Sisley’s strong values are built
on its family culture, its place in the grand tradition of French cosmetics,
and its international ambitions. Skincare, makeup, and perfume… By
bringing together its expertise, its consultation know-how, and its creativity,

Phyto-cosmetology is the concept
at the center of Sisley’s creations and relates to using the best plant-based
extracts in order to create the best cosmetics. Their success is built on its
laboratories’ innovative strength. Products are only put on the market once it
has been satisfactorily proven at the term of a long research process that a
product is both safe and effective.

The box
arrives innocuously enough in an unassuming, black box. Inside is a card describing
the month’s theme and product selection and an ivory satin drawstring pouch
that carries the items.
February’s theme is “Beauty Award Winners.” Here are the products:
Radiant Glow Express Mask (60ml full-size:
$128, 4ml sample: ~$8.53)
A gentle cleansing mask with red clay that leaves the skin with a radiant appearance. The absorbing power of the clay, in combination with plant extracts and essential oils, help to reduce impurities that dull the complexion while deeply cleaning the skin. The texture is soft, supple, and non-drying and does not create a pulling sensation on the skin. Skin appears toned and smoothed with a fresh, even complexion.
Key ingredients: Red Clay detoxifies. Rosemary essential oil disinfects and protects against damage. Rosehip promotes cell regeneration. Red Vine tones. Plant-based Glycerin and Carrot hydrate. Chamomile essential oil soothes.
MY THOUGHTS: This went on super creamy for being clay. I love the rose-gold color. It made my face look ethereal while it was on (see below). As it set, it didn’t dry or tug at my skin, and when I washed it off after five minutes, my face felt smooth and clean-feeling. It has a very strong antiseptic smell, which I associate with cleanliness. This is a new class of clay masks for me.
Black Rose Cream Mask (60ml full-size:
$162, 10ml trial-size: $27)
Offers the skin the look of “instant youth.” Rich in anti-aging ingredients, it instantly works on diminishing signs of fatigue and leaves the skin looking more youthful and energized. It brings together three actions to restore a luminous complexion – a smoothing and plumping action, a revitalizing action, and a softening and hydrating action.
Deliciously scented with rose, this soft, creamy mask creates a moment of relaxation and pleasure. Immediately hydrated and plumped, the skin appears visibly smoother and the signs of aging are minimized. The complexion regains its radiance.
Key ingredients: Black Rose, Great Mullen, and Magnolia essential oil soothe. Red Vine promotes radiance. Chlorella revitalizes. Shea Butter nourishes. Provitamin B5 and Vegetable Glycerin hydrate. Phytosqualane moisturizes. Padina Pavonica helps improve firmness and elasticity. Physalis Alkekengi Calyx extract protects against blue light exposure.
MY THOUGHTS: After cleansing and exfoliating, but before moisturizing, I applied a layer of this cream and, after fifteen minutes, wiped off the excess with a moist cloth. It has a faint, authentic rose scent and a light, lotion-like texture. It’s so light, in fact, I would consider using it as a sleeping pack if I had a rough few skin days (chlorine, sun exposure, etc). I nearly forgot I had it on and I can’t say that for many masks. My face definitely felt more supple after use.
Express Flower Gel Mask (60ml full-size:
$140, 4ml sample: ~$9.33)
An express cream-gel mask for visibly refreshed, more supple, and velvety skin in just three minutes. Designed for dehydrated, dull or tired-looking skin. Through its exceptional concentration of moisturizing ingredients, it hydrates, tones, and minimizes the appearance of signs of fatigue and stress. The complexion appears smoother and more even in just three minutes.
Key ingredients: Sesame hydrates and protects from environmental factors. White Lily hydrates and softens. Rose freshens and softens. Iris tones and softens.
MY THOUGHTS: This mask has almost no smell to it. It’s thin and a little goes a long way. I dabbed off the excess after a few minutes and realized I could’ve put on a lot less. It takes some time to absorb fully so I would suggest using it at night. It left my face, neck, and decolletage feeling deeply moisturized and super soft.
Sisleÿa L’Integral Anti-Age (50ml full-size: $525, 4ml trial-size: $42)
Fights against the visible signs associated with the three types of aging – environmental, genetics, and behavioral – to provide a truly complete anti-aging formula.
Its unique cocktail of revitalizing ingredients helps support the skin’s own youth-enhancing abilities to better preserve the beauty of the complexion. The results are spectacular on wrinkles, firmness, radiance, density, and hydration to preserve the skin’s beauty.
From the first few applications, lines appear smoothed, skin is visibly plumped and durably moisturized, and signs of fatigue are reduced. After four weeks, wrinkles are visibly diminished and the face appears more firm, dense, and radiant. After eight weeks, the skin glows more as if replenished from the inside and perceived aging has lessened.
Key ingredients: Rhatany, Lady’s Mantle, Soy Peptide, White Willow Leaf, Lindera, Persian Acacia, and Apple Pip (Phytostimulines and Ursolic Acid) extracts revitalize. Shea Butter protects. Vegetable Glycerin hydrates and softens. A blend of vitamins, minerals, trace elements, and amino acids energize. Yeast protects against damage. Soy Protein conditions.
ME: This is a very rich cream and has a light, fresh fragrance. I found it worked better at night as a sleeping pack on my skin because of its thickness. It takes a while to absorb and my face was highly moisturized for hours. I had a rare breakout using this product that I did not experience with other items from the Sisley Paris lineup.
Having said that, results really were visible after five days. I have some tiny, tough-to-shake fine lines around the outside of my eyebrows near my temples… and they’re gone! I don’t know where they went, but they ain’t here anymore. This cream works miracles.
Sisleÿum for Men – Normal (50ml full-size:
$275, 3ml trial-size: $16.50)
A global revitalizing, anti-aging skin care product designed specifically for men. It supports the skin's resistance against daily harmful effects (shaving, cold, stress, and pollution). It visibly firms, minimizes the appearance of wrinkles, hydrates, fortifies and revitalizes, and protects against razor burn and signs of fatigue. The complexion is soothed, hydrated, and softened and appears less tired (a combination of key ingredients rich in oligo-elements). Fine lines and wrinkles are reduced and the skin looks toned, firmed, and more youthful. Sisleÿum is available in two fresh, non-greasy textures: normal skin (a gel texture for clean, matte skin) and dry skin (a cream texture for comfortable, supple, matte skin). Tested to be non-comedogenic.

Apply morning and/or night to clean and dry skin. Ideal as an aftershave. For dry skin. Appropriate for sensitive skin.
ME: My husband is always excited when there’s
something for him to try out. He watches me testing all this stuff and he wants
to participate! I used a bit on my hand and, let me tell you, this cream is no
joke! It seriously softened and left no greasy residue. The fragrance is
delightful. A lot of men’s skincare products have that heavy forest/musk aroma.
This does not. It smells a little woodsy, but mainly I picked up thyme. It’s
really nice. If they haven’t already, they should bottle that smell and sell it
to men. I’d much prefer this scent to most colognes.
First… can we talk value? Based on quantity,
these five samples have a value of $103.36. This subscription only costs $10 a
month, and shipping is free. I couldn’t believe the price when I saw it.
Quality-wise, I can certainly understand
Sisley’s prices. I have nice skin for my age, but those tiny lines that have
plagued me are gone after only five days. I want more and am willing to pay for
the results I see.This may be the best subscription out there. If you care about your skin as much as I do, this is well worth a measly $10 a month. The only downside is… you will want to pay full-price for these products once you’ve used them, and that’s sorta the point, right?
