Click on the products in the newsletter below, or find the links in the following text. Most importantly, treat yourself to healthy and radiant skin all summer long!
Skincare Products For Fresh Skin This Summer
Lotion P50
Healthy skin starts with exfoliation so the new cells emerge on the surface. Lotion P50 removes dead cells and impurities. It also reconditions skin with active ingredients such as A-H-A, P-H-A & BH-A, Cider Vinegar and more. Snag Lotion P50 in a travel size convenient for summer vacations, or go for the 8.4 oz bottle to keep at home.
Protection U.V.
Skin protection is essential when the summer sun rays beat down harsher than other times of the year. Protection U.V. is SPF 25, which gives you a healthy balance between tanning and skin protection. This light, 100 percent natural formula protects your skin from UVA, UVB, and infrared rays.
Serum Biosensible
If you accidentally let your tan get a little too red and are now suffering from a burn, you’ll love the soothing and repairing effects of Serum Biosensible. It restructures and reinforces the epidermis, reduces sensitivity, and provides a comforting sensation.
Reparation U.V.
Like the Serum Biosensible, Reparation U.V. is good to have around after a day of sunbathing. It calms irritation, fights free radicals and glycation, and prevents peeling.
Creme Hydravit’s
The sun is known to dry out skin quickly, so a few good moisturizing products will help keep your skin soft and fresh. Creme Hydravit’s has a long-lasting hydrating effect that protects against increased humidity, dehydration, and intense UV radiation.
Masque Visolastine
This white clay mask helps combat dehydrated skin with long-lasting moisturizing action thanks to the active hydrating and lipid-replenishing active ingredients. Masque Visolastine is like a quick 15-minute facial that leaves skin comfortable all day.
Creme Contour des Yeux Biosensible
There’s more to protecting your eyes this summer than wearing your favorite pair of Ray-Bans. Creme Contour des Yeux Biosensible soothes the sensitive skin that surrounds eyes.
Biokiss
If you’ve ever had a sunburn on your lips, you know it can be one of the most painful places to damage your skin. That’s why Biokiss protects and repairs your lips while it moisturizes using plant-based polyglycerides.
L’Eauxygénante
Have you been to Disney World on a hot summer day and felt the instantly refreshing mist from the sprayers in the line? You can feel refreshed like that without traveling to Florida with L’Eauxygénante, a mist that stimulates the epidermis and gives an instant feeling of freshness! It is a moisturizing, antioxidant, and oxygenating mist that protects and refreshes.
Lotion P50 Corps and/or Gommage P50 Corps
Both Lotion P50 Corps and Gommage P50 Corps are effective exfoliating products that can be used simultaneously. Lotion P50 Corps gets rid of dead skin cells as it balances the pH of your skin to help encourage healthy rejuvenating skin. Gommage P50 Corps is a double-exfoliating product that can be used weekly for an extra bit of love to clear your skin during the summer.
Crème R-Stria and Crème B-Stria
Now that you’ve properly exfoliated and moisturized, it’s time to target problem areas. These two products help prevent and reduce stretch marks. Crème R-Stria prevents and alleviates red stretch marks by decreasing inflammation, while Crème B-Stria reduces white stretch marks and stimulates skin repair.
Lipogen AC
Get rid of pesky cellulite by treating the cause and the visible aspects with Lipogen AC. The active ingredients in this spray drains water and toxins while it increases blood circulation. Together, these get rid of “the orange peel” effect from cellulite and pits.
Crème Anti-C
Caffeine is a substance known to help reduce cellulite. Crème Anti-C is a caffeine-rich product that can be used as often as twice a day. Apply it directly to the areas with cellulite and watch the skin firm and tighten before your eyes.
Huile Jambes Lourdes
Infuse your body with a smart blend of essential oils to help soothe tired and heavy legs. Huile Jambes Lourdes achieves this relaxing effect with lemon, cypress, sage, mint, and rosemary oils.
Crème Défatigante
If the Huile Jambes Lourdes doesn’t seem to work for you, try Crème Défatigante to help your legs feel fresh and light instantly. The active ingredients in this cream are an energizing treatment that also prevents tired legs.
Huile Bénéfique
If you want one product that can change your summer, you need Huile Bénéfique. This spray can be used on your face, body, and in your hair. It is an all-in-one nourishing spray made with essential oils that enhance your tan, make your skin softer, and leave your hair glossy. It can be used daily.
Biologique Recherche Body Massage Glove
For best results, it’s recommended to use the BR Body Massage Glove with all body products to optimize results. It’s like visiting the spa every time you take a shower - what a great way to spend the summer.
