Some of the best new skincare products have come from the research and knowledge of doctors who have spent
Doctor’s Orders LIMITED EDITION
When nature needs a little help, there is always a doctor on call. And, when it doesn’t, there are always flowers to flatter or heal, says Jo Foley
years working on skin. Take US-based DR ALKAITIS, whose products are 100% organic with paraben-free ingredients yet simple and effective. He began his career in skincare after noticing the large amount of seemingly ineffective ingredients in his wife’s skincare and promised to “make simple yet effective products for which one’s skin will be eternally grateful.” It took five years. Designed for skin in need of transformation, deep cleansing, hydrating,
restoration and balancing, you will find his products and facials at Coworth Park in Berkshire. Try the Skin Food Facial.
FORMULA WIN
While DR FRANCES PRENNA JONES is known as one of London’s best skincare specialists, she is also renowned for her simple skincare products. The first, Formula 2006, is a one-stop product that cleanses, treats and moisturises. It is suitable for all skin types and ages, while Formula 2006+ is a more intense version for sun damaged or problem skin. All you need to do is sweep a few drops on a moist cotton pad, over the face and neck.
It may tingle for the first few days but, after that, your skin will settle. Use evenings only for the first few days, then morning and evening and rinse with warm water. It can also be used as part of your normal regime (products from £38 (50ml F2006);

There are cleansers, day creams and night creams alongside eye cream, body lotion and a sun lotion, as well as their hero product – Radiance Lip Shimmer (prices from £5.99; stockists from major chemists or

48 WORLD OF CRUISING I Summer 2011
Available at all JO MALONE outlets – but only until the end of the summer – are her new Dry Body Oils. Oil is a wonderful skin nourisher but can stain light summer clothes.
