Founded in 2012, 111SKIN was originally developed by Dr. Alexandrides to accelerate his patients’ healing time following procedures. At the heart of the brand is its innovative NAC Y2, a pioneering complex designed to support skin repair and maintain a healthy, radiant and resilient complexion. Building on the foundation of this clinical expertise, 111SKIN has developed a portfolio of more than 30 products, anchored by its Black Diamond and Reparative collections and priced from $50 to $1,000.

“Skin care is entering a new phase, shaped by the convergence of procedures, longevity and beauty, as consumers increasingly seek products that deliver visible, treatment-inspired results,” said Stéphane de La Faverie, President and Chief Executive Officer, The Estée Lauder Companies. “111SKIN exemplifies this shift, translating Dr. Alexandrides’ more than 35 years of surgical and aesthetic treatment experience into high-performance luxury skin care inspired by in-clinic treatments and built on clinical insight, next-generation actives, powerful formulas and proven efficacy. This investment, grounded in consumer-centricity and transformative innovation, reflects our Beauty Reimagined vision and underscores the significant opportunity we see to support the brand’s continued growth – expanding its global reach while preserving the distinctive approach that has made it so relevant with today’s consumers.”

111SKIN is a luxury clinical skin care brand, operating in a fast-growing segment where medical expertise and powerful high-performance formulations are increasingly shaping consumer demand. The brand distributes through luxury retail, e-commerce and high-end spa channels – including Harrods, Bluemercury, Nordstrom, Mandarin Oriental, and Aman – and has a robust direct-to-consumer business representing approximately 20% of sales, reflecting strong digital engagement with prestige consumers. The brand has a diversified global footprint, with North America representing approximately 40% of 2025 sales, and an established presence across China, the United Kingdom, Europe and Asia Pacific.

“We are thrilled to be partnering with The Estée Lauder Companies and to unlock an exciting new chapter for 111SKIN,” said Dr. Yannis and Eva Alexandrides, co-founders of 111SKIN. “We look forward to building on our momentum and driving future growth together,” added CEO Vanessa Goddevrind.

Dr. Alexandrides will remain actively involved in the brand and will continue to lead 111SKIN alongside its experienced management team.

This investment aligns with The Estée Lauder Companies’ continued focus on science-driven innovation, as 111SKIN’s advanced NAC Y2 technology and commitment to clinical-led product development reflect consumers’ growing preference for high-performance and preventative skin care.

There exists a moment when the world takes on a profound intensity, when the sun begins its descent and the sky turns to amber just before surrendering to the night. In that captivating golden hour, the sky retains the warmth of the day while its memory lingers in the air.

From one horizon to the other, this light envelops the landscape, erasing distances. Such radiance exerts a singular power of attraction. Gradually, the world seems transformed by a new energy as the first stirrings of evening take shape. Everything quickens and intensifies, as if carried by a single impulse. Ambre Levant is born of the instant when amber light rises, uniting sky and earth with its colour.

The Precious Alliance of Amber and Oud

With the precision and generosity that define his style, Jacques Cavallier Belletrud imagines a composition that captures an instant and expresses its full intensity. The Master Perfumer signs a fragrance with a thousand nuances, worked like a burst of golden radiance that unfurls to reveal all its richness. This creation is anchored in the union of two emblematic raw materials — amber and oud — brought together in an interpretation of striking modernity. “Amber has been with me since the very beginning and has always held the same fascination for me. As a child, it was one of the first notes I discovered in my father’s laboratory.  It has guided my work ever since.” Here, he embraces amber in all its dimensions: the richness of a resinous amber, allied with the contemporary tonalities of ambergris, with its saline tones and profoundly human animality. From this union emerges a creation in which the ancestral traditions of perfume and its most contemporary language speak to one another, revealing a new radiance.

The Master Perfumer began with a luscious mandarin, whose ripe freshness brings a gourmand brightness to the skin. Its fruity accents call forth a breath of warm spices: effusive cardamom, luminous cinnamon, an intriguing note of white pepper, and a touch of saffron to intensify warmth. Together, they lend the composition its beguiling tension and a gentle evocation of Eastern indulgences. Then the amber notes unfold in full, with the resinous warmth of labdanum, the purity of white incense, and the mineral vibration of a contemporary ambergris giving the accord its captivating radiance. The alliance is then sealed with an exceptional essence of oud, sourced in Bangladesh from a supply exclusive to Louis Vuitton. This ‘black gold’, an emblematic treasure of Middle Eastern perfumery, multiplies tenfold the composition’s depth and intensity. For Jacques Cavallier Belletrud, it is among the most sensual woods that exist: “This one is unique, of exceptional quality. Its woody character, of rare refinement, reveals a very subtle animality and an elegance that is at once spicy and ambered.” The absolute amber signature, Ambre Levant draws out the light of the golden hour and extends its radiance onto the skin.

