THOUSANDS OF ORCHID OLEO-CONCENTRATE MICROSPHERES
TO RESTORE THE RADIANCE OF YOUTH
A patented¹ formulation achievement requiring 3 years’ research and development, The Goldessence reveals a captivating duality: thousands of nourishing microspheres infused with the orchid oleo-concentrate suspended in a light-activating solution with resurfacing properties. Together, they envelop skin in a radiance-revealing silky veil. At the heart of this alchemy, the Gold Nobile orchid extract with rejuvenating powers helps to restore the functions of cellular youth².
This activating step helps to restore the ideal path for light in skin: it refines skin texture, smooths the microrelief and reduces light traps³ that slow down its diffusion. More even, skin captures and reflects light better through all its layers. From the first application, radiance is revived, skin texture refined and luminosity amplified.
Ideally prepared, skin is ready to receive all the power of the Orchidée Impériale Gold Nobile ritual.

GOLD NOBILE TECHNOLOGY: REJUVENATION AND RADIANCE
Building on 20 years’ expertise in orchids and cell ageing, the Orchidarium’s experts have identified an exceptional orchid: the Gold Nobile. Endemic to the Himalayan region, it has the ability to combine several photosynthesis mechanisms to turn the sun’s light into energy.
This energy is captured via a biotechnological process¹ to create the Gold Nobile technology. It helps to restore biophoton emission by old cells to a level approaching that of young cells², promotes the cell rejuvenation process and helps to reestablish an ideal structure for light diffusion, while reducing age-related “light traps”³.
¹Made in Europe. ²In vitro test on ingredient. ³Action on the amount and distribution of melanin, glycated proteins.
