La Prairie’s latest skincare innovations aim to strengthen the skin’s architecture from the inside out
Skincare is a finicky thing. Most products get by with providing an instantaneous boost; think moisturisers that juice up the skin on application and reduce the appearance of pores. But, perhaps more importantly, there are also the long-term effects to consider — how does each product help support the skin’s health and resilience over time?
In response, Swiss skincare brand La Prairie has released a pair of products aimed at strengthening the skin, rooted in a deeper understanding of what the skin truly needs: resilience through structure.
What makes the White Caviar Light Concentrate and Skin Caviar Hydro Emulsion such a compelling duo is their shared goal: restoring and boosting the skin’s architecture. Both formulas use La Prairie’s Caviar Micro-Nutrients and Exclusive Cellular Complex, potent technologies that energise the skin and stimulate collagen synthesis.
Whether you’re targeting dullness, fine lines or post-acne discolouration, both products work synergistically to reinforce the skin’s natural scaffolding, making it more resilient and luminous.

White Caviar Light Concentrate ($980 for 20ml)
The White Caviar Light Concentrate is a serum designed to tackle deep-seated dullness and uneven skin tone.
At the heart of this formulation lies encapsulated Lumidose, a brightening molecule that took La Prairie’s scientists over 15 years to develop. It targets hyperpigmentation and post-acne marks by inhibiting tyrosinase activity, essentially preventing the overproduction of melanin.

Adding to the serum’s efficacy is a re-texturising complex, which smooths the skin’s surface in a way that mimics the effects of a gentle chemical peel, without any irritation. Clinical studies show improvements in skin smoothness and tone after just four weeks, with visible reductions in dark spots and acne marks.
Skin Caviar Hydro Emulsion ($340 for 30ml, $710 for 70ml)
If White Caviar Light Concentrate is the brightener, Skin Caviar Hydro Emulsion (main image) is the hydrator and lifter. This new entrant into the Skin Caviar line includes Caviar Hydroessence, a water-soluble, protein-rich element that supports epidermal structure and helps resist sagging and wrinkles.
What sets this product apart is its featherweight texture: It feels like a water veil laced with silk. Unlike traditional rich moisturisers, the Hydro Emulsion glides on effortlessly and delivers instant hydration that lasts, proven to increase skin hydration by 70% and firmness by 38% over eight weeks. The formula uses oil-inwater technology, allowing it to absorb quickly while locking in moisture.
Used separately, both formulas are potent. But layered together, they create a skincare experience that is both sensorial and scientific. Begin with the White Caviar Light Concentrate to target texture and tone, then follow with the Skin Caviar Hydro Emulsion to seal in hydration and reinforce firmness.
The result? Skin that not only looks radiant but feels structurally strong.
