What if we could defy skin signs of ageing?
The biggest effect on skin ageing isn’t time, it’s your lifestyle & habits

THE DEFINITION
Epigenetics: The heart of
youth mechanisms
Epigenetics defines the scientific study on how lifestyle and the environment can influence the ageing process of your skin.
Research on epigenetics shows that our genes provide a blueprint for biological functions, yet it's our lifestyle choices that largely shape their expression.

THE RESEARCH
Unprecedented clinical study on more than 60
on more than 60 twins1

At the origin was a clear and simple observation: despite having the same genetic make-up, the twins age differently.
The study has shown that epigenetics changes can dramatically increase signs of skin ageing. This is what Clarins calls Epi-ageing.

Epi-ageing: definition and concept
Epi-ageing is defined by Clarins as the acceleration of skin's aging process due to lifestyle and environmental factors such as UV exposure, pollution, and consumption of tobacco and alcohol.
Our research shows how these factors modify skin cell epigenetics, with a significant 44%2 increase in DNA-binding chemical structures that deactivate essential genes.
The result is a pronounced appearance of the six signs of aging. Forehead lines, dullness, visible pores, uneven skin tone, nasolabial folds, and sagging skin (ptosis).
How does the Double Serum help fight the effects of epigenetics on your skin?
Clarins’ Research proves for the first time that it is possible to challenge the effects of epi-ageing2.
Through epigenetic studies, Clarins developed a cutting-edge technology called Epi-ageing Defense, designed to target the signs of ageing caused by lifestyle and environmental factors. Clarins’ Epi-ageing Defense technology helps to reinforce your skin against ageing accelerators of modern life. The organic Giant Provence Reed extract fights against the daily environmental skin damage.
This innovative formula is designed to boost the skin’s vital functions, fight the effects of ageing and enhance the skin's barrier function.
