Created by Dr Colette Haydon
A renowned French Dermo-Pharmacist with 40 years experience in cutting-edge skincare formulation and skin expertise.
Created in her London laboratory, where Colette formulated advanced skincare products for the most coveted brands prior to the creation of her own brand, lixirskin.
Lixirskin was born from the deep concern of observing people overwhelmed by advice from non-professionals, too often conflicting, and using too many products containing too many highly active ingredients - applied one after the other.
Product layering overloads the skin leading to skin exhaustion and counterproductive effects.
While everyone is searching for efficacy, the first goal should be protecting your skin integrity and energy: the pillar of GOOD SKIN. Without it, there is no efficacy.
Skin Minimalism
The cosmetics industry creates names for products which have the same base and do the same thing – day cream, primer, night cream, moisturiser, serum etc. A good formula does it all.
We don’t believe in having products dedicated to the face, neck or eye. There is no such thing as a product which is good for one part of your skin and not the other.
All skin shares the same everyday needs. For these essentials, we’ve got you covered with multi-tasking heroes that make an instant difference and work for everyone without overloading your skin.
Switching is unique to lixirskin
NIGHT SWITCH are used one at a time, then allow your skin to rest and reset, before switching to another. Skin likes change, switching stimulates the skin to get better results. Active ingredients for specific skin concerns when used for too long saturate the skin and no longer deliver results. It is good to switch them around to avoid the plateau effect.
Products with too many active ingredients which work on different metabolic pathways confuse the skin. It works too hard, cell energy is depleted, the skin gets tired and gives up. It is better to ask the skin to do one thing at a time, but to do it well. Layering too many products is likely to produce the same result. There is also potential for counteraction and irritation if not paired correctly.
