YSL.SKINSCIENCE: A PLATFORM OF UNIQUE EXPERTISE SERVING SKIN RESEARCH

Yves Saint Laurent has developed a unique initiative with the creation of the YSL.SKINSCIENCE Committee composed of world-renowned experts in glycobiology and dermatology, together with L'Oréal researchers. This pioneering approach to skin research is opening the way to progress in the cosmetics field by applying glycobiology to the skin.

YSL creates  Forever Youth Liberator  inspired by glycobiology

The fruit of more than 100 years of research and recognized by 7 Nobel Prizes, glycobiology is the science of glycans which the Massachusetts Institute of Technology calls one of the 10 emerging technologies that may change the future of medicine.

Naturally found in the skin, glycans play a crucial role in the skin ageing process.  Their activity diminishes over time, leading to the "locking" of cells and blocking the youth process. Yves Saint Laurent has identified an innovative combination of glycans, called Glycanactif™ , which unlocks the cells to help stimulate skins youthful potential.  

Out of millions of combinations, the YSL.SKINSCIENCE Committee identified an innovative blend of glycans, called Glycanactif™, which helps unlock the cells in the skin to increase a more youthful level of activity. (in vitro test)

Glycanactif™:
3 glycans
3 functions
3 layers of the skin

The ingenuity of Glycanactif™ lies in its structure, which is built around an exclusive, patented trio of glycans.

Developed to a key to skin cells, Glycanactif™ "unlocks" access to the cells to reactivate the skin's youth-promoting functions. This breakthrough complex helps restore more optimal levels of the glycans that decrease with age to promote the synthesis of the components that form the matrix of the skin's structure, and stimulate the mechanisms of skin maintenance and renewal.

Like the glycans contained in the skin, Glycanactif™ helps restore and improve 3 functions:

• In the cells, it stimulates activity.
• On the surface of the cells, it promotes communication.
• Between the cells, promotes communication.

Glycanactif™ supports the skin in 3 areas:

• In the epidermis: it stimulates the synthesis of the hyaluronic acid receptor CD44.
• In the dermal-epidermal junction: it stimulates synthesis of perlecan glycan.
• In the dermis: it stimulates synthesis of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs).
