When you think of icons, you might think of people like Marilyn Monroe, Mariah Carey or even Taylor Swift. When we think of icons, we think of Natura Bissé. Since 1979, the Barcelona-born brand has epitomized luxury beauty, with incredibly efficacious, concentrated formulas that blend rare and highly sought-after ingredients, cutting-edge technology, and exquisite sensorial textures. It all began when their founder, Ricardo Fisas, noticed a factory worker who handled amino acids happened to have soft hands — remarkably so. The rest, as they say, is history.
Today, Natura Bissé (by way of the best aestheticians in the industry) performs over 7.5 million treatments around the world every year, has created more than 150 skin care products, and is still run by the Fisas family. It would be an understatement to say choosing our favorites was no easy task — but we narrowed it down to seven of their most iconic formulas.
1. Natura Bissé Diamond White Rich Luxury Cleanser (7 oz.)
This silky, gentle cleanser has a three-phase texture, beginning as a gel before turning into an oil, and finally to an emulsion while deeply hydrating and imparting a natural-looking radiance, thanks to vitamins E and F, and skin-brightening pomegranate extract.
2. Natura Bissé Diamond Extreme Rich Texture Cream 50ml
A luxurious moisturizer with a rich, indulgent texture, this skin-firming, invigorating cream is a part of their groundbreaking Diamond Collection, helping to smooth, hydrate and bestow radiance.
Imparting a soothing lavender aroma, the formula is powered by a Smart Energy Complex, working to brighten and defend the skin barrier function. Mastic crystal tear oil and Peptixyl ProYouth work synergistically to sculpt the appearance of the facial contour, while niacinamide encourages a supple finish. Lending a plumping effect, the cream leaves the skin feeling deeply nourished.
3. Natura Bissé Diamond Extreme Serum 40ml
This energizing serum is formulated to complement the skin's natural cycles of rebalancing during the day and replenishing at night — a comprehensive anti-aging action that helps to reveal a flawless, younger-looking complexion. Powered by their innovative Smart Energy Complex, featuring Artemia salina, which is obtained from plankton and peony root extract to help revive the appearance of your skin, and Chrono Skin, which is designed to complement the skin's rhythms and preserve a radiant complexion.
4. Natura Bissé Diamond Cocoon Sheer Eye (0.08 oz.)
This lightweight, luxurious eye cream is formulated with a powerful combination of hyaluronic acid and water lily extract to reduce uneven pigmentation, dark circles and puffiness while the inclusion of natural pigments allows it to adapt to all skin tones and deliver luminescent coverage to boost a brighter and revitalized eye area. It’s designed to help reduce the appearance of premature signs of aging caused by environmental aggressors, blue light from digital devices and stress.
5. Natura Bissé Diamond Luminous UV Defense Light Tinted Fluid SPF40 30ml
We love anything that does double duty in our routine, and this broad-spectrum sunscreen combines SPF, skin care and a touch of color in one skin-rejuvenating formula. Formulated with 100% mineral filters, it helps minimize the appearance of dark spots, lines, and wrinkles while helping to firm the skin and imparts an adaptable touch of color to blur imperfections and provide subtle coverage.
6. Natura Bissé Inhibit Tensolift Neck Cream (1.7 oz.)
Powered by micropeptides, collagen and elastin amino acids, this rich cream works to minimize signs of aging, vertical lines and sagginess on the neck and décolleté area. One of our go-to neck treatments, it helps hydrate and make fragile skin appear tighter, firmer, plumper and more even in tone. It even addresses the dreaded tech neck, caused by frequently looking down at our screens.
7. Natura Bissé Diamond Extreme Oil (1 fl. oz.)
Aptly named, since it's our new best friend for topping off our nighttime routine, the Diamond Extreme Oil provides balanced hydration to reveal a softer and suppler-looking complexion. It manages to be both rich and lightweight, and combines a potent blend of nourishing oils, punicic acid and vitamins that renew and firm your skin while you sleep.
