WHAT IT IS:
La Prairie's first barrier-repairing essence. The activating first step to restore balance and prime the skin barrier for stronger, more receptive skin.
SKIN TYPE:
Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.
SKIN CONCERN:
Barrier repair.
WHAT IT DOES:
More than a first step, Swiss Pristine Essence is the foundation of healthy-looking skin. A watery, revitalizing essence inspired by the purity of Swiss glaciers, with a featherlight texture that absorbs instantly into the skin.
Powered by La Prairie's Exclusive Cellular Complex™, Hypower LP52™ and Swiss Glacial Minerals, Swiss Pristine Essence helps rebalance and restore the skin barrier while priming and preparing the skin for better absorption of the subsequent routine. Upon application, skin feels immediately soothed, balanced and primed, with a smoother texture. With continued use, the barrier is strengthened, hydration is stabilized, pores appear refined, tone looks more even and overall resilience is enhanced.
This repair face essence is housed in a decorated glass bottle, using a technique that creates a naturally formed crackle, making each piece unique. The bottle is finished with a polished silver-tone cap.
KEY INGREDIENTS:
A multi-patented* skin-barrier repair technology powered by:
- Swiss Glacial Minerals: Untouched for millennia and infused through the passage within Swiss glaciers, calcium, magnesium and potassium are preserved using an advanced encapsulation technology. They are released with precision to help repair and reinforce the skin's natural defenses.
- Hypower LP52™: Developed in collaboration with two leading Swiss universities, Hypower LP52™ is a proprietary ingredient tested under extreme stress conditions. Through a controlled fragmentation process, the nutrient-rich core of a resilient micro-organism is unlocked, delivering a concentrated boost of nutrients to strengthen the skin's cellular resilience.
- Exclusive Cellular Complex™: La Prairie's signature complex helps protect against external stressors, energizes natural repair and renewal processes and enhances the skin's resilience.
HOW TO USE IT:
- Apply essence morning and evening after cleansing and toning.
- Gently smooth essence over the face and neck, avoiding the eye area. Continue with a gentle patting motion until the product is completely absorbed.
- Follow with Swiss Pristine Serum and Swiss Pristine Cream (both sold separately).
- Warning: For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. If product gets into eyes, rinse thoroughly with water. Discontinue use if signs of irritation appear. Keep out of reach of children. Do not use on children.
CLINICAL RESULTS:
Clinically proven to balance and prime the skin for a visibly healthy-looking skin and to repair and strengthen the skin barrier. Tested on sensitive skin.
