Beautiful and healthy skin through the use of pure, ancient Chinese herbal ingredients perfected by the most advanced French dermatological technology.

Paraben preservatives-free

Petrochemical-free
Why? Petrochemicals derived from petroleum, blocks pores and interferes with the skin's ability to eliminate toxins, promoting acne and other skin disorders. Petroleum is commonly used because of its' low costs.

Propylene-glycol-free
Why? Propylene glycol (PG), the standard extraction solvent for most plant extracts is a petroleum derivative.This synthetic solvent has been known to cause numerous allergic reactions.

Chemical color and fragrance-free
Why? Synthetic colors are made from coal tar and contain heavy metals. Fragrance is the most irritating factor in skincare. Synthetic fragrance on a label may indicate the presence of up to four thousand separate ingredients. Both contribute to skin sensitivity and irritation.

Cruelty-free
Why? We don't test on animals, people use our products, not animals.

Welcome to pur~lisse! The pur~lisse promise is simple: preserve youth, protect beauty, prevent aging.

As a working actress, my sensitive skin was subjected to the damaging effects of bright lights and heavy makeup. Products that I had used before irritated my skin even more, making it hard to find effective products that were gentle on my delicate skin. What began as a personal quest to keep my own skin pure and smooth has transformed into pur~lisse.

pur~lisse , meaning pure and smooth in French, marries time-tested Chinese beauty rituals with modern French skincare technology. Using a unique, patent-pending Lotus Lupine complex that blends Blue Lotus and White Tea, pur~lisse offers superior age prevention and skin-soothing products without harsh ingredients such as parabens, petrochemicals, synthetic color/fragrance or animal by-products.

I believe a beauty regimen should be simple, functional and most importantly effective. This is reflected in our easy-to-use, travel-friendly packaging and as well as in the ingredients that we do and do not include. Innovation is also a top priority, as pur~lisse is the first skincare line to use a blend of Blue Lotus and White Tea.

pur~lisse is the result of my passion for beauty, inspiration from my heritage and love for innovation.

Since using pur~lisse, I love my skin again. I have seen the vitality and renewed radiance in my complexion return, and I am confident you will too.

I hope you enjoy pur~lisse as much as I enjoyed creating it.

Sincerely,
Jennifer Yen
