The innovative skincare brand The Skin Diary, founded by leading Irish dermatologist Dr. Clare Kiely, kickstarted 2025 in the best possible way with its night cream, Night Repair Therapy, featuring on today’s This Morning show on ITV. Nadine Baggott highlighted this hero product in her top beauty trends for 2025 segment. The Skin Diary will launch into the Irish market in the coming weeks with this particular product.
Founded by Co. Mayo native and leading Consultant Dermatologist Dr. Clare Kiely, the inclusion of Night Repair Therapy on one of the UK’s most-watched morning shows is a ringing endorsement for this new skincare brand, which was launched in the UK at the end of 2024.
Speaking about the Night Repair Therapy Cream (RRP: €150), Nadine said: “It's been proven to outperform prescription skincare in double-blind clinical trials at the University of Manchester. It essentially boosts collagen and elastin, so it's more impressive than retinol, 20 times more powerful than retinol, but actually more powerful than trans-retinoic acid, which is the prescription skincare that people use.”
Dr. Clare Kiely is a leading Consultant Dermatologist, dermatological surgeon and internationally recognised expert in photodamage, skin cancer, and aesthetic dermatology. A graduate of University College Dublin Medical school, she trained in Dermatology in Ireland before embarking on subspecialty fellowship training in London's world renowned St. Johns Institute of Dermatology. Her research interest in skin ageing began with a Masters Degree in Skin Ageing from the University of Manchester’s where she is now an Honorary Senior Lecturer. This was the beginning of a passion for developing skincare that truly improves skin health and not just the appearance of ageing skin. Dr. Kiely’s research and clinical work has earned her a reputation as one of the foremost voices in skincare science.
Speaking about the feature, Dr. Kiely said:
“This is the first of what I hope will be many highlights for The Skin Diary. Sharing The Skin Diary and in particular Night Repair Therapy with such a large audience highlights the strength of Irish innovation in the global skincare industry. I am incredibly excited to officially launch the brand in Ireland in the coming weeks and bring these scientifically advanced products home.”
Night Repair Therapy is a cutting-edge product designed to target and reverse signs of ageing caused by environmental factors, particularly sun damage. Developed in collaboration with leading dermatologists at the University of Manchester, including Professor Chris Griffiths OBE & Dr. Tamara Griffiths this innovative cream combines advanced science with potent ingredients like bilberry extract, lycopene, and retinyl ester to deliver visible results without irritation. This innovative new product promises to be 20x more effective than retinol and will double the skin’s collagen and elastic fibres, resulting in firmer, more youthful-looking skin.
Speaking about Night Repair Therapy Cream, Dr. Kiely said: “Night Repair Therapy is a product that embodies years of scientific research and dedication. It’s designed to work with the skin’s natural processes to protect, repair, and restore. I’m thrilled to share it with Irish customers as part of our launch.”
The cream’s proven ability to improve skin structure and reduce the visible signs of ageing has already captured attention in the UK market, setting it apart as a standout product in the competitive anti-ageing category. Rigorous scientific testing undertaken at the University of Manchester shows the formulation’s clear ability to enhance collagen and fibrillin (elastic fibre) production, Night Repair Therapy strengthens the skin’s support network, improves elasticity, and helps restore a youthful glow.
Following its feature on one of the UK’s most prominent shows, The Skin Diary is gearing up for its official launch in Ireland. Irish skincare enthusiasts can soon experience the science-backed formulations that have already captured attention in the UK market.
