111SKIN

There is so much skin care launching at the moment, but this one from plastic surgeon, Dr Yannis Alexandrides, is causing an anti-ageing stir. It’s having a big launch into Harrods in April with masterclasses for customers to learn about the sceince.


What you need to know: 

– It’s very techy.

– 111SKIN uses space science technology (and that means testing ingredients in space but I’ll have to ‘fess up that I don’t think Dr Yannis went there himself!).


– It uses patented ingredient NAC Y2 to target skin on a cellular level. The formula combines NAC, Vitamin C and Escin (to increase blood circulation). NAC and Vit C increase Glutathione, a vital antioxidant that protects the skin from environmental extremes. 


– 111SKIN works from within the skin’s cells to strengthen, and therefore give younger looking skin.


The product range is for those who love sciency skin-care and ingredients with a bit of a twist; for me, I’ll probably never get my head round it, but what is more interesting is that it is causing a buzz in the beauty industry; and if they’re buzzing it means it is probably rather good.
