LONDON — Ready-to-wear meets skincare.

Leah Uka, a former combat medical technician within the British Army, left her post 13 years ago and worked in business development, until shifting gears to grow to be a skincare specialist at Skin Clinic. That last role is the one which inspired her current enterprise, which mixes sleepwear and skincare.

Uka is combining nightwear staples with advanced skincare after growing bored with the 10-step skincare routines she used to advise customers to adopt.

Her newly launched brand, Narvvi, goals so as to add advanced skincare reminiscent of hyaluronic acid, marine collagen peptides and argan oil into the fabrics.

Her debut collection offers eight pieces of silky garments, from slipdresses, sleep masks to silk trousers and shorts available in black, rose pink and white.

Each garment is supposed to deliver skincare advantages for anywhere as much as 12 to 24 months.

“As a skin specialist in addition to a founder, it was essential to me that Narvvi was built on the premise of prevention over cure,” said Uka, adding that her goal is to “simplify skin health, for a complete host of ongoing and cumulative advantages and make a visual difference to the looks of your skin in addition to your wardrobe.”

All the collection is made in London and Uka uses micelle technology that takes oil-based products and making them bio-absorbable.

During wear, the formula is slowly released into the skin, and is supposed to optimize skin hydration.

Clothing that doubles as skincare has been shifting onto the market within the last yr with brands reminiscent of PH5, which launched in 2014, but only garnered attraction last yr for its HydraKnit, where knitwear is fused with hyaluronic acid molecules.
