Lotion MC110

PLUMPING + RENEWING BEAUTY BOOSTER

Biologique Recherche Lotion MC110 N°1 is an intensive plumping and renewing facial lotion designed to refine skin texture while visibly smoothing fine lines and wrinkles.

Unlike a traditional hydrating toner, MC110 N°1 combines chemical exfoliation with a targeted plumping action. It helps remove accumulated surface cells, smooth irregular-looking texture and improve visible radiance while leaving the skin looking fuller, softer and more refined.

Facial contours appear more defined, fine lines look plumped and the complexion appears fresher and smoother.

Lotion MC110 N°1 is designed to be used as an intensive 10-day treatment, making it less of an everyday toner and more of a targeted Biologique Recherche beauty booster.

Skin Instant:

Recommended by Biologique Recherche for thin-to-normal Skin Instants.

Particularly interesting for skin experiencing:

• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Uneven-looking texture
• Reduced radiance
• Skin that appears less smooth
• Early changes in plumpness
• Surface irregularities
• Facial contours that appear less defined
• A complexion that could benefit from a short intensive renewal treatment

Benefits:

• Gently exfoliates accumulated surface cells
• Helps support regular skin renewal
• Visibly smooths fine lines and wrinkles
• Helps plump the appearance of the skin
• Refines uneven-looking skin texture
• Improves visible radiance
• Helps facial contours appear more defined
• Supports softer, smoother-looking skin
• Provides an intensive treatment beyond everyday exfoliation

What Makes Lotion MC110 Different?

The easiest mistake is to think of Lotion MC110 as simply “another P50.”

It isn't.

Biologique Recherche describes MC110 N°1 as a beauty booster combining three actions:

• Exfoliating
• Renewing
• Plumping

Its exfoliating acids help encourage controlled removal of accumulated surface cells, creating a smoother-looking epidermis.

But the goal isn't exfoliation for exfoliation's sake.

The treatment is designed to improve the visible appearance of:

• Fine lines
• Wrinkles
• Texture
• Plumpness
• Facial contours
• Radiance

Think of MC110 N°1 as an intensive skin-renewal course with a visible plumping effect.

Lotion MC110 vs. Lotion P50

• This is probably the most important question about MC110.
• Both products exfoliate, but their roles within the Biologique Recherche methodology are different.
• Lotion P50 is part of the regular Initialization Stage and is selected according to your Skin Instant.
• Its role centres around ongoing exfoliation, purification and rebalancing.
• Lotion MC110 N°1 is an intensive beauty booster used as a 10-day treatment course.

Its focus is:

• Exfoliation
• Skin renewal
• Visible plumping
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Texture refinement

In the simplest terms:

• Lotion P50 = ongoing skin preparation + rebalancing
• Lotion MC110 N°1 = intensive renewal + plumping treatment

Because both formulas are active exfoliating products, more is not automatically better.

If you are using Lotion P50 and want to introduce MC110 N°1, we recommend confirming how the two should fit together for your current Skin Instant.

Why Does Exfoliation Make Skin Look Smoother?

The epidermis is constantly renewing itself.

As new cells form below, older cells migrate toward the surface and are eventually shed.

When surface cells accumulate unevenly, the complexion can appear:

• Rough
• Dull
• Less refined
• More visibly lined

Chemical exfoliation helps encourage controlled desquamation — the shedding of those accumulated surface cells.

Biologique Recherche explains that this process helps support regular skin renewal and creates a smoother surface, which can make wrinkles and fine lines appear less pronounced.

This is part of what gives MC110 N°1 its characteristic combination of smoothing + plumping + radiance.

How to Use:

1. Use Lotion MC110 N°1 as a 10-day intensive treatment course.
2. Generously saturate a cotton pad with the lotion.
3. Apply over the face, neck and décolleté using gentle upward dabbing movements.
4. Do not aggressively rub or scrub the skin.

