No skincare routine is complete without Vitamin D.⁠
⁠
Whilst Vitamin D is widely known for promoting good bone health, its role in skin protection is equally essential. Vitamin D helps reinforce the skin's barrier function, increases skin resistance against environmental aggressors and supports the skin's natural recovery process. However, as daylight decreases during the winter, Vitamin D levels drop precisely when skin needs this support most.⁠
⁠
"As an Italian, I believe no kitchen is complete without basil or oregano. As a scientist, I believe no skincare routine is complete without Vitamin D." - Dr. Marko Lens

"My lifelong passion for botanicals and formulating began at a young age and under the guidance of my grandmother, who would create her own bespoke skincare remedies with oils and plant extracts. ⁠
⁠
I was absolutely fascinated with the world of plants. This interest deepened when I was given a two-volume encyclopaedia of herbs which I committed to memory. This treasured possession inspired a childhood of alchemical experiment and sparked lifelong passion for nature’s botanicals." - Dr. Marko Lens

Your survival guide for mountain skincare.⁠
⁠
High altitude presents unique challenges: UV rays intensify with increasing elevation, cold air strips the skin of moisture and wind accelerates transepidermal water loss. The skin's barrier function needs support.⁠
⁠
Before hitting the slopes: Power D and Emulsion D strengthen the skin's natural defences.⁠
⁠
On the mountain: Daily Defence SPF50 provides broad-spectrum protection. ⁠
⁠
Apres-ski: Melatonin B12 Overnight Mask helps support the skin's natural repair processes overnight.

Zelens pioneered the use of topical Provitamin D3 in skincare in 2014. While most of us associate Vitamin D with sun exposure, Dr Marko Lens recognised its transformative potential when applied directly to skin years before the rest of the industry followed suit.

Before barrier repair became a skincare trend, Dr. Marko Lens was innovating. Power D has been strengthening and protecting the skin's natural defences since 2014 - long before 'barrier' became a buzzword.⁠
⁠
When the skin's barrier health is compromised, it's visible in the form of redness, sensitivity, reactivity - all signs that the protective barrier needs support. Power D was formulated specifically to address these concerns through extensively researched Provitamin D. ⁠
⁠
Power D: because barrier repair isn't a trend - it's a fundamental building block for skin health. And Power D has been delivering for over a decade.

Our Story

Each Zelens product has been formulated by Dr Lens based on his extensive research and in-depth knowledge of the biological functions of the skin. A comprehensive understanding of skin ageing at a molecular level was fundamental to the development of Zelens cosmeceuticals. “We have moved far beyond cosmetics focused on the needs of the skin that are only visible on the outside towards a new generation of skin care based on the breakthrough research and scientific understanding of complex molecular mechanisms occurring inside the cells themselves” Dr Marko Lens The laboratory of Dr Lens uses potent plant-derived ingredients in addition to novel biotechnological active ingredients in the formulation of Zelens skin care products. The selection of active ingredients is a crucial process in the development of Zelens formulations and it is based on their influence on different biological functions of the skin and the skin ageing process. Many plant extracts in Zelens formulas are chosen from the traditional Japanese herbal Kampo medicine. All Zelens products contain a unique complex of multiple ingredients that work in synergy to protect, regenerate and repair the skin. “In the course of my research, I discovered that only by combining multiple active ingredients into one formula, is it possible to target different key molecules in the cells and trigger various cellular processes that may lead to the enhancement of the health and beauty of the skin” Dr Marko Lens Formulated from a multitude of specially selected ingredients using advanced skincare technology, Zelens skin care products have been subjected to extensive independent clinical testing at international research institutes to prove both safety and efficacy. No animal testing has been conducted. Research-based Results-driven Eco-Responsible
