Face Care

 

Immortelle, a flower that never fades, is picked by hand in Corsica, also known as the “Isle of Beauty”. Its flowers yield a precious oil, which protects the skin from aging with its anti-free radical properties. It also stimulates cellular renewal and increases sixfold* the production of collagen, the skin’s “mattress” fibers: it’s a real source of youth for your skin.

Shea butter is extracted from the nuts of a tree that grows wild in Burkina Faso and its smallscale harvesting makes it even more precious. It is a veritable treasure for dry and dehydrated skin, as it nourishes and protects the skin. With its unsaponifiable elements, it also accelerates the renewal of young cells and repairs the invisible hydrolipidic film that gives the skin its strength. Shea butter leaves the skin supple and truly protected, while restoring its ideal moisturization levels.

 

 

Ultra comforting care for sensitive skin.
Stinging, flush marks, pain, redness, and itching are everyday realities for sensitive skin. This is a result of the skin’s “barrier” no longer performing its proper function. With less protection, the epidermis is exposed to outside stress and becomes more reactive. This sensitivity causes skin to become uncomfortable, irritated and sensitive, so that the sensation can become unbearable. There is one solution: soothe and support it. L’OCCITANE has developed a range of Shea and Organic Cotton facial care products that meet the needs of the most delicate and fragile skin.
