THE ULTIMATE YOUTH TALISMAN IN ART EDITION BY LI HONGBO

Capacity : 50 ML

THE ART EDITION BY LI HONGBO

A visibly preserved, regenerated and extended youthfulness

THE BLACKIMMUNE™ TECHNOLOGY: A REVOLUTIONARY APPROACH TO SKIN SELF-DEFENSE

The Black Orchid¹ gives birth to BlackImmune™ technology. This technology targets 95% of the epidermal cells involved in the skin's self-defense². Each application, the skin becomes stronger and more resistant to external aggressions. Continuously protected, skin can thus devote all its resources to its regeneration, for skin that is more beautiful and younger-looking, for longer.

The Cream succeeds in the prowess of conciliating high-efficacy and high-sensorial experience thanks to its fine and generous formula that wraps the skin in a luxurious cocoon of protection. Made with ingredients with different fusion points, it offers a soft balm touch that triggers a cascade of melting sensations upon application.

A RARE, POWERFUL, ENDURING ORCHID

Native to the peruvian Andes, the Black Orchid¹ is an ebony-coloured wild orchid. It has the rare distinction of flowering only two weeks a year, and – even more remarkably – bearing male and female flowers on the same plants. An invaluable quality that allows it – through an in-depth understanding of its environment – to adapt its metabolism by establishing an ongoing symbiosis with its ecosystem. In the face of dangers, excess sun or a lack of light, for example, it responds by producing more male flowers, thus encouraging the fertilisation of female flowers and, as a result, more fruit. It intelligently conserves its energy and optimises its longevity, embodying a real talisman against time.

A JAR ADORNED BY LI HONGBO, CRAFTED BY MAISON BERNARDAUD

For this artistic edition, Guerlain reached out to talented contemporary artist Li Hongbo and the luxury artisanat of Maison Bernardaud.

Inspired by the resilience of the Black Orchid¹, Li Hongbo imagined this spray of orchids apposed in 24-carat gold leaf by artisans from Maison Bernardaud.

Established in Limoges since 1863, maison Bernardaud is a prestigious family business, embodying excellence in French porcelain for over 150 years. Unique and reusable, the jars are all hand-crafted by a team of 50 artisans.
