If you’re someone who gets a bit overwhelmed with skincare, and are after a product that basically ‘does it all’ in one handy tube, we’ve got the perfect skincare hero for you - and it’s loved by celebrities such as Michelle Keegan, Sydney Sweeny, and even Kim Kardashian.
Now you’d think with such an impressive roster of famous fans it would be pretty pricey, but luckily for us Embryolisse’s Lait-Crème Concentre is super affordable, priced from just £13.99 for a 50ml bottle on Cult Beauty.
Hailed as the ‘anti-ageing wonder cream’ by a host of makeup artists, the multi-tasking product is rich in essential fatty acids and vitamins, which are ideal for creating smooth, supple and wrinkle-free skin.
The multipurpose moisturiser is great for freeing up space in your cupboards too as it acts as a skin primer for under makeup, a daily moisturiser to hydrate skin or even as a makeup remover due to the formula containing water and Stearic acid which is great for lifting dirt and makeup from the skin.
Plenty of shoppers have left five-star reviews on Cult Beauty, calling the product ‘the best primer’ and ‘a skincare must-have.’
Kim Kardashian weighs in on sister feud after Kourtney's sad 'outsider' claimsOne delighted customer said: “I have bought this multiple times because of how much I love it. The best skin prep for makeup and for all the primers I've tried this is the best! I have sensitive and oily skin and this doesn't clog up my pores or feels too thick on this skin. Would highly recommend!”
A second added: “No wonder this is a cult product! Sits very well under make up without being heavy or greasy, doesn’t interfere with foundation and helps me look Dewy all day.”
While a third said: “I cannot praise this enough, I have dry-ish skin and this just does the job. It's the best base for makeup especially in the colder months. It's a cult favourite for a reason and a staple in my routine.”
Although the product is suitable for all skin types, those with slightly more sensitive skin can opt for the Lait-Creme Sensitive, which has been branded a 'hero' product because of its unbelievable 7-in-1 uses - and it’s even on sale for £21.59 at Lookfantastic now.
While many people swear by the persian cream - including celebs, some found the consistency a little too thick, and felt it left their face looking ‘greasy’ rather than glowy.
If you’re looking for a great alternative, and are sticking to the French pharmacy skincare vibe, La Roche-Posay’s Effaclar Duo+M Anti-Blemish Corrective Gel Moisturiser is another great multi-use product to add to your collection.
Combining a spot cream and a moisturiser, it’s perfect for blemish-prone skin, and many shoppers have praised it for its lack of greasiness and amazing results.
