Yon-Ka Lotion: The Secret Behind Emily’s Signature Glow
In Season 5 of Emily in Paris, radiant, natural skin remained at the heart of Emily Cooper’s beauty look — and Yon-Ka Paris played a key role behind the scenes. Our best-selling Lotion Yon-Ka was used by the show’s makeup team to prep and perfect the skin before makeup, reinforcing its status as a professional favorite in film and beauty alike.
Featured in an exclusive People interview, Aurélie Payen, Head of Makeup for Emily in Paris, highlighted why this product became a set essential.
“I generally love prepping the skin before makeup with a mist, and I especially enjoyed working with the Yon-Ka Lotion. It provides the skin with a boost of hydration, leaving the complexion luminous, refreshed, and perfectly ready for makeup.”
This moment underscores what professionals have trusted for decades: great makeup starts with great skincare.
Why Makeup Artists Love Yon-Ka Lotion
More than a toner, Lotion Yon-Ka (Phyto-Aromatic Treatment Mist) is a multi-action skincare step designed to prepare, hydrate, and revitalize the skin. On set — where lighting, heat, and long shooting days can take a toll — it helps maintain a fresh, dewy finish.
Key benefits include:
-
Deep hydration for plump, balanced skin
-
Skin preparation that improves makeup application
-
Instant refresh throughout the day
-
Enhanced radiance for a natural glow
These qualities make it a go-to product not only for professionals, but also for anyone seeking camera-ready skin in real life.
