From scientific discoveries to technological feats, Dior science has been satisfying women and convincing the scientific world for 35 years.
The commitment of an avant-garde science to improve effectiveness
Created in 1973, the Dior Innovation Centre, the 2nd largest Cosmetic Research Centre in France, combines with audacity the most advanced disciplines (molecular biology, chemistry, dermatology, ethnobotany, genomics, proteomics, etc.) and works hand in hand with the most prestigious universities in the world (Pierre et Marie Curie in France, Stanford in the United States, Shanghai University in China).
Unanimously recognised avant-garde technologies
Open to avant-garde technologies and ingredients, Dior science continuously explores and surpasses the frontiers of progress. Today, 3 Nobel Prizes and 310 patents have been awarded for its research.The mission of Dior science is to activate, control and extend all the biological processes dedicated to the optimal performance of skin cells.
Dior skincare’s history is thus punctuated by innovative technologies designed to exalt cellular life which gets more intense day after day, in order to enhance the skin’s youthfulness and beauty :
Liposomes improve the diffusion of active ingredients down to the heart of the cells and maximize the performance of skincare (Capture, 1968)
Pure micro-proteins revive the rejuvenating activity of the cells (Capture Essentiel, 1998)
Aquaporins facilitate the circulation of water in all layers of the epidermis and drench cells with a rich and active water (HydraMove, 2001)
The 20 youth markers, proteins responsible for the ageing of the skin, restore the skin’s youthfulness (Capture Totale, 2006)
Sirtuins, longevity proteins, increase the life expectancy of the cells (Capture Totale, 2007)
Stem cells, the most precious cells of the skin for they breed all the other cells, reactivate the production of living substance beneath the wrinkles (Capture R60/80TM XP, 2008)
