Estée Lauder Unveils ‘Mastering Skin Longevity’ Science Platform
The Estée Lauder Companies Inc. (NYSE: EL) unveiled its Mastering Skin Longevity platform at the China International Import Expo (CIIE), held November 5–10, 2026, in Shanghai. The initiative aims to guide the next generation of ingredient, formulation, and product innovation across flagship brands, including La Mer, Clinique, and The Ordinary.
At the heart of the platform is research into Master Regulators—biological proteins and pathways that can influence multiple hallmarks of skin aging. Scientists at Estée Lauder’s Longevity Labs in Melville, New York, and Shanghai are exploring molecules such as:
- Sirtuins, which regulate cellular repair and stress responses.
- AMPK, which helps manage cellular energy and metabolic adaptation.
- mTOR, which governs cellular renewal and repair signaling.
The announcement builds on the company’s 80 years of scientific leadership and more than two decades of dedicated longevity research. As skin longevity emerges as a significant consumer trend, Estée Lauder is positioning itself in this growing category, with new product launches expected in the coming months.
