The Art, Science and Mathematics of Beauty
Partnering with Art Basel Hong Kong for the second consecutive year, La Prairie proves once more that art and beauty are the perfect pairing
The worlds of beauty and art have long been intrinsically linked, and that connection is very much alive today in the continuing partnership between two leading Swiss brands: La Prairie and Art Basel.
While the cosmetics industry may be driven by science and innovation, beauty itself would not exist without art. La Prairie’s approach is to use science as an art form, uncovering the factors that contribute to our skin’s glow. Most recently, it has developed a formula that reveals the relationship between light, luminosity and the ageing process: the Equation of Light.
Essentially, our skin is affected by pigments that turn white light into coloured light, decreasing the appearance of luminosity to the naked eye. Whether it’s grey dust, brown sun spots, yellow oxidative stress or red inflammation, these tones interfere with the colour of light reflected off our skin, while uneven texture and loss of collagen interfere with and impair the amount of light reflected.
La Prairie’s White Caviar Illuminating Pearl Infusion and White Caviar Crème Extraordinaire work in tandem, specifically targeting and eliminating grey, brown, yellow and red tones so that the skin can reflect clear, white light.
Each product has its own merits – the Illuminating Pearl Infusion with its exclusive Illuminating Compound and the Crème Extraordinaire featuring the patented Lumidose – but they also share Golden Caviar Extract, an ingredient that is enhanced with an exclusive Cellular Complex to rejuvenate cells with energy and firm skin so that it can better reflect light.
Any artist understands the importance of light and clarity, and while these products are surely a construct of science, their effects are pure art. Softer, silkier and more luminous, your skin will look like it’s lit from within.

The Art of Rejuvenation
The world of beauty has never seen such an equivalent – until now.
La Prairie has long been known as a maison that provides the most exclusive, exquisite creations; beauty elixirs that are uniquely effective and exceedingly special, using revered and unusual ingredients housed in vessels that are iconic and synonymous with exceptional beauty. And the Platinum Rare collection represents the pinnacle of the brand’s precious potions, elevating the practice of uncovering and rediscovering a youthful appearance to high art – the art of haute rejuvenation.

The process of haute rejuvenation brings forward the research and knowledge long held in the vaults of La Prairie, combining it with innovative thinking, careful craftsmanship and the world’s rarest ingredients to create an experience of timeless luxury. And the first step in this experience has just been unveiled: the Platinum Rare Cellular Life-Lotion.
While platinum has been known as an emblem of strength and eternity since the days Louis XVI declared it the only metal fine enough to grace the coiffeuses and tables at the court of Versailles, the scientists at La Prairie have discovered more to this metal than simply symbolism. Its ability to enhance the power of rejuvenating peptides made it a natural addition to the ingredients list of Platinum Rare products, and it’s the crown jewel in Platinum Rare Cellular Life-Lotion, an essence-in-lotion that is able to support key cellular detoxification processes and help reset and renew the skin, setting the stage for the next steps in the haute-rejuvenation line-up.

Skin ageing, after all, is a product of damage which the skin is unable to repair – and key to the concept of rejuvenation is giving the skin tools to reverse the damage, while allowing cells to operate at an optimal level. Platinum Rare Cellular Life-Lotion does exactly that: guarantees that cells function at a high level, boosts cellular energy function, and protects cells from irritants from internal and external sources by assisting with natural detoxification processes.
Using proprietary Platinum Peptide and an exclusive Cellular Complex that infuses the skin with nutrients and gives it a kickstart to rejuvenation, the skin’s texture is instantly refined, while fine lines and wrinkles are filled in and elasticity is restored. If that isn’t haute rejuvenation, what is?
