"  What does weirdo architect Buckminster Fuller have to do with your potentially sagging face? No, this isn&amp;#039;t a riddle; it&amp;#039;s the story behind Chanel&amp;#039;s new Ultra Correction Lift\u2014a skin-care range inspired by the visionary engineer&amp;#039;s theory of tensegrity (the principle behind his famous superstrong geodesic domes). Fuller observed that natural forms\u2014such as spiderwebs, cells, and tissues\u2014are built using an overall distribution of tension, whereas man-made structures derive their stability from the top-to-bottom compression of building blocks. Working with Donald Ingber, MD, from Harvard Medical School, Chanel researchers have translated this concept to the skin, theorizing that our complexions lose surface firmness due to diminishing underlying tension. They found that tensin\u2014a protein that essentially functions like pegs in a tent to keep tissue taut, anchoring and connecting cells to the dermal network\u2014deteriorates with age. The company aims to restimulate the protein to youthful levels via a proprietary ingredient derived from the Manila elemi tree, the bark of which has long been treasured in Chinese medicine for its healing properties. Increasing tensin also boosts collagen and elastin synthesis, tightening and lifting the mesh of skin tissue. Consider it plumped from within: Like Fuller&amp;#039;s domes, the weblike collagen infrastructure is stabilized and lifted. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
