Developed by Guerlain Research, the age-defying skincare products in the Abeille Royale range are composed of active ingredients with exceptional repairing properties derived from bee products*, especially honey from Ouessant Island in France. The formulas of the two new Day Creams and the new Night Cream have been revised to offer even greater effectiveness and sensory pleasure.
The result: The skin’s appearance is instantly and lastingly transformed and the visible signs of skin ageing minimised, to even more precisely meet women’s expectations in terms of age-defying skincare.
The DAY CREAM and RICH DAY CREAM: Two creams, two textures, two innovative formulas.
Firming – Wrinkle Minimising – Radiance
An innovative technology: At the heart of the new Abeille Royale Day Creams lies a Repairing Concentrate with a comprehensive action that works on all the key levels of the skin to improve its radiance and the quality of its texture. It originates from the Guerlain Research laboratories’ discovery that Ouessant honey helped boost the production of genes coding for two proteins that play a role in forming the skin’s barrier (stimulation of Cornifin gene expression by 50% and Elafin gene expression by 27% by keratinocytes in culture)*.
It incorporates two types of hyaluronic acid:
• One of high molecular weight that acts rapidly on the surface, hydrates and smooths the skin, minimising wrinkles and fine lines.
• The other of low molecular weight that passes through the skin’s mesh to:
– boost the proliferation of epidermal* cells to reduce surface imperfections
– boost collagen and fibroblast synthesis in the dermis*
Sensory textures
The new Day Cream texture is a perfect balance between richness and lightness. The texture’s comforting softness can instantly be felt, leaving skin radiant and comfortable. The Rich Day Cream has an utterly delectable texture as rich as a balm. Enriched with beeswax butter, derived entirely from natural sources, the formula gently glides over the skin, which instantly appears smoother. A gourmet pleasure enhanced even further by its honey colour. On application, this nectar’s slightly fresh, sunkissed fragrance holds an enchanting appeal. Honeyed notes of beeswax absolute fuse with the more floral aromas of mimosa and broom, blending with the scent of fresh herbs…

… Which honeys?
Originally, Ouessant honey…
On the island of Ouessant(1), located 18 km off the Brittany coast and listed as a nature reserve by UNESCO, forages a black bee (Apis mellifera mellifera) endemic to the island that produces a honey of exceptional purity due to its genetic properties and the exceptional quality of the Ouessant ecosystem, free from any pollution or intensive farming. This honey with a slightly salty taste boasts an exceptionally high content in minerals and trace elements (sodium, magnesium, calcium, selenium, silicon) as well as amino acids. These are all elements that are particularly active in the skin, both in the connective tissue and also in collagen and elastin fibre synthesis. Rare and pure Ouessant honey is at the heart of Abeille Royale Repairing Concentrate. This concentrate boosts self-repair at every key level of the skin for instant and lasting age-defying effectiveness(2).
… and exclusive Sologne royal jelly
Another key ingredient in the concentrate is incorporated into the different formulas: Guerlain’s exclusive Sologne royal jelly. It nourishes skin to leave it firmer and more toned.
