Yves Rocher’s Extraordinary Serums

Discover the story behind our innovation: the Anti-Âge Global Night Serum.

The power of the bud and the botanical expertise of Yves Rocher, at the service of an expert anti-aging line: Anti-Age Global.

A simple bud, a powerful anti-aging

Inside the Yves Rocher laboratories, our botanists and phyto-analysts worked together to create the Anti-Age Global range and its unique anti-aging active, bioinspired by Gemmotherapy or the science of buds.

Buds are known to boast superior properties when compared to ‘adult’ plants. The bud alone holds all of the plant’s potential and power. Its cells contain a high concentration of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients.

Thanks to 7 years of research in botanical biotechnology and cell-aging around the bud, our researchers decided to select this precious botanical bud nectar. This concentrate of anti-aging botanical effectiveness works at the core of skin for an exceptional regeneration of its appearance.

Thus, this bioscience innovation*, allowed us to create this duo of expert serums and a line of unique products to fight against all signs of aging.

A unique bi-phased formula

Its innovative texture is made up of a natural hyaluronic acid gel, containing a double concentration of Bud Nectar (compared to the Supra Essence). It is combined with rice inositol and apple oligosaccharides for complete anti-aging effectiveness (benefits: day after day, in the morning, the complexion is luminous, features appear smoothed, wrinkles appear less visible. Skin is firmer, it looks regenerated and repaired*).

This gel is also composed of a golden phase, it contains precious jojoba, borage, grape seed and camelina oils, which, after shaking and applying the product, leaves a pleasant and comforting sensation on skin.

The oily phase is activated by finely mixing it within the hyaluronic acid gel, meaning this bi-phased texture provides a unique sensorial signature, with an enveloping texture that feels soft and light on skin.

A better assimilation of the bud nectar

In addition to this highly sensorial sensation, our skin specialists have demonstrated that this bi-phased texture increases and improves the assimilation of our bud nectar by skin.

This means that the bi-phased formula isn’t simply beautiful to look at and apply, but that it also, and above all, becomes a true impregnation vector of our extract.

Anti-Âge Global, a gem in Yves Rocher’s anti-aging portfolio

Today, Anti-Age Global is the gem in Yves Rocher’s anti-aging portfolio. A product line that brings together all our unique expertise and allows us to fight against all signs of aging and beautify skin.

Our star serum is found at the heart of this line: the Anti-Aging Correcting Supra Essence. Formulated with 95% naturally-sourced ingredients, the Correcting Supra Essence fights against all signs of aging and provides skin with firmness, density, wrinkle appearance reduction, radiance and a even complexion.

Immediately, skin texture is finer, skin is smoothed and radiant. After 1 month, wrinkles appear reduced, skin is firmer, redensified and revitalized.

The tests results speak for themselves : 4 x more new skin cells after 5 days (2).

Recommended use : Shake and apply its ultra-fluid serum-essence, morning and evening while avoiding the eye contour. Do not use on irritated skin and stop suse if irritation occurs.

(2) In vitro test

What next?

In order to take it a step further and to develop the Anti-Age Global anti-aging expertise even more, we’ve decided to focus on a key time frame for skin regeneration: the sleep phase.

And yes, night-time is really THE time frame when cell multiplication is at its maximum, especially between 1 a.m. and 2 a.m. We call this chronobiology: it’s a sort of cycle or even internal clock system that allows skin to reach its regeneration peak during sleep. This moment of high metabolic activity is also the time when ingredients can best penetrate skin.

We have therefore decided to concentrate our research efforts on this crucial moment, night-time, as it seems logical to offer a product that is highly concentrated in ingredients with a penetrating texture that can be applied in the evening. All this, of course, is to be able to offer a complete and expert care routine within Anti-Age Global.

More Nature, Less Plastic

Discover How our Eco-Design Initiative Works

Since the beginning, we believe that there are no small gestures for building a better future. Naturalness and eco-design are the green threads of the development of our products.

REDUCE: less, but better

At Yves Rocher, packaging is reduced to what is essential. We have been working for a long time to reduce our use of plastic.

For example, our concentrated shower gels make it possible, thanks to their formulation, to take as many showers with a small 100ml bottle as with a 400ml bottle. That’s 50%* less plastic per shower, with no less enjoyment.

