For over 15 years, Guerlain has been a pioneer in bee-powered skincare, setting new standards in the science of skin repair with its acclaimed Abeille Royale line. Drawing on the natural restorative power of bee products, the House’s research has uncovered profound parallels between the healing of damaged skin and the repair mechanisms needed to combat signs of aging. This unique expertise, backed by nine patents, has now led to its latest breakthrough: the Bee Lab Shot™, an innovative complement to the iconic Youth Watery Oil Serum.
A Scientific Leap from the Guerlain Bee Lab
At the heart of this innovation lies the Bee Lab, Guerlain’s dedicated research platform focused on the remarkable properties of bee-derived ingredients. Here, top international scientists explore the extraordinary repair potential of honeys sourced from around the world.
The result is Bee Lab Shot™, a disruptive formula designed to deliver targeted rejuvenation when skin is fatigued by stress, pollution or lifestyle factors. Used in tandem with ten drops of the new Youth Watery Oil Serum, Bee Lab Shot™ offers a concentrated repair boost, visibly revitalising the complexion.
Youth Watery Oil Serum: The Core of the Abeille Royale Ritual
The Youth Watery Oil Serum itself reflects Guerlain’s mastery of formulation. Built around a patented blend of rare honeys from Ouessant (France), Trøgstad (Norway), and Connemara (Ireland), this serum activates the skin’s own mesenchymal stromal cells — critical components for tissue repair. With 99% naturally-derived ingredients and deep-repair technology, the serum helps smooth wrinkles, restore radiance and promote youthful resilience from the very first application.
Bee Lab Shot™: A Targeted Solution for Stressed Skin
When environmental or lifestyle stressors overwhelm the skin’s repair capacity, the Bee Lab Shot™ offers an intensive remedy. Each sphere contains a potent concentration of vitamin Cg, hyaluronic acid, and Black Bee honey. Thanks to a patented production method, these ingredients are locked in pure form, frozen at -40°C and transformed into 100% naturally-derived spheres. When combined with the Youth Watery Oil Serum, the sphere melts instantly, creating a supercharged age-defying treatment.
Designed as a 7-day intensive cure, Bee Lab Shot™ delivers measurable results: deep wrinkles appear reduced, skin regains radiance and energy, and the complexion is visibly refreshed.
Proven Efficacy, Responsible Beauty
Clinical tests reveal Bee Lab Shot™ enhances collagen synthesis, boosts skin firmness, and smooths fine lines. Norwegian honey fortifies the skin barrier while hyaluronic acid delivers lasting hydration — essential for maintaining youthful, supple skin.
But Guerlain’s commitment extends beyond beauty. Through its “Guerlain for Bees” Conservation Programme, the brand actively protects these essential pollinators, supporting global initiatives such as the Ouessant Island Black Bee Conservation, the Women for Bees p
rogramme in partnership with UNESCO, and its international Bee School workshops, designed to educate the next generation on the importance of bee preservation.
The Future of Skincare, Inspired by Nature
With Bee Lab Shot™, Guerlain offers more than an exceptional skincare innovation — it bridges science and sustainability, luxury and responsibility. This new step in the Abeille Royale routine underlines the House’s belief that true beauty must also protect the world that inspires it.
