Style Edit: La Prairie unveils the Life Matrix Haute Rejuvenation Cream – we spoke to the Swiss beauty giant’s director of innovation, Dr Daniel Stangl, about the revolutionary anti-ageing product
- La Prairie products are gentle on the skin, and designed holistically to ensure longevity and enhance cell functionality
- Fake news on skincare is harmful – the Swiss brand, meanwhile, works to address solutions on a cellular level and with clients who are knowledgeable about their skin
The new Life Matrix Cream targets signs of ageing according to individualised cellular therapy principles. How does it work?
It’s really a shift from the more traditional way of doing anti-ageing to something that is more future-oriented. Every client has a different lifestyle, skin conditions, genetic predispositions. I don’t want this old classification just addressing two parameters, oiliness and hydration. It’s really more about the holistic conditions of the skin in terms of health status, which is dependent on the functionality of cells.
What we wanted to achieve is this double benefit, to address aspects of skin longevity that affect everyone, but also on an individual level. The Life Matrix Exclusive Matrix Complex shows this dual functionality: the reset of [cellular] information to a younger state, also, an effect on the individual patterns of these RNA molecules that we have tested.
