Why we stand behind it
Designed to glide on like a cloud, absorb swiftly, and keep your skin looking and feeling its best with an antioxidant-rich formula that fends off environmental aggressors, controls excess shine, nourishes, smooths, protects, and refines texture. Infused with natural hydrators and key actives to restore the skin’s barrier, balance oil production and minimise the appearance of pores, fine lines and wrinkles. Its featherweight texture is quickly absorbed, delivering a matt and breathable finish. Skin is delicately energised with notes of geranium, saffron flower, white rose and patchouli.
