My Reading Room

Rough skin texture, lack of moisture, uneven skin tone, crow’s feet, laugh lines and wrinkles… These are just some of the key age markers that inevitably show up due to accrued environmental assaults, hormonal changes, slower cell renewal, as well as collagen and elastin breakdown.

AGE-DEFYING BEAUTY

It’s possible to keep skin looking younger and glowing with the right skincare, such as Lancôme’s Absolue Precious Cells Day Cream. This easily absorbed face moisturiser plumps and hydrates to reduce the look of fine lines and deep furrows, giving you a smoother skin texture. Plus, it has broad-spectrum SPF15 to protect against UV damage.

All these benefits are thanks to a combination of Dermal-Reconstruction Complex (powered by extracts of Swiss apple and linseed) and Pro-Xylane (an exclusive sugar-protein hybrid that helps skin retain moisture). They work hand in hand to supposedly strengthen skin and improve its regenerative properties.

On top of that, the formula boasts an exclusive blend of rose distillate derived from the Damask Rose through a cold distillation technology. This ingredient is said to have skin-regenerative and -healing properties.

The cream also has CO2 rose extract from the Centifolia rose, also known as Rose de Mai. Handpicked annually in the month of May – hence its moniker – this rose hybrid is specifically chosen for its ability to soothe skin.
