Youthful skin is more than a fleeting desire—it’s a dynamic state of energy and vitality. The N°1 DE CHANEL line, powered by red camellia extract, targets the first stage of senescence (the phenomenon where cells stop dividing, and cellular activity gradually slows until eventually it stops) to preserve skin’s natural radiance. With the unveiling of the Plumping Cream and Massage Accessory, Chanel introduces a new dimension to its iconic skincare collection.
The N°1 DE CHANEL line isn’t just about skincare—it’s a philosophy. With ingredients like red camellia extract and an oligopeptide, these formulations tackle the first signs of aging, restoring the skin’s vitality from within. From the Smoothing Serum to the Restoring and Smoothing Duo, every product in the range is crafted to preserve the essence of youth: Energy, elasticity, and radiance.

Harvested at its open-sky laboratory in Gaujacq, France, the red camellia is the star of Chanel’s skincare innovation. This remarkable flower, known for its longevity, thrives for over 200 years. Through a meticulous three-step extraction process, Chanel Research has harnessed its vitality, creating an active ingredient rich in polyphenols. The result? Skin that appears visibly healthier, more elastic, and radiantly youthful.
