If you want to find out more about this skin-perfecting cream, read on.

The Most Important Thing About This Product Is…

The Institut Esthederm Propolis+ Cream is a daily moisturiser that enhances the skin with its blurring abilities; it smooths and mattifies oily skin and blurs imperfections. It tackles the bacteria that are responsible for acne and blemishes and inhibits its production so you can achieve a clear and decongested complexion that’s free from imperfections. Not only does it reduce spots, but it works to smooth away wrinkles, too and has anti-ageing abilities thanks to its antioxidant protection. The lightweight and non-greasy texture provide an instant mattifying effect on the skin for an instantly enhanced finish.

You Will Love This If…

If you’re prone to blemishes or adult acne, then this is the day cream for you. It’s ideal if you struggle with oiliness as the mattifying effect combats shininess for a blurred finish.

Hero Ingredients:

The Institut Esthederm face cream uses certified organic propolis, which is twice more effective as the previous formula in reducing the bacteria that causes acne. This new bio-sourced propolis comes from a small producer in France. It is certified organic and also has an enhanced concentration of polyphenols, which offer antioxidant defence while helping the skin’s DNA repair process. The cream is also enriched with ferulic acid, which neutralises free radicals to help slow down their ageing effect on the skin. An added anti-wrinkle peptide is included to smooth away fine lines and fend off the signs of ageing, while a hearty dose of mattifying powder leaves the complexion shine-free and flawless.

What Skin Type Is It For?

How Do You Use The Product?
