Biologique Recherche
Soothing Routine

Formulas for sensitive or reactive skin. They soothe and help strengthen the skin barrier for a calmer, more balanced-looking complexion.

Calm first, then strengthen

Sensitive or reactive skin needs to be soothed and its barrier supported. Biologique Recherche combines a gentle lotion, targeted serums and protecting crèmes into a personalized routine for a calmer, more balanced-looking complexion. Cleanse gently, keep the steps simple and introduce one new product at a time.

Questions

Good to know

Can I use Lotion P50 on sensitive skin?

Yes, with the right formula. Lotion P50W is the gentlest P50, balancing exfoliating acids with soothing ingredients. Begin every other day and increase as your skin adjusts.

Which cream is best for redness?

Crème V. Espoir is made for redness. Pair it with Sérum Biosensible, which also targets redness.

How do I introduce new products to sensitive skin?

One at a time, a few days apart, so you can see how your skin responds. If a product stings or causes redness that lasts, stop using it and speak with your esthetician.

Is this routine right for my skin?

Sensitivity has many causes, and the right protocol depends on your Skin Instant®. Our estheticians can assess your skin at our Upper East Side and Tribeca locations.

A calmer, more balanced complexion.
