Apothéose Moisturisers by Sonia Sélaire

Moisturising is the final step of a skincare routine — and one of the most essential.

Developed with Sonia Sélaire, the Apothéose moisturisers are designed as the closing step of the Synfonie skincare maestro range, helping to maintain hydration, support the skin barrier, and bring overall balance to the skin.

These formulas go beyond basic moisturisation. They combine humectants, emollients, and barrier-supporting ingredients to help retain moisture, reinforce the skin’s protective function, and improve overall skin comfort over time.

Designed to complement the active steps of the routine, they help support skin resilience and maintain a well-balanced skin environment.

Available in two textures, each is adapted to different skin needs:

• Soin Caresse (Light Moisturiser) – A lightweight formula that provides hydration without heaviness, ideal for normal to combination skin or for daytime use

• Soin Velours (Rich Moisturiser) – A more nourishing texture designed for dry or compromised skin, helping to support barrier function and provide lasting comfort

The  Apothéose Moisturisers - A Dual Approach to Lasting Skin Health

Developed with Sonia Sélaire, the Apothéose moisturisers are designed as the final step of the Synfonie skincare maestro routine, supporting hydration, barrier function, and overall skin balance over time.

The formulas combine clinically recognised actives with ingredients selected to help maintain moisture, support skin comfort, and reinforce the skin barrier.

Available in two textures - light and rich - they adapt to different skin needs, offering either a lightweight daily finish or a more replenishing, comfort-focused application.

Soin Velours – Rich Moisturiser

A richer formula designed to support dry or depleted skin, particularly in the evening.

Formulated with squalane, sweet almond oil, and jojoba oil to provide emollient support and improve skin softness. Niacinamide and diglucosyl gallic acid contribute to skin tone uniformity and overall skin balance.

Ceramide NP helps reinforce the skin barrier and reduce moisture loss, supporting long-term skin comfort.

The texture provides a more substantial layer, helping maintain hydration and comfort overnight.

Perfect for: morning and/or evening routines, dry or mature skin, barrier support.

Advanced Science, Elevated Skincare

“This skincare collection is the result of several years spent analysing the real needs of the skin. I developed these formulas based on my experience and on an approach built around a precise balance between efficacy and pleasure of use. This collection reflects my vision of skin longevity: skincare designed to support the skin’s evolution with high standards, sensoriality, and coherence.” - Sonia Sélaire

Science-Backed Formulation

Both moisturisers are built around a core of clinically recognised ingredients chosen for their role in supporting long-term skin health:

Both Light and Rich Moisturisers

Ceramide NP: helps reinforce the skin's lipid barrier - the protective layer responsible for locking in moisture and shielding against environmental stressors. Research supports the role of ceramides in maintaining skin barrier integrity, particularly as natural ceramide levels decline with age (1).

0.1% Sodium Hyaluronate: This is a humectant (and form of hyaluronic acid) capable of binding significant amounts of moisture within the skin's surface layers, supporting plumpness and suppleness throughout the day (2).

Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): is one of the most studied topical activities available, associated with improvements in skin tone, texture, and barrier function (3).

Tocopherol (Vitamin E): provides antioxidant support, helping to neutralise free radicals that contribute to visible skin ageing (4).

Diglucosyl Gallic Acid: a plant-derived antioxidant with brightening properties, rounding out the formula's protective profile (5).

Light moisturiser 

Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38: a signal peptide that supports the synthesis of key skin matrix proteins, making it a valued active in formulas focused on skin longevity and firmness over time (6).

Rich Moisturiser

Squalane & Sweet Almond Oil: deeply nourishing emollients that restore the skin's lipid profile and provide lasting comfort for dry and mature skin (7).

Natural Ingredients Supporting Skin From Within

Alongside these actives, both moisturisers are grounded in a thoughtful selection of natural emollients and plant-derived oils:

Our light moisturiser features Sunflower Seed Oil and Jojoba Esters:l ightweight, skin-compatible lipids that soften without congesting - alongside Glycerin for baseline hydration.

The rich moisturiser builds on this with the addition of Squalane (a highly compatible emollient derived from plant sources), Sweet Almond Oil, and Jojoba Seed Oil, creating a deeply nourishing yet balanced base that supports the skin's own lipid profile.

Naturecan's broader commitment to science-led wellness runs through everything from supplement development to skincare, and this collaboration is no exception. Explore our full Longevity Collection to see how this philosophy extends across the range.
