ORCHID MORPHO-PEPTIDEᵀᴹ TECHNOLOGY TARGETS SKIN’S MORPHOLOGICAL BONDS

Skin’s visible youthfulness is conditioned by its elastic resistance, in other words its capacity to absorb mechanical stress (micro-expressions, gravity, prolonged pressure), encouraging the visible signs of ageing to gradually take hold.
After over 20 years’ pioneering research into longevity, Guerlain has combined the regenerating power of the orchid with the morphological expertise of Guerlain Spas facialists to create Orchid Morpho-Peptideᵀᴹ technology. It helps to reinforce the morphological bonds at the heart of the epidermis¹, which provide real support for skin’s elastic resistance against the visible signs of ageing.

THE BI-PHASE OIL: A VIRTUOSIC FORMULA AND EFFICACY BOOSTER

The fruit of Guerlain’s formulation excellence, The Fundamental Oil offers comfort and efficacy in one.
It is 80% made up of a phase containing 20 precious oils, including revitalising orchid oleo-concentrate, and 20% of an essence concentrated in Orchid Morpho-Peptideᵀᴹ technology.

Formulated with 98.3% naturally-derived ingredients¹, this alchemical balance creates skincare of incredible finesse. After shaking, its two phases blend together for rapid absorption and intense skin nutrition with no greasy finish. As if plumped up from within, skin is visibly smoother and more toned.
Its crystalline texture is showcased at the heart of an amber bottle comprising at least 15% recycled glass.

¹Calculation based on the international ISO standard 16128, including water.

THE MORPHO-SCULPTING PROTOCOL DRAWN UP BY GUERLAIN SPAS EXPERT FACIALISTS

STEP 1: THE FUNDAMENTAL OIL - SCULPT: This oil tangibly improves skin’s morphological properties (elasticity, tone, plumpness). After shaking, apply the oil over the face, then perform the movements designed to redefine facial volumes.

STEP 2: THE NECK AND DÉCOLLETÉ CREAM - REMODEL: Gently warm the cream in your hands then perform the movements aiming to resculpt and provide enhanced support for the neck and décolleté areas.

STEP 3: THE MASK - SMOOTH: Apply the mask with a brush to envelop skin in a comforting, revitalizing veil and visibly relax the facial features.
