French beauty company Sisley Paris has revealed six new products for launch in Fall 2016.
Sisleÿa Le Teint is a new foundation for mature skin which combines the company’s latest skincare advances with a lightweight veil of colour. The anti-ageing foundation claims to provide an immediate rejuvenating effect as well as longer-lasting anti-ageing benefits.
Sisley Paris has added a third anti-ageing benefit to its Sisleÿa L’Intégral Anti-Age product, which aims to target the signs of behavioural ageing. A formulation of Persian acacia extract, chlorella extract and red vine extract works to promote cellular energy production, boost cell metabolism, tone the skin and add radiance. This trio of ingredients has been added to Le Teint.
Active ingredients from the Sisleÿa skincare line claim to provide anti-oxidant and anti-free radical benefits. Soy peptide extract stimulates collagen, white willow extract and vitamin E help to protect the skin and a nourishing, soothing complex of cherry blossom extract and wheat sugar extract derivatives keep skin hydrated and plumped up, according to the brand.
On the make-up side, plant lecithin, which coats the pigments contained in the formula, is said to mimic the structure of lipids naturally present in the skin to give the foundation a comfortable, glide-on texture. A complex of two micas diffuse the light to give the optical illusion of radiance, freshness and a healthy glow. A smoothing base made up of a blurring gel and soft-focus effect micro-particles create a film over the skin, optically smoothing it, minimising skin imperfections and fading the appearance of wrinkles.
The formula, available in eight shades, claims to last for up to eight hours, even in a humid climate.
Tropical Resins, a range first developed 40 years ago by Sisley Paris to treat the needs of oily skin, has been updated with three new products.
According to Sisley Paris, 40% of women over 25 have issues with combination to oily skin, which can be exacerbated by hormonal changes, environmental factors and lifestyle issues such as stress and diet. The Tropical Resins range claims to offer a complete rebalancing skincare routine designed to purify skin; reduce sebum; unclog pores; moisturise skin and reduce imperfections.
New products Gentle Cleansing Gel, Intensive Serum and Mattifying Moisturising Skincare all contain high-performance plant-based active ingredients to purify and soothe the complexion.
Gentle Cleansing Gel is designed to cleanse and purify without stripping the skin of essential moisture. The fresh gel, which rinses off with water, contains a level of benzoin extract that is said to be eight times more effective than that previously used. It also includes myrrh and incense extracts to soothe and reduce redness.
Intensive Serum is described as an SOS product that can unclog pores; refine the texture of the skin and visibly diminish imperfections. Containing Java tea extract and salicylic acid, the Serum has a non-sticky texture with a matte finish. It can be applied to the t-zone or used topically on imperfections and is said to visibly reduce shine and imperfections after seven days.
Mattifying Moisturising Skincare, containing bamboo powder and Lady’s Mantle leaf extract, is a lightweight gel-cream which claims to tighten pores and purify the skin. The cream also works to deliver moisture to the skin, reduce sebum and mattify the complexion.
Double Tenseur Instant and Long-Term is a multi-purpose gel which claims to deliver an instant lifting sensation that lasts all day, as well as providing long-term strengthening of skin’s resilience and tone.
The lift is provided by oat seed extract which forms a ‘flexible 3D mesh’ over the surface of the skin. Rhatany and lemon extracts contain astringent properties which claim to tone and smooth skin texture.
Tiger nut extract and cottonseed extract are said to provide long-term strengthening of skin’s resilience and tone. According to Sisley Paris, skin feels more toned after four weeks’ use of Double Tenseur.
Double Tenseur is fragranced with essential oils of geranium, coriander and lavender. According to Sisley, it can be used in the morning to hide signs of fatigue and to act as a primer under make-up; during the day over make-up to give the complexion an instant boost and in the evening as a ‘flash’ beauty boost before a night out.
Neck Cream, a bestseller for Sisley Paris since its launch in 1981, now features an updated formula. The new Neck Cream claims to firm and smooth the delicate skin of the neck as well as refine and reshape its contours. The non-greasy cream is said to provide an “immediate” lifting sensation from oat seed extract, while soy fibre extract and vitamin E acetate provide anti-oxidant protection and improve skin tone.
A cocktail of active ingredients aims to redefine the contours of the neck and reduce the appearance of a double chin; caffeine speeds up the elimination of fat cells; red algae extract slows fat storage and horse chestnut extract tones and stimulates. Shea butter and sunflower oil claim to provide hydration and nutrition.
