Not every Amazon October Prime Day deal is worth your hard-earned coins. I’ve been actively covering Amazon Prime Day deals since 2020, and spent several years working as a shopping-focused beauty editor. One Prime Day skincare deal I simply can’t get enough of is the Embryolisse Lait Crème Concentré.
Loved by Professionals
Before I jump into why this six-in-one product is a solid Prime Day skincare deal and the ultimate winter skin rescuer, I wanted to share that it’s also a must-have product for Lily Collins’ makeup artist Aurélie Payen. As the head makeup artist of Emily in Paris on Netflix, Payen helps Collins and her costars get camera-ready. “Embryolisse Lait Crème Concentré is the ultimate multi-purpose product that suits all skin types, young and old, and is an essential in my kit,” Payen recently told Cosmopolitan.
Why It’s a Valuable Deal
The 2.54 oz. tube of Lait Crème Concentré is discounted to $21.75, a 25% savings off the regular $30 price tag. According to the price comparison site camelcamelcamel, this Amazon skincare deal has steadily sold for around $30 except on Amazon Prime Day last October. Since Prime Day wraps tonight (October 9), I advise anyone interested in adding to their shopping cart and checking out ASAP to avoid losing this impressive Prime Day skincare deal.
Need further motivation to order this expert-approved product before the big Amazon sales event ends tonight? You could spend $16 on the small 1.01 oz tube of Lait Crème Concentré that is only discounted by 5%, a mere 95 cents savings. But that’ll cost you $15.99 an ounce for the small tube versus $8.54 an ounce if you purchase the larger 2.54 oz version featured in this story.
What WH Editors Think
Embryolisse is a French pharmacy staple, and its signature Lait-Crème Concentré is a must-have in my routine, especially during the cold weather season. Here’s a quick breakdown of how to incorporate this skincare essential into your daily routine.
As a face moisturizer and makeup primer
Once the weather dips below 60 degrees Fahrenheit, I whip out this face moisturizer and slather it across my face. While I thoroughly enjoy the light floral aroma, it’s the instant hydration and naturally dewy finish that seal the deal for Lait-Crème Concentré to be integral part of my routine. Regular use makes my face look brighter, feels more supple, and has a soft-glow effect sans makeup.
I also recently incorporated retinol into my routine, and the retinol uglies—aka flaking, redness, and itching—are common issues I’ve dealt with. However, my skin becomes calmer and downright health-looking when I sandwich a thin, even layer of Lait-Crème Concentré below and after applying my retinol. Whenever I don’t use this moisturizer, flaking becomes particularly obvious.
As a makeup lover, I appreciate that this skincare Prime Day deal layers beautifully under my complexion products, including sunscreen, foundation, and setting powder. I also observed my face makeup pills less when I used this moisturizer as a hydrating face primer.
I have relatively reactive skin, which is pretty annoying since a huge part of my job is testing hundreds of new beauty products. Thankfully, I have never dealt with any skin issues using Embryolisse, so I feel confident recommending it to someone with sensitive skin like myself. It’s also incredible for those with mature skin or at least someone concerned about fine lines. The formula’s blend of white nymphaea and hyaluronic acid provides optimal hydration, while sea minerals and seawater plump up my tired skin.
As a hand cream
Frequent hand washing coupled with cold weather and harsh radiators means my palms will quickly dry out. Thankfully, I only need a small pea-sized amount of product to hydrate my hands without a greasy or an overly-sticky feel.
As an after-sun treatment
I grew up in Florida so I’ve had my fair share of sunburns. Plus, my skin always becomes parched after beach days even when I’m not sunburnt, so incorporating this skincare product into my routine is super helpful. My skin instantly soaks the Embryolisse Lait Crème Concentré up the blend of shea butter, soy proteins, and aloe vera up like a tall glass of water.
As a face cleanser and shaving cream alternative
Wait, what? Mhmmm, this inclusive skincare product can be mixed with a little water to help create a gentle, hydrating face wash. You can do the same and apply it as a shaving cream, but I prefer using it without water for more lubrication while running the razor blade against the grain to avoid ingrown hairs.
As a frizzy hair treatment
While not a traditional use, we sometimes need to do our best with what we’ve got handy. I didn’t feel like commuting to the office on the weekend to grab some anti-frizz products from the beauty closet, so I rubbed a tiny drop of this product between my fingers and applied it along my part. Since I have thicker natural hair, my dry strands soaked up the product, and my flyaways disappeared. Perhaps not ideal for someone with fine, thin, or naturally straight hair that becomes greasy quickly, I think it’s a worthwhile hack I’ll continue using on future vacations when suitcase space is valuable.
