KEY INGREDIENTS

The Red Camellia is a flower unlike any other and the key ingredient at the heart of N°1 DE CHANEL. A flower with revitalizing powers, whose extraordinary energy gives it perennial youth. CHANEL Research has harnessed its exceptional properties to create a new generation of products, including skincare, makeup and a fragrance mist. Red Camellia Extract targets the signs of the N°1 stage of skin’s aging process by preventing and correcting the appearance of the 5 signs of aging.

HOW TO APPLY

CHANEL has developed a massage technique to complement N°1 DE CHANEL REVITALIZING ESSENCE LOTION.

Start by performing stretching movements on the forehead, eye area and smile lines. Then, apply the essence lotion to the entire face, smoothing outward. Next, use your thumbs and index fingers to lightly pinch skin from the jaw up to the ears, from the corners of the mouth to the ears and, finally, from the sides of the nose to the ears. Repeat these movements on the décolleté. Complete the ritual by following with the N°1 DE CHANEL REVITALIZING EYE CREAM and REVITALIZING SERUM.

Why is the collection named N°1 DE CHANEL?

True to Gabrielle Chanel’s spirit and aligned with her avant-garde vision, the name of this line is a number. N°1 DE CHANEL is also the first collection from the House to unite skincare, makeup and a fragrance mist, embodying a new generation of beauty that returns to the essentials. The House’s iconic flower, the camellia, is the N°1 ingredient and has been proven to be exceptionally effective at targeting the first signs of aging.

Why is the Red Camellia significant?

The Camellia japonica plant, which blooms in winter and features evergreen leaves, is a remarkable botanical treasure. Also known as the Red Czar Camellia, it is extraordinarily rich in protocatechuic acid, a powerful molecule CHANEL Research discovered to be unique to this particular camellia flower. The ingredient possesses exceptional revitalizing properties and helps support skin’s vitality.

In which order should N°1 DE CHANEL products be used?

First, purify and refresh skin with the powder-to-foam cleanser and prep for the rest of your routine with the lotion. Target signs of aging with the eye cream, serum and serum-in-mist, and lock in hydration with the refillable face cream. Next, create a clean canvas with the buildable foundation before adding a touch of colour with the lip and cheek balm. Complete your ritual with a spritz of L’EAU ROUGE fragrance mist.
