“Who has the cash to spend on a beauty product that costs R4000?” This is a question I’m asked time and time again.
Often, these ‘gold standard’ products that cost anywhere from R2500 upwards, are made using rare ingredients and are developed for women who’d rather not opt for invasive aesthetic procedures such as botox and fillers. And there are many of them. In fact, just last week I was chatting with two 30+ women (both in the beauty industry) who used the words “terrified”, “toxin” and “unnatural” when referring to Botox. Both said they would MUCH rather spend extra cash on a beauty product that’s proven to be effective, than have injectables in their face.
So, what ingredients are so precious that they warrant a price tag of R4000?
In the Southwest of France, deep under the boughs of a majestic oak tree, you’ll find one of nature’s rarest treasures – the Black Diamond Truffle. This is the key ingredient in the new Re-Nutriv Ultimate Diamond Sculpting/Refinishing Dual Infusion.

But why a rare truffle extract?
This precious, patented extract has a remarkable ability to promote skin’s natural energy and vitality while ensuring skin cells’ survival and increasing cellular energy. In addition, it also helps to dramatically increase skin’s natural energy and renewal abilities – helping activate and sustain a visibly younger, healthier look.
Re-Nutriv Ultimate Diamond Sculpting/Refinishing Dual Infusion (R4000) combines two elixirs that are sealed apart to preserve intense potency. Freshly activated upon application, they blend together in one moment of pure power. The Golden Vial features the exclusive Black Diamond Truffle Extract ingeniously blended with Estée Lauder’s most advanced youth-sustaining technologies for firmer skin that looks more sculpted, contoured and strikingly younger.
In the Golden Vial, the Black Diamond Truffle Extract is blended with ingredients that supports skin cells’ natural activation of SIRT-6 to help preserve and restore skin density, suppleness and bounce.
What is SIRT-6?
For the first time, new patented youth-sustaining technologies support skin cells’ natural activation of SIRT-6, one of skin’s most powerful longevity genes. SIRT-6 plays an essential role in skin by helping counter premature signs of aging through multiple biological pathways.
The gold vial also contains advanced lifting technologies that help promote skin’s natural production of collagen and elastin while Refined 24K Gold, in combination with other anti-irritants, helps calm and soothe the look of skin.
In the Platinum Vial, a high potency blend of skin refinishers gently resurfaces, retextures and smoothes skin. These powerful ingredients offer the ultimate in refinishing to help perfect and refine skin for a smoother, more even-toned look. South Sea Pearls and illuminating optics complement skin’s natural, instant radiance. The skin feels velvety smooth and looks perfected, more even-toned and naturally luminous.
The texture of the serum is silky and super hydrating. You use it every morning and evening on clean skin before applying your moisturiser. I’ve only been testing this for a week (5 days, to be exact) but I really like how radiant this serum leaves my skin looking. Also, I LOVE that it’s loaded with a ton of skin-beneficial antioxidants.
Then, there’s the Re-Nutriv Ultimate Diamond Transformative Energy Crème (R3900)
Again, this luxurious moisturiser contains extracts of the precious Black Diamond Truffle. The rare power of the precious extract is proven to have an astounding ability to stimulate skin vitality, supporting skin cells’ survival and increasing cellular energy to help activate and sustain a visibly younger, healthier look.
Additionally, the patent-pending Black Diamond Truffle Extract has been shown to work to promote a reduction in excess melanin for more even-toned looking skin.
Also included in the formula is the SIRT youth-sustaining technology. The longevity genes, SIRT-1, SIRT-3 and SIRT-6 play an important role in helping slow premature skin aging through multiple pathways. By helping support skin cells’ natural activation of these longevity genes, the Re-Nutriv Ultimate Diamond Transformative Energy Crème helps rejuvenate the look of skin and sustain its youthful appearance.
New testing shows that these patent pending technologies help increase skin’s natural collagen production by 215% after 72 hours while advanced lifting technologies help preserve and restore skin’s density.
You use it day and evening and it envelops the skin with nourishing moisture, making it feel refreshed and velvety soft. Special hydrating technology works to help improve skin’s ability to hydrate from the inside out, for a more lineless, firm, plump look. With continued use, skin’s protective barrier is repaired, increasing its resistance to environmental factors that can accelerate aging. Refined 24K Gold and powerful anti-irritants help ensure skin stays calm, soothed and comfortable while South Sea Pearls help create an instant lustrous, radiant look.
Both the Re-Nutriv Ultimate Diamond Sculpting/Refinishing Dual Infusion and the Re-Nutriv Ultimate Diamond Transformative Energy Crème are currently available at Estee Lauder counters nationwide.
