More than 15 years ago, Phytomer discovered the powerful anti-pollution action of Ameria maritima, the only seaside plant that survived the Erika oil tanker disaster, which is capable of filtering and depolluting contaminated water.

Now, it has debuted its latest Citylife skincare line, which sweeps away toxic microparticles and repairs skin damage caused by pollution. Citylife has a sorbet-like texture and a high-tech formulation composed of Citysafe complex – a trio of anti-pollution biotech marine sugars – and Oligomer, Phytomer’s exclusive concentrate of partially desalinated seawater, which provides mineral replenishment to the skin.

This anti-fatigue action is also reinforced by the draining and decongesting effect of the red algae Palmaria Palmata, and the blue microalgae Eternelle Marine, which has exceptional antioxidant properties.

Also suitable for the eye contour, Citylife re-oxygenates tired eyes while it diffuses mineral water into dehydrated skin.

“Citylife helps the skin to catch its breath with an overall treatment against the damages of pollution,” says Mathilde Gedouin-Lagarde, marketing and communication director for Phytomer. “Being experts in skin-depolluting for 20 years, we are the only ones who have simultaneously tackled dehydration, dark spots and signs of fatigue, by using a trio of biotech marine sugars. As for its super-fresh sorbet texture, designed for both the face and eye contour area, it is to die for!”
