Le Mieux is a brand I feel is vastly underrated. They specialize in products that have regenerative formulations for post procedure plus anti-inflammatory solutions. I've already tried round one of products and I was happy to play with more. This was supposed to be two seperate posts but I have combined into one. I posted about a set of these on Instagram a while back but I wanted to kind of go over all of the products I've tried as I do get asked about them a lot. In general I feel the brand is pretty affordable for a clinical style brand. Perfect Renewal is an acid peel/acid toner/peel pad whatever you would like to call it. This has 10% mandelic acid (great for pigmentation, gentle AHA, well tolerated for sensitive skin), apple fruit water (hydrating), hyaluronic acid (hydrating), licorice (soothing, brightening), beta glucan (soothing, hydrating), allantoin (soothing), alpha-arbutin (brightening, anti-pigmentation), sodium pca (hydrating, soothing) and niacinamide (multitasker). Really a nice well rounded acid product. You pour the liquid solution on the dry pads in the container then they're ready for use. I found it effective yet gentle.
Ingredients
Pyrus Malus (Apple) Fruit Water, Hyaluronic Acid, Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Root Extract, Methyl Gluceth-20, Beta Glucan, Allantoin, Mandelic Acid, Alpha-Arbutin, Sodium Lactate, Sodium PCA, Xanthan Gum, Glycine, Fructose, Niacinamide (Vitamin B3), Brown Sugar Extract, Glucose, Glucose Oxidase, Lactoperoxidase.
TGF-β Booster is a cult classic from the brand. It's a growth factor serum to firm, tighten and plump. It has multiple forms of hyaluronic acid, ceramides, amino acids, fermented minerals, peptides, growth factors, phospholipids and glycoproteins. The texture is a creamy gel serum, it layers well. The scent isn't anything I remember being memorable so it was small or insignificant. This is great for hydrating, firming and really adding a nice overall anti-aging bonus to the skin. It's pretty affordable for a peptide/growth factor serum so I see why it's a cult classic. I would totally buy it again. It did what it said it would do.

BIO CELL+ Mask & TGF-β Eye Firming Mask are really nice. I'm not a huge sheet mask fan but I do love eye patches and their biocellulose mask. The eye patches have peptides, algae extracts, white tea, hyaluronic acid plus a micro delivery system to firm and brighten. Really nice eye patches. The face mask is biocellulose with white tea, collagen, peptides, vitamin C panthenol, skullcap, licorice, algae, urea, glucosamine, allantoin and mulberry extract. It has no scent besides the lavender water. I really enjoyed this one. Plus you get 4 for $30 which for biocellulose is pretty affordable. This one is soothing and hydrating plus it stays in place.

The best product of the line is the ISO-Cell Recovery Solution. This mist is more than just a mist. It soothes and calms helping with redness, rosacea and inflammation. It has minerals, amino acids and sodium pca. It's also fragrance and alcohol free. A 6 oz bottle is only $28 so it's a really affordable mist I think everyone should try. I will forever repurchase to have one on hand at all times.

Sheer Hydration is a lightweight emulsion. Very light lotion texture wise. It has rice brand water, aloe hyaluronic acid, chamomile and cucumber extracts, soothing bisabolol and allantoin, jojoba, safflower, grape and sweet almond oils. It simple and fragrance free. Great for sensitive skin or combo to oily skin. Definitely not enough for dry skin. I have drier skin so I ended up using it as a hand cream. It makes the best day weight hand cream ever. So light and your hands never feel greasy. Not the purpose it was intended for, but I did use it all up happily.

Stemcell EGF is their ampoule serum with Alpine rose stem cells, growth factors and peptides. It has a proprietary mitochondrial peptide and uses TST (transdermal sonication technology) for deeper absorption. I feel it's their powerhouse anti-aging serum. In addition to the power house peptides and ingredients it has hydrators/soothers beta glucan, hyaluronic acid, phospholipids, glycerin, urea, aloe, allantoin, trehalose and panthenol plus antioxidants like superoxide dismutase, resveratrol and glutathione. It has a 3 bottle system and each bottle lasted about a month with daily use, would be six weeks with twice daily use. The texture was light and gel serum like, hydrating. Nice texture. No scent really. That's one of the things I really like about their products, the low to no scent makes them perfect for everyone especially sensitive, rosacea or post procedure skin. This serum does a great job hydrating, firming and helping reduce wrinkles/lines. It's more powerful than the EGF-β Booster but also twice as expensive. I think you can make due with EGF-β Booster just fine, but the Le Mieux or growth factor fan with love this.

You've seen me mention the Eye Wrinkle Corrector I'm sure many times on Instagram. This lightweight gel cream is so spectacular for the price. It's actually one of my all time favorites from the brand. For the $45 price it's quite superb. It has peptides, butters, beta glucan, hyaluronic acid, ginseng, white/green tea, superoxide dismutase, phospholipids, camellia oil, glycosaminoglycans plus Hesperidin Methyl Chalcone and Ptychopetalum Olacoides Bark for dark circles. I find it really firming and refreshing. It's light and never feels heavy or greasy so it will suit many. For the price I don't think you'll find many eye creams that can come close. I find it hydrating and it blurs a little texture wise. Makeup goes on so well after. I like it best as a day cream. Overall it's best for wrinkles and plumping fine lines overall with some elasticity improvements. Some may notice help with dark circles but mine are so hereditary/lifestyle that nothing really touches them. I most definitely recommend.

My must haves so far from Le Mieux are the EGF-β Booster, Eye Wrinkle Corrector, ISO-Cell Recovery Solution and both the eye patches and biocellulose mask if you like those kinds of products.
