An absolute favourite in Base Skin! Hailed as a ‘true marriage of science and beauty’, Crème Masque Vernix virtually reproduces the original composition of the newborn’s vernix – the first epidermal protective barrier at birth – thanks to a selection of active ingredients rich in lipids, proteins and antioxidant peptides. Vernix, a sebaceous waxy substance, has powerful healing properties, balances the pH of the skin and inhibits the growth of bacteria for a multi-pronged approach to skin replenishment. This 2-in-1 product helps recondition and strengthen deficient and/or stressed epidermis by offering it a “second birth”; it can either be used as a mask or a cream, for those in need of an intensive treatment. Thanks to its hydrating, repairing and protecting actions, Crème Masque Vernix reduces trans-epidermal water loss, repairs the DNA of skin cells damaged by UV rays and minimises the effects of ageing. How to use: Apply Crème Masque Vernix as a daily night cream or use as a mask by applying a thick layer to the entire face, neck and décolleté. Leave for 15 minutes, then rinse excess product with cold water.
