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” meaning “division” in the sense of “cell multiplication”.

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! This is an incredible reservoir just waiting to be activated based on our needs, says Xavier.

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 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.

But meristematic cells are present in small quantities in the plant. It is impossible 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.to guarantee a perfect quantity of Plant Source Cells.

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. 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 in La Gallicy.

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.

Each jar contains also a cocktail of antioxidant and anti-aging ingredients for a more radiant skin, reinforced by 3 vitamins: Vitamins E, A, F. Cornflower water has been added for its soothing properties.

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. The entire formula is made to offer skin the hydration it needs every day.
