COMPLETE YOUR ROUTINE

BRIGHTEN ME Multi Action Eye Cream

BRIGHTEN ME is an innovative formula that combines FRÉ's exclusive patent: Argania Active Complex™ with natural patented quinoa and peptide complexes. Quinoa and peptides reduce the appearance of dark circles and under eye bags. Argania Active Complex™ protects and repairs the delicate skin around the eyes from sun damage, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This formula is clinically proven to fade dark circles by 90% and depuff under eyes.

For best results, BRIGHTEN ME should be applied after cleansing and applying serums, but before oils, SPFs and moisturizers. We recommend using it in the morning and evening every day.

DETOX ME Instant Clearing Mask

This kaolin clay based clearing mask is formulated to detox skin and unlock a healthy glow. It contains salicylic acid, argan & dandelion leaf extract to gently exfoliate, reduce inflammation, unclog pores, and fight breakouts. Use it to minimize the look of pores & reduce excess oil. It turns dull skin into glowing skin!

Use DETOX ME as part of your night routine 1-3 times a week depending on your skin type. For oilier skin, opt for 3 times. For more sensitive skin once a week should be enough. Apply a thin layer to damp skin on its own or after cleansing with PURIFY ME or CLEANSE ME. Leave on for 5-10 minutes, then rinse off and follow with serums and moisturizer.

HYDRATE ME + Plumping Peptide

This night mask was formulated to visibly plump and even skin texture. HYDRATE ME + fights photoaging with FRÉ’s antioxidant patent: Argania Active Complex™. The formula is enriched with prebiotics and sea buckthorn oil to heal skin. Use it to regenerate skin overnight, deeply hydrate, smooth fine wrinkles, firm & plump skin.

HYDRATE ME + should be used as the last step of your evening routine, after serums and moisturizers. Apply an even layer to skin and leave on overnight. Use 2-3 times per week. (There’s no need to wash it off in the morning! Just continue your facial routine as usual).

MOISTURIZE ME Ultra-Rich Repair Cream

This daily must-have locks in moisture for a youthful, glowing complexion. It contains prebiotics, ceramides, & FRÉ’s patented antioxidant complex to heal sensitive skin, repair the skin barrier, and fight UV damage. Use it to firm & smooth skin, and to heal sensitive skin (redness & inflammation).

We recommend applying an even layer to the face, morning and evening. It should be applied after serums, but before SPF. (Always make sure SPF is the last step in your morning routine!)

100% Organic Argan Oil + I AM LOVE

Our 100% Organic Argan Oil is the perfect multitasker and can be used all over face, body and hair. Argan contains a potent combination of fatty acids, Vitamin E and antioxidants, making it the perfect anti-aging, nourishing and hydrating oil.

I AM LOVE, co-created with Global Yoga Instructor Talia Sutra, is a luxurious, yet minimalistic, all-natural blend of 5 super-oils. These oils were carefully selected to create a wellspring of antioxidants, essential fatty acids, vitamins and nutrients.

Oils should be applied after serums, eye creams and moisturizers but before SPF creams. Applying an oil after an SPF means the products won’t work. Depending on your skin type you can use oils on their own, separate to other serums and moisturizers, or layered together. Argan oil can also be used all over the body and on hair in addition to using it on your face.

REFRESH ME Toning Glow Mist

REFRESH ME is a two-layer fine mist spray. The first layer contains argan and grapeseed oil for deep hydration, while the second layer contains radish, pea and watermelon extract as well as rose and ylang ylang essential oils to soothe and refresh.

You can use REFRESH ME whenever you want! It’s designed to instantly hydrate skin during or after a workout, refresh skin during the day, and to be used before and after makeup and other skincare products as a glow booster.

I AM JOY Natural Toner

I AM JOY, co-created with Global Yoga Instructor Talia Sutra, is made with just nine natural ingredients. It supplies your skin with deeply nourishing vitamins, healing minerals and powerful antioxidants while maintaining the balance of pH levels which protect your skin.

I AM JOY can be misted gently onto facial skin morning and night after cleansing, over makeup as a dewy setting spray or anytime your skin feels dull and dehydrated during the day. Applying I AM JOY after you have cleansed helps prepare your skin for the best possible absorption of serums, moisturizers and oils. It is especially formulated to be used directly before applying I AM LOVE.
