PRODUCT

Exfoliate to restore the appearance of radiance. SUBLIMAGE LA LOTION LUMIÈRE EXFOLIANTE gently lifts away dead skin cells, as well as brightens and evens the look of the complexion. The fluid formula offers a fresh, energizing sensation.

Instantly, skin feels soft, hydrated and comfortable. With each passing day, its texture looks refined and dark spots appear diminished. The complexion looks luminous and better reflects light.

KEY INGREDIENTS

Concentrated with alpha hydroxy acids, this lotion helps encourage renewal and smooths the appearance of surface irregularities.

Anthyllis extract is derived from a resilient plant that thrives in extreme conditions by drawing strength exclusively from light. Today, it is cultivated at the CHANEL open-sky laboratory in the southern French Alps.

Obtained from the green fruit of the SUBLIMAGE line’s emblematic plant, Intense Vanilla Planifolia Water provides antioxidant protection against environmental aggressors.

HOW TO APPLY

Use morning and night as the first step in the SUBLIMAGE LUMIÈRE ritual. With fingertips or a cotton pad, apply to the entire face, moving from the center outward and avoiding the eye area. To complement the product’s efficacy, lightly rub up and down on the cheeks, forehead and nose, as well as over any imperfections.
