The Dr Markey Edit

Long story, short

  • Dr Andrew Markey’s ABCSPF programme is built on three master molecules: Vitamin A (Retinol), Vitamin B (Niacinamide), and Vitamin C — each targeting a different layer of skin health, from cell turnover to collagen stimulation and pigmentation control.
  • Vitamin C is non-negotiable for Dr Markey: this antioxidant powerhouse stops UV-induced inflammaging, stimulates new collagen, prevents pigmentation, and brightens and evens skin tone — ensure it’s in your routine in a stable form.
  • Dr Markey’s Youthbomb range features encapsulated and Granactive Retinoids for double-duty anti-ageing with minimal irritation — ideal for users ready to advance beyond entry-level Retinol.
  • SPF should be daily and non-negotiable: "Don’t even ask the question. Don’t check the weather forecast. Just put sunscreen on every day, without thinking — just like you brush your teeth." — Dr Andrew Markey.

The skincare products that world-renowned dermatologist and Beauty Pie collaborator Dr Andrew Markey thinks you should you have on your shelf.

Not only has Dr Markey created some of his own sellout skincare icons for Beauty Pie (that would be you, Youthbomb 360 Radiance Concentrate), he’s also a big fan of some existing products in the lineup - especially those that form part of his ABCSPF programme, incorporating his three master molecules: vitamin A (Retinol), B (Niacinamide) and C.

See below for his latest edit of products that tick his boxes of proven results combined with winning formulations. “I’m very excited to be sharing my passion for education in healthy skin habits with the BEAUTY PIE team,” he says. “Using a mixture of dermatological know-how, skin science and a sprinkling of fun, I hope to help all on their journey towards healthy skin goals.”

Youthbomb™ 360° Radiance Concentrate

Dr Markey’s first collaboration with Beauty Pie, which sold out at launch. It’s an extraordinary skincare radiance concentrate, formulated to unlock insanely dewy, glowing skin. Made with an exclusive Biolog-Elastic™ Complex — a powerful proprietary blend of 15 active ingredients, including Di-, Tri- and Hexapeptides, Proteins, Exopolysaccharides, super hydrators and soothers to help visibly firm, resurface, brighten, tighten, hydrate and glow, all in one bottle.

Radiance is really the ultimate hallmark of healthy skin. Healthy skin is characterised by an even reflection of light.

Dr Andrew Markey, Consultant Dermatologist

“Radiance is really the ultimate hallmark of healthy skin. Healthy skin is characterised by an even reflection of light. What dermatologists know is that very often, the ‘wow’ their patients get post-treatments is not down to improved lines, wrinkles or firmness, but very often relates to the newly-revealed radiance and glow. So the aim with the 360 Radiance Concentrate is to replicate the ‘wow effect’ of a dermatologist’s office.” — Dr Andrew Markey.

Youthbomb™ Biologic Collagen Peptide™ Cream

It’s Dr Markey’s ‘First-Class Upgrade’ of moisturising creams. Loaded with 18+% cutting-edge active ingredients, all chosen because they make skin look (and act) healthier, plumper, brighter, dewier, younger. With a rich base, so a little goes a very long way. From one of the leading labs in Japan.

“Youthbomb Biologic Collagen Peptide+ Cream is a truly super-luxe moisturiser. It’s packed with an exclusive complex of 18 actives to provide instant and long-lasting intense moisture and skin barrier support.” — Dr Andrew Markey.

Youthbomb™ Double-Retinol™ Action Skin Overhaul™ Serum

A super-charged night serum for Retinol users who are ready, as Dr Markey says, “to kick things up a gear”. With two specially-selected Retinoids for double-duty firming: Microencapsulated Retinol (3%) to help reduce the visibility of wrinkles and enhance firmness, and Granactive Retinoid (2%), a low-irritation, bioavailable, non-prescription Vitamin A, for a double dose of resurfacing and anti-ageing.

“Retinol is the master of all the skincare molecules, and this serum is next-level. It works on every layer of the skin, and every cell type — from the superficial cells in the stratum corneum (that make skin smoother and improve light reflection), and the keratinocyte cells (for a thicker, healthier epidermis), to the melanocytes (for increasing cell turnover and directly inhibiting pigmentation). It also works on the master cells of the dermis, the fibroblasts, helping stimulate collagen and elastin.” — Dr Andrew Markey

Super Retinol Ceramide-Boost Anti-Aging Face Serum

Perfectly balanced to both revive and replenish, this ultra-gentle encapsulated Retinol serum is infused with Lactic and Hyaluronic Acids, and a concentrated, barrier-repairing Ceramide blend to help protect, brighten, hydrate, smooth fine lines and soothe skin.

“What I like about BEAUTY PIE’s Super Retinol range is that the formulations are gentle, and the Retinol is encapsulated and in a more stable form than most of the ones I see. Too many people suffer irritation and inflammation from using aggressive actives on their skin. The Super Retinol range allows you to start gently and build up.” — Dr Andrew Markey

Super Retinol Anti-Wrinkle Eye Cream

Swiss-formulated, with line-smoothing slow-release Retinol microcapsules, moisture-magnetising Hyaluronic Acid to soften, anti-ageing Allosteris to slowly reduce the appearance of wrinkles, and Bioflavonoids to brighten. It’s like a jolt of youth in a bottle.

“A good Retinol eye cream must be sufficiently light for the very thin skin around the eyes. This formulation is very delicate, combining Retinol with great moisturisers. It’s not occlusive, heavy or clogging. It’s also really great to have a gentler eye cream when perhaps you’re graduating to a Retinol face cream that is more powerful.” — Dr Andrew Markey

“Vitamin C is one of what I call my ‘Master Molecules’ — because it can make such a difference to the health of the skin. It is an antioxidant. It can stop inflammaging caused by UV light and environmental pollutants. This brightening powerhouse stimulates new collagen and helps protect skin from developing pigmentation. It can also improve the brightness of the complexion and evenness of skin tone. I really recommend that everyone ensures there is Vitamin C in a stable form somewhere in their skincare regime.” — Dr Andrew Markey