New Biologique Recherche Masque Visolastine +
Biologique Recherche brings 40 years of skincare passion to its newest face mask product. The Masque Visolastine + will immediately boost hydration levels, strengthens skin's barrier from hydration and reduces transepidermal water loss. It's long lasting moisturizing action provides a soft comfortable feeling to skin for the entire day.
Biologique Recherche Masque Visolastine+ is rich in hydrating, protective and lipid replenishing active ingredients, ideal for all dehydrated skin types. A complete natural solution that offers immediate and lasting hydration to skin. This new mask boosts extended hydration in the upper layers of the epidermis and strengthens the skin's barrier to protect against dehydration.
Masque Visolastine + will replace the Masque Visolastine and Masque Visolastine E. The results of hydration testing of Masque Visolastine + reveal a longer lasting hydration effect. After 4 hours the level of hydration with Visolastine + hydration increased the level reached to +16.1% and the skin remains hydrated even after 8 hours with an increase of + 11.8%. Its durable moisturizing action leaves the skin soft and comfortable all day long. Active ingredients include macadamia nut oil, cotton oil, vitamin E, hyaluronic acid and natural moisturizing sugar complex.
Directions for use: Apply a thin layer of Masque Visolastine + over the face, neck and cleavage. Leave on for 15 minutes and rinse off with lukewarm water. To intensify results around the eye area apply Serum Amniotique to cotton pads and place over the eye while the masks sits.

Prepare Your Skin For Summer With These Five Treatments
Summer is right around the corner and that means hours of soaking up the rays, lounging by the pool, and working on your beach bod.
Inside Hook recently published a great article about “a beach workout you can do for your face” to keep up with your handsome look all summer long.
It’s too good not to share. Here’s the gist.
It’s best to prepare your skin during the spring and early summer before the hot summer months of July and August beat viciously on your skin. During June, try out these five tips for the best skin care preparation. Then during July and August, remember to protect your skin from the harmful sun rays.
Inside Hook compiled these tips from experts in the skincare industry who keep men in mind for their services and products.
Five Spring Skincare Tips For Men
Microneedling
Microneedling is a collagen induction therapy that stimulates new collagen growth through a fine needle treatment, much like acupuncture. Men tend to benefit from microneedling because you are less likely to use skin protectants, so your skin shows signs of aging and damage quicker. Collagen is a natural element created by the body that gives the skin an elastic and young look. Dr. Sejal Shah is the expert on microneedling and offers her treatment at SmarterSkin Dermatology.
Botox and Fillers
Botox and fillers are often skincare treatments that get made fun of in movies; however, when done correctly they are a great therapy to add to your preparation routine. To get rid of wrinkles and to eliminate other aging signs, experts can inject either a hyaluronic acid filler or neurotoxin into your skin. This lasts anywhere from four months to a year, depending on which type of filler is used and the severity of the damage in place before treatment.
Laser Genesis
With lasers firing at your face, it may seem like you’d rather skip this treatment than head to the spa; however, RN Shelly Marshall says, “compared to microneedling, it is way less invasive and can be done with no discomfort or downtime.” Essentially, a dermatologist will use a high powered laser to purposefully damage the top layer of skin, which stimulates new collagen growth. New collagen means a more youthful appearance.
LED
LED, or light emitting diodes, were invented and originally used by NASA; however, we commonly hear of them when talking about modern technology, such as our cell phones and televisions. When used for skin care, specialists use LED exposure to activate younger-looking qualities. Red LED light waves help heal inflammation, reduce acne, and activate collagen. Blue light waves release oxygen into the skin, which is known to help kill bacteria that leads to acne.
Facials
While your typical skincare routine is beneficial and just about like a facial, a visit to the spa means access to advanced esthetics using medical-grade products and experts. Paul Labrecque is the facial expert in NYC. He recommends facials for men because you tend to have more oily skin than women and says facials help balance out the pH levels. At Paul Labrecque Salon and Spa, the Gentlemen’s Deep Cleanse Facial is a top pick. Then, you can keep up with your in-house facial at home with Biologique Recherche Lotion P50. According to Paul Labrecque, Lotion P50 “is great for balancing the skin’s pH levels, and it helps with any acne issues and also minimizes razor burn and ingrown hairs. It really is a miracle product.” You can schedule a facial with Paul Labrecque Salon and Spa in NYC or order Biologique Recherche Lotion P50 to prepare your skin with facials this spring. So once your skin is fully prepared for the summer, it’s important to remember to use sunscreen and other skin protectants to make sure all of your hard work during the spring isn’t immediately reversed.

