Clean, effective ingredients — backed by science

Our in-house chemists are continuously refining and optimizing our portfolio of natural and man-made ingredients.

Activated Charcoal

Charcoal aids in detoxifying the skin by capturing micro-pollutants and impurities at its surface. Skin is purified, and pores appear tight and refined.

Volcanic Sand & Bamboo

Natural physical exfoliators, these powerful yet gentle ingredients help to polish the surface of the skin. Skin texture appears more refined, pores appear reduced and skin is brighter overall.

Papaya & Pineapple Enzymes

This natural powerhouse combo helps to loosen and remove expired skin cells. Additionally, it helps to diminish the appearance of dark spots, naturally balances pH, and refines pores to reveal smoother, softer, and more radiant looking skin.

AHA & BHA Complex

Boasting a 7.5% concentration of AHA and 0.05% BHA, this chemical exfoliating acid complex featuring Glycolic, Lactic, Salicylic, works to break down expired skin cells, cleans out and refines pores while also providing hydration revealing newer, more glowing skin.

How to use

  1. Cleanse skin
  2. On damp skin and using gentle pressure, massage a dime-size amount of Essence Noir™ Polish over the face (in circular motions) taking care to avoid the orbital eye area.
  3. Rinse and follow with your favorite treatment product.

PRO TIP: Leave on for 2-3 minutes to get enhanced treatment benefits (it will act as a mild chemical peel).

Best face cream I have ever used.

It sinks right in and is not oily or greasy. No serum needed, and a little goes a long way. It’s the pure stuff, not watered down.

Abigail T.

These skincare products are in a league of their own! Outstanding!

Joshua A.

Great, concentrated little goes a long way.

I love the moisturizer

I love the smell and the feel of my skin. It’s been 3 weeks so I hope I look like I’m 30 in 3 weeks. Truth be told. The texture of my skin at 3 weeks in does feel softer. I’m 58. So just being honest.

Beautiful eye balm

I’m loving this eye balm. It’s very thick so a little goes a long way.
I’ve only been using it for about a week and the skin around my eyes already looks brighter and smoother

Fabulous!

I enjoy the feeling of applying Baumé Noir to my face before going to bed. The cream is rich, soothing and healthy for my skin!

So glad I tried

I have used the Baume Noir moisturizer, and Polish since March 2025. I have reordered and added the oil. I am 61 and have taken good care of my skin, using quality products. . I could not be more pleased with all three of these products. A little goes a long way. The moisturizer works well under makeup and although thick is not greasy or oily. I have combination skin. The Polish is fabulous leaves your skin smooth and fresh. Highly recommend leaving it on a bit as noted. Results? I think my skin looks better, firmer, and fine lines are less noticeable. 10 of 10 recommend.

Perfectly yet gently exfoliates and minimizes pores

I am so impressed with this product. It gently exfoliates yet it minimizes pores and makes my skin feel so clean and refreshed while still feeling soft and moisturized. I love all the NANNETTE de GASPÉ products but was particularly impressed how gentle this is yet so effective.

Powerful and effective polish

This is the most effective polish I have used. If you have sensitive skin as I do, use sparingly and space it out every couple of days. My skin feels soft and supple after using it. I strongly recommend this polish.
