The Science Unfolded

MBR® FibroBoost Complex

A patented peptide powerhouse, encapsulated in intelligent carrier technology, it reawakens skin’s vital signaling and reanimates fibroblasts—the architects of collagen and elastin—igniting a cascade of youthful vitality.

Liquid Surgery® Complex

Built on advanced synthetic perfluorocarbons, this medical-grade oxygen carrier delivers a surge of pure oxygen while sweeping away carbon dioxide—revitalizing skin metabolism at its deepest level and laying the groundwork for visibly radiant renewal.

MBR® Smooth M8 (Peptide Complex)

A sophisticated ally that relaxes micro-muscular contractions, softening expression lines and refining the skin’s texture.

Hydration & Nourishment + Antioxidants

Formulated with hyaluronic acid, vitamin E, meadowfoam seed oil, and argan oil, this serum masterfully locks in moisture, fortifies the skin barrier, and shields against environmental stressors.

Other potent ingredients—such as Pentavitin®, Thalassine 2G, Syn-Ake, and Rosmarinyl™ Glucoside—contribute hydration, firming, and smoothing benefits for a multi-dimensional formula.

Why Your Skin Thrives

  • Revives Cellular Energy
    By optimizing oxygenation and streamlining metabolism, it gives skin a truly awakened glow.  
  • Builds Structural Elegance
    Strengthens collagen and elastin fibers, enhancing density, volume, and contour with lasting impact.  
  • Softens Expression & Deep Lines
    Smooths fine lines by diminishing micro-contractions in the skin’s architecture.  
  • Locks in Lasting Hydration
    Deeply replenishes moisture and enhances the skin’s ability to retain it over time.  
  • Refines Texture & Radiance
    Evens tone, smooths surface, and reveals flawless luminosity.  

Elegance in Application

  • How to Apply:
    Use both morning and evening. Begin with a thorough cleanse (preferably with the Enzyme Cleansing Booster), then gently massage THE BEST Concentrate across your face and décolleté—allowing its intelligent delivery system to deeply infuse the skin, followed by your preferred MBR cream.   
  • Treatment Tip:
    Ideally used as part of a three-month intensive—and complemented by other products in THE BEST line—for sustained, transformative results.  

Beauty with a Refined Edge

Imagine your skin renewed at its cellular roots—oxygenated, youthful, luminous. THE BEST Concentrate offers that luxury: high-performance science, sleekly packaged in a daily ritual. It’s skincare that doesn’t just adorn but empowers, fusing innovation with breathtaking results.

When the world slows and night falls, your skin embarks on its most transformative journey. THE BEST Night Mask is the ultimate expression of this nightly magic—a sumptuous cream mask that delivers profound anti-aging results, even as you rest.

The Science Behind the Glow

MBR® FibroBoost Complex

At the heart of this luxurious mask lies MBR’s exclusive FibroBoost Complex—a patented blend designed to reawaken fibroblasts, the cells responsible for collagen and elastin production. By activating these skin-structuring architects, the mask promotes firmer, more resilient tissue and visibly reduced lines and wrinkles.

Capsules™ Technology

Leveraging MBR’s intelligent Capsules™ delivery system, key actives are beautifully preserved until they reach the deepest layers of the skin—where they can perform their restorative magic overnight.

Supporting Actives for Complete Renewal

  • Ceramide III: Fortifies the skin barrier, locking in hydration.
  • Bio-Placenta: Delivers a potent cocktail of growth factors, amino acids, and vitamins to accelerate regeneration.  
  • Hydranov-P: A red-algae extract that stimulates hyaluronic acid synthesis for deep hydration and plumpness.

Why You’ll Wake Up Beautiful

    Recharges your skin’s renewal cycle—helping to rebuild collagen and elastin as you sleep.  
  • Fortified Hydration & Elasticity
    Dual hyaluronic acids and hydrating oils work in concert to boost moisture retention and skin resilience.  
  • Lifted, Youthful Contours
    The combined power of fibroblast activation and botanical nourishment visibly lifts, firms, and redefines facial contours.  
  • Soft, Radiant Skin Texture
    Rich ingredients soothe the skin while refining texture—so you wake up to velvety, luminous skin.  
  • Perfect for Pre- or Post-Procedure Skin Prep
    Acts as a regenerative support before cosmetic treatments or as a delicate, effective aftercare alternative. 

Application: A Ritual in Elegance

  1. Evening Preparation
    Begin with the Enzyme Cleansing Booster to beautifully prep and open the skin. 
  2. Apply the Mask
    Spread an even, thin layer across the face and neck. Let it rest overnight, allowing ingredients to activate cellular renewal. 
  3. Optional Intensified Use
    For a spa-like boost, apply a thicker layer (about the size of the back of a knife), let it sit for 20+ minutes, and then wipe off before continuing with your skincare. 
  4. Frequency
    Use 2–3 times weekly, or nightly as your luxe finishing step in the evening. 

A Modern Beauty Slumber Worth Waking Up To

Every night, while the world dreams, THE BEST Night Mask indulges your skin in layered nourishment and elegance. It’s not just a mask—it’s a nightly reverie of science meeting beauty, delivering morning radiance with every application.

Serum A-Glyca - a transformative experience

Serum A-Glyca - a transformative experience

Imagine the hushed elegance of a Parisian apothecary bottled into a petite glass vial—this is the essence of Biologique Recherche’s Serum A‑Glyca. A sophisticated elixir that glides onto the skin like a silken whisper, this transformative serum is the beauty editor’s subtle declaration: science and luxury can indeed embrace.

The Science of Time-Reversal

At its heart lies a skincare mythbuster—glycation. A stealthy aging process, glycation sees surplus sugar molecules latch onto structural proteins like collagen and elastin, forging damaging cross-links known as Advanced Glycation End-products (AGEs). The result? Fibers stiffen, skin loses elasticity, and wrinkles deepen  .

Serum A‑Glyca disrupts this in elegant precision. Its star pairing of mimosa (Albizia julibrissin bark extract) and carcinine acts in tandem: mimosa protects against glycation’s assault, while carcinine sweeps away glucose that has already ensnared proteins—essentially freeing them from sugar’s grip  .

Biologique Recherche boldly quantifies the payoff: two months of consistent use can reverse up to two years of glycation damage  . A proposition as enthralling as it is scientific.

Skin, Reawakened

What happens when you coax your skin back towards its former vitality?

  • Wrinkles soften, firmness returns as the dermal matrix loosens from sugar-bound rigidity  .
  • Radiance blooms, banishing the fatigue-induced dullness that glycation often brings  .
  • Skin regains resiliency, no longer weighed down by compromised collagen or elastin  .
  • A renewed glow—livelier tone, revitalized texture, subtle but undeniable lift  .

Ritual, Refined

Here, simplicity meets sensorial delight:

  • Designed as a quintessential serum, A‑Glyca enters your routine after cleansing and toning, morning and evening  .
  • A few drops—no more than that—massaged upward across the face, neck, and décolleté, until fully absorbed  .
  • Its lightweight, non‑irritating texture plays beautifully with other serums and lotions. Layering is welcomed, especially in a curated anti-aging regimen  .
  • A subtle nod: the vials are delicate, and opening them reveals a tactile elegance—a quietly luxurious experience, like starting a ritual.

The Final Glow

Biologique Recherche’s Serum A-Glyca is beauty editorialized: rigorous science—glycation’s undoing—translated into an opulent ritual. In its amber-toned vial lies a promise: to protect, to restore, to reveal skin reborn. It’s not a quick fix, but an artful reset—a subtle encore to your skin’s natural radiance.

And in that quiet return lies the truest beauty of all.
