SMUKKE EDGE
Not another anti-ageing cream. Adipeau takes an entirely different approach to visible facial volume loss, targeting the look of hollow cheeks, sunken temples and depleted-looking skin for a fuller, firmer, more supported appearance. Consider us intrigued.
A science-led facial volume cream for areas where age-related volume changes become noticeable, including the cheeks, temples, under-eye area and backs of the hands.
Adipeau Active Face Cream takes a distinctly different approach to conventional anti-ageing skincare. Rather than focusing only on surface hydration, its patented formula was developed around the science of facial fat fitness and the relationship between healthy-looking dermal tissue and the appearance of facial fullness.
Formulated with botanical actives, non-comedogenic long-chain fatty acids and nourishing oils, it is designed to improve the appearance of thinning, depleted-looking skin with consistent use, helping it look plumper, firmer and more supported.
WHY WE LOVE IT
Most plumping creams work by temporarily increasing hydration at the skin's surface. Adipeau caught our attention because its entire philosophy is different: focus on the skin environment associated with healthy-looking facial volume rather than simply making dehydration lines appear fuller.
It's unusual. It's science-heavy. And it's addressing a concern traditional moisturizers largely ignore. That's precisely why it earned a place at Smukke House.
BEST FOR
Facial volume loss • Hollow cheeks • Sunken temples • Under-eye hollows • Depleted-looking skin • Mature skin • Thinning-looking skin • Ageing hands
WHAT MAKES ADIPEAU DIFFERENT
Adipeau's approach was inspired by research into facial adipose tissue and ageing. Its patented topical technology combines Kaempferia parviflora (black ginger) extract with lipid-rich ingredients and was developed around delivery through the skin's follicular pathways.
Rather than positioning itself as another conventional firming or plumping moisturizer, Adipeau focuses specifically on the appearance of facial volume, fullness and skin quality.
The formula has also been evaluated using 3D facial imaging in a registered clinical study, making it particularly interesting for anyone looking beyond conventional moisturizers for visible facial volume loss.
WHERE TO USE IT
Apply to areas where loss of fullness or thinning-looking skin is most noticeable, including:
Cheeks • Temples • Under-eye area • Jaw and lower face • Backs of hands
HOW TO USE
Apply consistently to clean skin in the areas where you want to improve the appearance of fullness, firmness and overall skin quality.
Adipeau can be used on both the face and backs of the hands. Follow Adipeau's recommended application protocol for best results.
