Brilliant performers: A dynamic skincare duo
A spotlight on Aesop’s Immaculate Facial Tonic and Lucent Facial Concentrate
Last year, Aesop’s star skincare item is the Immaculate Facial Tonic, a toner designed to gently exfoliate and refine the skin for a smooth, refreshed complexion. This year, it has been paired with another great performer as they’ve expand their skincare lineup, the Lucent Facial Concentrate. This serum is packed with vitamin C which is formulated to brighten and clarify the skin, perfectly complementing the Immaculate Facial Tonic.
The Immaculate Facial Tonic combines Mucor Miehei Extract, a gentle chemical exfoliant, with hydrating and soothing ingredients like Panthenol (provitamin B5), Niacinamide (vitamin B3), Saccharide Isomerate, and Galactoarabinan. Together, these components help balance, soften, and support the skin. The Lucent Facial Concentrate focuses on Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate (a stable form of vitamin C), which promotes a more even and radiant skin tone over time.
“While both formulations deliver vitamin-enriched hydration with a soft, light finish, it is their individual qualities that combine to form a remarkable regimen,” says Samy Hamada, Aesop’s director of research and development. “Immaculate Facial Tonic refines the texture of the skin through the inclusion of a gentle chemical exfoliant, Mucor Miehei Extract, while Lucent Facial Concentrate delivers generous measures of Vitamin C to help even and brighten the appearance of the skin with continued use.”
To use these products together, begin with the Immaculate Facial Tonic after cleansing. Pour a small amount into cupped hands and gently press it onto the face and neck. Follow with the Lucent Facial Concentrate by dispensing one to two pipettes into your palms, warming the serum slightly, and then pressing it evenly over the face and neck.
For those looking to enhance their experience, Aesop offers a 60-minute in-store session featuring these products as part of their Facial Appointments.
The Immaculate Facial Tonic is priced at P2,600 (100ml), while the Lucent Facial Concentrate retails for P6,200 (60ml). With these two products, achieving a balanced and luminous complexion has never been easier.
