Embryolisse, I think, is a French skincare range, and I picked up the Lait Creme Concentre Face Moisturiser (24-Hour Miracle Cream) from Guru Make Up Emporium to try. I am a sucker for really simple skincare – my skin gets irritated easily.
They Say:
Our creamy lotion is really three products in one: the make-up artists use it as a primer, moisturizer, and make-up remover. It also reduces irritation after shaving!
This has a gorgeous texture – its not a thick cream but its not a runny lotion either. Its unscented and sinks into the skin perfectly. Its one of those creams I will keep using, especially when my skin flares up and feels irritated:
Its really nice. Really nice. Just a pleasure to use, something I imagine you can slap on yourself and your baby and you’d just wake up all peachy in the morning. Its got a good amount of hydration and its worked well on my dry skin.
I paid about £18 for this for the 75ml tube, there’s also a 30ml tube – its also on sale on Screenface. Instructions:
AQUA. PARAFFINUM LIQUIDUM. STEARIC ACID. GLYCERYL STEARATE. TRIETHANOLAMINE. CERA ALBA. CETYL PALMITATE. BUTYROSPERMUM PARKII. PHENOXYETHANOL, METHYL PARABEN, BUTYL PARABEN, ISOBUTYL PARABEN, ETHYL PARABEN, PROPYL PARABEN. STEARETH-10. POLYACRYLAMIDE C13-14 ISOPARAFFIN, LAURETH-7. PARFUM. PROPYLENE GLYCOL, HYDROLYZED SOY PROTEIN, ALOE BARBADENSIS.

I looked at the photo of the texture and I can tell what you mean, but I winced at the 2nd ingredient ‘mineral oil’.
Have you ever tried First Aide Beauty Ultra Repair Cream? I recently got a sample in my last Sephora order and it is to DIE for. You can use it on your face and skin and it is free from fragrance, parabens, mineral oil ect ect. If you haven’t tried it, you don’t know what you’re missing! i have to go get the ful sized this week. It’s so good I tried to make the sample last. It even healed up a terrible dry problem elbow. Like the skin is completely healed and smooth now. Good stuff. See if you can get a sample!

Hi,
You listed that the cream is unscented, but i can see it says “parfum”, so i guess it´s not fragrance free?

Hi Rikke
Sorry my mistake – I couldn’t detect any scent in it at all, but if the ingredients say Parfum than there must be some kind of fragrance in it
