Yves Rocher Anti-Age Global Night Cream Coveted by the Beautiful People of Whom You Know

Every night I have the same ritual: floss, brush teeth, remove make up, wash face, stare at wrinkles, sigh, stare at skin aging, slap on "miracle" cream, go to bed with fingers crossed. And you guessed it, every morning I wake up with no results. In a beauty market dominated by creams promising to save your skin from aging it is hard to know who to trust. I am happy to let you in on a little secret, a product that actually delivers results. Yves Rocher Anti-Age Global Night Cream. This is the new generation of anti-aging care. Made with plant source cells which are capable of constant renewal. This concentrated cream contains a formula which repairs and nourishes you skin while you sleep. This lovely cream feels wonderful on your skin and didn't cause us any breakouts, as night creams sometimes do. Our result, we actually broke our ritual: we awoke with better-looking skin.

After the make-up and the stress of the day has been removed from your face, what's left? Definitely a need to regenerate, renew, and firm up for the day to come. At night, the skin needs more help, so it can make all those little cells happy once again. Yves Rocher has a new product perfect for this process: Anti-Age Global. With a name like that, and two patents pending, their product will be coveted by those beauties who treat themselves to only the best. Yves Rocher is using "plant source cells" to mimic the constant regeneration of plants. What a genius idea! So take that make-up off, and make your skin happy with this new line of with-it skin care. It's a secret, but make sure to tell all your besties, and they'll love you forever. The research that goes into each Yves Rocher product is extensive, and very planet-conscious. Happy little plants give us what we need for smooth skin, so who are we to deny their fulfillment? Let Yves Rocher become your new friend. Look them up online, where you can access their newest, and most popular lines, and sit back, knowing you're in good hands.

The Anti-Aging Global Complete Night cream is a great addition to your skincare regime. Just like the Anti-Aging day cream from the Yves Rocher line, the night cream contains Plant Source Cells. This is supposed to repair and nourish the skin. And how it does so! Before, my skin used to be dehydrated and appeared dry and lackluster. After only a few uses of this cream, I wake up with nourished, healthy looking skin. It's like my skin glows! This is an investment every woman should make. Especially if you want to have healthy and radiant skin.

If I've learned one thing over the last few years, its been that having a good night cream is a must in any beauty regimen. When the Yves Rocher Anti-Age Global Complete Night Cream showed up on my door, I was so happy. I had just run out of my other night cream and was desperate for more. After washing my face and applying some of this cream, I could tell I wouldn't want to use any other night cream. It was so rich and creamy, but light enough for my skin to breath. I could tell a difference in my skin's texture and firmness the next morning. The more I used this cream, the better my skin looked and felt. I could tell the redness in my cheeks was decreasing as well. I know I will be ordering more to keep stocked in my beauty cabinet so I don't run out of night cream again.

Yves Rocher Anti-Age Global Complete Anti-aging Care Night Cream works wonders over night. I love how this product goes on nice and smooth. It's so silky and rich. It nourishes my face and brings it back to life. It's not a thick cream which I love. It's really nice and light. It moisturizes and I feel like it nourishes my face back to its youthful self. Use it one night and you will see the amazing change in your face. I feel like my face look very youthful. Watch this product turn back the clock.

A World 1st in Botanical Beauty
“The Anti-Age Global line developed by our Botanical Beauty Laboratories contains a new generation of Plant Source Cells.
These cells are called 4th Generation because they come from a unique elicitation, then are incorporated in their entirety in the formulas. In this way, their cellular structure is preserved and their maximum effectiveness is ensured.
Produced by a high-tech patented and optimized process, they are evidence of the constant quality and exceptional power of Botanical Beauty.
More than 100,000 Plant Source Cells are concentrated in each Anti-Age Global skin care product.
Thanks to innovative techniques and cutting-edge cosmetogenomics, Yves Rocher Researchers demonstrated the global poly-active power of Plant Source Cells on all signs of aging, to smooth wrinkles, moisturize, restore radiance, strengthen and redensify the skin.
A clinical study showed that Anti-Age Global skin care results in denser and firmer skin, as well as a better cohesion of its surface. The major signs of aging are corrected.

Glossary
Source cells: Meristematic cells in a non-specialized state: stem, leaves, roots...






