UV ESSENTIEL offers comprehensive protection thanks to the benefits of a perfected treatment. It protects the skin from UV rays, pollution, and oxidation. Throughout the year, even on cloudy days, UV rays continuously damage the skin, accelerating its aging.

The SPF 50 index and the "skin strengthening" complex, based on ginger extract from CHANEL's open-air laboratory in Madagascar and Tahitian gardenia extract, protect against UV rays and boost the skin's natural defenses. Its filters act as a shield against UV rays and prevent premature photoaging. Its unique texture combines the lightness of a gel with the comfort of a cream, leaving a delicate veil on the skin.

Protected, strengthened and hydrated, the skin is radiant.
