The Serum Resetting & Transformative_ Skin balancing serum

With the help of neuroscience, NEURAÉ no longer treats the skin as a mere protective covering, but as a sensory organ that's connected to our emotions. The harmonie Resetting & Transformative Serum uses active ingredients that regulate skin messengers (such as cortisol*, which is associated with negative emotions) to improve the skin's appearance, acting on the visible signs of stress or fatigue on the face. Various neuroscientific methodologies were used to ensure the serum's effectiveness.

Yes, the Resetting & Transformative Serum's effectiveness in combating biological stress has been scientifically proven. Ex vivo tests have shown a 32%* reduction in skin cortisol levels following application. By reducing signs of stress on the skin, the serum helps to soothe the skin and prevent premature ageing caused by lifestyle factors.

A neuro-active serum like NEURAÉ's also addresses one of the root causes of skin imbalances that is often overlooked: emotional stress. In addition to ‘traditional' active ingredients – moisturisers, etc. – it contains neuro-active ingredients capable of regulating the effects of our emotions at the skin level. A conventional serum, on the other hand, only targets specific skin concerns directly (hydration, wrinkles, dark spots).

Yes, the harmonie Resetting & Transformative Serum is perfectly suited to sensitive skin. It prevents the skin from drying out, reduces redness and strengthens the skin barrier, thereby helping to protect sensitive skin against external aggressors and emotional stress. This is made possible by the patent-pending complex of neuro-active ingredients at the heart of its formula. It also contains a moisturising sugar complex that targets neurogenic inflammation to help soothe the skin, as well as a concentrated Centella asiatica extract that promotes skin regeneration.

Yes, the harmonie Resetting & Transformative Serum has been specifically formulated for skin that's subjected to chronic stress caused by the hectic nature of daily life. By regulating the skin's stress signals – for example, by reducing skin cortisol levels* (which are associated with negative emotions and contribute to skin ageing) – it reduces redness and enhances the radiance of your complexion, making your skin appear soothed.

Absolutely. NEURAÉ is backed by rigorous scientific testing. The benefits of the harmonie Resetting & Transformative Serum have been tested at three levels as part of a series of particularly rigorous procedures. 

At the cell level: The effectivness of our neuro-active complex was tested over a 21-day period using a 3D model of a reconstructed epidermis and sensory neurons, demonstrating its effect on the skin's 𝛃-endorphin receptors and stress messengers (CGRP). 

At the skin level: The harmonie Serum was tested in accordance with rigorous scientific procedure as part of a clinical study involving a panel of 19 women aged between 29 and 45 with all skin types, including sensitive skin, who used the harmonie Serum morning and evening for two months. 

At the emotional level: the emotional effects of the harmonie Serum were tested by an independent institute on a panel of 55 people (23 women and 22 men, aged between 25 and 45) using a rigorous methodology covering physiological (heart rate), behavioural (facial analysis) and psychological (implicit/unconscious and explicit/conscious measurements) aspects. Prior to this, the neuro-fragrance of the harmonie Serum was validated through electroencephalogram (EEG) measurements and psychometric tests. These studies confirmed that fragrance stimulates areas of the brain associated with relaxation and well-being.

From the very first application, the harmonie Resetting & Transformative Serum boosts hydration by 43%***** and acts as a reset for the skin and the mind for 74% of panellists**. Redness is reduced in 79%** of panelists. 84%** say that, when more relaxed, their skin appears de-stressed, relaxed and refreshed, while 95%** say that using the harmonie serum enhances their sense of well-being. 95%** of panellists notice a fresher complexion day after day when using the serum.

After a month of use, user trials have shown significant results: their skin is more resilient to stress and better able to restore its natural balance. Skin is more beautiful, supple and toned. Volunteers notice that their facial features look 19%*** more relaxed and their complexion appears 33%*** fresher. The skin barrier is preserved.

Apply the harmonie Resetting & Transformative Serum morning and evening to cleansed skin, just before applying your day or night cream. The ideal NEUR|AÉ routine recommends following the serum with either the Bliss & Radiance Joie Emulsion, the Energising and Firming Énergie Cream, or the Relaxing & Smoothing Sérénité Balm. The harmonie Resetting & Transformative Serum can be used after applying the harmonie Priming and Plumping Lotion and/or the Nourishing and Restorative harmonie Oil. The serum's light texture, which blends perfectly with the skin, ideally prepares it for further skincare products. 

Yes, and with an innovative approach. In addition to the ‘traditional' approach to skincare, the NEUR|AÉ transformative serum also targets the ‘emotional ageing' of the skin. Chronic stress releases cortisol, which can have harmful effects on the skin by breaking down collagen and elastin. The harmonie Resetting & Transformative Serum reduces skin cortisol levels by 32%*, minimises redness and strengthens the skin barrier. This effect is made possible by the complex of naturally derived neuro-active ingredients at the heart of its formula: Alpine skullcap (Scutellaria alpina), “the flower of well-being”, Red Indigo ( Tephrosia purpurea), “the stimulating seeds”, and Eperua extract (Eperua falcata), “the tree of serenity”. These active ingredients are selected for their ability to regulate nerve signals in the skin, for example by lowering skin cortisol levels or increasing B-endorphin levels. 

The harmonie Resetting & Transformative Serum is a high-performance concentrate of active ingredients that acts independently on the skin's messengers (CGRP****, Cortisol*, Beta-endorphins****). However, for maximum effectiveness and greater comfort, it can be used in conjunction with a cream from the same brand. A cream reinforces the neuro-active ingredients in the serum and provides additional active ingredients that address the various skin concerns associated with emotional skin ageing in a customised way (dullness, the appearance of fine lines, loss of firmness, redness)
