Why NEX Skincare? Intelligent Skincare for smart-ageing
Aug 29, 2024
In today’s fast-paced world, skincare needs to be more than what sits on the surface. It needs to be smart and precise and promote long-term skin health, resilience and vitality. NEX Skincare redefines the concept of smart-ageing with our clinically proven proprietary delivery system. Built on the foundation of scientific innovation, efficacy, inclusivity and sustainability, NEX Skincare introduces the most effective [skin] solution, with clinically proven results.
The Science
At the core of NEX Skincare’s effectiveness, and where we get our name, is our proprietary Nano Encapsulation Matrix delivery system. This allows for the precise delivery of a unique mix of eight hero ingredients with unique mechanisms of action at a variety of molecular weights and particle sizes. Ensuring maximum absorption and effectiveness to deliver visible results, addressing concerns such as firmness, wrinkle reduction, dark spots, blemishes and hydration at every level of your skin.
Clinically proven to boost collagen production, enhance skin elasticity, and improve overall skin tone.
What is a Matrix Delivery System?
Our delivery system accesses unique mechanisms of intracellular pathways that focus on the intrinsic properties of each ingredient molecules to ensure they effectively reach living cells within the skin. In simpler terms - it ensures that each of the ingredients can do their job in your skin without getting caught up in the skin layers where they can’t be properly utilised. This is specifically important for skins with a higher melanin content as they have a denser structure and the melanin can act as a natural defence mechanism (much as it does when protecting skin against the effects of sun).

Meet the scientist behind our groundbreaking delivery system
Harnessing 15 years of scientific research and as the first MSc Cosmetic Skin Scientist and Research and Development Product Specialist in anti-ageing for all skin tones, Faiza Hussain, has worked with some of the most advanced laboratories globally to develop high-tech, clinically backed formulas and biotech-driven innovations. Playing a key role in launching hundreds of products, including many household brands taken to market by industry leaders.
Her journey, however, started from as young as the age of eight, where she was fascinated with skin health, winning BBC Blue Peter competitions for writing articles on dry skin and eczema and how food impacts our skin. From battling teenage acne to addressing the nuances associated with melanin-inclusive skin, science drives her commitment to developing solutions that provide clinically proven results.
Inclusive skincare designed for all skins, ages, genders and concerns
We have designed NEX Skincare inclusively. Meaning we ensure that we create products at the highest standard and judge their efficacy through rigorous in-vitro testing with the world’s largest test labs. Skins with a higher melanin density are harder to penetrate with ingredients, NEX Skincare is engineered for this purpose. Ensuring our clinical trials extended to all skin tones and considered all hallmarks of skin life and ageing, including women who are pregnant or dealing with perimenopausal and menopausal skin, by providing results for your skin’s long-term health.
For melanin inclusive skin
Skin with richer melanin content faces additional challenges, the skin's surface can be thicker and denser. Making it more resilient but also more resistant to ingredient penetration and absorption.
Our solution
The NEX™ delivery system bypasses irritation to speed cell turnover and repair damaged skin cells whilst only targeting irregular melanin clusters and damaged skin cells.
For skin health
The deeper skin layers contain mitochondria energy cells which help the cells repair themselves better plus fibroblasts that's stimulate collagen and elastin. The efficacy of traditional formulations is limited to the top layers of the skin, due to the molecular weight and size of ingredients being too large to penetrate and absorb into the deeper skin layers.
Our solution
Our Nano Encapsulation matriX delivery system precisely delivers of an industry-defining mix of eight hero ingredients at different molecular weights and at a nano particle scale to reach the deeper skin layers essential to address all skin concerns and all skin tones.
For skin ageing
ALL skins as it ages suffers from common concerns such such as hyperpigmentation, loss of firmness, dullness and pigmentation. When skin is inflamed it triggers a defence response which hinders the penetration and absorption of skincare ingredients.
Our solution
Clinically researched ingredients with unique mechanism of action i.e. antioxidants, polyphenols, tripeptides, flavanoids and amino acids strategically engineered within a matrix at nanoparticle scale.
