Dior is now promoting its Dior Capture Intensive Essence Lotion ($100 / £71 for 175 ml) as compatible with at-home skincare devices such as LED masks, microcurrent tools and massage tools, a new angle the brand introduced in a 5 October 2026 Instagram post. The lotion is not a brand-new launch. It is the reformulated successor to Dior Capture Totale Intensive Essence Lotion, part of the renamed Dior Capture line, and has been on sale at Sephora US since early September 2026, with the first customer reviews appearing on 8 September.

What's New
The main change is the name and formula. The former "Capture Totale" lotion now sits in the streamlined Dior Capture range. Dior's latest campaign positions it as a prep step for at-home beauty devices. The brand calls the lotion "ideal for use in conjunction with" LED masks, microcurrents or massage tools. One campaign image shows Dior ambassador Charlize Theron holding the lotion alongside Dior Capture Le Serum.
What the Brand Says
According to Dior, the formula contains these key ingredients:
- OX-C Treatment is rich in plant-derived biopolymers. Dior says it optimizes oxygen transport to the skin, "activates oxygen and triples collagen" (in vitro test on ingredient), and visibly rejuvenates skin lacking collagen.
- Metaboline combines a postbiotic ferment with mallow extract from the Dior gardens. The brand says it boosts 10 essential regeneration proteins (in vitro test on Metaboline, separately and together).
- Revitalizing lily extract is also included.
- A patent-pending duo of plumping hyaluronic acids completes the formula. Dior says the lotion deeply hydrates the epidermis for 24 hours (instrumental test, 30 women).
Dior reports these results from a dermatologist's clinical evaluation of 30 people:
- Skin is 27% more visibly radiant immediately.
- Fine lines are 2x less visible after one week. This compares the immediate effect with the effect after 7 days.
- Skin looks 3x more visibly revitalized after one month.
- Used with Dior Capture Le Serum, skin feels 2x more elastic after 7 days (30 people).
How to Use
Dior recommends dispensing a few drops into the palm and applying the lotion morning and night to the face and neck. It comes before Dior Capture Le Serum (from $160 on dior.com US) and Dior Capture Day Creme ($160). For device users, Dior positions the lotion as the base layer before an LED, microcurrent or massage session.
Key Details
On dior.com US, the lotion is described as a "high-performance age-defying correction" for fine lines and radiance. It currently holds a 4.8-star rating from 72 reviews there. The US price is the same at Dior and Sephora.
