BEAUTY SELECTION
What are today’s must-have skincare products? All the answers are in this dossier, which will help you face winter in the best possible conditions and look your best.
For hair:
– Naturia shampoo by René Furterer is gentle and balancing. A combination of natural essences (basil, mint and caraway) and vitamins (B5 and B6), it cleans and purifies the scalp and hair. Use as often as desired. THE reference. Also note: Ducray Extra Doux shampoo is now biodegradable.
– Recognized as one of the world’s top hairdressers, Alain Zinzius has run a number of salons (notably on the Champs Elysées). He has also won the Coupe d’Europe and the Coupe du Monde de Coiffure. Today, a permanent member of the Intercoiffure Monde Internal Committee, he works in parallel at Desfossé, the prestigious Paris salon. His talent as a hairdresser, as well as a visagist, is exceptional (19 avenue Matignon – 75008 Paris).
For the body:
– Melvita has created a purifying, aluminum-, paraben- and alcohol-free deo roll-on. A powerful combination of natural active ingredients based on Alum, Australian Sandalwood and Green Tea Polyphenols.
– Pininfarina has teamed up with Mennen to create the design for the new Tri Diffusion 72h deo spray. A collector’s item available in several colors.
– Melvita shower scrub, a delight of yellow fruits, soap-free and PH-neutral.
– Klorane instant woody shower gel, also PH neutral and soap-free, with notes of thyme, amber and spices.

– Hydra-Body by Liérac, two treatments with exceptional moisturizing and smoothing powers (a milk and a scrub). And Luminescence, a complexion-perfecting cream that reactivates the skin’s original luminosity and blurs imperfections.
– Energizing facial cleanser, moisturizing anti-aging fluid, vitality body and hair shower gel…Sothys has created a superb range for men based on magnesium-rich volcanic stone (available exclusively in institutes and spas).

For men, Liérac has invented Premium, a complete anti-aging fluid, anti-wrinkle, anti-fatigue and soothing. Pure hyaluronic acid, taurine, guarana, caffeine…an exceptional treatment that can be used as an aftershave.
– the Homme Concentrée Anti-Taches formula from Clinique, the famous American brand. Created to reduce dark spots and give a more even complexion, it contains antioxidants and Daniella Ensifolia extract (a rare Asian plant). In addition, the daily moisturizing gel and fluid are a must, as is the whole range.
