Apply a generous, even layer to the face using fingertips or a soft brush, avoiding the eye and lip areas. Leave on for 15 minutes. Rinse gently with lukewarm water and pat dry. Follow with serum and cream. Use 2–3 times per week. Do not use on broken or highly sensitised skin.
Retinol causes photosensitivity.
Revinage® does not.
Traditional retinol is the most clinically validated anti-aging active available — but it makes skin photosensitive, which makes it dangerous in high-UV climates like the US Sun Belt. Most retinol users in Phoenix, Miami, and Houston are either avoiding it entirely or using it incorrectly.
ILLUMINÉ Diamond Mask uses Revinage® Bioretinol — a plant-derived retinoid that activates the same collagen-stimulating and cell-renewal pathways as retinol without generating photosensitivity. Combined with 8% Glycolic Acid and Diamond Powder, it delivers clinical exfoliation results that are safe to use year-round under the intense US sun.
Seven actives.
One clinical exfoliation
ritual.
ILLUMINÉ Diamond Mask combines physical, enzymatic, and chemical exfoliation in a single formula. Here is the precise mechanism of each active and why the combination is superior to any single-approach exfoliant.
Diamond Powder
Ultra-fine micronised diamond particles work in two ways simultaneously — physically smoothing the micro-texture of the skin surface to reduce the appearance of enlarged pores and roughness, while diffracting light to create an immediate optical brightening effect that is visible from the first application.
Revinage® Bioretinol
Derived from Pomegranate (Punica Granatum) — activates the same retinoic acid receptors as retinol to boost collagen synthesis, accelerate cell turnover, and visibly reduce fine lines and uneven pigmentation, without generating the photosensitivity that makes traditional retinol unsafe for regular use in high-UV climates.
Glycolic Acid (8%)
At 8%, Glycolic Acid effectively dissolves the intercellular bonds holding dead keratinocytes on the skin surface — accelerating natural cell turnover, fading post-inflammatory pigmentation and sun damage, and preparing the skin to absorb subsequent actives at dramatically higher efficacy. pH-adjusted for efficacy without barrier disruption.
Swiss Glacial Water
The ultra-pure alpine glacial water base that anchors every SÉRÈNE formula — providing essential trace minerals that support cellular enzymatic processes and a uniquely bioavailable hydration matrix that counteracts the temporary dryness that can follow exfoliation.
Edelweiss Extract
Applied post-exfoliation, Edelweiss Extract’s role becomes critical — the freshly exfoliated skin is temporarily more vulnerable to UV and free radical damage, and the Edelweiss antioxidant complex provides immediate shielding while the barrier regenerates. Essential in a mask designed for high-UV climates.
Keratoline (Bacillus Ferment)
A naturally fermented enzyme complex that selectively breaks down the protein bonds in the outermost stratum corneum — providing a gentler, targeted enzymatic exfoliation layer that works in synergy with the Glycolic Acid chemical exfoliation, extending efficacy across the full depth of the keratin layer.
Vitamin E
Applied in the post-exfoliation window, Vitamin E integrates into the temporarily more permeable cell membrane to provide deep antioxidant protection and immediate moisture restoration — countering both the oxidative stress and the transient water loss that accompany the exfoliation process.
The ritual
perfected.
Sequence and technique matter as much as the formula itself. Warming activates the lipid complexes. Upward motions work with the skin’s natural tension. Layering over the serum maximises bioavailability of every active.
Cleanse & Tone
Begin with Aurora Cleanser and Glacial Toner. The barrier must be intact and pH-balanced for maximum active absorption.
Apply Serum First
If using the Elixir Gold & Caviar Serum, apply now and allow 60 seconds. The cream seals in and amplifies the serum’s actives.
Warm Between Fingertips
Take a pea-sized amount and press between fingertips for 5–8 seconds. Warmth activates the lipid complexes and improves spreadability.
Apply with Upward Motions
Sweep upward from décolleté to neck to face, working outward from the centre — working with lymphatic flow.
Finish with SPF (AM)
Allow 2 minutes, then apply Lumière SPF 50. SPF must always be the outermost layer in your morning ritual.

Elixir Gold & Caviar Serum
Apply immediately after rinsing — freshly exfoliated skin absorbs actives at significantly higher efficacy.
Lumière SPF 50
Exfoliated skin is more UV-sensitive. Lumière SPF 50 is essential the morning after every mask treatment.
Lèvres d’Or Mask
Apply simultaneously for a complete weekly face and lip renewal treatment in a single session.
“I’ve been too scared to use retinol year-round in Phoenix because of the UV. This mask gives me everything retinol promised — brighter skin, smaller pores, smoother texture — without the photosensitivity. I use it twice a week and it’s transformed my routine.”
“The glow the morning after using this mask is real. My skin looks like I’ve had a professional facial. The diamond powder does something instantly visible and the Glycolic keeps working for days afterward.”
“Six weeks of twice-weekly use and my dermatologist said my skin looks the best it has in years. The sun damage pigmentation on my cheeks has faded noticeably. I pair it immediately with the Caviar Serum and the combination is clinical.”
