sensation of cleanliness. As a bonus, a small massage that stimulates and firms. The latest compact version is nomadic. Mia Fit by Clarisonic, 200 €.
Anti-stretch mark anti-wrinkle
StriVectin owes its success to a diversion of formula. Praised for its preventive and restorative action of stretch marks, the Americans wanted to apply it on the face as anti-wrinkles. The idea is not absurd, since stretch marks are rips of the skin that can be closer to wrinkles and that the leading asset to repair is collagen. With its patented molecule, the formula restores tissue and elasticity. Advanced Advanced Concentration for Winckles & Stress Marks by StriVectin, 85 €.

Miraculous anti-aging cream
At the heart of this cream, the Miracle Booth, an alga harvested off San Diego, whose fermentation is accompanied by music. Indeed, Dr. Max Huber, father of this formula, knew that the sound of the surf emitted waves favoring fermentation, noise that he managed to reproduce with a soundtrack. Esoteric, perhaps, but that's what makes all the difference of this anti-aging moisturizer. Cream Intense Regeneration Cream Sea, 148 € 30 ml.
The first repair serum
Already, in 1982, Estée Lauder repaired the skin at night to better face the day. Hence the creation of this serum based hyaluronic acid - a first - that it presents in a brown bottle with a pipette, as in pharmacy. If this care wants to prevent aging, it also corrects the signs of age already installed. An exceptional success. Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Repair Complex II, 81 €.
The beautiful skin ritual in three stages
