A spa-brand body cream for skin that has lost its tone
Thalgo Défi Fermeté Crème Performance Fermeté is a body cream for slack, less toned skin on the thighs, arms and stomach. Its Sculpt Active technology combines two forms of organic silicon (methylsilanol mannuronate and methylsilanol hydroxyproline aspartate), which help restructure and tighten the skin, with a marine plankton extract and caproyl phytosphingosine to support firmness. Shea butter and squalane nourish, so skin feels soft and supple as well as firmer. Used daily with the brand's massage movements, the silhouette looks smoother and more sculpted.
The texture
A rich but fast-absorbing cream that is easy to spread over large areas. It gives a light tightening feel as it dries and leaves the skin soft, without a sticky film. It has Thalgo's fresh, clean scent.
Who it suits
- Skin that has lost firmness after weight loss or pregnancy
- Thighs, arms, stomach and knees that look less toned
- Anyone who wants a firming step in a daily body routine
- Mature skin that also needs nourishment
Worth knowing before you buy: the formula contains fragrance and silicones, and beeswax, so it is not vegan. Results depend on regular use, twice a day for several weeks, with the massage movements.
How long one tube lasts
Applied once a day to thighs, stomach and arms, the 200ml tube lasts about five to six weeks; twice-daily use brings that down to around three weeks.
