Finding depth in a skin-deep world

Photography: Philotheusch Nisch

Is it a dream to imagine the possibility of stopping time? Sure. But isn’t it also true that it’s exactly in dreams that we experience how time changes the most dramatically – a moment can feel like an eternity, an eternity can pass in a moment but, similar to the majestic mountains of the Alps, we stand tall and weather the trials of time in ageless beauty.

A marriage of beauty and art since 1931: Clinique La Prairie, has been known for its legendary and truly luxurious products for almost a century. Located in an exclusive sanctuary at the foot of the Swiss Alps, every breath taken even just in the vicinity already invites the idea of rejuvenation and calm. It is here that a select clientele experienced the revolutionary cellular therapy by Dr. Niehans’ pioneering research and where La Prairie was inspired to develop the Science of Haute-Rejuvenation, a formula designed to support the skin’s natural ability to regenerate itself – to exist, in a sense, beyond the rules imposed by time.

In the universe of beauty and wellness, La Prairie exists in an eschalon of its own. How it has come to claim and maintain its mantle as an instantiation of refinement and fine sense is itself part of what makes it so timelessly compelling. Here we attempt to pull at some of these threads and approach, if not the indescribable aura itself, then at least some of its constituent dimensions.

La Prairie’s elite line, the Platinum Rare Haute Rejuvenation Protocol, draws inspiration from the dream of eternity. Trusting in the power of this dream, it has realized its full creative potential in a formula that perpetually rejuvinates the skin, penetrating deep into its molecular structures to counteract the deleterious effects of time. Picture, if you will, a ripple running in reverse. It is the pursuit of this vision that imbues the Platinum Rare line with an animus that extends it to the pedigree of art, a creative event in its own right in which one is invited to participate. It exerts its effect in a multi-stage process that has been refined to its very apex.

A moment can feel like an eternity, an eternity can pass in a moment but, similar to the majestic mountains of the Alps, we stand tall and weather the trials of time in ageless beauty.

Housed in an elegant croffet, which opens to reveal three amethyst-toned vials, with two formulas divided into individual chambers, one formula suspended over the other, like a breath perhaps, or a memory. The separation preserves the integrity of the formulas until the very last moment, when they crack together in a magical burst. Beyond that, as is the case with a dream, the feeling itself is personal to the last – it exists in itself, and it is impossible to imitate.
