WHAT IT IS A luxurious cleansing ritual with a sumptuous black gel formula combining the regenerating power of the Black Sap of Vital Algae with the purifying properties of a duo of natural French clays. 5.9 oz. Made in France. HOW TO USE IT Preparation: After removing makeup, wet the face with warm water and apply a generous amount of the product onto the skin. Massage: Perform the massage inspired by the Japanese Kobido ritual, an age-old revitalizing technique. Knead the face from chin to the ears, then from the nose to the cheeks. Apply pressure to the forehead with open hands. Smooth the face in outward strokes, moving from the forehead to beneath the chin. Polish: Using the moistened sponge, lather the product using little circular strokes. Rinse face thoroughly with warm water. Rinse the sponge well after use and leave it to air-dry. ABOUT THE BRAND A pioneer of 20th-century fashion, Hubert de Givenchy’s namesake collection of architectural pieces redefined the dress codes of the era. Since its debut in 1952, the French house has remained at the forefront of craftsmanship and tailoring in its ready-to-wear and couture. Today, under Creative Director Matthew M. Williams, the brand’s offering now includes beauty, and a decidedly modern spin on separates, suiting, shoes and handbags.
