L.RAPHAEL, a recognized pioneer of the skincare technology and science of beauty, announces another revolutionary achievement. The news was awaited by the international expert community as well as faithful clients of this prestigious Swiss beauty brand and institution – they were waiting on the Green Caviar line since it had been partially revealed in 2019 at the Cannes Film Festival where L.RAPHAEL’s worldwide premiers traditionally take place.

This powerful aquatic plant found in Okinawa, Japan contains valuable nutriment such as high contents of amino acids, minerals, micronutrients and vitamins. Amino acids act like collagen which can be effective for skin elasticity and continuous skin hydration. Designed to protect the skin barrier and moisture levels, while preventing fine lines this active helps skin look revitalized, firmer and smoother. Green Caviar, in comparison to land plants, can store these compounds at a concentration that is up to 1000 times higher.

The Green Caviar’s unique, dermatological benefits include potent, positive and physical effects on skin cells, anti-oxidant activity counteracting free radicals, strengthening the base membrane of skin cells through stimulating production of essential proteins, including Laminin-5 and Collagen IV.

“Once we discovered that Green Caviar has a real structural effect on skin cells – a window of opportunities opened, and enabled us to develop products that benefit from this natural phenomenon” – comments Professor Paolo Giacomoni.

As L.RAPHAEL’s Chief Scientist, Professor Paolo Giacomoni continued extensive scientific studies of the micro algae looking to combine the discovery of the Green Caviar with the powers of LEC-40, the signature revolutionary anti-aging ingredient developed by Professor Meir Shinitsky L.RAPHAEL’S co-founder famously known for his research on cell membranes. Professor Giacomoni had idea then to add Vita Arctic a precious prebiotic ingredient, creating a line dedicated to the skin’s microbiome while fighting the signs of aging, resulting in a perfectly balanced skincare line.

LEC40 is L.RAPHAEL’s exclusive lipid complex containing natural vital components such as Lecithin, Omega 3, Omega 6, Gamma Linoleic and Retinol. As part of the aging process, lecithin contents of the skin cell decreases and the cell membrane becomes rigid. Key ingredients such as glucose, fatty acids and vitamins are no longer able to penetrate the cells easily. By providing skin with lecithin, dying skin cells are revived, as they are able to absorb the needed nutrients.

Vita Arctic is a natural prebiotic extracted from Artic Rubus berries in-tends to reinforce vulnerable skin and promoting microbiome ecosys tem balance by increasing beneficial bacteria that are associated with healthier skin. It improves the skin defensive system through the stimu-lation of the skin microbiome intrinsic capabilities while reducing in-flammation and boosting skin immune tolerance.

Altogether these active ingredients represent the core of the formulas of GREEN CAVIAR CELLULAR REPAIR, the exclusive protective and anti-aging line, which is the L.RAPHAEL’s latest innovation.

This collection of 3 beauty products suitable for all skin types counteracts the first signs of aging, protects the barrier of the skin and refinishes it by promoting microbiome balance, in other words, balancing the ecosystem of the skin and preserving its structure. Used on a regular basis, it prolongs the face youthful appearance.

The new hydrating, protective and anti-aging line of L.RAPHAEL offers a 3-step skincare ritual starting with Day & Night Repair Serum to be followed with Face, Neck & Décolleté Shield Cream and/or Overnight Repair Mask. All are to be smoothly applied over the skin using a gentle, upwards motion.
