WHAT IT IS:
For the first time, Orchidée Impériale Longevity Concentrate reactivates cellular functions. Skin feels replenished from within.* The culmination of 20 years' research, Guerlain has captured the exceptional power of the Vanda coerulea orchid. Capable of living for more than one hundred years, its vital force has been concentrated in the patent-filed** Orchid Longevity technology.
SKIN TYPE:
For all skin types.
SKIN CONCERN:
Longevity.
WHAT IT DOES:
Cellular mechanisms called "longevity pathways" weaken over time. After 20 years of research, Guerlain has demonstrated its ability to target a key marker: MAMs, dynamic connections at the heart of nine of these pathways.***
For the first time encapsulated in liposome vectors, Orchid Longevity technology has been augmented by a Phagoactive, making it possible to target a tenth longevity pathway: mitophagy, the process of recycling damaged mitochondria.****
Anticipating cells' needs, it helps to increase the mitochondria's defense capabilities by 20%**** to prevent damage and helps to reactivate their renewal by 21%**** when they have deteriorated. Cell vitality is revived.**** In one month, skin feels denser and firmer.***** Face contours are defined***** and skin feels replenished from within.
KEY INGREDIENTS:
Augmented Orchid Longevity technology is encapsulated within billions of liposomes. Vectorization systems enhance diffusion in skin by up to 67%.****** Enveloped in a lipidic bilayer with a hydrophilic core, these microspheres are designed using a biomimetic approach. They fuse with the skin's lipids, enhancing diffusion and a targeted efficacy of the active ingredients at the core of the epidermis.
HOW TO USE IT:
Orchidée Impériale has been inspired by the Guerlain Spas' comprehensive approach to longevity, supporting a holistic approach to well-being. This collaboration has given rise to the longevity protocol, a series of massage techniques developed by the Maison's expert facialists, conducive to visibly improving skin.
Sensory Application:
- Shape: Hands crossed, drain the jawline with your thumbs through firm yet fluid motions, promoting radiance and sculpting contour points.