As for the plastic film covering our skin care and makeup products, we have come up with solutions to eliminate it. Since September 2021, a new openwork case on our skin care product lines lets us generate 40% cardboard savings, i.e., 78 tonnes over one year.

To take it further, we have also created the Green Heroes product line (solid shampoos, face care) effective concentrates, for a ZERO plastic waste alternative. And we continue our efforts a bit more every day to reduce the use of plastic by exploring reload and reuse solutions – stay tuned!

Naturalness and eco-design at Yves Rocher

RECYCLE: Nothing is lost, and everything is transformed

For our packaging, we have chosen to use recyclable materials and recycled materials whenever possible. Since 2020, all of the bottles leaving our plants have been made from 100% recycled plastic, while still being recyclable**. This represents savings of virgin plastic of over 2,700 tonnes a year***.

Today, we are going even further, by asking our countries to start an in-store collection operation in order to offer a recycling solution to consumers for our products that cannot be recycled from home. Used makeup, packaging made of glass, plastic, etc... From Mexico to Malaysia, to Tunisia, Ukraine, Mongolia, Hong Kong, or France initiatives are being implemented with local partners to manage the end of life of your products.

In France, for example, you can drop off used makeup directly at the checkout counter of your store. Our beauty advisors will take care of them for you directly, and send them to our partner, Terracycle, which will handle their recycling.

For the past two years, in Thailand, a major collection and recycling campaign for plastic bottles has been organized by 30 Yves Rocher stores. Customers can drop off their empty bottles in bins provided to that end. The containers will then be recycled into tote bags.

Wherever you are in the world, by taking part in this great collection in one of our stores, you will be making a civic gesture for a greener world. A big thanks from us and the planet as well.

 

We believe that, together, we can change things and move towards less waste for more nature on our beautiful planet.

*Compared to the packaging of a 400 ml shower gel.

**This does not concern: The plastic of flip-top caps, labels and pumps, for which the Group continues to work on the integration of recycled plastic. The bottles of our nail polish removers, which are not currently made of PET for compatibility reasons. Nevertheless, these bottles are still recyclable.

How did you take advantage of the lockdown?

Discover the stories of 3 resilient and inventive people. 

1 year on from the first lockdown discover the stories of three people who took advantage of this situation by showing resilience and inventiveness!

An unusual year

Whether you were in lockdown alone, with your loved ones or with friends, everyone experienced it differently. Faced with an unprecedented situation, people have shown resilience, drawing on their resources to be able to get through this difficult time as best they can. Some even managed to push themselves further. Here are the stories of Gabriella, Élodie and Fiorella, who made the most of it and showed us that a situation like this one can also be beneficial.

Gabriella, Yves Rocher Sweden, surpass yourself

To say that 2020 was a year of reconnecting to nature would be an understatement for me here in Sweden. As a true city girl with a constant need to travel the world and a desire for social interaction, the pandemic forced us all to become creative and let go of many things we thought were the norm and replace it with new possibilities. I have never been more grateful for the gorgeous Nordic nature and the proximity to the sea.

Beach vacations abroad turned into daily walks with my dog along the beach in silence, I started training to be able to swim in the cold sea even during winter without a sauna (and I achieved my goal, I now go for a swim three times a week in 4-degree water) and most importantly I realized that by reconnecting to nature, I was reconnecting to myself and what is important in life; health, the present moment and taking time for myself.

 

Élodie, Yves Rocher Belgium: getting out of your comfort zone

The first lockdown came as a big shock for me, I focused on myself a lot, on what I wanted to do, it gave me the opportunity to take some time to reflect and focus on the essential.

Moreover, at the start of the lockdown I had decided to quit my job after working there for 6 years. I had been very involved with some big changes and I was getting along splendidly with my lovely colleagues, but I wanted a change, I wanted to take new risks and get out of my comfort zone. I took the plunge and I think the lockdown accelerated things.

I had thought about Yves Rocher for a while now, a love brand with strong values. Its visionary, committed and authentic approach caught my attention. I also wanted to stay in Belgium, I’m French but I moved to Belgium during my studies, I did my first internship and started my first full-time job here. I had added value and knowledge of the Belgian and Dutch markets, so I wanted to continue down this path.

