The Iris flower has long beguiled mankind as a symbol of hope and wisdom. It’s no surprise the ancient Egyptians and the Greeks revered the Iris. Despite its beauty and allure, it is the resilience of this flower that captivated the Swiss Perfection team to study its properties as they observed how the Iris flowers withered every winter and would reemerge stronger and in even larger numbers as soon as spring arrived.
The result of this study is now a key ingredient used in Swiss Perfection’s range of cellular technology skincare, the Cellular Active Irisa®. Crafted with the Iris Germanica flower harvested from the preserved grounds of Château de Vullierens, a Swiss family-owned castle located near Lac Léman in Switzerland, close to Swiss Perfection’s headquarters.
It is the cells of the Iris root that contains revitalising benefits that could boost the skin’s health. Upon discovering this, the Swiss Perfection team developed their signature complex ingredient, the Cellular Active IRISA®. “I like to talk about the skin condition rather than skin type because it changes over time, it changes according to your hormones, the climate and the environment you live in. Through this philosophy, we can address any skin condition and need,” says Alexandra Moulin, the Chief Operating Officer of Swiss Perfection.
Intending to preserve the skin’s vitality, Swiss Perfection has come up with a comprehensive Cellular Active IRISA® skincare range that contains all the products you need for a daily routine.
I tried out the brand’s four-step introductory gift set, the perfect starter kit for anyone new to the brand. Starting with a deep cleanse, the Cellular Purifying Gel is a deep cleanser that thoroughly purifies the skin, infused with properties that preserve the hydrolipidic film of the skin, making it less reactive to external aggressors such as dust pollutants and oily substances.
Meanwhile, the Cellular Soothing Facial Lotion is a hydra-fluid treatment to calm and protect sensitive skin and delivers tissue-repairing properties. Skin is left feeling unified, super soft and prepped. Next, the RS-28 Cellular Anti Dark Spot Serum is a lightweight serum containing high concentrations of active botanical ingredients to inhibit melanin production to target uneven skin tones and dark spots as a result of ageing, hormonal fluctuations and sun exposure.
The fourth step is the Cellular Hydra Recovery Cream, an intense cream that offers instant hydration and delivers long-term rebalancing to the skin, instantly calming any inflammation. For an even more intensive repair, the RS-28 Cellular Intensive Treatment can be done over a 28-day period. The formula combines two highly potent active ingredient components that diminish wrinkles and leave a long-lasting glow.
“The Cellular Active IRISA® range has many properties for the skin, but what I always like to emphasise is the stimulation program that it brings to the cells,” says Moulin. “It really focuses on the cell renewal system.”
Results are instant. Skin is left smooth and glowy and soft to the touch. But what’s really amazing about this range is the long-term effects it brings to the skin’s health by balancing the skin’s PH factor as well as boosting tissue oxygenation to remove impurities over time.
While the Cellular Active IRISA® range is suitable for anyone who wants to improve the overall health of their skin, it’s certainly made for those who desire instant results for those who wish to target the core of skin issues, not just what’s on the surface. It’s one of the things Swiss Perfection has always done well, which is excelling at technological innovation by looking to nature to treat the skin.
