The Power of Vanilla Planifolia

At the heart of Sublimage is Vanilla Planifolia, a flower that lives between shadow and light, growing in darkness and blooming at dawn. CHANEL builds a rejuvenating skincare ritual around this duality.

Through an extraction process developed by CHANEL Research, Vanilla Planifolia becomes polyfractioned Vanilla Planifolia. By isolating and concentrating selected molecules, CHANEL obtains an ingredient it describes as 40 times more concentrated in effective molecules than the raw plant material, created to help support the skin’s rejuvenation mechanisms and a more radiant-looking complexion.

This polyfractioned Vanilla Planifolia runs through the entire Sublimage ritual, infusing each formula so that every step contributes to the same rejuvenating objective while delivering a specific effect on the skin’s appearance.

An Ultra-Sensorial Skincare Experience

Sublimage is presented as an ultra-sensorial skincare experience. Textures, from fresh and milky to enveloping and rich, are crafted to be pleasurable to apply while leaving a refined finish.

By combining the performance of polyfractioned Vanilla Planifolia with these textures, the ritual becomes a complete experience that addresses visible signs of ageing and elevates daily skincare.

The Four-Step Sublimage Ritual

Step 1 – Prepare with La Lotion

The ritual begins with La Lotion, applied after cleansing. Its fresh, milky texture helps soothe and hydrate while preparing the skin for the formulas that follow.

Step 2 – Redefine with Le Sérum

Le Sérum is a velvety formula that melts into the skin and is enriched with a complex that helps support collagen, a component associated with a redefined-looking complexion.

Step 3 – Smooth with La Crème

La Crème occupies the central role. Available in three textures, from lightweight to rich, it allows the wearer to choose the finish that best suits their preferences while contributing to a smoother-looking surface.

Step 4 – Illuminate with La Crème Yeux

The ritual concludes with La Crème Yeux, an eye cream dedicated to the delicate eye contour, formulated to smooth, de-puff and illuminate so that the area appears enhanced and rested.
