    Kaolin, or white clay, is a natural ingredient that absorbs excess sebum and helps eliminate impurities. Cleanses pores and tightens skin texture.

  • Purifies

    Gentle purifying agents regulate bacterial flora and sebum production to cleanse the skin without stripping its barrier function. Particularly suited to combination to oily skin.

  • Preserves

    Contains moisturising plant glycerine to help preserve skin hydration.

Is this care suitable
for your skin?

  • When

    Once or twice a week, depending on skin type: - twice a week for combination to oily skin, - once a week for normal to combination skin.

  • Where

    Apply to the entire face, avoiding the eye contour area. Apply to clean, dry skin.

  • How

    Apply a thin layer to the face and leave on for 5 to 10 minutes. Rinse thoroughly with warm water, then gently dry without rubbing. May also be used on specific areas (forehead, nose, chin) to locally tighten skin texture and diminish small blemishes (pimples, blackheads).

This formula contains 99.4% biomimetic ingredients, which are in perfect affinity with the skin (found naturally within the skin, similar to the components naturally present in the skin or perfectly assimilable by the skin). These ingredients have an intensely purifying effect on facial skin.

They have been carefully selected for their degree of purity.

  • What does the clay do?

    Kaolin, or white clay, is a natural ingredient used to absorb excess sebum and help eliminate impurities. It unblocks pores and gently tightens skin texture.

  • How often should I use a purifying mask?

    Once a week for normal to combination skin. For oily skin or if you have numerous or frequent spots or blackheads, use a mask twice a week for greater efficacy.

  • How does the Express Purifying Mask work on dilated pores?

    Clay can absorb the excess sebum in dilated facial pores. The Express Purifying Mask removes impurities and soothes skin.

  • Is the Express Purifying Mask recommended for sensitive skin?

    Yes, our Express Purifying Mask is formulated to be kind to facial skin and is tested on sensitive skin. Keeping in mind, we don't recommend using more than once a week for the most sensitive and weakened skin.

  • What is the difference between Pure Skincare and Pure Actives?

    Pure Skincare products do not contain any active ingredients, to take care of skin every day, without needlessly irritating it. Pure Actives offer a targeted action to treat skin problems when necessary (1 Pure Active = 1 skin issue). Healthy skin with no particular issues does not need Pure Actives.

  • How can Pure Skincare products be effective without any active ingredients?

    They are specifically formulated to give healthy skin with no particular issues what it needs, to cleanse and moisturise it while preserving its natural mechanisms. Adding in active ingredients that the skin doesn’t need can damage it. Over 98% of the ingredients in our Pure Skincare products are biomimetic (global Biomimetic© patent), for perfect affinity with the skin.

  • Do your products contain fragrances?

    Our Pure Actives do not contain fragrances, nor do some of the other care products such as the Moisturising Eye Contour Fluid, the Melting Exfoliating Gel and the Express Purifying Mask. The majority of our Pure Skincare products are very lightly scented to make them pleasant to use while being kind to skin. We carefully select our fragrances, which we create ourselves, and make sure they are free from allergens and sensitising substances.

  • What makes Pure Skincare special?

    Pure Skincare products do not contain any active ingredients, to cleanse and moisturise the skin every day. The biomimetic formulation of all Pure Skincare products is in perfect affinity with the skin so as to strengthen the natural processes without overtreating. Healthy skin with no particular issues does not need superfluous active ingredients that risk irritating it.

  • Are your products tested on animals?

    No, in accordance with the applicable European cosmetics regulations, our products and the ingredients they contain are not tested on animals. Toxicology experts have evaluated our formulas’ perfect tolerance. And, of course, our products are tested under dermatological and ophthalmological supervision if necessary.

  • Do your products contain preservatives?

    In order to protect our formulas from contamination, we use the necessary amount of natural preservatives (black radish extract, potassium sorbate or capryloyl glycine). We also use airless bottles, pumps and tubes to limit the risk of contamination, and therefore the quantity of preservatives.