Given the situation, it was a decision that really surprised my family and friends. But at the same time, I have a go-getter and passionate side and I did all my interviews during the lockdown (from March to June if I recall correctly) and it was clearly this goal of getting the job and starting at Yves Rocher that kept me on the edge of my seat throughout the first lockdown! In the end, I accepted the job without meeting anyone in person, without ever even visiting the offices!

The second lockdown arrived soon after, and I found myself working from home. It forced me to reach out to others and build good relationships with my team, my management and HQ, as well as other managers from different countries. I’m sure that working from home can also bring people together.

Fiorella, Yves Rocher HQ: discovering a new passion

Lockdown gave me the opportunity to learn more about myself and to discover new passions. One that I’m very passionate about is watercolor, which I discovered thanks to my best friend. A sudden feeling of calm washes over me when I’m painting, and time flies. It lets me express my creativity and stay in the moment. I love being able to give my paintings to loved ones, it’s a unique gift!

I started painting in June and continue to do it regularly, as soon as I find the time or sometimes for entire days! I started by doing rough drafts: first digitally with Photoshop, then on paper by choosing my color palette. Some of my friends and family have started asking me to do paintings for their homes with a theme, for example animals or nature, I’ve been able to paint several of them as baby shower gifts (there have been a lot around me lately!), which always gives me great joy!

Shea Butter

Find out all about shea butter!

Shea butter is a highly appreciated botanical extract at Yves Rocher: discover all about its virtues and origin.

Botanical

Latin name:
Butyrospermum parkii
Common names:
Butter tree, shea tree
Family:
Sapotaceae
Origin:
Common in the African continent from Senegal to Ethiopia

Dominique Rolland

An exceptionally resistant plant

The shea tree has developed defense mechanisms to resist the long dry seasons. Its seeds, scattered at the beginning of the rainy season to increase their chances of survival, go through a form of germination called cryptoge: their exceptional lipid reserves enable them to develop a root pivot instead of seedlings like most plants. Deeply rooted in the earth, it will provide the young plant with the water it needs. When fully grown, to resist against frequent bush fires, the shea tree sheds some of its leaves during the dry season to minimize possible damage by flames and its thick, cork bark gives it a certain protection.

Origin:

The shea butter we use comes from West Africa. We get our supplies from locally committed suppliers to sustainably develop this sector. The shea tree is considered sacred and only women can pick and work its fruit. This unique, traditional know-how is passed on from generation to generation. During the rainy season the women pick the ripe fruit, blown off trees by the wind, from the forest floor. Back in the village, they remove the pulp from the fruit, boiled its pits, sundried then crushed them to extract its nuts. They carefully washed, dried and stored them. These are important moments in the life of the village.

Our extract

Lipids exist naturally in skin and their role is essential. As a result of age or the effects of certain environmental factors, their production can decrease. With fewer lipids, skin is more sensitive to external aggressions. It becomes dry, rough, dull, sometimes scaly and very uncomfortable.

African women’s beauty secret, shea butter developed from a traditional know-how, is well known for its exceptional nutritive and reparative properties. To help the economic growth of its partner, Yves Rocher has financed a 5000m2 shea butter transformation plant in Bougouni. The women bring the nuts to the transformation plant where they are crushed, roasted and ground up. The resulting mixture is cooked and submerged in boiling water which when filtered is raw shea butter. In Europe, its color and odor are removed using steam, and it then acquires the desired cosmetic qualities.

Dominique Rolland

Shea butter can be found in which products?

In our Repair Body Care line, shea butter, thanks to its particularly high content of unsaponifiable compounds, plays a role in softening nourishing and repairing* dry skin. 

To repair extra dry skin, to reveal infinitely more beautiful, soft and comfortable skin, we suggest using formulas enriched with shea butter. From lip balm to lotion to scrub, you’ll find everything you need for a complete and extremely nourishing routine!

Forget resolutions… choose your “Word of the Year”!

Out with New Year's resolutions, in with a word that will guide your year.

Make this year all about positivity when you focus on your own special word to guide your year.

