MACRENE actives

From one of the most sought-after dermatologists in New York, clean skin-care line MACRENE actives delivers Dr. Macrene Alexiades’s superpowered approach to treating skin—out of the office and into your skin-care cabinet. With products like a do-it-all face cream (to help boost firmness, smooth wrinkles, even skin tone, etc.) packed with 50 active ingredients, a tinted moisturizer that leaves skin absolutely radiant, and a lip-plumping treatment for pillowy, soft lips, every product works overtime for your skin. Many of the active ingredients are sourced from Alexiades’s organic farm in the Hudson Valley, and the brand’s products are housed in recycled-glass jars and printed with biodegradable inks. “You can do it all,” says Alexiades. “I’m never thinking about price point; I’m thinking of excellence.”
