Estée Lauder announces an exclusive partnership with Hacienda AltaGracia, Auberge Resorts Collection in Costa Rica, debuting its first Skin Longevity Institute in the Americas within the resort’s world-renowned Casa de Agua Spa. 

The experience-led programming and immersive treatments are designed to awaken vitality, restore balance, and reconnect guests with the simple joys of life inspired by the resort’s natural surroundings.

Located adjacent to one of the world’s five “Blue Zones,” regions recognized for their high concentration of centenarians, Hacienda AltaGracia offers a transformative journey grounded in trusted longevity practices. 

Justin Boxford, Global Brand President, Estée Lauder, said,

 “When we launched our Skin Longevity platform here more than a year ago, we knew that it was just the beginning… Through exclusive age reversal skincare treatments and holistic wellness activations, the Skin Longevity Institute will provide the ultimate elevated Estée Lauder experience for guests, all inspired by our expertise in skin longevity science.”

Backed by over 15 years of skin longevity research, the Estée Lauder Skin Longevity Institute at Hacienda AltaGracia offers guests an immersive experience that fuses luxury Re-Nutriv skincare powered cutting-edge Skin Longevity science.

Exclusive to Hacienda AltaGracia, Estée Lauder has added three new Re-Nutriv facial treatments to its existing offerings. Each treatment is designed to deliver exceptional, customized results while bringing the brand’s Skin Longevity philosophy to life. 

In addition to the facial treatments, estheticians will utilize the EstéeLab Skin Pro, a skin diagnostic tool, to analyze skin and develop a customized facial protocol for guests.

Vivianne Garcia-Tunon, Vice President of Wellbeing, Auberge Resorts Collection, said,

“The launch of the Estée Lauder Skin Longevity Institute at Hacienda AltaGracia represents an exciting evolution of our immersive well-being programming—seamlessly integrating advanced skincare, science-backed longevity practices, and the restorative power of our natural surroundings.”

Throughout the partnership, Hacienda AltaGracia will host top wellness practitioners for onsite residences, offering customized programming grounded in longevity principles.

For the May opening of the Skin Longevity Institute, two members of Estée Lauder’s Longevity Collective will be in residence at Hacienda AltaGracia. Residencies will occur throughout the coming months. Debut residencies include:

  • Manjit Devgun: Mind Coach and Mindful Movement Practitioner who will host sessions tailored to unlocking new depths of longevity and well-being through energetic healing modalities, rejuvenating breathwork and mindful movement. Manjit also created a custom meditation that will be incorporated into the beginning of each Re-Nutriv treatment at the Skin Longevity Institute.
  • Crystal Greene: an esthetician and Estée Lauder Global Re-Nutriv Skincare Ambassador, who will provide bespoke treatments that combine luxury Re-Nutriv skincare with her facial techniques to deliver a transformative experience for guests.
