The Essence

How Luzern Formulates Differently

At Luzern, we believe the difference between good skincare and exceptional skincare isn't simply the ingredients. It's how they're sourced, extracted, combined, and delivered. Because formulation determines how skin responds, and ultimately, the results you see.

Swiss Alpine botanicals thrive under intense environmental conditions, developing high concentrations of antioxidants and soothing compounds, to support healthy looking, more resilient skin.

Delicate vitamins, peptides and botanical extracts are mixed at low temperatures to minimize heat exposure and help preserve their integrity and performance. 

Proven actives are used at purposeful levels, while unnecessary fillers and potentially irritating ingredients are left out. Every ingredient is carefully selected and balanced for visible performance and skin compatibility.

Intelligent delivery systems and advanced fermentation technology help optimize ingredient availability, compatibility, and performance within the formula and on the skin. 

Skincare designed to deliver more than the sum of its ingredients - supporting hydration, visible vitality, and skin that looks more radiant and resilient over time.

HOW TO USE

Apply morning and evening after cleansing and before serum. 

Spray onto face, neck, and décolleté.  

The lightweight essence helps saturate skin with hydration while preparing it to better absorb the treatments layered afterward. 

pro tip

For a more replenishing ritual, apply multiple layers to help boost visible plumpness, softness, and radiance.

MFC Multi-Fermentation Oxygen Complex

Our proprietary MFC™ Complex is a supercharged cocktail of actives with enhanced bioavailability thanks to the power of fermentation. The transformative blend uses Oxygen, Co-enzyme Q10, Hyaluronic Acid, Probiotics, and Vitamins to breathe life into skin for newfound radiance.

Swiss Alpine Organics

Extracted from rare flowers and plants sustainably harvested in the Swiss Alps, these extracts are packed with antioxidant and rejuvenating properties that aim to support skin and protect it from environmental stressors.

Hyaluronic Acid

This naturally occurring molecule is crucial for attracting and retaining moisture in the skin for a plump, bouncy, dewy result.

Glycerin

Glycerin is beloved for attracting and retaining moisture while being lightweight and non-pore-clogging, making it an ideal hydrating ingredient for soft, supple skin.

Witch Hazel (alcohol-free)

This powerful plant has astringent properties that help refine and tighten the appearance of pores.

Green Tea Leaf Extract

Packed with polyphenols, which are strong antioxidants to help protect from environmental aggressors and pollution.
