HONEY Please

I tried the 60-minute facial treatment using everything from Guerlain's beloved Abeille Royale line.

With its nature-inspired innovations, Guerlain has brought to life a myriad of beautiful skincare, makeup and fragrance lines. My first introduction to the House was through none other than the Abeille Royale a couple years ago — right when I began noticing my skin could use some extra “oomph” beyond the basics. These days, there’s a name for that: prejuvenation.

Intrigued by the parallels between wound healing processes and skin repair mechanisms, Guerlain Research has spent years developing and perfecting the Abeille Royale line. It harnesses the natural reparative powers of honey and royal jelly with an extensive ritual encompassing double cleansing, exfoliation, moisturising and targeted treatments. Each of them has a unique sensorial texture — from dewy to delightfully rich — for all skin types looking to boost resilience and vitality. Unlike heavy formulas that can overwhelm sensitive or combination to oily skin, they are designed to be absorbed quickly and deeply to address early collagen and hydration loss. With time and consistency, the skin naturally becomes firm, smooth, plump and luminous.
