The skin around your eyes is particularly vulnerable to premature ageing because it’s thinner, more sensitive and has fewer oil glands than the rest of your face, so lines and dryness are real concerns. The eyes are also famed for the ability to express emotions and are a central part of nonverbal communication, so it’s no wonder that beauty brands place importance on the area, offering an array of skincare creations to lift and firm the delicate skin.
La Prairie has always been an eye expert and now with the re-imagined Skin Caviar Eye Lift, eye care is taken to the next level.
Let’s dip into skin science…
The skin is composed of horizontal and vertical elements, the vertical elements being the skin ligaments, which provide a flexible yet strong structure to support and anchor the skin. As we age, ligaments weaken, altering the eye’s shape entirely.
In 2022, La Prairie introduced Skin Caviar Harmony L’Extrait, a breakthrough that centred on skin ligaments. Now the brand has taken that technology a step further to focus on the eyes. Their research shows that in addition to the need for strong ligaments, effective communication between cells and ligaments in the hypodermis is crucial for achieving youthful skin. Adipocyte cells (the fat cells) build ligaments, and in turn, ligaments regulate the generation of new cells – which is what we need to maintain sculpted eye contours. The La Prairie scientists then developed advanced 3D imaging protocols to measure the impact of caviar science on reactivating ligament-to-cell communication, effectively reversing the effects of time.
An eye opener
Thanks to the infusion of the power duo of Caviar Infinite and Caviar Micro-Nutrients, Skin Caviar Eye Lift now not only targets the skin’s horizontal elements, but also the vertical ligaments. The results? The upper eyelids appear lifted, firmness is intensified, wrinkles look smoothed and eye bags diminished. The formula is further enhanced with the Exclusive Cellular Complex™, La Prairie’s rejuvenating signature.
The power of three
The Skin Caviar Collection offers three eye products with complementary benefits: The Essence of Skin Caviar Eye Complex hydrates and re-energises the eye area. Skin Caviar Eye Lift helps lift, firm and smooth to sculpt the appearance of the eye contours, while Skin Caviar Luxe Eye Cream nourishes the eye area while providing additional lifting and firming support.