• Use cautiously around the eye contour.
• In case of contact with the eyes, rinse thoroughly with clean water.
• Avoid direct sun exposure immediately after application.
• Do not apply to scratched, irritated or compromised skin.
• Do not use on children under 3 years of age.
• For external use only.

Loshen & Crem’s Recommendation:

MC110 N°1 is one of those Biologique Recherche products that we think makes the most sense when your routine feels good — but your skin seems to have reached a plateau.

We think about it when someone tells us:

• “My skin looks good, but the texture could be smoother.”
• “My forehead lines are becoming more noticeable.”
• “I want more plumpness without simply adding another serum.”
• “My complexion feels a little flat.”
• “I already use P50. What can I do when I want something more intensive?”

That's where MC110 becomes interesting.

It isn't designed to replace every step in your routine.

It is a short, focused treatment course intended to give the skin a more intensive exfoliating and plumping reset.

And because this product is active, we don't believe stronger application creates stronger results.

• No aggressive rubbing.
• No adding five other exfoliants because you're feeling ambitious.
• Use it intentionally.

MC110 N°1 vs. Elastine

Both can be considered when fine lines are visible, but their roles are very different.

Choose MC110 N°1 when your concerns include:

• Uneven texture
• Fine lines
• Dullness
• A need for exfoliation
• A short intensive plumping treatment

Choose Elastine when your primary concerns are:

• Expression lines
• Wrinkles
• Reduced elasticity
• A need for ongoing targeted serum support

Think:

• MC110 N°1 → exfoliation + renewal + plumping
• Elastine → elasticity + wrinkle smoothing

One is an intensive lotion treatment.

The other is a targeted serum.

MC110 N°1 vs. Collagène Originel

These can both create a visibly plumper-looking complexion, but again, they get there differently.

MC110 N°1 focuses on:

• Surface renewal
• Texture
• Fine lines
• Plumping
• Radiance

Collagène Originel focuses more specifically on:

• Wrinkles
• Loss of density
• Structural support
• Skin plumpness
• A thinner-looking complexion

Think:

• MC110 N°1 → intensive exfoliation + surface plumping
• Collagène Originel → density + structure + ongoing plumping serum

Ingredients:

• Niacinamide: Vitamin B3 helps support overall skin quality and visible radiance.
• Lactic Acid: An alpha-hydroxy acid that helps encourage exfoliation and smoother-looking skin.
• Salicylic Acid: A beta-hydroxy acid incorporated into the formula's exfoliating complex.
• Vinegar (Acetum): A characteristic Biologique Recherche ingredient that contributes to the lotion's exfoliating and rebalancing profile.
• Equisetum Arvense Extract: Horsetail botanical extract included within the targeted skin-conditioning complex.
• Mucor Miehei Extract: An enzymatic ingredient incorporated into the renewing formulation.
• Yeast Extract: Included within the formula's skin-conditioning and plumping complex.
• Arctium Lappa Root Extract: Burdock root extract included in the botanical complex.
• Juglans Regia (Walnut) Seed Extract: Walnut seed extract incorporated into the targeted formulation.
• Glycerin & Sodium Lactate: Help support hydration and skin comfort alongside the exfoliating ingredients.
• Phytic Acid: Included within the multi-acid renewing complex.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Biologique Recherche Lotion MC110 N°1?

Lotion MC110 N°1 is an exfoliating, renewing and plumping beauty booster from Biologique Recherche.

It is designed to visibly smooth fine lines and wrinkles, refine uneven skin texture, improve radiance and leave the complexion looking more plumped.

Who is Lotion MC110 N°1 for?

Biologique Recherche currently recommends Lotion MC110 N°1 for thin-to-normal Skin Instants.

Older descriptions associating MC110 with thick or dull skin generally refer to the historical MC110 N°2 positioning rather than the current N°1 retail product.

Is Lotion MC110 N°1 for thick skin?

