Understanding Skin Aging: The Science Behind Timeless Skin

The quiet evolution beneath the surface

Skin aging is not a sudden event — it’s a slow, beautiful evolution written into every cell of our being. Over time, our skin reflects both our biology and our story: years lived, emotions felt, sunlight embraced. At Loshen & Crem, we believe understanding this process is the first step to caring for it — with intelligence, empathy, and the right dermocosmetic support.

What happens as the skin matures

In youth, the skin operates like a orchestrated symphony.

• Keratinocytes renew rapidly, maintaining a smooth, hydrated surface.
• Melanocytes distribute pigment evenly, protecting against UV rays.
• Fibroblasts — the architects of the dermis — produce firm collagen and elastic fibers that give the skin bounce and tone.
• And in the hypodermis, a cushion of healthy lipids shapes the face and protects it from stress.

With time, this rhythm slows. Cell renewal takes longer, hydration diminishes, and collagen fibers fragment. Microcirculation weakens, reducing nutrient flow, and the protective lipid layer thins — leading to loss of volume and elasticity. The result: skin becomes finer, drier, and more delicate, with visible lines that tell the story of our days.

The two faces of aging: intrinsic and extrinsic

Skin aging is influenced by two powerful forces:

1. Intrinsic aging — the natural, genetic rhythm of time. It’s the gradual decline in cell efficiency and collagen production that occurs in all of us, leading to fine lines, dryness, and reduced resilience.
2. Extrinsic aging — the result of lifestyle and environment: UV exposure, pollution, smoking, stress, and sugar intake. These factors accelerate oxidative stress and inflammation, creating uneven tone, deep wrinkles, and loss of firmness.

While we can’t stop intrinsic aging, we can profoundly influence the extrinsic one — by nourishing the skin with targeted, intelligent care.

Valmont: Cellular rejuvenation rooted in Swiss expertise

At Loshen & Crem, we hold a deep respect for brands that merge artistry with science, and Valmont is one of the finest examples. Known for its DNA-based cellular cosmetics, Valmont supports the skin’s natural renewal process by delivering active ingredients where the skin needs them most.

Through exclusive ingredients such as Triple DNA, RNA, and glacial spring water, Valmont helps restore the communication between cells, encouraging fibroblasts to rebuild collagen and elastin. The result is not just smoother skin, but a visibly re-energized complexion that feels alive again.

For those noticing the first signs of fatigue or deeper structural changes, Valmont’s formulas act as both prevention and restoration, slowing cellular decline while reawakening luminosity.

Introducing the new L’Elixir des Glaciers Serum Majestueux

For those seeking the most refined expression of skin rejuvenation, Valmont unveils the newest jewel in its collection — the L’Elixir des Glaciers Serum Majestueux Vos Yeux et Visage.

This exceptional serum, crafted with honey, propolis, and royal jelly, draws inspiration from the tireless work of the bee and the purity of the Swiss Alps. Together, these rare ingredients strengthen the skin barrier, deeply nourish, and visibly firm the skin — enhancing both tone and texture.

Beyond its sensorial richness, this serum works at the cellular level to improve elasticity, reduce signs of fatigue, and restore radiance. A masterpiece of cellular science, it embodies Valmont’s timeless belief: true beauty is regeneration in motion.
