La Prairie anti-aging antidote
It's a new trend, to use oils, but having a combination skin i was not very attracted to this, so i decided to try a very good one, La Prairie Ice Crystal Dry Oil for 3 weeks before i tall about it, in my blog.
The brands tell's us, what results we can expect to achieve by the use of this creams, but I'll just say those that I felt.
The skin became more smooth, without being oily, any problem from a mosquito bite or a small imperfection disappears after 3 days or gets healed and brighter. I love it at night, when i remove all the makeup and dirt, just warmed up on my fingers, applied with a gentle massage.
About this new La Prairie line...
With 35 years expertise in anti-ageing La Prairie, just launch a rich cream and dry oil, both of which contain a rare cocktail of extracts that promise to turn back the clock.
There are three key ingredients to the formula: purple saxifrage, soldanella alpina and Swiss snow algae. Each of them thrives and survives at the highest altitudes of the Swiss Alps, and they keep growing even through the snow and ice. This inspired La Prairie’s research and development team to create the patent-pending Swiss Ice Crystal Complex, which transfers the survival skills of the plants into the skin, by making the skin cells more resilient, and more resistant to external and internal stressors: climate extremes, pollution, constant travel, lack of sleep, anxiety. Plucked from the peak of the Swiss Alps, purple saxifrage withstands extreme conditions by shielding its purple petals with tiny ice crystals; soldanella alpine is able to stay dormant under the ice and then surge up to the surface and bloom come spring; and stunning red snow algae can flourish as a blanket of crimson that can only be seen as the ice begins to melt.
According to La Prairie researchers, the unique blend protects skin's mitochondrial DNA (the energy source of cells) as well as speeds up rejuvenation, boosts inherent hydration and halts collagen degradation. And their internal invitro testing showed never-before-seen anti-aging results for all of the above.
As Dr. Daniel Stangl (Director of innovation) states, “I’ve been with the brand since 1993 – through 20 years of ground breaking, innovative launches – and the new Cellular Swiss Ice Crystal products are among the most exciting products we’ve developed. To be able to capture the youth-protecting properties and adaptive nature of the three survivalist plants – deemed the Swiss Ice Crystal Complex – and combine those with revolutionary technologies of modern skincare is exceptional. In essence, the Swiss Ice Crystal Complex helps skin outwit daily aging assaults from the environment – an incredible achievement.”
La Prairie Global Brand President Lynne Florio added: “When it comes to the development of new products for La Prairie, no cost is spared, no research left undone, no frontier is left unexplored in our quest for agelessness. Our clients pay a premium for the best in their skincare, and they expect the highest level of performance. We aim to exceed their expectations, and I am confident we have done so with the Cellular Swiss Ice Crystal duo.”
Cellular Swiss Ice Crystal Cream (an oil-in-water gel-cream) is described as a nourishing daily moisturiser. The formulation also includes a Tissue Guidance Matrix and two plant cell extracts based on stem cell technology to assist with skin renewal; hyaluronic acid; and light-reflecting agents.
Cellular Swiss Ice Crystal Dry Oil is weightless dry oil that strengthens and fortifies skin to prevent moisture loss and keep skin supple, emitting a non-oily, natural, healthy glow.
