Brightening, de-puffing, detoxifying mask for a more vibrant complexion / 1.67 oz
BioRecept Lumière de Peau is an anti-pollution, pre/post-party mask designed to wake up the skin — or, as its creator, Anne Dupouy-Camet puts it, to “give the skin cells a little slap.” It brightens and de-puffs not by exfoliating, but by stimulating the skin’s natural processes of cellular respiration and detoxification with four key ingredients:
- Nelumbo Nucifera, a lotus flower with anti-pollutant properties that helps purify the skin, giving it a fresher and more vibrant look
- Arnica, which triggers microcirculation and stimulates the skin’s own detoxification process
- Horse chestnut, which keeps blood vessels strong and supported while the arnica does its work
- Caffeine, a powerful antioxidant that supports healthy cellular respiration while helping to drain excess puffiness
This final part is a big deal. Caffeine is one of those elusive ingredients that could help support internal antioxidant activity while it kicks mitochondrial activity into higher gear. (If you don’t know what we’re talking about, click here for the full scoop on mitochondria and cellular respiration.)
Lumière de Peau is our go-to product for those dealing with puffiness and lackluster skin from pollution, overindulgence, or general “I feel blah”-ness. Apply it for 15-30 minutes before a party for a fresh-faced, vibrant look; slather it on your skin as a night treatment after a party to prevent morning puff and give natural detoxification processes a boost. You’ll reach for this jar of golden, jelly-like goodness again and again.
Due to its super detoxifying qualities, we don’t recommend this product for skin that’s prone to eczema and flushing. Check out our detailed usage instructions below.
How to Use
If your skin responds well to Lumière de Peau (most skins do), try it overnight; the formula really shines while skin is going through its natural process of detoxification. To do this, apply a thick layer to skin, letting it absorb over the course of the night. (It’s goopy, so this may involve lying on your back and instructing your bedmate to avoid touching you.) If your skin tends to be very dry, apply a layer of Lumière de Peau, then a layer of either Booster Bio or Lycoconfort de Peau.
Use 1-2 times per week. Not recommended for those with eczema or very reactive skin.
