Product details

A closer look.

Some skin needs more water. Other skin needs to be reconditioned. Biologique Recherche Crème Masque Vernix VG is a rich protective and reconditioning care created for skin that feels depleted, stressed or no longer able to maintain comfort as well as it once did. It is inspired by vernix caseosa, the protective film made of water, lipids and proteins that covers the skin before birth. The formula does not contain human vernix: it recreates that idea with lipids such as Ceramide NG, Squalane, Lecithin and plant sterols, proteins, a peptide, botanical oils and antioxidant ingredients to help nourish the epidermis and reinforce its natural protective environment. The texture forms a comforting veil over the complexion, helping skin feel softer, more supple and better protected against dryness and everyday external stress. Its approach is not simply to add more hydration, but to nourish, recondition and protect. What makes it especially unique is its versatility: use it as your cream when the skin needs ongoing support, or as an intensive mask when the skin needs more.

Why you’ll love it.

We think of Crème Masque Vernix VG when a client describes something slightly different from dry skin: nothing seems nourishing enough, their barrier feels off, or they keep adding hydration and are still uncomfortable. It feels like giving the skin a protective coat and permission to recover. We especially love it in colder months, after travel, or whenever the routine itself has become a little too ambitious. Sometimes the smartest thing you can give the skin is support, not another active.

Pairs well with.

A rich, comforting veil for depleted skin.

A rich cream-mask that forms a comforting, cushioning veil over the complexion. As a cream it is massaged in until absorbed; as a mask the excess is gently removed with a damp cotton pad.

When skin feels depleted, simplify: cleanse gently, use the Lotion P50 selected for your Skin Instant only if your skin comfortably tolerates it, apply only the serums your skin actually needs, then finish with Crème Masque Vernix VG. For very dry or undernourished skin, Colostrum VG makes a cohesive serum step before it. Add sunscreen in the morning.

Your questions, answered.

Is Crème Masque Vernix VG a moisturizer or a mask?

Both. It can be used morning and/or evening as a cream, or applied as a thin 15 to 20 minute intensive mask.

Does it contain human vernix?

No. The current INCI does not list human vernix. The product is inspired by its composition and protective function.

Do I rinse it off completely after the mask?

No aggressive rinsing is required. Gently remove the excess with a damp cotton pad after 15 to 20 minutes.

Can I leave it on overnight?

The official mask directions specify 15 to 20 minutes. For longer or overnight use, use it according to its cream application method.

What is the difference with Masque Visolastine+?

Masque Visolastine+ is primarily a long-lasting hydration mask for dehydrated Skin Instants. Crème Masque Vernix VG is richer and focused on protection, lipid support and reconditioning depleted skin.

Does it contain ceramides or wheat?

Yes to both. The current formula contains Ceramide NG, as well as Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein and Hydrolyzed Barley Protein. If you have a known allergy or sensitivity, contact us at info@loshen.ca before purchasing.

It’s my second jar, lasted me almost a year

It’s my second jar, lasted me almost a year. Perfect for colder seasons, calms skin right away, locks in other creams. I use it overnight or if especially dry and irritated can do during the day or locally or irritated or dry areas.

Creme masque Vernix

I didn't notice a significant improvement in my skin hydration. I have been using it for two weeks only at night. Maybe I need to give it more time. I like the texture of the cream.

This cream is so moisturizing and works great over the retin-a I wear at night, keeps my skin smooth.

Rich texture cream mask

Definitely an effective emollient. Prefer using it at night due to the thickness and shininess. Haven't tried the VG version though

Love this product!

I love using this product overnight when my skin needs some deep moisturizing — after a few days my skin gets back to being hydrated again!

Amazing product and service

Like others, I used this as a cream and not a mask. It was phenomenal. It had a slightly more medicinal smell than other BR creams, and I wasn't mad about that because I prefer that over the famous BR funk/fishiness. The glow I got from this was out of this world. It's been a minute since I repurchased this, but my skin is feeling irritated and scaly right now from using a lesser product -- so I'm back and will be repurchasing! This product packs it all, and right now I need it all! On top of everything else, I had a packaging issue with this product and Loshen acted fast to make it right!

Skin Rebirth

I use a ton of BR products and this one is one of the best. I repurchase this one over and over as it makes my skin feel nourished, dewy, and like new. Even though it says masque I use it as a moisturizer rather than a masque.

Wonderful product

I have used this product before and it is still one of my favourites. It leaves the skin dewy and soft, like having a mini facial every evening! I use it at night time to rejuvenate.

Good as a night cream

I use it at night and the next day my skin is refreshed and often dewy. I found that I have to use it every 2nd night because if used every night, I would start to get red pots/break-out. But once you find the right balance for your skin, the results are great.

Saving grace

This product is absolutely amazing. It renews my skin and helps me with dryness and itchiness. I have mild rosacea and find this works well for me. Sarah had provided me a few samples to try given how sensitive my skin is. I’d ask her if this would be suited well for your skin first but I’ve absolutely loved it!

A Must!

Whatever else I try I’m never without this product. On its own, or layered over other BR Moisturizers it’s one of the best products in their line. I love to mix it with my day or night moisturizers in the winter.

Glow getter

A godsend during Canadian winters. This creme masque is highly moisturizing, and helps to protect my skin from external aggressors while reinforcing its natural internal barrier. The glow from this creme has brought me countless compliments, too!

Worth the wait.
