Frequently Asked Questions
Where does it sit in the routine?
First, on cleansed skin, before any serum. Valmont positions it as a pre-serum that prepares the skin for everything applied after it.
Is it a toner or a serum?
Neither, strictly. It is an essence — a jellified water with the lightness of a lotion and the concentration of a treatment. It does not replace your serum, it goes underneath it.
How is it different from Sérum Merveilleux?
Fluide Merveilleux is the lightest step, absorbed in seconds, and works mainly on radiance and the refinement of the skin's texture. Sérum Merveilleux is richer, a lamellar emulsion, and adds firmness and smoothing to that radiance.
How should it be applied?
Tap and lightly smooth over the whole face and neck. It absorbs almost immediately, so you can move on to the next step without waiting.
Does it only work with the Merveilleux products?
No. It is designed to open any Valmont routine and sits comfortably under the V-Firm or V-Lift serums as well.
