DISCOVERED
Here’s what we genuinely live for at VIOLET GREY: genius moments, never-before-seen innovation. 111Skin delivered that and more at a recent breakfast meeting with the VIOLET LAB. The experts in doctor-developed, results-driven skin care, widely known as the masters of masking, had news to share, but it was confidential. After solemnly swearing to secrecy, we were handed something we wish we’d thought of ourselves: Topical patches that promised to deliver a pure dose of retinol, vitamin C, and hyaluronic acid via microcones molded from the free-dried actives. They would push the ingredients deep within the skin and the adhesive patches would seal it all in overnight, preventing evaporation and ensuring maximum efficacy. Our evening routines were about to get a serious upgrade.
TESTED
At home, VG editors dutifully applied the sheer patches, in shapes designed to fit specific areas of the face, from crow’s feet and the “eleven” lines between the brows to nasolabial folds. Prickly, but not painful; comfortable enough to sleep in. Everyone loved the idea of a targeted treatment that we could fold into our regimens and use when our complexions especially needed a boost. We couldn’t wait to hear what the Committee thought, next.
“I love these patches! The microcone technology provides two times the penetration to help target difficult-to-treat areas around the eyes.”
–DR. DENDY ENGELMAN M.D., Board-Certified Dermatologist and MOHS Surgeon
“These cutting-edge patches work overnight to visibly improve fine lines and crow’s feet. I’m very impressed and very happy with the results.”
–LAURA DYER, Physician’s Assistant & Cosmetic Injector
“I love these smart patches to use in areas where we tend to see the first signs of aging, like the laugh lines and around the eyes. I use these overnight so they can do the heavy duty work. My skin never disappoints the next morning—firmer and rested.”
–CRYSTAL GREENE, Aesthetician
