iSMART Developments Ltd Announces Strategic Partnership with L’Oréal Groupe
UK-based skincare, aesthetic and medical device innovator iSMART Developments has announced a strategic partnership with L’Oréal Groupe, marking a significant milestone in the company’s long-term growth and leadership within the professional grade light therapy industry.
The partnership brings together iSMART’s advanced LED engineering, innovation and regulatory expertise with L’Oréal Groupe’s global scale, scientific infrastructure and commitment to cutting-edge skincare. Developed in partnership with L’Oréal, iSMART have created a first-of-its-kind LED Face Mask and LED Eye Mask: ultra-thin, flexible silicone delivering professional-grade light therapy directly to full face and the delicate under-eye area. The lightweight, portable and non-invasive design allows for seamless addition into daily skincare routines, precisely delivering two selected wavelengths of light:
Red light (630 nm): Stimulates collagen and elastin to visibly firm and smooth skin.
Near-infrared light (830 nm): Penetrates deeper to reduce puffiness and boost circulation.
This strategic alignment reinforces iSMART’s position as a trusted development and manufacturing partner to some of the world’s most influential beauty and dermatology brands and underlines the growing role of clinically engineered LED technology within the future of skin health and longevity focused solutions.
Sue D’Arcy, CEO and Founder of iSMART Developments, said: “This partnership with L’Oréal Groupe represents a powerful validation of iSMART’s technology, team and long-term vision. We have spent over two decades building deep expertise in LED phototherapy, regulatory excellence and scalable innovation. Working alongside a global leader such as L’Oréal Groupe allows us to accelerate the impact of clinically engineered light-based solutions on a truly international stage. We see this as a significant step forward not only for iSMART, but for the wider evolution of science led, professional grade skin technologies.”
The partnership will focus on the development and manufacture of next generation LED phototherapy devices, initially within the full facial category / across multiple LED enabled skincare applications / within a defined product platform.
The agreement covers global markets and the collaboration has been showcased as part of the wider innovation landscape at CES 2026, where LED powered skin technologies continue to gain recognition as a core pillar of future facing beauty, wellness and medical aesthetics.