Why New Year’s resolutions are so... well, last year!

The long-held tradition is to set your resolutions for the new year in January. However, while such goals are accompanied by the best of intentions, they often set us up for failure. Instead, more and more people are choosing a word to guide their year. Let the word become a type of mantra for you. It can then direct your daily actions, allowing you to become a better version of yourself. This method has been proven to bring the best, most long-lasting results. Most importantly, it can bring about a happier, more satisfied you!

So how do you choose your word of the year? If you’ve never done it before, no worries, we'll help you.

First, instead of trying to plan for a perfect future, reflect on the year gone by. Grab a notebook and let’s begin!

Read on for helpful tips to find a word that best suits you and your goals...

How to discover your word:

  1. Ask yourself: what did last year teach me? Reflect on both the positive and negative that you can take away from last year. For example: What can I use more of in my life? What can I use less of?
  2. List 3 emotions that prevent you from moving forward in key areas of your life. Which emotions could replace them? Example: Gratitude could replace envy, Abundance could replace neediness. Still need help? Look to positive emotions like love, serenity, forgiveness, joy, hope, etc...
  3. Who inspires you... and why?  We are inspired by people with characteristics we admire. If the people you admire display persistence, determination or optimism, it’s likely you may benefit from these traits as well.
  4. How do you want to take care of yourself this year?  Self-care is powerful. It brings about change in all areas of our lives!

Answering these questions should help you clarify what you want for this coming year. Is there a word or theme that keeps coming up? When you find the word that will help you work towards your goal, let it become your mantra.

Use your word every day!

Allow your word to be your focus. Let it act as a guide for you in critical areas of your life: health, work, relationships.

Let your word prepare you to successfully take on new projects and opportunities.

In everyday situations, ask yourself how will your word affect your actions and decisions.

For example, the word “daring” will allow you to be more courageous, “discovery” to seek out the new and “persistence” to not give up.

Here's to a great 2021!

Don’t hesitate to share your word with us below. Declaring it will help put you on the path to success!

Coppery Holiday Look

Discover our tutorial to warm up your holiday look with a rich, copper glow!

Follow our simple step-by-step tutorial to warm up your holiday look with a rich, copper glow.

Step 1: A Radiant Complexion

For this holiday look, focus on highlighting and perfecting your complexion. Apply a small amount ofLe Radieux Foundation. In addition to its anti-pollution benefits, it illuminates as it helps to even out your complexion. Choose the foundation shade that best suits your skin tone. To do this, look at the veins on the inside of your wrist. Blue veins mean a beige shade is best; purple veins call for a pinkish shade and, if they appear green, go for a golden shade.

To add definition and reflect light, apply a touch of our Highlighter Stick to raised points on your face: above cheekbones, over the arches of your eyebrows and the cupid's bow or V of your top lip. It’s that simple!

New year, renewed skin

Make a habit of exfoliation/hydration!

Getting radiant, baby-soft skin is easy when you use our exfoliate and hydrate combination!

Scrub your way to softer skin

Your body needs to be regularly exfoliated, just like your face. Exfoliating removes dead skin cells and impurities, thanks to small scrubbing particles in your scrub. Regular exfoliation will leave skin refreshed and renewed with softness and hydration.

You should exfoliate once or twice weekly. Do it in the shower on damp skin or, for a more powerful effect, apply scrub to dry skin before showering. Use a small amount of scrub and apply in a circular motion, starting at your feet and working upwards. This helps boost circulation. Then rinse thoroughly with tepid to warm water. Hot water can dry your skin, especially during winter months.

A scrub for every skin care need

As your skin's needs change with the seasons, we’ve created a collection of 3 scrubs to meet different requirements.

Keep your skin soft in Fall and Winter with our gentle Shea Rich Body Scrub.

Enriched with Shea butter and shells, this ultra-rich exfoliating cream removes dead cells, without drying skin. Leaves you soft, silky and extra-comfy after your shower!

To refresh and purify your skin for Spring, choose our Botanical Charcoal Detox Body Scrub. Rich in botanical charcoal, it eliminates impurities caused by the pollution of modern living. This purifying scrub is also a perfect post-workout choice to unclog pores after a good sweat.

