A Celebration Of Longevity, Inside And Out

For the evening, KONG was transformed into an intimate expression of the Clarins universe, with a dinner experience inspired by the House’s approach to longevity. Beauty and wellbeing came together through a thoughtfully curated menu featuring ingredients selected with health and longevity in mind—reflecting the idea that caring for ourselves extends beyond what we apply to our skin.

For over 30 years, Clarins has been a pioneer in longevity science founded on a holistic vision of beauty grounded in science and nature, aligned in well-being and balance, to support a framework for a life of vitality and longevity. Through the years, our ongoing research and innovation has explored the biological mechanisms of skin aging to set a healthy foundation and help skin perform at its best. This enduring commitment has led to 10 patents, 13 scientific publications and 12 scientific collaborations with leading research institutes from around the world. Rooted in the Clarins DNA from the very beginning, this expertise drives the groundbreaking innovation behind the Double Serum franchise.

Double Serum: 40 Years Of Skincare Innovation

At the heart of this celebration was Double Serum, the iconic Clarins skincare franchise that has embodied the brand’s approach to plant science and innovation for more than four decades.

First launched in 1985, Double Serum pioneered a dual-phase formula inspired by the skin’s hydrolipidic film, bringing together water- and oil-soluble ingredients within one treatment. Over nine generations, the formula has continued to evolve alongside advances in Clarins Research, most recently incorporating discoveries inspired by epigenetics to address both chronological aging and signs of aging associated with lifestyle and environmental factors.

Today, Double Serum remains one of Clarins’ most iconic and best-selling skincare products, embodying 40 years of continuous research and innovation.

A New Generation Of Double Serum Eye

The evening also celebrated the launch of the new generation of Double Serum Eye, bringing Clarins’ longevity expertise to the delicate eye contour.

Drawing on 30 years of longevity science and seven years of epigenetics research, the next-generation anti-aging eye treatment was developed to address the visible impact of both chronological and lifestyle-related aging around the eyes.

The two-in-one formula combines six plant extracts and five active molecules, including Organic Marjoram and Turmeric, and is designed to visibly target multiple signs of aging around the eye contour, including dark circles, puffiness, and wrinkles while smoothing and hydrating the skin.

Through Double Serum Eye, Clarins continues the story that began with Double Serum more than 40 years ago: combining pioneering scientific research, the power of plants and a holistic understanding of beauty to help shape the future of skin longevity.
