About the Brand
Brand logo
Irene Forte founded her namesake brand with Dr. Francesca Ferri, a scientist with over 35 years of expertise, to bridge the gap between nature and clinical skincare. First created for Rocco Forte Hotel spas, the line pairs eco-friendly, vegan formulations that distil the sun-soaked richness of Sicilian botanical extracts like Olives, Almonds, and Prickly Pear. Each product reflects Irene’s vision of sustainable luxury rooted in science.

Irene Forte Skincare combines Mediterranean wellness with proven clinical efficacy. Each formula is vegan, eco-friendly, and enriched with natural anti-ageing actives that smooth and firm while deeply nourishing the skin. Clinically tested and spa-approved, the products deliver hydration, calm, and protection with luxurious scents and textures that bring the Rocco Forte spa experience home.

At the core is Myoxinol, a patented hibiscus seed peptide known as a plant-based Botox for its wrinkle-smoothing effect. Clinical trials show visible results in hydration and elasticity within days.

Hydrating

Hydration is a fundamental part of healthy skincare, focusing on maintaining and restoring the skin’s water content. Well-hydrated skin appears plump, smooth and radiant, while dehydration can lead to dullness, tightness, fine lines and increased sensitivity.
Hydrating the skin can work through a fascinating mix of ingredients with different roles. Humectants like hyaluronic acid and glycerin act like water magnets, pulling water into the skin to instantly plump and smooth, while Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMFs)—such as urea, amino acids and sodium PCA—mimic the skin’s own hydration system, helping it hold onto water and stay balanced from within.
Adding humectants like hyaluronic acid to your routine will restore your skin's healthy glow, minimize fine lines, and provide a plumping effect.

Anti-Wrinkle

Anti-wrinkle skincare is focused on both preventing and visibly reducing the formation of lines by targeting the structural and dynamic causes of wrinkles within the skin. Fine lines and deeper wrinkles develop as collagen and elastin decline, cell turnover slows and repeated facial movements create creases that become etched over time. Advanced formulations address these mechanisms through a combination of elastin-stimulating actives, smoothing peptides that help relax the appearance of expression lines, and deeply hydrating ingredients that plump the skin from within. By reinforcing the skin’s architecture while softening surface contractions and improving elasticity, anti-wrinkle skincare delivers a visibly smoother complexion.

Plumping

Plumping involves using active ingredients to boost the production of key structural components like collagen, the dermal-epidermal junction and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), giving your skin more volume and density. Collagen provides structural support and firmness, while the dermal-epidermal junction, a thin connective layer, ensures smooth, wrinkle-free skin by facilitating cell communication. GAGs, like hyaluronic acid, keep your skin hydrated and plump from within. By stimulating these components, active ingredients help restore your skin's plumpness and radiance.

Firming & Lifting

Firming & Lifting skincare is designed to restore strength, structure, and definition to the skin, creating a visibly tighter, more sculpted appearance. As the skin loses collagen and elasticity over time, it can begin to soften and sag, losing its natural contours. Advanced formulations work to rebuild this support from within—boosting firmness while helping to visibly lift and redefine the skin. The result is a smoother, more toned complexion with enhanced bounce and resilience, where facial contours appear sharper and elevated.

Antioxidant

Antioxidant skincare is dedicated to protecting the skin against oxidative stress—one of the primary drivers of premature ageing and cellular damage—while preserving overall skin integrity and vitality. These formulations rely on potent molecules such as vitamin C, vitamin E, and polyphenols, which neutralize free radicals generated by UV exposure and environmental aggressors before they can compromise cellular structures like lipids, proteins, and DNA. Beyond defence, many antioxidants also support repair processes and enhance collagen stability, contributing to improved firmness, brightness and resilience. The result is skin that is not only shielded from ongoing damage but maintained in a healthier, more luminous state over time.

Pore Decongesting

Pore decongesting focuses on both clearing and minimising the appearance of enlarged pores. Enlarged pores often result from excess oil production and the build-up of impurities within the pore, which can stretch them over time, while ageing further contributes as reduced elasticity makes them more visible. Effective formulations work first to clear the pores—dissolving and removing trapped sebum, debris, and congestion—before regulating oil production and supporting collagen and elastin to improve skin firmness. By addressing both internal build-up and structural integrity, pores can return to a clearer, more refined, and less noticeable state.

Anti-Inflammatory

Anti-Inflammatory skincare soothes, heal, and balance your skin, the targeted actives are designed to reduce inflammation. Inflammation is your body's natural response to injury or irritation, but continuous inflammation can lead to troublesome skin conditions like acne, rosacea, or eczema. Our anti-inflammatory skincare solutions work to soothe and calm your skin, reducing redness, swelling, and discomfort to provide much-needed relief. By strengthening your skin's barrier, these products help protect against further irritation and damage. Additionally, the anti-inflammatory actives support your skin's natural healing processes, leading to a more balanced and resilient complexion.

