The Cannes film festival hectic schedule can bring a lot of stress, which of course shows on your skin… unless you take care of it and perhaps know about Codage, a very exclusive French skincare label which specialises in tailor made cosmetics to fulfill one’s skin special needs. Following a diagnostic online or in-store, one can get skincare with its unique formula, labeled with its initials. Codage also offers its customers the possibility to order a sample size formula before committing to buy the finalised product.
Codage also has a range of “ready-to-wear” skincare, for customers in a hurry, the ones who would grab those beauty essentials for a quick beauty fix between one too numerous appointments at the Festival.
Codage teamed up with French magazine Gala to create “L’Essentiel du Festivalier” an exclusive box set with sample sized products for the 3 essentials steps to an efficient beauty routine :SERUM N°3 (FACE SERUM RADIANCE & ENERGY), CODAGE JOUR (PROTECTIVE CREAM ENERGIZING & ANTI-OXIDANT), CODAGE NUIT (NUTRITIVE CREAM REGENERATING & DETOXIFYING).
To make your skin ready for the red carpet appearance, head to Shop 17 (17 bd de la Croisette – cannes ) to browse through the range, order your customised routine or get one of the 250 ” L’Essentiel du Festivalier ” gift packs (day cream, night cream and serum).
Shop 17 is Cannes’ number 1 concept store… Based in the former Jean-Paul Gaultier boutique, Shop 17 stocks a variety of luxury goods, from the exclusive skincare Codage, which we fell in love with, as well as a selection of art books, design objects, and clothes (Jean-Paul Gaulier, Carven, Balmain, Maison Michel, John Richmond…).
The downstairs area is the VIP section with Couture and red carpet designs. Our favourite corner was of course the one dedicated to Alaia whose perfectly tailored clothes are the ultimate complement to fresh glowing skin – an essential combination !
