Science-Led Skincare Ranges

Marks & Spencer Launched Its First Own-Brand Skincare in Seven Years

Marks & Spencer newly unveiled an own-brand, science-led skincare range, which is its first own-brand skincare range in seven years. This skincare range spent more than three years in development and Fresh Elements was mindfully formulated to help people experience more confidence without having to invest more time into complicated personal care routines.

Fresh Elements boasts three sub-ranges (Glow, Clarify and Hydrate,) each of which features different active ingredients that respond to frequently asked-for solutions from consumers. While Vitamin C powers the Glow range, Clarify's hero ingredient is AHA mandelic acid, and Hydrate features everything from micellar water to overnight masks and daily serums infused with hyaluronic acid.

And thanks to the new beauty takeback program at Marks & Spencer, recycling used beauty product packaging is easier than ever.