Paul Labrecque Will Be Offering These New Treatments Fall 2017
Paul Labrecque is expanding its partnership with Biologique Recherche. Together with Wellness for Cancer, Paul Labrecque Salon and Spa will be offering specially adapted Biologique Recherche treatments for people with cancer and survivors.
Insider’s Guide to Spas recently shared the good news of the collaboration between Biologique Recherche and Wellness for Cancer as they strive to do good for those who have suffered most. By focusing on how Biologique Recherche’s products can be used in face and body treatments for cancer patients and survivors, Wellness for Cancer is offering trainings to spas in the United States and in France. Paul Labrecque Salon and Spa is beyond excited to be one of the first spas in the States to go through training and begin offering these treatments this fall.
Biologique Recherche is the type of company who cares about its customers. They see past the glitz and glamour of the Hollywood-type beauty and reach deeper into its client base to offer specialized products and treatments to highlight the beauty in everyone.
Biologique Recherche states that 10 percent of its current client base is touched by cancer. Knowing this, the brand and Wellness for Cancer have explored the impeccable treatments available for those battling cancer.
This new training is not about creating one treatment or one product for cancer patients and survivors to use; it’s about learning how to adapt each Biologique Recherche product into a specialized treatment that accounts for the type of cancer, its treatment, and surgery.
“People who suffer need us to take care of them more than anyone else,” says Biologique Recherche chairman Rupert Schmid in the article. “Now it will be possible, after the trainings delivered by Wellness for Cancer, all over the world!”
To take this act of goodness one step further in the right direction, Biologique Recherche has found NGO partners in every country that will deliver the revolutionary treatments to those who cannot afford them at absolutely no cost to the people. This is actively happening here in New York City!
The goal of the collaboration is to train spa specialists how to specifically tailor each treatment to every person who walks through their doors. First, it is important to know that Biologique Recherche already has extraordinarily high standards for spa treatments using their products, and now it will be pushed to the next level to make sure people with all skin types and conditions are able to be personally treated.
For all of us here at Paul Labrecque Salon and Spa, we are excited to begin our training with Wellness for Cancer and learn how we can help make our patients lives better one Biologique Recherche treatment at a time.
Spring Skincare Toolkit From Biologique Recherche
The birds are chirping, the snow is melting, and the air is getting warmer and more humid. Spring is here! This can be a welcomed change following a cold and bitter winter, but these changes in temperature and humidity can be surprisingly shocking for your skin. Stay ahead of the curve this spring by focusing on the health of your skin (the beauty will follow), and prepare it for a luxurious summer.
Like the flowers and trees are coming back to life, your skin can also find the rejuvenation it needs for a healthy warm season. Paul Labrecque Salon & Spa has all your favorite Biologique Recherche products for your Spring Toolkit. Get your body ready for summer by taking care of it this spring.
Lotion Alpha Kerato-Regulatrice
Recommended for devitalized or dull skin types, this fruit acid toner exfoliates the dry winter skin away from the face. It leaves the skin absolutely glowing! Pair this with Lotion P50 to boost health effects.Biologique Recherche Serum Oligo-Protéines Marines
This bio-marine serum is a natural product that helps protect the epidermis. It stimulates the skin cells which leads to an enhanced and revitalized look on otherwise dull and devitalized skin.Biologique Recherche Preparation UV Pre-Sun
Sun rays are one of the most harmful dangers to the skin during the spring and summer. Protect your skin with a pre-sun preparation routine using Biologique Recherche Preparation UV Pre-Sun that protects against free radicals, which can lead to pigmented spots. Additionally, this promotes natural tanning without exposing skin to the UV rays.Biologique Recherche Creme VIP O2
It’s no surprise that our air is polluted. Our skin needs oxygen to rejuvenate and be healthy, which can be hard to maintain without additional product. Creme VIP O2 is an oxygen skin care product that stimulates, hydrates, and protects the skin from pollutants.Biologique Recherche Protection UV SPF 25
UVA, UVB, and infrared rays are inherently damaging to the skin. Biologique Recherche’s Protection UV SPF 25 is a simple sunscreen that is all-natural and all-inclusive. It protects against the entire spectrum of solar radiation and doesn’t feel like you’re actually wearing sunscreen at all.Biologique Recherche Masque Visolastine Hydrating
Springtime is a great time to focus on aging skin. Winter often leaves skin looking older than what is ideal, so a detox masque like Masque Visolastine Hydrating is one that helps smooth dehydrated skin and enhance natural protections, both of which have anti-aging effects.Biologique Recherche Masque VIP O2 Oxygenating
