The orchid, a miracle of longevity The origins of the comprehensive and unique Orchidée Impériale skincare range lie in a fascinating flower that seems unfazed by time: the orchid. As the queen of the plant kingdom, it possesses unique mechanisms for cell longevity, some of which live for more than a hundred years. Guerlain was so convinced of its infinite potential for the skin that, for the first time, more than fifteen years ago, it dedicated its own research center to a single ingredient: the Orchidarium®. There, researchers were able to identify a duo of orchids with exceptional efficacy from among more than 30,000 species, concentrating their full power in a technology for supreme regeneration.

Step 1: Pour a few drops of Essence-in-Lotion into the palm of your hand. Step 2: Smooth the formula over your entire face. Step 3: Gently pat the lotion in with your fingertips.
