Biologique Recherche at The Skin Studio
If there is one product that defines Biologique Recherche, it’s Lotion P50. Known as a ‘facial in a bottle’, Lotion P50 has become a cult favourite for skin professionals, beauty editors, and skincare enthusiasts worldwide. At The Skin Studio in Dublin, we are proud to be an authorised Irish stockist of Biologique Recherche, offering the full range of Lotion P50 variants for online ordering in Ireland.
