111Skin - Space-Tested Skincare Innovation
by Lydia Bell
Oh Beauty is thrilled to announce our partnership with 111Skin! Founded by renowned plastic and reconstructive surgeon Dr. Yannis Alexandrides MA FACS, this beauty phenomenon has exploded into the very crowded skincare space with a reputation for powerful, transformative results.
How It All Started
111Skin was founded with just one product and one clear aim: to formulate a serum to help Dr. Yannis’ patients’ skin heal faster and more effectively after surgery. Drawing on intimate knowledge of skin function from his highly successful surgical practice, Dr. Yannis created Y Theorem Repair Serum NAC Y². This potent serum not only healed skin dramatically, but it also plumped, softened, and brightened the complexion, providing dramatic anti-aging benefits. Word soon spread, and patients soon began requesting bottle after bottle.
Shortly after the inaugural serum launch, Dr. Yannis Alexandrides and his wife, creative director Eva Alexandrides, established the full range of 111Skin solutions after finding that the clinical-strength cosmetic products popular in the USA would sometimes cause irritation in his patients. Together, they set out to create a range of equally effective alternatives that were much more tolerable to sensitive skin.
Tested In Space
NAC Y², the groundbreaking ingredient complex behind all 111Skin products, was created by Dr. Yannis with the help of European space scientists. Its first key component is N-acetylcysteine (NAC), which boosts the production of Glutathione, an amino acid and essential building block of our skin. This helps protect your skin against oxidative stress, and plays an important function in tissue repair.
This patented ingredient complex also stimulates the internal production of Vitamins C and E, enhancing your skin barrier function, stimulating collagen production, and reducing UVA damage. This cocktail of antioxidant benefits reveals smoother, brighter skin for a radiant complexion.
Shortly after this powerful cocktail was created, the scientists offered to test Dr. Yannis’ new formula of NAC in space, a uniquely extreme environment that rapidly ages skin. The tests showed that NAC Y² helped stop DNA degradation and halted the aging process on a cellular level. This serum went on to achieve global acclaim!

- Reduces damage caused by oxidative stress
- Increases skin softness
