The Skin Diary is a dermatologist-founded British skincare brand focused on the science of skin ageing and long-term skin health. Its formulas are developed around protecting healthy skin, repairing visible damage and supporting the skin barrier, with products independently evaluated through cellular, clinical and consumer testing.
The Skin Diary’s Night Repair Therapy was created by Professor Chris Griffiths OBE, a consultant dermatologist and internationally recognised expert in skin ageing. His research has included extensive work into how retinoids affect the cellular structure of ageing skin, which helped shape the brand's approach to effective but well-tolerated skincare.
Night Repair Therapy is designed to target visible signs of ageing including fine lines, wrinkles, loss of firmness and uneven texture. Its formula combines a retinyl ester with cell-communicating peptides, antioxidants, niacinamide and multi-molecular hyaluronic acid to support skin renewal, hydration and barrier health.
Night Repair Therapy was specifically formulated to provide retinoid benefits while minimising the irritation often associated with stronger retinoids. In the brand's consumer testing, 98% of participants described the formula as gentle and 93% reported no irritation. Individual sensitivities can vary, so always check the ingredients before introducing a new active product.
The brand takes a streamlined two-step approach to skin ageing. In the morning, Age Defence combines moisturisation with SPF 50 PA++++, antioxidants and DNA repair enzymes to protect against UV and environmental damage. At night, Night Repair Therapy focuses on skin renewal, collagen support and barrier restoration.
