One of Britain’s fastest-growing beauty brands has a number of products to leave skin feeling smooth and glowy.
Skincare is a top priority for many and almost everyone prioritising their skin health as part of a dedicated beauty regime. Finding the correct products that won’t lead to irritation and problems can be difficult and for many it can be a frustrating time.
Now however, a beauty revolution has been born in the heart of Yorkshire – perhaps not where everyone would expect. 47 Skin, which has been named one of the UK’s fastest-growing privately held businesses by The Sunday Times 100 List, for the second year in a row, now has a number of products which include their unique ingredient – Silver Chitoderm.
In 2024 the brand ranked 52nd on the list, and landed at 55th in 2025 – making it a full-circle moment for them as in 2003, founder Nic’s father made the very same list.

Silver Chitoderm is an ingredient unique to 47 Skin and together the silver and the chitoderm bond create an invisible barrier, killing 99.9% of the bacteria that causes breakouts, the brand explains.
The brand’s founder Nic explains that he had been suffering from blemishes for over ten years, before a parcel arrived out of the blue from his Grandma.

The brand has a number of products which include their unique ingredient – Silver Chitoderm.
He explains: “I’d tried what felt like every single product and treatment under the sun and spent thousands of pounds. Nothing worked. I even resorted to medication which led to a short period of depression. But in January 2017, Grandma sent me a pot of cream through the post with a handwritten note urging me to try it. I was sceptical, but to my complete surprise it cleared my spots and blemishes in just four days.”“I was so amazed with the results that I tracked down and partnered with the scientist behind the formulation. Now our mission is to spread the word through our range of incredible products and skin-positive community. At 47 Skin, we understand exactly how spots, blemishes and skin concerns can make you feel from the inside out.”
Shoppers can try a range of their products such as the Anti-Blemish & Scar Repair Everyday Cleanser for £29, which is used to help promote clearer skin, and leaves skin feeling silky soft and hydrated.
Another option is the Anti-Blemish & Scar Repair Silver Mask for £24 which is designed to soothe, brighten and reduce redness and inflammation. There’s also a best seller, the Anti-Blemish & Scar Repair Serum for £29, which naturally soothes and protects skin and leaves it feeling soft and hydrated and another product is their Anti-Blemish & Scar Repair Daily Moisturiser for £34 which is a lightweight, oil-free daily moisturiser.
However, if this brand isn’t for everyone, they could try others such as The Ordinary Essentials Bundle for £28.20 from Boots. This comes with a natural moisturising factors and hyaluronic acid daily moisturiser, a hyaluronic acid 2% and B5 hydrating serum, a squalane cleanser for all skin types and niacinamide 10% + zinc 1% oil control serum. Another option could be the Medik8 Blemish Sos 15ml from LookFantastic for £25 which is a fast-acting gel that dries invisibly and leaves no residue.
Shoppers have rated 47 Skin quite highly however as one person, Anna, said in June 2025: “I love 47 skin and would recommend anyone with blemish prone skin to use it. I wish when my breakouts were bad as a teenager that 47 skin existed honestly.”
Another named Gioia said: “It’s the clearest my skin has looked in over 10 years.”
Some others did share mixed reviews on Trustpilot however with one person saying: “It’s made no difference at all to my skin after a month of using it.”
“I really tried everything possible.. I tried a few different brands which didn’t make much difference, then my friend recommended 47Skin and I absolutely love it! The quality is so good and I notice such a difference in my skin! I used to be so self conscious about going make-up free in summer/at the beach and now I feel so much more confident – definitely recommend!” said Zoe.
47 Skin products are available on their website.
