La Prairie Skin Caviar Harmony L’Extrait

La Prairie Skin Caviar Harmony L'Extrait 1

The Caviar Science expert has done it again; we’re talking about La Prairie, which has spent the last 35 years studying caviar and its benefits to the skin.

The brand introduces the powerful and intensive Skin Caviar Harmony L’Extrait, designed to complement and elevate your Skin Caviar ritual.

As you dispense and apply the product, pay attention to the beads of the potent extract that delicately melts into the surrounding gel, transforming into a light, refreshing fluid that infuses skin with an immediate tensing sensation and a satin-smooth finish.

The results? Resculpted contours, regained volume, and reduced appearance of wrinkles.

La Prairie Skin Caviar Harmony L’Extrait retails for RM4,050 and is available at Isetan KLCC, Isetan Gardens, and Parkson Pavilion.
