DESCRIPTION
SERUM
The red camellia, source of youth for the skin.
The N°1 DE CHANEL serum helps to visibly smooth skin and preserve its youthful appearance. Wrinkles appear instantly smoother, and efficacy triples after 2 months(1). Its formula is enriched with a powerful duo of active ingredients selected by CHANEL Research:
- Red camellia extract, a super-antioxidant, doubles skin's antioxidant capacity(2), helping to preserve its youthful appearance.
- An oligopeptide supports the key markers of skin youth: collagen, hyaluronic acid and fibronectin, which are naturally found in the skin.
This high-performance serum strengthens skin's defences in the face of a fast-paced urban lifestyle, which accelerates skin ageing. Day after day, skin looks youthfully radiant.

The N°1 DE CHANEL cream formula is highly concentrated in red camellia extract and a camellia ceramide. It targets the signs of youth, addressing the appearance of wrinkles, pores, elasticity and radiance.
Its refillable packaging is designed for repeated use.
ACTIVE INGREDIENTS
CAMELLIA SCIENCE FOR SKIN'S YOUTH.
Red camellias can live for up to 200 years(1), defying time itself with their extraordinary longevity. Backed by 19 years of studies and an understanding of the camellia on a molecular level, CHANEL Research selected a powerful youth-boosting active ingredient: red camellia extract.
The flower is transformed into an active ingredient using a three-step extraction process: the petals first undergo cold fragmentation, and their antioxidant properties are then released through hydrofusion. Finally, the resulting solution is purified.
Red camellia extract, a super-antioxidant that contains a high concentration of a polyphenol and is as effective as vitamin C(2), doubles skin's antioxidant capacity(3). It also supports skin vitality(4), helping to preserve its youthful appearance.

HOW TO USE
SERUM
CHANEL has developed LE GESTE REVITALISANT N°1 DE CHANEL, a specific application technique designed to improve the effectiveness of the serum.
Turn the cap of the face serum counter-clockwise and dispense the perfect amount of product with the auto-fill dropper.
Smooth the product over the entire face and décolleté.
Then, use your thumbs and index fingers to perform twisted pinching movements from the jaw up to the ears, then from the corners of the mouth to the ears, and from the sides of the nose to the ears. Repeat these pinching movements on the décolleté.
Follow with the N°1 DE CHANEL cream in the morning and evening.
CREAM
Apply the N°1 DE CHANEL cream to the face and neck every morning and evening, after applying the serum. Lightly tap the skin with your fingertips for a longer-lasting youthful glow.
Using the palms of your hands, gently smooth from the jawline up to the ears, from the sides of the nose to the ears, from the centre of the forehead to the temples and, finally, from the ears down to the neck.
Skin is left looking plumper and youthfully radiant.
