Lancome Launches Its New Blanc Expert Derm Crystal Serum
Lancôme launches its Blanc Expert Derm Crystal serum this month. Emma Watson is face of this new product which is designed to target the dermis, original source of natural sunlight, to reveal the skin’s inner light as never before.
Blanc Expert Derm Crystal contains the exclusive Dermactyl Complex™, an unprecedented alliance of Soy, Sunflower, Mint and Rose extracts to target the dermis, associated with powerful actives to target the epidermis. An unprecedented brightening action from the dermis to the surface.
Clear as crystal, each delicate droplet of Blanc Expert Derm Crystal is like a drop of light, gently suffusing the skin to leave it fresh, and luminous, lusciously moist and subtly scented.
THE miracle OF CRYSTAL SKIN
IN THE DERMIS LIES THE secret OF LIGHT…
ACHIEVE THE miracle OF CRYSTAL SKIN
NEW SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE: DERMAL CELLS ARE A KEY SOURCE OF NATURAL LIGHT
For Asian women, translucency – defined as a unique combination of radiance, even tone and a
smooth, fine texture – represents the ideal of beautiful skin. Just as the purest light of all is as transparent as crystal, so the natural light that radiates through truly translucent skin is dazzling in its beauty.
A. Influence of dermis quality on transparent look
B. Role of the dermis in skin pigmentation
This model represents an outstandingly reliable tool for studying the processes of skin pigmentation. What this unique skin model revealed for the first time was that – in addition to existing known actors, notably epidermal keratinocytes and melanocytes – the key cells of the dermis, the fibroblasts, play a fundamental role in regulating skin pigmentation. This important discovery was validated by our Researchers in two ways:
1. The key role of dermal cells on skin pigmentation and luminance. Two reconstructed skin models with pigmentation abilities were created: one with fibroblasts and one without fibroblasts. The skin model without fibroblasts showed drastic constitutive hyperpigmentation compared to the model with living dermal cells, demonstrating that fibroblasts influence pigmentary function. Moreover, fibroblasts influence the luminance of the skin.
2. The key role of photoaged dermal cells on pigmentation In a second approach, our researchers produced two reconstructed skin models with pigmentation abilities: one with young fibroblasts and one in which the fibroblasts had been subjected to photo-aging. The photoaged model showed significantly higher levels of both pigmentation and melanogenesis activity. Meanwhile, young fibroblasts efficiently regulate pigmentary function. These tests show that aged fibroblasts can generate skin hyperpigmentation with age.
Acting on these new findings, Lancôme was able to develop its most complete whitening strategy yet. In addition to addressing established factors of skin pigmentation at epidermal level, the technology of new Blanc Expert Derm-Crystal™ Crystal Brightness Activating Essence is designed to target the dermis, original source of natural light, to reveal skin’s inner light as never before.For GLOBALTRANSPARENCYAND RADIANCE
FROM THE DERMIS TO THE SURFACE
Lancôme’s utmost formula to date, Blanc Expert Derm-Crystal™ contains the exclusive Dermactyl
Complex, an unprecedented alliance of Soy, Sunflower, Mint and Rose extracts to target the dermis, associated with powerful actives to target the epidermis. To offer a brightening action from the dermis to the surface.
1. Dermactyl Complex: to target the dermis
Soy and Sunflower extractshelp to reveal ideally luminous and bright skin. Soy extract works to stimulate* the fibroblasts to produce bright new collagen fibres, for a radiant skin. The stimulating action of Soy extract on fibroblasts is completed by an effect on melanin synthesis. Tested on our new 3D model of pigmented reconstructed skin, Soy extract significantly reduces melanogenesis by 36.5% compared to control. It is important to note that the histology of our 3D model of pigmented reconstructed skin shows that Soy extract regulates the quantity of synthesised melanin while preserving skin integrity and melanocytes number and morphology.
2. actyl p: to target the epidermis
At the epidermis level, a new QD whitening agent, Actyl P, acts globally to help regulate pigmentation.
– by inhibiting* tyrosinase activity, the enzyme responsible for triggering
melanogenesis
– by protecting* the epidermis cells from UVs.
Actyl P, tested on keratinocytes/ melanocytes cocultures, showed its capacity to protect epidermis cells under UV by preserving the expression of detoxification and antioxidation genes (AKR1 and GPX3). Simultaneously, on the surface, salicylic acid gently stimulates the natural desquamation process to reveal brighter, smoother skin.
Blanc expert derm -crystal ™ LIGHT DROP-BY-DROP
INSPIRED BY A DROP OF LIGHT,
A CRYSTALLINE TEXTURE IN LUMINOUS PACKAGING
For a unique formula, a unique texture. Clear as crystal, each delicate droplet of Blanc Expert Derm-Crystal™ is like a drop of light, gently suffusing the skin to leave it fresh, and luminous, lusciously
moist and subtly scented.
A NEW CRYSTAL BLUE JAR
