Across millennia, the Black Bee has succeeded in adapting to its environment thanks to its unique morphological characteristics, including its dark colour and resilience. These attributes allow it to produce honeys of the highest quality. Currently endangered, just a few of the world’s colonies survive which Guerlain research has managed to identify.
Just 18 km off the coast of Brittany, Ouessant Island, a UNESCO reserve, is a remote ecosystem. Endemic to the island, the Black Bee produces honey with exceptional properties benefiting from an abundance of amino acids, polyphenols and trace elements. Guerlain research has demonstrated that this honey helps to stimulate a marker of skin renewal by 50%¹.
¹In vitro test on ingredient.
The patented¹ Face-Taping technology combines pro-elasticity and filmogenic dermoactive ingredients, thanks to which surface tensions are doubled² for an overnight lift effect.

These high-rescue active ingredients help target skin radiance and vitality.
A more stable derivative than vitamin C, Vitamin Cg—known for its brightening properties—helps revive radiance and visibly correct signs of fatigue. Hyaluronic acid provides intense hydration and helps plump the skin to smooth facial features.
Caffeine, with its toning properties, helps reduce visible signs of fatigue.
1. To reduce forehead and frown lines
Alternating the right and left thumbs, sweep the fingertips over skin in a small upward movement, moving up from the area between the eyebrows to the hairline.
2. To reduce dark circles and wrinkles in the eye contour
Going from the inner corner of the eye to the temple, use the pads of two or three fingers to make “gliding walking” movements over the surface of the dark circle.
For crow’s feet and nasolabial folds, this time use the pads of three fingers to make “gliding walking” movements perpendicular to the wrinkles, as if the fingers were trying to widen the wrinkle to blur it.
3. To drain the area
Placing the index finger on the browbone and the middle finger on the lower eyelid, smooth the eye contour area, making horizontal movements in an outward direction.
Since 2007, Guerlain is committed to preserving biodiversity, innovating sustainably, acting for the climate and creating a positive social impact. Above all, we seek to protect one of Nature’s most precious wonders: bees.
DiscoverOff the coast of France, Ouessant Island is a natural reserve where a pure and protected species, the Black Bee lives. It produces a honey with exceptional properties. To protect this precious bee, Guerlain is the patron of the Brittany Black Bee Conservation Association, which ensures its development and protection.
