This year, La Prairie pursuits its quest for greatness in skincare by launching a new important product in the Skin Caviar collection. Caviar is synonymous with audacity.

La Prairie Skin Caviar Liquid Lift 2020: A Very Powerful Serum

Caviar is probably one of the most astonishing contributions to skincare of the past 30 years. It is an outstanding natural product that is able to support life, and as the scientists at La Prairie discovered, also nourishes and benefits the skin. The precious components of the Caviar are extracted by La Prairie to create La Prairie Skin Caviar incarnations.

Scientists at La Prairie developed Caviar Premier and this complex was designed as a mimetic fingerprint of natural caviar’s chemical composition. The task was not easy and La Prairie team had to use a mix of biomolecules. These are blended with La Prairie’s biomimetic Caviar Peptide that has been designed based on the amino acid sequence of a specific caviar protein. In 2017, La Prairie took Skin Caviar to other highs by launching a new Caviar complex called Caviar Absolute. It is a highly concentrated form of caviar, obtained by using a precise extraction process in order to isolate the two most abundant ingredients in caviar: caviar oils and caviar proteins. The process, developed by La Prairie, includes pressing and centrifugation steps at room temperature to ensure the integrity of such delicate molecules.

The new La Prairie Skin Caviar Liquid Lift 2020 integrates these two caviar complexes in order to create the most powerful serum of the brand and one of the most powerful of the beauty market. The Caviar Premier has a strong lifting power while Caviar Absolute allows volume regaining. In order to complete the formula, La Prarie added its exclusive Cellular Complex. Inspired by Dr Paul Niehans’s pioneering work on rejuvenation conducted at the storied Clinique La Prairie, the Exclusive Cellular Complex gives new life and energy back to the skin. It targets essential cells and components of the extracellular matrix for a rejuvenated appearance.

Skin Caviar story starts with one important element: True Caviar, now Swiss Made.

One of the most important aspects in La Prairie’s formulation is the freshness and quality of utilized ingredients. Not only the selection of the best ingredients are crucial but also the production and extraction needs to follow a precise protocole. In order to guarantee the most preserved quality of the caviar to extract, La Prairie decided to raise a limited number of the best quality sturgeons in alpine waters habitats. The spring water spends months seeping through rocks and therefore undergoes a process of natural filtration, bringing a rich mineralogy of this ancient landscape. Of course La Prairie pursuits a close monitoring of the conditions means these pools are a perfectly balanced environment, ideal for producing the best possible caviar.

The determination of La Prairie to obtain the fresher caviar possible brought them to partner with a Swiss artisanal cultivator that devotes his time, heart and soul to harvesting this unique caviar. Being close to the cultivation area, it allows to dramatically reduce the time between the harvesting and the extraction production. This guarantees an optimal quality of caviar ingredients and brings La Prairie to a higher Swiss Made excellence.
