Joining hands with the application of the Equation of Light is the powerhouse of Lumidose. Taking 15 years to develop, La Prairie scientists have tirelessly studied in detail the mechanisms of melanin and how to address concerns regarding skin luminosity. As one of the main driving forces of this essence, Lumidose targets tyrosinase—the most potent inhibitor of human tyrosinase and the culprit that primarily controls our melanin production. La Prairie's chief marketing officer, Greg Prodromides also explains that "in the epidermis, Lumidose decreases the synthesis of the brown pigment melanin which reduces light-absorbing age spots, and sees skin luminosity is increased. This exceptional ingredient is the signature of White Caviar, and we plan to infuse it across the collection."

As the first step in the White Caviar ritual, the White Caviar Essence Extraordinaire is designed to improve the absorption of the following products of the routine and to enhance their efficacy. Dr. Hill and Dr. Stangl recommend to follow with the White Caviar Illuminating Pearl Infusion and White Caviar Crème Extraordinaire. In the mornings, be sure to also apply SPF to protect the skin from harmful sun rays and ensure the luminous effect of your ritual is preserved. We recommend the La Prairie’s Cellular Swiss UV Protection Veil, SPF 50, PA++++.

Poetic Synergy

Championing art at every possible avenue, La Prairie commissioned Taiwanese dancer, new media artist and choreographer Wen-Chi Su to pay tribute and capture the magical encounter of light and water through a poetic, feminine dance performance. Each movement thoughtfully executed to represent the metaphorical image of luminosity.

"When La Prairie approached me with an opportunity to work together, I appreciated the approach of exchange. I find my inspiration through true collaboration and having a community like the one at La Prairie has been very rich for myself and YiLab. Our inspiration is drawn from the same point—the essence of nature. We both want to create a beautiful, sophisticated, sensorial experience that reflects the physicality of the world. I had the opportunity to dive into the universe of La Prairie during my stay in Switzerland where I was immersed into the majestic Swiss nature. I was able to establish a strong connection between my body and my surroundings and transpose this into a timeless experience." expresses Wen-Chi Su.

This collaboration with Wen-Chi Su is the first time in which La Prairie explores the world of performance art where body, movement and femininity come together to enrich the brand with a new paradigm. Presented at Art Basel Miami Beach last year, this performance marks the continuous collaboration of the House with the world renowned art fair.
