The Science Of The Ritual

The Ultimate Facial Ritual: A Step-by-Step Guide to Radiant, Age-Defying Skin. Featuring Powerful Actives, Precision Tools, and a Spa-Like Experience at Home.

At Crème Du Loch, we believe your skincare ritual should be both indulgent and intelligent—powered by clinically-proven ingredients, luxurious textures, and tools designed to elevate every moment. With our Age-Defying skincare trio—the Daily Serum, Eye Concentrate, and Moisturiser—alongside our Spa Cleansing Cloth and Mini Spatula & Massager, you’re not just caring for your skin; you’re treating it to a science-backed transformation.

Step 1: Cleanse & Prep – The Spa-Grade Foundation

Tool: Spa Cleansing Cloth

Begin your ritual with our Spa Cleansing Cloth, designed to retain warmth and deliver a deep, gentle cleanse. The soft towelling fibres open pores when used with warm water, allowing your skin to absorb active ingredients more effectively. Perfect for use with your preferred cleansing balm or cleanser, this step removes impurities, pollutants, and prepares your skin to fully benefit from what follows.

How to Use: Soak in warm water and gently press onto the face for 5–10 seconds to open pores. Sweep across the face to remove product and debris. Pat dry.

Step 2: Treat with Serum – High-Tech, Deep-Delivering Actives

Product: Age-Defying Daily Serum

Our Daily Serum is a potent blend of next-generation actives and natural Scottish elements. Powered by:

• PeptAIde™ 4.0 – AI-discovered peptides that combat silent inflammation and boost firmness

• Matrixyl™ 3000 – A matrikine complex that triggers collagen production and cellular repair

• Dragosine® – A protective antioxidant that shields skin from UV, IR, and blue light while stimulating collagen

• Quicklift® – A natural sugar polymer that delivers an instant tightening effect

• Kelp Extract – Rich in minerals and antioxidants, it firms, heals, detoxifies and protects the skin

This lightweight yet powerful serum visibly reduces fine lines, tightens pores, evens tone, and deeply hydrates.

How to Use: After cleansing, apply a few drops directly onto the skin with the pipette, then using clean fingertips and gently circle into the skin using, patting motions. Focus on areas showing signs of ageing.

Step 3: Revitalise the Eye Area – Precision Care Where It Matters Most

Product: Age-Defying Daily Eye Concentrate

Our Eye Concentrate is scientifically formulated to treat the delicate eye area with maximum efficacy and minimal irritation. It includes:

• Quicklift® – For instant skin tightening

• Biophytex™ – Boosts microcirculation, reduces redness, and diminishes dark circles

• Shadownyl™ – Clinically proven to reduce under-eye dark circles and fine lines

• Lipobelle™ – A soy-derived collagen booster that visibly lifts and re-densifies the skin

• Kelp Extract – Delivers hydration, antioxidant protection, and elasticity support

Handy Tool: Mini Spatula & Massager

Use the gold-plated Mini Spatula with the ball massager end to gently glide around the orbital bone—stimulating microcirculation, reducing puffiness, and refreshing tired eyes.

How to Use: Dot product around the eye contour using the spatula. Use the massager in light motions from the inner to outer corner of the eyes.

Step 4: "Loch in" Moisture & Nourish

Product: Age-Defying Daily Moisturiser

Our rich yet fast-absorbing Moisturiser is a multi-award-winning crème that seals in hydration while continuing to fight visible signs of ageing throughout the day. Key ingredients include:

• Retinol – Boosts cell turnover, reduces wrinkles, and improves skin texture

• Kelp Extract – Detoxifies, firms, protects from environmental stressors

• Natural age-defying oils – To restore radiance and moisture

Tool: Mini Spatula & Massager

Use the spatula for a precise, hygienic scoop of product, avoiding contamination and ensuring clean, effective application.

How to Use: Gently circle into the face and neck, followed by using upward strokes. Inhale the refreshing cucumber fragrance and enjoy a moment of calm.

Final Step (Daytime Only): Protect with SPF

Though not part of the Age-Defying Ritual, applying broad-spectrum SPF 30+ every morning is essential—especially when using powerful actives like Retinol and peptides. UV exposure can reverse progress and accelerate ageing.
