ELC will step-change innovation by translating innovative anti-inflammation research into cutting-edge skin care solutions

The Estée Lauder Companies Inc. (NYSE: EL) (ELC) today announced a collaboration with biotechnology company, Serpin Pharma, that aims to explore how their anti-inflammatory research can be applied in cosmetics to deliver significant skin care longevity benefits to consumers around the world.

The exclusive partnership will accelerate ELC’s focus on transformative product innovation by applying insights from Serpin Pharma’s two decades of anti-inflammatory research, which has yielded proprietary biotech technology demonstrating remarkable efficacy mitigating harmful inflammation and enhancing cell resiliency. Serpin Pharma identified a key portion of a superfamily of proteins called SERPINs (Serine Protease Inhibitors) that enhance the body’s natural ability to heal cells experiencing inflammation. Together, the companies are investigating how this innovative technology, which leverages the body’s innate immune response, can be harnessed to address skin irritation, aging, and sensitivity. Scientific studies are underway to demonstrate how Serpin’s technology can be applied to cosmetic products to rapidly and visibly reduce skin aging and irritation.

“This novel technology will advance our transformative innovation agenda by pushing the boundaries of breakthrough scientific discovery,” said Carl Haney, Executive Vice President, Global Innovation and Research and Development (R&D), The Estée Lauder Companies. “In partnership with Serpin Pharma, we’re exploring powerful new biological pathways and cutting-edge biotech ingredients to rapidly mitigate visible skin irritation and sensitivity for our prestige beauty consumers worldwide.”

“Serpin Pharma was founded on the principles of biomimicry and how nature solves for signs of trauma and injury,” said Cohava Gelber, PhD, MBA, Founder, Executive Chairperson and CEO, Serpin Pharma. “We’re taking a novel approach by tapping into the body’s innate mechanism for resolving inflammation. We are proud to partner with ELC to explore how our powerful biotechnology can be applied to cosmetics and skin care.”

This work builds on ELC’s decades-long leadership in longevity science, biotechnology and fermentation. The company is step-changing innovation by partnering with biotech companies across sectors to commercialize their breakthrough innovations and applying their cutting-edge technologies to developing skin care solutions for consumers. It also reinforces ELC’s commitment to creating transformative product innovation to deliver fast-to-market, on-trend innovation across in-demand subcategories, benefits, and occasions, as part of ELC’s newly unveiled Beauty Reimagined strategic vision.
