The cream’s unique tube has an ergonomic design in perfect affinity with the hand. Inside the packaging, a retractable pocket contains and protects the formula. Just press on the roller to release the dosage of cream that sublimates the hands. On use, the pocket retracts, but the “shape memory” roller remains intact. Isolated from contact with the outside, the formula is protected from the air, like impurities, its case remains clean.

So, how does CHANEL manages to perfectly take care of the skin? May rose wax from the fields of Pegomas, CHANEL’s farm at Grasse, which is obtained at the time of the distillation of eurs.

And for maximum hydration and comfort, the formula is enriched with glycerine, hyaluronic acid and shea butter.
