product information

PRODUCT

A refill designed to replenish SUBLIMAGE LE SÉRUM. Enriched with a regenerating complex, this redefining serum addresses the appearance of all youth parameters*. At the heart of the formula is polyfractioned Vanilla Planifolia, along with 2 key ingredients—a lipopeptide and Solidago extract—chosen for their complementary rejuvenating properties. Immediately, skin looks smooth and emanates a sublime radiance. Day after day, facial contours appear more sculpted and the complexion looks firmer.

SUBLIMAGE LE SÉRUM features a velvety texture that melts effortlessly upon application, enveloping skin in a feeling of freshness and softness. Instantly absorbed, the serum preps for subsequent products in the SUBLIMAGE ritual.

KEY INGREDIENTS

CHANEL Research has created an exclusive formula infused with exceptionally potent ingredients that each offer remarkable firming and strengthening benefits.

Selected by CHANEL in 1995 from more than 117 vanilla varieties for its extraordinary richness in polyketones, Vanilla Planifolia is grown and harvested at the House’s open-sky laboratory in Madagascar. After several years of study, CHANEL Research developed a specific polyfractioning process that makes it possible to harness the plant’s power in 3 steps: extraction, purification and molecular distillation. Polyfractioned Vanilla Planifolia is an ultra-pure extract 40 times more concentrated in effective molecules than the raw material.

This signature SUBLIMAGE ingredient is combined with a lipopeptide, which encourages rejuvenation, as well as Solidago extract to help restore the look of skin.

HOW TO APPLY

Every morning and evening, apply a few drops of SUBLIMAGE LE SÉRUM to the forehead and cheeks. Use both hands to smooth over the face from the center outward. Follow with SUBLIMAGE LA CRÈME.

Enhance the routine with LE GESTE SUBLIME RADIANCE, a technique inspired by the savoir-faire of CHANEL skincare experts. Massage from the center of the face outward using deep circular movements. Begin under the chin, massaging along the jaw and up toward the ears. Next, massage from the jaw up to the cheeks and toward the temples. Finish on the forehead, moving from the center of the face to the temples. Repeat these movements 3 times.

The drawn-glass refill can be inserted into the SUBLIMAGE LE SÉRUM bottle.

*Evaluation of comprehensive skincare benefits as defined by CHANEL Research: hydration, comfort, wrinkles, firmness, elasticity, density, uniformity, strength and radiance
