ART of PERFECTION

Swiss artistry lies at the heart of every La Prairie creation, like the new Skin Caviar Luxe Cream

-

Amarriage of science, aesthetics and indulgence, La Prairie’s Skin Caviar Luxe Cream is a work of art. Three decades on, not only has this iconic youth elixir been remastered to become more potent than ever before, it has also served as the inspiratio­n for a unique collaborat­ion with Art Basel, the world ’s leading art platform with exhibition­s across the globe. In fact, the Swiss brand ’s intrinsic link to ar t dates back to its origins—the signature cobalt blue packaging of the La Prairie Skin Caviar collection was inspired by French avant-garde artist, Niki de Saint Phalle and her love for this hue in her works. Today, to honour the legacy of de Saint Phalle as well as the newly reformulat­ed Skin Caviar range, La Prairie has partnered with fellow Swiss, artist Manon We rt en broek,toc rea tea series of exclusive art works. Wertenbroe­k ’s three works, Mirrors, Blue Portrait and Window Glimpse, pay tribute to the iconic cobalt blue while reflecting the brand’ s heritage of caviar expertise and cutting-edge techniques at the same time. To celebrate this collaborat­ion of Swiss artist ry, these works were presented alongside de Saint Phalle’s signature Pouf serpent bleu at Art Basel in Switzerlan­d earlier this year. It was an artistic dialogue bet ween creators of beaut y, both past and present. But one cannot forget the true masterpiec­e—the remastered Skin Caviar Luxe Cream, as well as the Skin Caviar Lu xe Cream Sheer and Skin Caviar Luxe Sleep Mask. The secret lies in Caviar Premier, a new breakthrou­gh complex that harnesses the full potential of La Prairie’ s signature ingredient, caviar. This consists of six caviar mime tic s—labderived pearls that encapsulat­e the highest concentrat­ion of caviar’ s lifting and fir ming superpower­s—making the active ingredient more effective than ever. Together with the exclusive Cellular Complex, the updated Skin Caviar range also makes for as en so rial skincare experience, with a calming floral fragrance that wafts over your face as the luxurious formula improves facial contours, elasticity and tone, leaving complexion­s plumped and satiny smooth.
