iiaa celebrates 25th anniversary

Leading provider of products, services and education to the professional beauty sector, The International Institute for Anti-Ageing (iiaa Ltd), is celebrating its 25th anniversary.

The UK and Ireland distributor for Environ® Skin Care and jane iredale® mineral cosmetics, and wholly-owned brand Advanced Nutrition Programme™, is headquartered in London, where it houses its skin health research centre, research and development, international distribution, and warehouse facilities. It also has training centres located in London, Dublin, Weston-Super-Mare and Leeds.

The iiaa was founded by David Alpert and Tracy Tamaris, and credits it success to the business's core values of integrity, efficacy and innovation as key to its success over the last quarter of a century.

Commenting on their anniversary, David Alpert says:

“We started over 25 years ago with little more than a vision to transform the ability of skincare professionals to deliver truly healthy skin outcomes for the long term. We saw massive potential in the professional skincare micro business model to stand side by side with salon owners and deliver sustainable business success. We chose brands with an evidence based, scientific approach. We never endorsed quick fixes instead choosing products and treatments that would work with the physiology of the skin to achieve maximum long term benefits."

Tracy Tamaris adds: 

“We put education at the core of our business and proudly run the largest independent training infrastructure in the UK plus will be launching new digital training solutions to enable greater flexibility and reach to busy salon owners.”
