Dior Capture OX-C Treatment Day and Night Crème
In the rarefied realm of luxury skincare, true innovation is molecular. With the Dior Capture OX-C Treatment Day Crème and Night Crème, Dior Beauty unveils a protocol that works relentlessly across 24 hours, synchronised with the skin’s circadian rhythms and powered by one of biology’s most essential forces, oxygen.
“Oxygen is the source of all life,” explains Dr. Patricia Ogilvie, dermatologist, scientific advisor, and member of the Dior Reverse Aging Board “Without oxygen everything dies. Yet, the mechanistic and molecular understanding of how oxygen is transported in the body is relatively new and fascinating.”
At the heart of Dior Capture lies a paradox of extraordinary technological complexity housed within formulas of remarkable purity. Each cream is composed of over 90% natural-origin ingredients. The result is a powerful skincare duo that pushes the boundaries of oxygen management, collagen preservation, and visible firmness.
The Capture OX-C Treatment Day Crème activates oxygen at the cellular level to amplify
collagen production. In fact, collagen synthesis is tripled. This high-tech balm, created by regenerative science is both protective and nutritive, mirroring the skin’s own architecture.
A sensorial experience, it melts seamlessly without greasiness. Available in two textures, the weightless Soft, and the decadent Rich, both deliver identical efficacy, adapting to climate, lifestyle, and your skin’s bespoke needs.
While we sleep, collagen production naturally declines, and degradation accelerates. Research now confirms that Collagen Type 1 production drops by as much as 28% overnight. Your skin, unprotected, quietly loses what it worked all day to build.
The Capture OX-C Treatment Night Crème is designed not to stimulate, but to defend and restore. Its mission is preservation.
New research conducted by Dior Beauty revealed a critical truth; at night, the skin requires protection rather than activation. To answer this, Dior Science developed Prolatonine™, a patented technology created exclusively to reduce overnight collagen loss. Acting as a molecular shield, it offers up to 99% protection against collagen degradation while the skin is at its most vulnerable.
After just seven nights, skin appears 18% more lifted. After one month, it is three times more toned and four times firmer. After two months, visible signs of fatigue are reduced sixfold. Used together, the Day and Night Crèmes deliver a clinically proven 70% increase in skin firmness.
“Every morning your skin is the mirror of your deepest emotions,” says Marie Videau, President of LVMH Recherche.
Skin ageing is not solely biological. It is emotional, neurological, cumulative. Stress, fatigue, laughter, your entire life leaves its trace. This intimate dialogue between skin and brain begins at a shared embryonic origin, creating a permanent feedback loop. What happens in the brain appears on the skin, and what happens to the skin influences the brain in return.
This is why LVMH Recherche goes far beyond surface correction. Its commitment is to decipher the deepest biological mechanisms of skin ageing at tissue level, cellular level, and ultimately the molecular level, where the true keys to longevity reside.
For over 50 years, Dior Science, powered by LVMH Recherche Parfums & Cosmétiques, has operated at the frontier between high-end cosmetics and regenerative scientific medicine. Today, that commitment is upheld by more than 650 research collaborators, five global skin expertise centres, and over 300 registered patents.
The ambition is precise, not only to correct visible signs of ageing, but to slow, and even reverse, the processes that cause them.
According to Virginie Couturaud, Dior’s Scientific Communication Director, oxygen management represents a turning point. “Today we are stronger than before. It is why we want to continue and for all the people that use dermatological products to have this kind of regenerative medicine, it is the key to enhance the beauty and the longevity of the skin.”
Dr. Ogilvie, echoes this sentiment. “In my experience of 30 years in dermatology, helping women significantly to gain confidence. That is the true magic of super efficient skincare and aesthetic medicine. I love my job and I love to be able to operate with pioneers in the field because we do so much more than just superficially making women look more beautiful.”
That, perhaps, is the ultimate luxury. A skincare protocol that operates invisibly, continuously, and intelligently, protecting collagen by night, amplifying it by day, and honouring the skin as both a biological and emotional organ. This marriage of science and skin is a reminder that wellness, much like oxygen, is essential to life.
