What it is and what it does
The Story
Elevating skin’s natural fortitude, #1 The Crème is a sumptuous hydrator designed to augment and replenish the skin’s natural lipid barrier.
Skin calmness and strength are nurtured as a more hydrated, uplifted and radiant complexion is revealed.
The Promise
• Strengthens skin resilience
• Inundates skin with rich hydration
• Skin appears calmer and firmer
• Restores moisture and smooths skin texture
• Youthful radiance is reawakened
The Ritual
Smooth gently over face, neck, décolletage and backs of hands.
Use in synergy with your RATIONALE Essential Six formulations for remarkable skin luminosity.
The Research
Targeted cells and tissues form the skin’s own specialized immune system, playing a vital daily role in the prevention of environmental damage, allergy and disease.
Skin immunity, clarity and firmness are directed by a delicately balanced interfusion of biologically active barrier lipids including ceramides, triglycerides and cholesterol. This protective function is fortified by the flexible yet stalwart proteins of the Stratum Corneum’s outermost cells, the corneocytes.
Synthesis and maintenance of these vital barrier constituents is highly dependent on Stratum Corneum moisture levels, supported by B-group vitamins, signaling peptides and Essential Fatty Acids.
Who it is for
