LONGEVITY SCIENCE
?AND WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR SKIN?

WHAT IS SKIN LONGEVITY?
Skin longevity is the idea that skin naturally has the power to look and act younger than its biological age, and to maintain its peak performance longer than was traditionally thought possible. The key to activating this youth activity is Sirtuins.

WHAT ARE SIRTUINS?
They are specialized longevity proteins found naturally in every skin cell. They form a vital network in skin, fueling youthful cell activity such as collagen production and cellular renewal.

HOW ARE SIRTUINS AND AGING LINKED?
Over time, Sirtuins age and “go dark”—their activity diminishes. Vitality dims. Lines, dullness, loss of firmness and other signs of aging may appear.

“We, at Estée Lauder, have now been studying the role of Sirtuins in skin... [they] are vital to keeping skin cells functioning and healthier for a longer time.”

WHAT IS SIRTIVITY-LP™ TECHNOLOGY?
Almost like flipping a switch, SIRTIVITY-LP™ technology helps “turn on” skin’s natural youth network of Sirtuin proteins to reveal visible age reversal.

WHAT ARE SIRTUINS BENEFITS FOR SKIN?
When Sirtuins are activated, skin performance peaks and signs of aging are reversed. Sirtuins benefits? It’s like recapturing time. Skin looks and acts younger.

“We have provided the proof of concept that activating or ‘turning on’ Sirtuins can reverse aspects of aging.”

MEET THE THOUGHT LEADERSWHAT IS SKIN LONGEVITY?
It’s the skin’s natural power to look and act younger, and to maintain its peak performance. Research shows that the key to activating skin longevity is Sirtuins.
WHAT ARE SIRTUINS?
Sirtuins are a family of seven proteins that are found naturally in skin cells. These specialized longevity proteins form a vital network in skin, fueling youthful activity.
WHAT ARE SIRTUIN BENEFITS FOR SKIN?
According to research, activating or “turning on” Sirtuins can benefit skin performance. This can help reverse signs of aging so that skin appears firmer, feels smoother and looks and acts younger. Click here to hear more from our expert on the benefits of Sirtuins for skin.
IS THERE A CONNECTION BETWEEN SIRTUINS AND AGING?
Research shows a connection between Sirtuins and the visible signs of aging. As Sirtuins age and are exposed to environmental stressors, they weaken and “go dark”. This can result in skin dullness, loss of firmness, visible lines and wrinkles and other signs of aging.
WHAT HAS ESTÉE LAUDER’S LONGEVITY SCIENCE UNCOVERED ABOUT SIRTUINS?
Estée Lauder has been at the forefront of Sirtuin skin science for 15+ years. We have identified ingredients that “turn on” Sirtuins, which can help optimize youthful skin cell activity. This technology can help skin sustain its peak performance and show signs of visible age reversal.
