Embryolisse made it to our shores and here is why you should get it!
Considered as one of the holy grail of French beauty, Pharmacy Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré finally made it to Singapore shore.

Created more than 50 years ago by a French dermatologist, the Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré is a moisturising cream that is a must-have in your beauty arsenal. Not only is it a fabulous multitasker, it is also “all type of skin” friendly and comes at a rather steal price (hough in France, it is even cheaper). And because it is available here in Singapore, you don’t have to wait for your next trip to stock up or test it and you don’t have to deal with the hefty online delivery charges that some companies charge.
This product is considered as one of the favourite creams of many makeup artists and a must-have in their kits. After all, it has been reported that one tube is sold every 20 seconds around the world. And here is why.
Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré is a great everyday moisturiser that won’t break the bank, especially on the month where funds are low. You can definitely count on it but it is not only that.

Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré can also be used as a mask when your skin feels dehydrated or has been abused by the environment. It can also be used as a makeup primer as well as post-shaving cream. I personally love to use it as base for a face massage with or without roller. After a day in the sun, this cream is a godsend to re-hydrate your skin while giving it a dewy subtle glow. I use it on my daughter after she plays with kids makeup that are often on the heavy side. It also doubles as a makeup remover making your travel beauty kit a little lighter.
When travelling overseas, I always have a tube as I do slather some while on the plane ride so that on arrival, my skin looks super dehydrated despite the long journey and as well by the much dryer weather that waits for me on arrival.
Not only so I love how great of a multitasker this cream is, I love the fact that a little goes a long way. A tube can last you for months and even if many are not fans of the metallic tube packaging, I enjoy the fact that the products stays germ free that way.

Another tip that I have been testing lately is mixing a heavy foundation with Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré. As a result, I have a tinted moisturiser that helps me stretch my foundation while giving me the right coverage especially during the day in Singapore.
It also comes super handy when I need to go straight from the office to a night out as a little can help you get back the hydration your skin has lost during the day.
As you have guessed I am big fan of this cream, which I discovered more than two decades ago as as student in Paris. And I highly recommend that you have at least one tube at all times. Promise you won’t regret it
I am also happy to know that I have a little more space in my suitcase to bring back other French pharmacy beauty creams that sadly did not make it to Singapore shores yet.
