Institut Esthederm is a French skincare brand that creates ultra-luxe products. The company is built on a philosophy of developing treatments based on skin’s energy and biology, taking into account cycles of life and seasons.
Skin is an active organ that needs to be balanced. Institute Esthederm looks at the interaction between skin and its environment, and believes that ultimately, we should all treat our skin with respect.
The Lift & Repair Crème Absolute Smoothing Cream is an all-in-one treatment for your face. It works to firm and lift, while adding luminosity and diminish wrinkles. Topically, it lifts on the surface – but it also penetrates deep into skin for long-term biological action.
The formula slows the appearance of premature aging, and optimizes cells’ energy for maximum reproduction. It promises to immediately smooth and firm skin, leaving it “radiantly youthful.”
It smells mildly of roses (nothing overpowering), and the thick formula feels wonderfully cool and calming on application. My dry skin has soaked it up and has a subtle, dewy glow.
If you can shell out the €98 per bottle, it’s worth the hefty fee. After all, we only have one skin – isn’t it worth investing in?
