Institut Esthederm: The New Intensive Retinol Eye Lifting Balm and Retinol+ Oil Serum
Institut Esthederm introduces two new products: a retinol-based eye lifting balm and a serum with pure retinol.
Among the most effective cosmetic ingredients for combating signs of aging, retinol stands out for its extraordinary regenerative and youth-enhancing properties. It stimulates cellular turnover, boosts collagen and elastin production, and improves skin elasticity, helping to reduce wrinkles and fine lines.
Building on these benefits, Institut Esthederm—a premium brand by NAOS dedicated to eco-biology for lasting skin health—has developed the Intensive Retinol line. This range offers fast-acting, targeted solutions for wrinkles and expression lines, even for sensitive skin, thanks to its high tolerability. The existing Intensive Retinol Crème line now expands with two new formulations:
- Intensive Retinol Eye Lifting Balm: designed to firm and lift the eye contour area while visibly reducing wrinkles and expression lines. Its effectiveness comes from a combination of stabilized retinol to boost cell renewal, biomimetic peptides paired with caffeine to reduce puffiness and dark circles, and Caesalpinia Spinosa glycopolymers for an instant lifting effect. Together, these ingredients leave the eye area firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking.
- Intensive Retinol+ Oil Serum: an upgraded formula of the previous oil serum, this version is even more effective and tolerable. With 0.3% pure retinol and nourishing ingredients like Limnanthes seed oil, apricot oil, and certified organic papyrus oil, this dry oil works on wrinkles, restoring density and softness to the skin. It also evens and firms the complexion for a visibly younger and more radiant appearance.

Byredo Celebrates the Year of the Snake with Artist Wei Yijuan
For the Year of the Snake, Byredo celebrates the warmth of homecoming and reunions, as well as the profound sense of belonging and creative inspiration that can be found through shared moments at home.
The campaign embarks on a journey home with artist Wei Yijuan. Leaving her base in the bustling cosmopolitan hub of Xiamen, the painter and photographer travels to her family home in the mountains of Dongping—a small utopia where she regularly hosts gatherings with friends as a retreat from city life.
Wei collaborated with Byredo to create an exclusive pattern for the Year of the Snake. This celebration, which she has cherished since childhood, represents a joyful time to reunite with loved ones and strengthen timeless, immutable bonds. Inspired by the fluid and organic shapes of the natural world, her designs reflect these sentiments.
“My father once told me: ‘We are people with roots; we grow and branch out like a giant tree, but we remain rooted in our hometown—a reminder for the next generation of where we come from.’ Every reunion with my family is an exploration and uncovering of these roots, through which I feel the bonds that connect us.”
Wei Yijuan, Artist
Photographed by Annie Lai, a close friend of Wei and a native of Fujian, the campaign artfully intertwines botanical elements with the sinuous lines of the snake—a symbol of renewal and interconnection—capturing the joy of reunions as Wei welcomes friends for the festivities.
Intimate snapshots document a natural chemistry between creativity, family bonds, and festive traditions.
Time spent in the kitchen with family.
Vibrant paper lanterns adorning the rooftop.
Streamers shared among relatives and friends, lighting up the night in anticipation of tomorrow.
A moment of renewal, where the old becomes new in the space of a single day.
The Byredo Coming Home collection offers a curated selection of items embodying the spirit of togetherness and festive warmth. Iconic favorites such as Blanche and Rose of No Man’s Land evoke familiarity, while Desert Dawn, the latest addition to Byredo’s collection, invites new discoveries. To enhance the home atmosphere, scented candles and incense holders introduce a subtle intrigue into familiar spaces. The woodsy warmth of Tree House evokes hidden childhood hideaways, while Trois Encens inspires moments of calm and quiet reflection.
