Absolution BioCosmétiques

Miomia is thrilled to exclusively launch Absolution in the United States!

Forgive me, but organic is so last year. The latest buzz in beauty and grooming is bespoke: unique, customizable products that suit the mood or state of your skin. Absolution is a luxurious unisex skincare line (that also happens to be certified organic) from Paris. Its sleek, chic look and clean, targeted formulas make Absolution not just a pleasure, but a joy to use.

In short, Absolution offers a modern approach to beauty: a shorter range of products, more simplicity, highly organic/natural formulas that are customizable to your skin’s different moods, which change from morning to night. Absolution’s lineup currently includes a day and night cream, men’s face cream, cleansing toning water/makeup remover, and 4 serums to boost your moisturizer and adapt to your skin’s current mood.

Nightscape by Ulrich Lang New York

Nightscape by Ulrich Lang New York

My dear friend Uli recently dropped off a bottle of his newest potion, Nightscape. The packaging is clean, sophisticated, and quintessentially New York. The outside sleeve presents a twinkling, evening nightscape of our city, photographed by American photographer Matt Licari.

But onto the scent…the scent. Nightscape is warm, rich, and woody. When I asked Uli how he would describe this alluring scent, he smiled and simply replied,”A modern patchouli.” I couldn’t believe it…patchouli? Really? Nightscape took me leaps and bounds beyond the headache-inducing “patches” of my collegiate past, by intertwining notes of bergamot, jasmine, geranium, cedarwood, leather, musk, amber, and tonka bean.

So here you have it: a new patchouli for all. Purchase your own bottle of Nightscape here.
