10 Self-Care Essentials Sarah Akram, Dior’s Master Aesthetician, Swears By

“Literally, the last beauty product I applied before I came downstairs to take this call with you was the Auteur Definitive Lifting Toner as a last step to lock in my makeup. I don’t have a lot on, just a tinted moisturizer and concealer, but I use that at the end to kind of set everything in because it provides a dewy finish and helps everything last longer. It’s an amazing product, and you can use it in so many different ways.”

If You Like Glowy, Dewy Skin, This Ultra-Luxe Brand Is Your New Secret Weapon

“I always approach luxury beauty with a healthy dose of skepticism. As a beauty editor with years of experience, I can still only count on one hand the number of high-end brands I use and love. While many provide some benefits, I don't always think it's enough to justify an insanely high price tag. In this case, however, I can say that aesthetician-loved brand Auteur is well worth the money.”

FAQ

How does it help prevent and correct pigmentation?

With Bio Bright Peptide and encapsulated Vitamin C, this toner targets pigmentation at every stage - from prevention to visible correction. It inhibits tyrosinase expression, the enzyme responsible for excess melanin production, while reducing existing discoloration. Over time, skin appears brighter, more even, and more luminous.

What is encapsulated Vitamin C, and why is it more effective?

Encapsulation protects Vitamin C from oxidation, preserving its potency until the moment of application. This advanced delivery system ensures deeper penetration, stimulates collagen synthesis, brightens tone, and reduces pigmentation - without the instability or irritation often associated with traditional Vitamin C formulas.

How does it support collagen production?

Bio Bright Peptide and encapsulated Vitamin C work synergistically to stimulate collagen synthesis, helping to restore skin density, improve elasticity, and smooth the look of fine lines and wrinkles. With regular use, skin feels firmer, more supple, and visibly revitalized.

Can the Definitive Lifting Toner be used as a finishing serum?

Yes - the ultra-fine mist makes it exceptionally versatile. Apply after cleansing to prepare skin for serums and creams, or mist over your completed skincare as a finishing serum to lock in hydration, amplify radiance, and deliver an instant lifting sensation. It can be refreshed throughout the day, even over makeup.

How should I use the Definitive Lifting Toner in my daily routine?

Hold the bottle 15–20 cm from your face and mist evenly. Use morning and evening after cleansing, or as needed during the day for a calming hydration boost. For best results, pair with other AUTEUR formulas that target firmness, elasticity, and tone.

Is it suitable for all skin types?

Yes - the formulation is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive, dry, and combination skin. Its non-exfoliating, calming nature makes it ideal for skin that is easily irritated, reactive, or recovering from professional treatments.

What makes the Definitive Lifting Toner different from other toners?

Unlike traditional toners, this is a treatment-strength essence. It delivers active levels of Bio Bright Peptide, encapsulated Vitamin C, multi-molecular hyaluronic acids, probiotics, and antioxidants in a single, non-exfoliating formula. The result is a calming, hydrating, and firming treatment that also helps brighten and protect the skin over time.
