Select influencers, media and representatives of Dr. Naomi Skin came together in celebration of turning the big 0-1 in Sydney last week.

Founded by Dr. Naomi herself, the brand has built a mass following in its short one year since entering the market.

The event was held at none other than Reign at the QVB – a venue designed to cater to Sydney’s most lavish hosts. Reign is positioned in the heart of the CBD, and provides a series of adjoining light-filled rooms for guests to mingle in. The space’s signature, soft pink decor made for a fitting backdrop to Dr. Naomi Skin’s collection, which was displayed throughout.

The pastel theme continued through to the displays of pink, gemstone-lined orchids and roses. Guests posed against a bejeweled Dr. Naomi media wall, before hearing from the brand’s CEO Olivier Duvillard on the science behind the formulations. The Manse beauty therapist and friend of the brand Alan Nowak served as Dr. Naomi’s body double for the day.

Sitting down for lunch, three courses of alternating dishes were served. PB’s Hannah Gay enjoyed the goat cheese tortellini with watercress pesto, black olives and cherry tomatoes to start, followed by smoked salmon with crème fraiche, pikelets and salmon roe. Australian performer Jack Vidgen dressed in drag and sang ‘Happy Birthday’ to guests over dessert.

Five of Dr. Naomi Skin’s best-selling products were gifted to each guest to take home.
