N°1 DE CHANEL — a new skincare collection centred around the camellia and a return to essentials

CHANEL addresses a universal skincare concern of ageing and maintaining healthy skin with a completely new and innovative line of beauty — N°1 de CHANEL.

Its premise is about returning to the basic essentials of skincare and has a formula that revolves around the camellia, Gabrielle Chanel’s emblematic flower.

CHANEL’s camellia is unlike any other, grown in the ground in the Gaujacq open sky laboratory located in the South-West of France. And this botanical conservatory garden is dedicated to plant conservation, and contains 2,000 camellia varieties collected worldwide.

With their expertise and years of research, CHANEL discovered that the red camellia flower extract, from “The Czar” variety of Camellia japonica has remarkable properties, with water nor cold having the slightest effect on its delicate petals. And from the heart of its petals, the concentration of a powerful molecule — protocatechuic acid — helps protect the skin’s vitality by targeting and addressing the first stage of skin ageing (such as wrinkles and fine lines, dull skin, skin losing its “bounce” and elasticity, larger and open pores, and lack of comfort).

This key ingredient is formulated into the entire N°1 de CHANEL line, which includes skincare, makeup and a fragrance mist. The idea with these three pillars is to soothe both the skin and mind, resulting in a lovely, sensorial feel during and after application.