Regenerating

Regenerating skincare actively stimulates the formation of new, healthier skin, working in alignment with the skin’s innate renewal processes. Central to this are growth factors—effectively encouraging the development of new skin tissue. Peptides complement this by acting as targeted messengers guiding the skin to rebuild with greater strength and structural integrity. Stem cell–derived actives further support this environment by delivering protective and regenerative signals that optimize cellular function and renewal. While these mechanisms are synonymous with advanced anti-ageing—improving firmness, elasticity and overall skin quality—they are equally valuable in addressing scarring, as they promote tissue repair, accelerate regeneration and help restore a smoother, more even skin surface.

Rose Water

Rose Water serves as a gentle and natural astringent (tightening), effectively improving the appearance of pores and toning the skin. This refreshing active also provides antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, which help to protect the skin from environmental aggressors and provide soothing and hydrating benefits.

Tetrapeptides

Tetrapeptides are short chains of four amino acids that play vital roles in skin care due to their ability to act as messengers within skin cells. These peptides serve as building blocks for essential proteins like collagen and elastin, which are crucial for maintaining skin elasticity and firmness. Additionally, tetrapeptides support the production of lumican, a key protein that helps anchor collagen fibres within the skin's structure.

By stimulating collagen and elastin synthesis, tetrapeptides enhance skin density and firmness. They promote the formation of a robust collagen network, which contributes to a plumping effect that improves the skin's overall appearance. This 3D effect helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, resulting in smoother and more youthful-looking skin.

Olea Europea Oil

Olea Europea Oil also known as Olive oil is rich in fatty acids and antioxidants, offering nourishing and protective benefits for the skin. Abundant in Vitamin E, it shields the skin from cell-damageing free radicals, effectively preventing premature skin ageing. Its high content of Fatty Acids improves barrier function and hydration levels, while its anti-inflammatory properties help reduce skin sensitivity for a healthy and balanced complexion.

Myoxinol™

Myoxinol™ is a proven and natural active extracted from Hibiscus seeds that mimics Botulinum toxin neurotransmitter to combat wrinkles and expression lines. It acts as a potent antioxidant, protecting cells against free radical damage and preserving collagen fibres. Myoxinol™ activates natural cellular defences, delaying cell ageing both mechanically and biologically, offering long-term anti-ageing benefits.

Green Pea Polypeptides

Green Pea Polypeptides are clinically proven botanical peptides that enhance skin firmness and combat enzyme degrading collagen and elastin, delaying wrinkles and sagging. Even in small concentrations, they have been shown to boost Collagen and Elastin synthesis, improve hydration, and enhance skin elasticity, visibly reducing signs of ageing.

Pro Ceramide

Phytosphingosine, also known as Pro Ceramide, is a natural component found in the skin that functions as a precursor to ceramides. Ceramides are essential lipids that play a crucial role in maintaining the skin's protective barrier. As we age, the production of ceramides and other Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMFs) decreases, leading to dryness and increased sensitivity. Phytosphingosine works by stimulating the skin to produce more ceramides and NMFs, thereby enhancing the skin's barrier function. This helps to retain moisture, improve hydration levels, and reduce dryness and sensitivity, resulting in healthier and more resilient skin.

Ceramides Complex

Ceramides are lipids naturally found in our skin barrier. They play an essential role in preventing Trans epidermal Water Loss (TEWL) which is the loss of moisture through the skin, by restoring and maintaining healthy the skin's barrier function. Ceramides also enhance the skin's natural protection against environmental aggressors and irritants, helping to keep skin balanced and calm.

High, Low & Ultra Low Hyaluronic Acid Blend

A combination of 3 different molecular weights of Hyaluronic Acids ensures the skin is deeply hydrated at all levels, for a lasting result.

High Molecular Weight Hyaluronic Acid has a larger molecular size (>1000kDA), which tends to sit at the top layer of the skin, providing surface hydration and improving water retention. It acts as a potent humectant, drawing hydration from the environment into the skin, which helps to plump and smooth the skin's surface texture. Its larger size limits its ability to penetrate deeply into the skin compared to lower molecular weight Hyalurons, making it ideal for providing surface, enhancing hydration provided from other forms of Hyalurons and maintaining skin suppleness.

Low Molecular Weight Hyaluronic Acid or Sodium Hyaluronate, is a salt form of naturally occurring hyaluronic acid. Sodium Hyaluronate has a low molecular size (<70 kDa), which allows it to penetrate the skin deeper and more effectively. Sodium Hyaluronate has superior hydrating and skin-plumping benefits. Increased skin hydration also contributes to efficient natural skin exfoliation, supporting the skin's natural renewal cycle.

Ultra-Low Molecular Weight? or Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid? (<10 kDa), penetrates the skin the fastest and the deepest compared to other forms. This provides ultra hydrating and plumping results. Additionally it can enhance collagen and elastin synthesis by stimulating fibroblast activity, resulting in firmer, denser and smoother looking skin.
