What It Is: The Orchidée Impériale Longevity Concentrate Serum targets the areas where youthful volume has been lost, for denser, beautifully enhanced skin.
What It Does: Guerlain Orchidée Impériale Longevity Concentrate Serum uses the duo of orchids at the heart of Cell Respiration technology to help regulate the level of oxygen in the cells, enhancing the appearance of the skin for visibly minimized signs of aging.
This technology is combined with the redensifying action of a natural origin ingredient: tiger nut extract, which helps strengthen the structure and cohesion of the skin. The youthful volume appears to be recreated, the contours of the face more defined, wrinkles seem minimized and pores look refined with each application. The skin-perfecting effect is created by the action of a rose hip extract that helps minimize the slackening of the pores and makes them less visible.
How to Use: Apply the Longevity Concentrate Serum morning and evening after the Essence-in-Lotion and before the Orchidée Impériale Cream. The massage technique devised by experts from the Guerlain Institute optimizes the redensifying action of this serum:
- Working outwards from the center, apply to the face and neck with circular movements.
- Pinch the skin and give the wrists a quarter turn, repeating over the entire face.
- Place your hands in a V shape on the lower part of the face and, moving upwards, apply pressure with a wave-like motion.
- Tap the fingertips all over the face.
Key Ingredients: - The Longevity Concentrate Serum is enriched with the Cell Respiration™ technology which concentrates the exceptional replenishment power drawn from an extraordinary duo of orchids. It helps regulate cellular respiration, fight oxygen deficiency, and improve skin revitalization¹. Signs of aging are visibly improved.
- The Longevity Concentrate Serum is also enriched with tiger nut extract for a redensifying effect¹, and with rosa multiflora fruit extract, that acts on the pores². Tigernut sedge is a herbaceous plant belonging to the same botanical family as papyrus, used in Ayurvedic and traditional Chinese medicine. Rosa multiflora is one of the best-known wild rose species in Asia, the hips are red to purple when ripe and contain a number of active molecules, in particular flavonoids.