Not according to Biologique Recherche's current recommendation.

The current N°1 formula is recommended for thin-to-normal Skin Instants.

Historically, MC110 N°2 was the version associated with thicker and more devitalized Skin Instants.

What does Lotion MC110 N°1 do?

Its three primary actions are:

• Exfoliating
• Renewing
• Plumping

It helps smooth irregular-looking texture, soften the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, improve radiance and make facial contours appear more defined.

Is MC110 the same as Lotion P50?

No.

Lotion P50 is generally incorporated as an ongoing balancing and exfoliating step within the Biologique Recherche methodology.

MC110 N°1 is an intensive 10-day beauty booster focused on exfoliation, renewal and visible plumping.

Do I use MC110 before or after Lotion P50?

Biologique Recherche's current consumer instructions do not provide one universal P50 + MC110 layering sequence.

Because both are active exfoliating lotions, we recommend having the combination personalized rather than assuming everyone should layer both products every day.

Can I use MC110 every day?

Biologique Recherche currently recommends it as a 10-day intensive treatment course.

That is different from positioning it as an indefinite daily toner.

How long should I use Lotion MC110?

The current Biologique Recherche instructions specify a 10-day course.

Afterward, your Skin Instant should be reassessed before automatically continuing.

Does Lotion MC110 exfoliate?

Yes.

Biologique Recherche officially categorizes MC110 N°1 as exfoliating, renewing and plumping.

It contains several exfoliating ingredients, including Lactic Acid, Salicylic Acid, Citric Acid and Phytic Acid.

Does Lotion MC110 contain salicylic acid?

Yes.

Salicylic Acid is part of the current official formula.

Does MC110 help wrinkles?

Biologique Recherche specifically states that fine lines and wrinkles appear smoother following use.

Its combination of exfoliating and plumping actions is what distinguishes it from a simple acid toner.

Does MC110 plump skin?

Yes.

Plumping is one of Biologique Recherche's three primary current actions for Lotion MC110 N°1.

Can MC110 replace a serum?

No.

MC110 N°1 is an intensive exfoliating and plumping lotion treatment.

It does not replace the targeted functions of your serums or moisturizer.

Can sensitive skin use MC110?

The current product is recommended for thin-to-normal Skin Instants, but that does not automatically mean every reactive or compromised Skin Instant should use it.

Because MC110 contains multiple exfoliating ingredients, we strongly recommend professional guidance if sensitivity, redness or barrier impairment are current concerns.

Can I use MC110 around the eyes?

Biologique Recherche advises using it with caution around the eye contour and avoiding direct eye contact.

If the product enters the eyes, rinse thoroughly with clean water.

Can I use MC110 on irritated skin?

No.

Biologique Recherche specifically advises against applying it to scratched or irritated skin.

Do I need sunscreen while using MC110?

Daily sun protection is always important, and Biologique Recherche specifically advises avoiding direct sun exposure immediately after applying Lotion MC110 N°1.

Is Lotion MC110 a professional-only product?

Lotion MC110 has a strong history within Biologique Recherche's professional methodology, but the current N°1 product is officially available for retail purchase and home use.

We would therefore describe it as a professional-inspired beauty booster rather than claiming it is the “only professional product available for home use.”

When should I use Lotion MC110 in my routine?

Because it is an intensive exfoliating treatment and may be used alongside other active Biologique Recherche lotions, we recommend personalizing its placement according to your existing routine.

The current manufacturer instructions focus on using it as a 10-day course rather than prescribing the exact same layering routine for every client.

Where can I buy Biologique Recherche Lotion MC110 N°1?

Biologique Recherche Lotion MC110 N°1 is available from Loshen & Crem online and at our Edmonton, Alberta boutique.

Our skin experts can also help determine whether MC110 N°1 is appropriate for your current Skin Instant and how to incorporate it safely alongside Lotion P50 and your existing Biologique Recherche routine.
