We all know how beneficial exfoliating our skin can be, especially when the product contains resurfacing ingredients like AHAS (alpha-hydroxy acids) and gentle PHA’s (polyhydroxy acids). The new serum-essence from French skincare brand Olivier Midy does exactly this, combining these power ingredients with additional lactic and mandelic acid to enhance radiance, and boost elasticity and firmness. Plus, for those who experience hyperpigmentation, the essence includes niacinamide to help smooth skin and a vegan peptide which promises to boost collagen production by 40%. Safe to use morning and night, the serum-essence hybrid hydrates and brightens the skin's surface." Alicia Lansom, Beauty Editor

“I was recently introduced to Olivier Midy, a luxury skincare brand born out of a famous French Pharmacy. To say I’m extremely impressed with the entire line would be an understatement. The naturally-sourced, highly active ingredients are incredibly efficacious, leaving my skin feeling hydrated and looking bright. The brand is famous for their face oil (it’s incredible), but the newly launched Lait Midy, an oil-to-milk cleanser, is my personal favorite. It completely takes off all my makeup and leaves my skin feeling soft and supple.” - Samantha Holender, Beauty Editor

"If you saw last weeks debut issue of Wondercade, you read my groomer Amy Komorowski's fall skin tips. Years ago she turned me on to facial oils, I've been subjecting my moneymaker to them ever since. A few weeks ago I've subjected my skin to Olivier Midy's, and my skin has never been dewier. Dew try it." - Neil Patrick Harris, Wondercade
