2009: Extraction Lab
In our early years in the business, we were shocked to discover that we were not able to utilize the amazing Greek herbs in our formulations because there were no extraction-processing units in Greece!
We would have to export the herbs and then import the herbal extracts. So we set our minds on developing our own exemplary Extraction Lab & Facility, in-house.
We partnered with the National & Kapodistrian University of Athens, Department of Pharmacy, Section of Pharmacognosy & Natural Products Chemistry, to design a fully green, clean, and zero-waste Extraction Lab. We only use natural solvents and processing techniques that help maintain the integrity of all precious active ingredients of our extracts and oils. After the extraction, all solid naturally-processed waste ends back into the farmers to be used as fertilizer. A Full Circle inside the bigger Circle!
1996: The Company
Lena Philippou was the first to join the newborn Company, fresh out of the University as a Chemical Engineer.
“I was one of very few girls at the time that chose to go to Engineering school! My mind just works that way, I am all about analytical thinking and problem-solving. That does not mean I knew what I wanted to do after my studies! Because apart from being a linear thinker, I am a passionate person. I love nature and all things natural, and above all, I am a Greek soul. I am simply in love with Greece. Walking into the original Korres pharmacy, I instantly knew I wanted to be part of this world. All aspects of my personality were matching! And I saw a purpose! Natural products back in 1996 were all brown, boring and simplistic. I set my mind on combining nature and science to create the most effective natural products out there! And made in Greece! All it takes is dream, work, and a little love.”

Testing Confirms Korres Out-Performs
Some people claim all luxury skincare products generate underwhelming results. But as an ingredient-conscious consumer not easily wooed, I investigate those claims thoroughly before endorsing items that work.
Independent lab analysis published in the medical journal Skin Pharmacology and Physiology in 2013 tested a Korres Wild Rose + Vitamin C Advanced Brightening Sleeping Facial much like the one raved about earlier.
Researchers found consistent use improved visible wrinkles by 60%, increased skin radiance by 51% and reduced uneven pigmentation by 41% compared to baseline measurements.
Furthermore, dermatology clinics testing Korres products under real-world conditions confirm their antioxidant-rich formulas out-perform placebo and comparable items for improving visible signs of aging.
I adore brands that can back up claims with hard facts! Based on my first-hand experience, lab analysis and dermatology trials, I wholeheartedly recommend Korres for clean skincare that works.
