INGREDIENTS
15 YEARS OF RESEARCH ON THE ORCHID AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY
The orchid, a rare and precious raw ingredient, is the very essence of the exceptional complete care range Orchidée Impériale. A genuine longevity prodigy, the orchid is the most developed species in the plant kingdom. Convinced of its outstanding potential, Guerlain has set up its first ever research centre ever to be devoted to a single ingredient: the Orchidarium®.
This unique research centre revealed the extraordinary powers of a duo of orchids – including Gastrodia elata, an orchid essential to traditional Chinese medicine –-, selected from among more than 30,000 species, forming the core of the latest Cell Respiration™ Technology in the Orchidée Impériale Cream.
For 10 years, Guerlain has been committed to the preservation of orchids in their natural environment. 10,000 orchids have been reintroduced in the Tianzi Nature Reserve in Yunnan, China, one of the world's original birthplaces of orchids. Learn about our work in Yunnan on guerlain.com.

The Micro-Lift Concentrate has a unique texture thanks to a new process that infuses an aqueous serum with thousands of oily microcapsules. This technology, the latest discovery in micro-fluid science, forms thousands of micro-sculptors, one by one, on a microscopic scale. This process results in a unique sensorial signature. A delicious sensation of freshness on application, succeeded by the ultimate feeling of comfort thanks to thousands of micro-capsules melding subtly into the skin.
