2012: Black Pine
Black Pine is KORRES major anti-ageing pillar globally. Here is the Black Pine Full Circle journey:
Soil Lab: The Pine species have thrived in the Mediterranean for 3,5M years. Black Pine is nature’s chameleon, it survives on the mountains, in the cold, in heat, and in dryness, even in highly polluted cities. We source our precious Black Pine from Pindus, Greece, under the guidance of the Directorate of Forests of Grevena.
Extraction Lab: KORRES Black Pine bark extract , a global first, is added to WINCI.
Formulation Lab: The Black Pine collection "bio-mimics" and recovers the initial symmetry of our face. Lifted facial appearance in 14 days
Design Lab: 90% recyclable packaging. Paper packaging is FSC certified (Forest Stewardship Council)
Recycle Lab: Fully operational in Greece. Send us back your empties. Plastic, paper, and glass are all recycled.
2006: Production Plant
The need to take ownership and full responsibility led to one of the hardest decisions: that of creating our own Production Plant!
After years of planning, looking for the best equipment and securing the funds, finally in 2006, 10 years after the Company was born, we were able to produce our own products!
With top quality in mind, our Production Facility competes with the best international standards:
ISO 9001 (Quality Management), ISO 14001 (Environmental Management System) and ISO 22716 (Good Manufacturing Practices -GMPs- for Cosmetics) certified.
Water Purification Facility:
In the heart of our Production Facility there is a state-of-the-art Water Purification Facility that produces the ultra-purified water used in all our products.
Our zero-waste Purified Water System combines Reverse Osmosis and Deionization purification methods, providing a continuous flow. To guarantee our high water quality we follow an extended control plan, checking 10 different sampling points of the flow daily. Our KORRES Water, with conductivity below 1μS, is almost 5x more pure than EU Pharmaceutical Standards and 200x more pure than the bottled water we drink!
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.
2000: Formulation Lab & Greek Yoghurt
As it was impossible to find the natural formulas we were dreaming of, we created our own Formulation Lab to avoid parabens, silicones, mineral oil, propylene glycol and many more chemicals, at a time when this approach was extremely rare.
The first product created in the KORRES Formulation Lab was our Greek Yoghurt Cooling Gel!
The idea apparently came from the Greek tradition of comforting sunburn and sun-stressed skin with Yoghurt. But going into the lab with real edible Yoghurt was a disaster! It took 3 years of meticulous and ground-breaking formulation work to stabilize edible Yoghurt with all its amazing benefits in a skincare formula, for the first time ever globally! Our Greek Yoghurt Cooling Gel finally launched in 2003. Our grandmothers were honoured! And the Formulation Lab was off to an incredible journey!
