NATURAL SCIENCE
Our proprietary range achieves outstanding results with natural, vegan ingredients in formulations shaped by 35 years of skincare research and development. With her Scientific Director Dr. Francesca Ferri - a pioneer in the medical use of plant extracts to treat skin conditions - Irene has introduced novel ingredients in products which have shown profound results in independent clinical and user trials. Irene Forte Skincare products are suitable for all skin types and have even been clinically approved for sensitive skin.
OUR FOUNDER
Irene Forte
With her ‘Natura e Scienza’ vision, Irene Forte is the founder, leader and driving force behind Irene Forte Skincare.
As the Wellness Consultant of Rocco Forte Hotels and an Advisory Board Member of the Global Wellness Summit, Irene has always understood the importance of a holistic approach to beauty. This is reflected in her constant emphasis on nourishing, organic ingredients. However, natural ingredients alone don’t guarantee results, so Irene has married nature with science to make it possible for the latest scientific understanding to drive product performance.


STRENGTH IN GENTLENESS
Effectiveness is not enough without gentleness. So Irene Forte strictly limits “essential oils” because they can irritate the skin, and all her fragrances are screened for allergens. Then, beyond normal skin testing, products are also clinically tested on volunteers with sensitive skin so that they can even be formally certified as “Suitable for sensitive skin”.
"Billed as 'the Mediterranean diet for skin', the 32-product Irene Forte collection features own-grown olive oil, nuts, herbs and fruit brought together with oligomineral water from Sicily’s Madonie Regional Natural Park. The results sound – and indeed smell – good enough to eat."
"Using ingredients grown on a Sicilian farm in formulations created by a leading organic scientist, the brand offers the perfect blend of pure nature and high science, which I love."
"Because Irene still wanted her products to smell luscious, she uses fragrances but ‘purifies them in the lab to remove allergens such as linalool and citronellol’."
"The line is made entirely in Italy with many edible ingredients, making it much like a Mediterranean diet for the skin."
