Everything you need to know about Hermès Plein Air Complexion Balm

Overview

What it is

This product is a complexion balm that provides a light layer of color and protects the skin with mineral sunscreen rated at SPF 30. It integrates a hyaluronic acid complex and botanical extracts such as evening primrose oil and Baikal skullcap to offer hydration and protection against environmental factors.

Key ingredients and their functions

  • Titanium Dioxide - physical sunscreen
  • Sodium Hyaluronate - hydrating agent
  • Oenothera Biennis (Evening Primrose) Seed Extract - skin conditioning agent
  • Scutellaria Baicalensis Root Extract - antioxidant
  • Dimethicone - skin smoothing agent
  • Neopentyl Glycol Diethylhexanoate - emollient
  • Trimethylsiloxysilicate - film-forming agent
  • Glycerin - humectant

How it works

The balm functions as a light makeup layer, using Titanium Dioxide to shelter the skin from UV rays. Sodium Hyaluronate delivers moisture and enhances skin hydration. Evening Primrose Extract aids in conditioning the skin, while Baikal Skullcap Extract offers antioxidant properties, potentially shielding the skin from environmental stressors. Dimethicone smooths skin texture, providing a silk-like finish, and Neopentyl Glycol Diethylhexanoate serves as an emollient to soften the skin. Trimethylsiloxysilicate helps create a breathable film on the skin's surface, maintaining the product's longevity, and Glycerin attracts moisture, increasing skin suppleness.

About the brand

The maison's entry into makeup and skincare, born from the same hands that have shaped its silk, leather, and fragrance for nearly two centuries. Launched in 2020 with the Rouge Hermès lipstick, the line has grown into color, complexion, nail, and skincare, all built around an idea of beauty as craft: refillable cases designed to be kept, palettes drawn from the house's signature spectrum of bright oranges and warm earth tones, and formulas made to feel as considered as they look. Where much of beauty chases the next launch, Hermès treats each piece as an object — durable, refillable, and unmistakably its own. It's beauty in the Hermès language: restrained, tactile, and made to last.
