Collection: Embryolisse

Lait-Crème Concentré is a 24-hour hydrating cream that has been a backstage staple at fashion weeks for decades — used by professional makeup artists as a moisturiser, primer, makeup remover and after-shave. The formula is built around shea butter, soy proteins, beeswax and aloe — simple, time-tested ingredients that hydrate without stripping. The texture is lightweight enough for daily wear but rich enough to comfort dry skin, which is why it's earned a place in the routines of supermodels, beauty editors and skincare minimalists worldwide.

The original Lait-Crème Concentré contains light fragrance and the classic formula that's worked for decades on most skin types. The Sensitive version is fragrance-free and reformulated with skin-soothing actives like centella and bisabolol, making it suitable for users with reactive, redness-prone or post-procedure skin who can't tolerate fragrance. Both versions deliver the same multi-use functionality (moisturiser, primer, gentle cleanser), but the Sensitive variant is the safer choice for fragrance-allergic or rosacea-prone skin.

Backstage at fashion weeks, makeup artists apply Lait-Crème as the final skincare step before makeup — a generous layer is patted onto clean skin, then left for 2–3 minutes to fully absorb before foundation is applied. The cream creates a smooth, hydrated base that helps foundation blend more evenly and prevents the dry-patchy look common on dehydrated skin. The soy proteins and shea butter give the skin a soft, glowy quality that photographs beautifully. It also doubles as a 'pat-on' touch-up cream throughout the day to revive tired skin.

Yes — Lait-Crème Concentré is gentle enough to remove light to medium makeup. Massage a small amount onto dry skin, let the cream dissolve makeup for 30–60 seconds, then wipe off with a damp cotton pad or muslin cloth, and follow with a water-based cleanser if removing heavy makeup or SPF. For heavy waterproof makeup, a dedicated cleansing oil or balm is more effective, but Lait-Crème works beautifully for everyday, light makeup days. This dual-purpose use is one reason Embryolisse is so loved for travel.

Yes — the Lait-Crème works in any climate because it's a balanced cream that doesn't lock in heat or feel greasy. In humid weather, apply a thinner layer in the morning under SPF and makeup; in dry, air-conditioned indoor environments common in the UAE, apply a more generous layer to combat dehydration. For combination or oily skin types in summer, the Sensitive version often feels lighter on the skin. Many UAE residents pair Embryolisse with a lightweight SPF50+ on top for a complete daily routine.