The Flacon

The iconic Louis Vuitton flacon, rendered in transparent black glass, here takes on a deep, warm amber hue. The radiance of the golden hour seems to emanate from within the glass itself. This flacon may be refilled at stores equipped with a perfume fountain.

Louis Vuitton’s Exceptional Oud

In the northeast of Bangladesh, in the misty, tropical region of Sylhet, oud forms in the heart of aquilaria forests, behind curtains of mangrove that filter out the light. There, over the course of many long years, a natural infection is triggered, giving rise to a dark and precious resin  that  artisans extract with remarkable precision and skill. Each tree is harvested at a rhythm that respects biodiversity and preserves the balance of the forest. It is at the heart of this region that Louis Vuitton has forged an exclusive partnership with a family that has preserved this savoir-faire for 200 years. This supply chain cultivates the luxury of time. It takes no less than 30 years for the resin to develop its full aromatic complexity and richness. The family allows the trees time to reach that degree of maturity — a rare patience that endows the material with exceptional quality. This deliberately rarefied production offers the Maison an oud whose clarity and refinement make it a precious ingredient, far removed from the saturated clichés that surround it. For Jacques Cavallier Belletrud, oud is bound to a formative memory: he first encountered its emanations as a young apprentice — an olfactory shock that marked the beginning of a fascination that has endured ever since. This quest led him to lands where oud is tended, harvested and distilled as a living heritage. A single drop is enough to conjure a distant horizon. In Louis Vuitton creations, this oud reveals a majestic, profound and contemporary elegance. At once a botanical treasure and a cultural patrimony, it constitutes for the Maison material for the future, capable of inspiring new modes of expression while preserving a precious heritage.

Edwards is a fragrance taxonomist, historian, and the founding editor of the Fragrances of the World reference books and database. He created the iconic Fragrance Wheel and pioneered the development of online fragrance finders. Over a career spanning more than forty years, Michael and his team have classified and matched over 60,000 fragrances—family by family, scent by scent. He is the author of Perfume Legends (1996; updated 2019), a seminal work tracing the evolution of French fragrances. Its companion volume, American Legends (2024), took thirty years to research. With a foreword by the late Leonard A. Lauder, it traces the evolution of American fragrances from 1752 to the present day.

A tradition at the Awards luncheon and one of its most celebratory moments, was the announcement of the winners of five of the eighteen categories including Editorial of the Year; Fragrance Innovation of the Year; Indie Fragrance of the Year; and Packaging of the Year in both the Ultra Luxury & Luxury and Prestige & Popular categories. Winners of the remaining fourteen categories will be revealed at the iconic Fragrance Foundation Awards ceremony at Lincoln Center in June where two awards of distinction will also be presented including the just announced Lifetime Achievement Perfumer and the 2026 Hall of Fame Award to Nordstrom announced earlier this year.

“I started Reale Actives after years of struggling with acne and trying products that either did not work or were too harsh for my sensitive skin,” said Earle, who recently placed second on ABC’s reality television show Dancing With The Stars.

“I was constantly confused about what routine was actually right for me, and so many products felt overly clinical, complicated and honestly not very fun. Working closely with my dermatologist, we created a streamlined routine of clinically proven formulas that transformed my skin and my confidence. After dealing with cystic acne my whole life, I learned that consistency and a gentle approach are what finally helped me get it under control. These products keep my skin balanced through long days of filming, travel and heavy make-up. My hope is that Reale Actives helps people feel confident enough to live their lives fully – because your skin should not be the thing that holds you back,” she says.

The vegan formulas launching in Reale Actives first drop are: Get Bare Makeup Melting Cleansing Balm, Pore Power Exfoliating HA + BHA Gel Cleanser, Go Deep Mandelic Acid Serum and Derm More Barrier Boosting Moisturizer.

“Despite affecting millions of people, the acne skin care category has remained surprisingly outdated – often overly aggressive, unnecessarily complicated, and, honestly, a little joyless,” said Andrea Blieden, CEO of Reale Actives. “Alix has spent years openly sharing her acne journey with her followers, which makes her one of the most authentic voices in this space. With Reale Actives, we set out to create dermatologist-developed formulations, clinically validated ingredients and a streamlined routine that actually works with the chaos of real life. Ultimately, we are building a brand that delivers serious clinical results while reminding people that acne does not define them – and it cannot dim their spark.”

The non-comedogenic line ranges from $28 to $39 and boasts travel-friendly packaging.
