Chanel Hydra Beauty Micro Crème Five patents and 5,000 apparently visible micro droplets per 50ml of product mark out this hyper-hydrating new concentrate as something special. A number of exclusive ingredients are notable – from a ginger extract, which acts as a protector against skin stressors, to polyphenol rich camellia, to guard against water evaporation and encourage skin to replenish – but the real wonder here is the extraordinary transforming texture upon application. Smooth it on as a watery-like fluid that immediately becomes thick with the presence of jellified droplets, and offers quite the blissful sensory experience. Hydrating effects of the cream are said to last for 24 hours.