And for Summer? Nothing beats intense exfoliation! Smooth away roughness and regenerate your skin. Choose our Apricot Botanical Body Scrub! Rich in apricot stone powder, this ultra-creamy exfoliating scrub eliminates dead cells while polishing your skin smooth.

Feel free to alternate these scrubs based on your skin’s needs, the season and your activity. It’s a natural choice! They all contain more than 98% ingredients of natural origin and 100% plant-based exfoliating particles.

After exfoliation, preserve the softness

As we mentioned, the winning formula for soft, smooth skin is exfoliation and hydration. The all-important step of exfoliation preps skin for hydration, as it removes dead skin to reveal refreshed and renewed skin. Skin that can better absorb and benefit from your moisturizing lotion.

Why not prolong spa-worthy skin pleasure? Follow our Shea Rich Body Scrub with our nourishing Repair Lotion Extra Dry Skin or our lush Repair Balm for intense relief. Your skin will be velvety-smooth and intensely nourished.

Sensitive skin? After exfoliation, opt for our fragrance-free Soothing Body Lotion – Sensitive Skin.. Enriched with organic Witch Hazel, it instantly and lastingly moisturizes, soothing tightness and protecting the skin barrier.

My antipollution routine

Everything you need to detoxify your hair and skin!

Our constant exposure to pollution has a negative impact on our skin and hair. Here are our best tips and tricks for a great detox treatment!

Aphloia répare et protège Yves Rocher

Our antipollution allies

Did you know that pollution doesn't just include microparticles? It also includes tobacco smoke, rain, dust and exhaust fumes! All these factors weaken our hair and skin. To tackle this problem, our Botanical Beauty experts have selected two plants perfect for the ultimate detox: Aphloia and Moringa.

Native to Madagascar, the Aphloia plant is known for its protective and restorative abilities. Our other star extract is Moringa seeds, which are rich in proteins and have purifying properties.

Peau éclatante de jour Yves Rocher

For radiant skin all day...

Adopting an Aphloia-based detoxifying routine is the best solution to limit the harmful effects that pollution can have on skin.

1/ Wash your face with lukewarm water and our Daily Exfoliating Cleanser to get rid of any impurities or traces of pollution on your skin.
2/ You're just starting your day, so it's important to moisturize your skin.  First apply a few drops of the Double Action Essence, then the Restructuring Day Cream. Your skin is instantly detoxified*, your complexion radiant, and your wrinkles appear reduced** after 1 month.
3/ The last step is foundation, apply Le Radieux foundation at the end of your routine! Le Radieux also has antipollution benefits for a fresh, even and radiant complexion that lasts for 10 hours

*Satisfaction test conducted on 122 women for 28 days
**Clinical study conducted on 20 women. Immediate 12.6% average reduction in amount of wrinkles.
 

Soins de nuit Yves Rocher

...And all night!

Your day is over, it's now time for your night time routine to cleanse and refresh your skin before bed.

If you’re wearing waterproof makeup, we suggest using an oil makeup remover rather than a classic one. Preferably an oil makeup remover that will eliminate all traces of makeup and pollution without leaving an oily film on your skin. If it's not waterproof, then opt for theCleansing Micellar Gel, it’ll get the job done by removing any impurities from your skin.

Your skin easily absorbs products at night and so it’s the ideal time to apply your skin care. To get perfectly moisturized, plumped and rested skin by morning, apply a small amount of the Sleeping Care combined with the Double Action Essence every night.

To take these routines to another level, don't forget to apply the Detoxifying Flash Mask twice a week to get an even brighter complexion!

Avoir les cheveux en bonne santé Yves Rocher

Healthy hair!

1/ To detoxify your hair, start by getting rid of residues left by pollution by using the Detox Micellar Shampoo

2/ Then apply the Curls Conditioner to detangle and protect your hair from polluting particles

3/ To intensify the result, finish by rinsing your hair with the Rinsing Vinegar. It will also remove limescale!

You also need to exfoliate your scalp once or twice a week. How? Try our Oxygenating Scrubbefore you shampoo your hair. Your scalp will be detoxified, rid of any impurities and won’t become greasy as quickly.

Now you have all the tips to protect your skin and hair from pollution.
