THE Science behind eclipse
ILLUMINYL™ 388: SKIN-TONE-INCLUSIVE BRIGHTENING TECHNOLOGY
A biotechnology-refined form of EGCG, the main polyphenol of green tea, bound to glucose by an enzymatic process. The glucose unit makes the molecule more stable and soluble than raw EGCG, so it performs where the plant molecule falls short. It helps regulate pigment production and offers antioxidant protection, for brighter, more even-looking skin on every skin tone.
MANGIXYL™: SEBUM-BALANCING TECHNOLOGY
An extract from the leaves of the mango tree (Mangifera indica), rich in mangiferin, a natural xanthone polyphenol. It helps regulate sebum secretion at the source, reducing excess shine and refining skin texture, for a softly matte, polished finish.
ACTIVATED CHARCOAL: CLARIFYING TECHNOLOGY
Charcoal produced by carbonising plant material at high temperature, then activating it to create a highly porous structure with a very large surface area. The pores bind oil and surface impurities, leaving skin feeling purified and fresh. It also gives Eclipse its signature black colour.
PRIMALHYAL™ 50 LIFE: HYDRATING TECHNOLOGY
A low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid from Givaudan Active Beauty, produced by fermentation. Its smaller chains reach the upper layers of the skin, where they bind water and keep the surface plump and comfortable, so the glow looks healthy and not dry.
Glow guide
For optimal results, in the morning, start with Hydra Serum and Effet Filler for a smoother, plumper base. Apply Aurore around the eye area, then follow with Luisance or Eclipse for added radiance. Finish with sunscreen to protect skin from UV damage, then Élixir Lèvres for soft, cushioned lips.
In the evening, repeat Hydra Serum and Effet Filler, apply Aurore, then close the ritual with one night cream: Lune Bleue for overnight renewal, or Abyssale for deep, lasting moisture and comfort on reactive skin. Use one night cream per evening rather than stacking them.
Suitable for daily use and all skin types. For sensitive skin, consider a patch test before first use. Consistent application is key to maintaining skin that looks hydrated, smooth and luminous.
Brand FAQs
Are your products made by yourself?
Yes. Every Soréa formula is developed and manufactured at our own production facility and R&D centre in Bergamo, Italy. From ingredient selection and formulation development to manufacturing and quality control, we oversee the process ourselves to ensure consistency, quality and performance.
HOW DO I CHOOSE THE RIGHT SORÉA PRODUCTS FOR MY SKIN?
Each Soréa formulation is developed with a specific skincare purpose, whether that's improving hydration, supporting the skin barrier, enhancing radiance or targeting visible signs of ageing. Explore the benefits and key ingredients on each product page to identify the formulations best suited to your skin's needs.
Are your cosmetics cruelty-free?
Absolutely. We do not test any of our products or ingredients on animals, and we ensure that our suppliers adhere to the same ethical standards.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO SEE RESULTS?
Results depend on the formulation, your skin's condition, and consistency of use. Hydrating products may provide an immediate improvement in skin comfort and appearance, while benefits such as improved texture, radiance and the appearance of fine lines generally require continued use over several weeks. Individual results may vary.
WHAT MAKES SORÉA DIFFERENT FROM OTHER SKINCARE BRANDS?
The formulation comes before marketing. We select ingredients based on their function, scientific evidence, and contribution to the overall formula, rather than simply following industry trends. Every product is developed in our Italian R&D centre with a focus on purposeful ingredient combinations, effective concentrations and meaningful skincare benefits.
ARE YOUR PRODUCTS SUITABLE FOR SENSITIVE SKIN?
Our range includes formulations designed to address different skin concerns, including sensitivity, dehydration and a weakened skin barrier. However, every skin type is unique, and individual tolerance may vary. We recommend reviewing each product's ingredients and performing a patch test before introducing it into your routine.
CAN I USE MULTIPLE SORÉA PRODUCTS TOGETHER?
Absolutely! Our products are designed to fit into a skincare routine and can be combined according to your individual needs. As a general guide, apply lightweight serums before creams, allowing each product to absorb. Introduce new products gradually and follow the application instructions provided.
Do your products have an expiration date?
Yes. Our products carry the appropriate shelf-life information in accordance with applicable cosmetic regulations. Depending on the product, this may be indicated by an expiration date or a Period After Opening (PAO) symbol, showing how long the product can be used after opening. Always follow the storage instructions on the packaging.
