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.”
- Lena Philippou, Chemical Engineer
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!
An Insider Look at Korres Origins & Values
Brainchild of husband-and-wife team Georgios and Lena Korres, this pioneering Greek brand burst onto the beauty scene in 1996 with their nourishing, potent plant-powered formulas.
Inspired by the country‘s ancient homeopathic remedies, Korres harnesses ingredients harvested in the wilds of Greece like:
- Yogurt
- Wild roses
- Pomegranates
- Saffron
What began as a humble homeopathic pharmacy line in Athens grew into a trailblazing natural beauty empire through innovative product development, global distribution and a steadfast commitment to core values:
Clean formulas – No parabens, sulfates, silicones, mineral oils
Rigorous testing – Products backed by university studies and dermatology clinics
Sustainability – Solar facilities, thoughtfully packaged items with recycled materials
Sensory pleasure – Luxe textures, evocative Mediterranean scents and stunning colors
I admire brands taking skincare seriously while sparking joy. Korres delivers both in spades.
Why The Texture Makes All the Difference
As a lifelong texture enthusiast, I believe skincare should feel as nourishing as it claims. Korres delivers ultra-luxe creams, gels, souffles and balms that drench thirsty complexions with hydration.
Here‘s the low-down on can‘t miss textures:
- Whipped Sleeping Facials – These cloud-like overnight masks weightlessly plump fine lines. I wake up with velvety soft skin!
- Nourishing Balm Cleansers – Unlike harsh foaming washes, these gentle balms melt away grime without stripping my face.
- Cooling Souffle Moisturizers – The refreshing, whipped texture sinks right into skin delivering a burst of hydration.
- Skin-Drenching Body Butters – Ultra-rich, these deeply moisturizing body butters give parched skin long-lasting softness.
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.
