Pressed Night Serum

Bring the evening to a close.

Bring the evening to a close.

You wash the day away and a question remains: is that all? At the atelier, we believe the evening deserves a calm ending of its own.

The ingredients

The ingredients

Plum kernel oil

  1. The line's signature and the serum's largest oil. Cold-pressed, rich in oleic acid and natural tocopherols.
  2. It spreads into a thin, silky, non-greasy layer. The kernel lends it a delicate note of almond.

Cupuaçu butter

  1. The largest share of the disc, and what holds its shape. It melts on warm skin: press, then melt.
  2. From a cousin of cocoa. Hard on the shelf, it softens under your finger before you can spread it.

Apricot kernel butter

  1. The serum's second kernel. It softens the disc and keeps it setting smooth, never grainy.
  2. Apricot and plum are cousins from the same genus of trees. A pale, soft butter, creamy to the touch.

Calendula macerate

  1. Calendula flowers give the oil their golden-coral colour. One of the serum's three macerates.
  2. An old method: flowers, oil and time. In the disc, they leave a warm, golden tone.

St John's wort macerate

  1. An ingredient traditionally used in regenerative evening skincare. This serum is for evening use.
  2. Yellow St John's wort flowers in oil: the oil turns a warm red-gold.

Nettle macerate

  1. The third macerate, this time from a leaf. Nettle from Polish flora, known from every field edge.
  2. Chlorophyll leaves a barely visible greenish tint in the oil: the trace of a leaf in the disc.

Sea buckthorn extract

  1. A CO2 extract of the orange berries, not the seeds, dense with carotenoids and omega-7 fatty acids.
  2. A few drops tip the whole mass towards a warm, orange gold: the autumn colour of the berries.

Birch bark extract

  1. Supports skin regeneration and the skin barrier. It is betulin: what the birch keeps in its bark.
  2. The white, crystalline powder that gives the bark its white. Added to the cooled mass, it vanishes into the serum.

Bakuchiol

  1. Retinol-like action with better tolerance than retinol. The evidence concerns the ingredient itself, not this formula.
  2. A compound from babchi seeds, soluble in oil. A pale golden drop added to the cooled mass.