Like the Masque Visolastine Hydrating, the Masque VIP O2 Oxygenating helps protect the skin from harmful pollutants and replenishes the epidermis with necessary nutrients to help it thrive. This masque protects, hydrates, tones, and gives the skin a beautiful and natural glow.Biologique Recherche Lotion P50 Corps
An exfoliating lotion, P50 Corps balances the acidity levels in the epidermis. It is like Lotion P50 Visage, but it this product is intended for full body care rather than just for the face. Exfoliation is an essential step in moving from winter to spring without any skincare hiccups.Biologique Recherche Body Oxygénant
After exfoliating with Lotion P50 Corps, Body Oxygénant repairs and soothes the newly exposed skin. Not only does it smooth skin, but it helps combat cellulite by replenishing the skin cells with much-needed oxygen. This repairing product is especially helpful to have on hand after a peel or a sunburn.Biologique Recherche Emulsion Corps Vip O2
The Emulsion Corps VIP O2 is a deeply penetrating moisturizer. Not only does it help soothe skin, but it protects from the daily aggressors that attempt to attack our skin. This moisturizer is long-lasting, so it’ll protect you all day.Biologique Recherche Griffonia & L-Tyrosine Dietary Supplement
Caring for your body this spring is more than just caring for your skin. Spring is the time to start working on that summer body, and a healthy way to build a summer body is by following a proper diet and exercise routine. Supplement these health practices with Biologique Recherche Griffonia & L-Tyrosine to help balance energy levels, regulate eating reward factors, and control food cravings for better weight management.Again, all of these Biologique Recherche products are what your skin needs to perfectly transition from the dry and dull winter to the fresh and revitalized spring. Shop at Paul Labrecque Salon & Spa in New York City or online to build your toolkit.

Mandy Moore Uses This Hydrating Mask From Paul Labrecque
As nothing short of beautiful is how just about any American would describe Mandy Moore. From life as a young popstar to her admirable and respectable career as an established actress, Moore has always seemed to maintain a flawless look and attitude. Recently, Health.com wrote an article about whether Moore may be “secretly bathing in the fountain of youth,” as they tracked an Instagram pic from her story showing a behind-the-scenes selfie (which can be seen on Health.com or RealSimple.com).
In a quick snap of her mask-covered face as she’s lounging in a black and white striped shirt, she captions the photo “@biologique_recherche_usa VIP O2 mask ftw”. So this is her secret to beautiful and radiant skin!
Mandy Moore is referring to the Biologique Recherche Masque VIP O2 Oxygenating, which is available at Paul Labrecque Skincare Spa. You can buy this online and receive free shipping!
About the VIP O2 Mask
This soothing mask is one that hydrates the skin. A dull and devitalized skin tone will soon be hydrated and toned with the help of this mask that is packed full of natural essential fatty acids, marine elastin, marine collagen, vitamin C and the Biologique Recherche exclusive oxygenating skin care complex. If you’re looking for skin like Mandy Moore’s, you’ve come to the right place.
Hydrates
Skin hydration is essential to optimal health. Each and every day, our skin is exposed to terrible pollutants. In order to best care for our skin, we must eradicate the pollutants that dry the skin and revitalize it with a hydrating cream. The nutrients in the mask help protect the skin against sun damage, which is always a welcomed trait.
Soothes
What’s more relaxing than a facial? Very few things, we believe. The soothing effects you’ll feel both while the mask is on your face and after your face has been washed will leave you wanting more. Keep yourself to just two masks a week, though!
Oxygenates
The oxygenating properties of the VIP O2 mask go hand-in-hand with the hydrating effects. Since the air our skin breathes is exposed to many harmful pollutants, introducing a direct supply of oxygen to the facial cells will help provide the strength they need to regenerate and glow. The more oxygen your body receives, the more youthful it remains. Essentially, long-term use of VIP O2 has anti-aging effects, just like we’ve seen in Mandy Moore!
Tones
With more oxygen in your system, the cells are able to fully regenerate. This means the body has the properties it needs to fully discard the dead skin cells, which makes way for the new, healthy skin cells to take their place. Ultimately, this means your face shows only the healthiest skin cells.
How To Use Biologique Recherche Masque VIP O2 Oxygenating
- Squeeze the cream into the palm of your hand - start with a quarter-size amount and add more if necessary.
- Spread a thin layer of the cream onto your face, neck, and decollete, with an extra focus around the eyes.
- Leave the mask on for 15 to 20 minutes.
- Rinse it off with a warm washcloth.
- Repeat no more than two times per week.
Our team here at Paul Labrecque Salon and Spa extend our sincere gratitude to Health.com, RealSimple.com, and especially Mandy Moore for their continued support of Biologique Recherche products and their incredibly powerful healing effects.
