Overview of Lancôme cosmetics with vitamins
The most important beauty vitamin is vitamin C.
In these novelties, Lancôme focuses on one of the most effective beauty vitamins – C and A. Recall that the brand produced similar products 20 years ago, when ascorbic acid and retinol were at the peak of popularity. Those products were called Vitabolic and Re-Surface and deservedly considered very effective. When the fashion for active vitamins passed, creams were discontinued. Now their “descendants” come out in the innovative line of the Visionnaire brand. Both new products contain a high concentration of active ingredients and solve specific skin problems.
Anti-Dullness Vitamin C Concentrate Visionnaire, Lancôme
Vitamin C is well known for its ability to stimulate the synthesis of collagen, a key component for skin elasticity, but this compound is unstable, meaning it breaks down when exposed to light and air. Lancôme was able to stabilize the moody substance and preserve its properties. The concentrate combats uneven skin tone and dullness, improves skin elasticity.
Night corrective anti-wrinkle concentrate with retinol Visionnaire, Lancôme
Retinol is an active form of vitamin A, which is able to stimulate cell renewal and the synthesis of elastin fibers, as well as combat uneven skin texture. It is thanks to these properties that the component was included in the composition of the night concentrate. After using it, the quality of the skin is noticeably improved, and mimic wrinkles are smoothed out. Since the formula contains retinol, which increases the sensitivity of the skin to the sun’s rays, the product should only be applied in the evening, before going to bed. Use sunscreen during the day and avoid prolonged exposure to the sun. The manufacturer recommends using the concentrate twice a week at first. And gradually move on to nightly application.
Step-by-step instructions for using concentrates
Vitamin C Concentrate must be shaken before use. The product is applied to dry, cleansed skin, avoiding the area around the eyes. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen during and for a week after using the product.
Night corrective concentrate for the face with retinol, use a few hours before bedtime. A small amount of the product (about a pea) is applied to cleansed skin, bypassing the area around the eyes and lips. Recommended to use during the day with SPF.
