The Biologique Recherche Guide

Biologique Recherche
Cleansers and Milks

The first step of any Biologique Recherche protocol. Cleansing milks that remove impurities, pollution and make-up while respecting the skin barrier, each made for a different skin. Here is how to choose yours.

The first step of every protocol

In the Biologique Recherche method, cleansing comes first, morning and evening. Each Lait is formulated for a different Skin Instant®, so you choose by how your skin is today, not by a fixed skin type. Massage over dry face, neck and décolleté, then remove with cool water or a damp cloth. Follow with the Lotion P50 suited to your skin, then your serums and cream.

Questions

Good to know

Should I double cleanse?

Each cleanser works on its own or as part of a double cleanse. For a double cleanse, start with a purifying product such as Lait S.R., then follow with the cleanser suited to your skin.

What comes after cleansing?

Lotion P50. It completes the cleanse, exfoliates and rebalances the skin so your serums and cream work at full efficacy. Choose the P50 suited to your skin.

Should I rinse or use a cotton pad?

The Laits can be rinsed with cool water or removed with a soft damp cloth. Eau Micellaire Biosensible is applied with a cotton pad and needs no rinsing.

Which cleanser is right for me?

Your skin changes with the seasons, stress and travel, so the right cleanser can change too. Our estheticians can assess your Skin Instant® at our Upper East Side and Tribeca locations.