Plant
source Cells
Stem cells are present within every evolved living being, both in the animal kingdom and the plant world. Within plants, these cells are specifically present in a tissue called “Meristem”.
The etymology of the term “Meristem”: “division” in the sense of “cell multiplication”.
Meristems: the origin of Plant Source Cells
The meristems are the areas where the cells retain a fabulous ability – to divide throughout the entire life of the plant to replicate any part of it, keeping all the characteristics of young cells!
These tissues are present in all plants, located principally at the ends of the plant, its roots, buds and the periphery of its stem. They allow the development of the plant, as well as its growth in thickness.
From meristems, we can regrow a plant in its entirety. And, unlike animal plant cells, meristemetic cells are totipotent. They are called totipotent because of their extraordinary power to give rise to all types of different cells, such as those of leaves, roots or stems. They are also capable of regenerating an organ or even an entire plant. Their regenerating abilities are particularly spectacular. They hold the tremendous power of infinite plant self-regeneration.
Meristems in the production of Plant Source Cells
Meristematic cells are present in small quantities in the plant. It is possible to extract them by a conventional method and guarantee a good yield. However, in vitro culture techniques allow them to be isolated and grown in their source state, thanks to an innovative, secure and patented process. This process guarantees a perfect quantity of Plant Source Cells.


The scientific collections of The Yves Rocher Botanical Garden
In La Gacilly, the Botanical Garden is a place for observation and conservation of more than 1,100 plant species. For over 50 years, it has been a source of infinite inspiration for our Botanical Beauty researchers. With their unique knowledge, they have worked on numerous original plants.
Their sole goal: to produce Plant Source Cells of remarkable quality and effectiveness.
Their selection process led them to Echinacea augustfolia, a plant species present in the research collection of this amazing outdoor Laboratory, the Yves Rocher Botanical Garden.

Totipotent: Totipotency is the ability of a cell to differentiate itself into any specialized cell.

Yves Rocher 4G Plant Source Cells
4thGeneration Plant Source Cells are the result of a high-tech patented process.
Until now, it was possible to proceed in different ways with cells produced by these cultures in a bioreactor:
- Extract the cell biomass with a solvent, these are the 1st Generation Cells (1G).
- Use the dehydrated cells, these are the 2nd Generation Cells (2G).
- Incorporate the whole Cells into the cosmetic formula, these are 3rd Generation Cells (3G). Today, Yves Rocher researchers have chosen to go beyond the 3rd Generation. For the first time ever, they use a cellular stimulation mechanism: elicitation.
This mechanism lets them guide, stimulate and potentiate the production of metabolites like Echinacoside to make the cells more active and therefore, more effective. This technology also allows for the incorporation of intact, whole cells with a strengthened presence of their metabolites, so useful for the proper functioning of skin.
The Yves Rocher Research Center for Botanical Beauty, in collaboration with a biotech laboratory partner, has developed more concentrated cells. These Plant Source Cells are called 4th Generation. They come from Echinacea and are unique to Yves Rocher.
These Yves Rocher 4th Generation Plant Source Cells are then added in their entirety to each Anti-Age Global skin care formula. All their cellular components are present, their DNA, proteins, peptides structure and, especially, their precious active metabolites. An evaluation under an optical microscope of the cell concentration of the active ingredient guarantees a concentration of more than 100,000 cells in each 50 ml jar in the Anti-Age Global line.

Sustainable Production of 4G Plant source cells
The process of growing Plant Source Cells is a soil-free system using laboratory bioreactors. So Yves Rocher 4G Plant Source Cells do not deplete renewable plant resources, nor generate waste, except for the liquid of the culture medium, which can be recycled.

Gene Pool Protection
The stress to which skin is exposed to by nature of it being outside the body is quickly transmitted to its cells. Consequences can be severe and result in significant mortality due to the destruction of the nucleus that contains the genetic form of DNA. This is called apoptosis. 4G Plant Source Cells was the subject of a study on the apoptotic phenomena. These results on better management of apoptosis are patent pending in France.
Benefits: Protection against exterior aggressions
Observation of fibroblast cultures by confocal microscopy
(with or without UV stress and with or without 4G Plant Source Cells (PSC) at 0.5%).
Control Environment Control Environment + UV PSC* 0.5% PSC* 0.5% + UV
Natural skin cell renewal
Cell renewal is crucial for optimal functioning of all tissue. On the surface it is responsible for the brightness and color of the skin. Further down, the mitotic activity offers real anti-aging action at the level of dermal fibroblasts.
4G Plant Source Cells were the subject of a quantitative study on the renewal of keratinocytes, but also of a qualitative study on the expression of cyclins, genuine “quality control” for the proper running of the cellular cycle. These results on optimum cellular cycles are patent pending in France.
Benefits: Radiance, smoothness, evenness of skin tone
Cyclin D1 on fibroblast cultures with or without treatment of PSC* at 0.5%
Strengthening of collagen And Hyaluronic structures
The elements of the dermal extracellular matrix (collagen, hyaluronic acid, elastin... ) are key to the aesthetic appearance of the skin. They give the dermis its biomechanical properties that enable it to change shape, compress and stretch. Its loss because of age and photoaging is directly related to the loss of firmness and density.
4G Plant Source Cells were the subject of a study on fibroblast synthesis, and especially that of collagen and hyaluronic acid.
Benefits: Firmness, density and hydration
