Probably one of the most asked questions I get is "Which P50 should I choose"? There's a reason why Biologique Recherche has developed 6 variants, because having the perfect match means it's going to work its magic right on pointe.  So, back to the question... and before we answer it, you need to know your skin instant or skin condition.

If you are already acquainted with this amazing French cult brand, then chances are you would have heard about the mystic and rather enigmatic "Finishing Serums". These are a special, unique group of serums sharing similar characteristics: Large molecule size - Finishing serums are not meant to be absorbed into skin as our regular serums tend to do. They were built to sit on top of skin as a protective shield, not allowing external attackers (pollution, free radicals etc) to invade our nicely primed skin. Sophisticated and complex formulations - They may look tiny but are anything but. Once applied, they...

Many do not quite "mature" to a pimple with a "head" but look uneven, bumpy and gives rise to lack-lustre skin.

Just when we think sunscreen is enough for that, think again. We are constantly exposed to not only UV radiation, but also pollution, ozone, and other harmful visible and non-visible forms of radiation. The role of Antioxidants is a powerful one - they neutralize the damaging effects of free radical reactions that transpire under the surface of our skin.   The problem for me and many others is that until now, it has been challenging finding...
