Meet the Formulator
Hey! I am Emily, a qualified Cosmetic Formulator and founder of Emily Luise Skin.
In my late 20's I had reactive skin, closed comedones and a bunch a fine lines. I was a confused, fed up consumer searching for the next trend that promised me Hollywood skin, but all it left me with was an empty wallet.
I needed a routine that was going to be affordable, easy to keep up with and not flare my eczema. I became obsessed with individual ingredients rather than brands. This lead me down the path of studying Cosmetic Chemistry. I enjoyed it so much, it consumed my every waking moment.
What I discovered was, and excuse me for sounding clique, less is definitely more. I loved particular ingredients but found it hard to find them paired neatly and minimalistically in already on the market formulations. So I made my own.
Once this worked for me and I was able to transform my own skin so dramatically I started testing the waters with others, well, it worked for them also. See, in a world where we are all chasing the next shiny object, sometimes all we need is to come back to basics. Simple routine, with minimal ingredients, just enough to support the skin instead of overwhelming it.
I don't believe skincare should steal the spotlight, I believe SKIN is the main character and every formula I create exists to support it.

01 Cleanse
Start with a cleanse Slate
Gently cleanse away the day without leaving your skin feeling stripped. add water to activate, massage over damp skin, then rinse. Use as second step in a 2 step cleansing routine or on it's own in a single cleansing routine.
AM and/or PM
02 PREPARE
Prepare your skin for what comes next
Sweep gently over clean skin to remove any lingering residue and refresh the skin before your next steps. Particularly handy when your skin is feeling congested and great to prepare the skin for actives. Extra tip: great as a single refresh whilst traveling.
PM
03 HYDRATE
Add a little hydration
Mist generously over the face to add a lightweight hydration and leave skin slightly damp, ready for your serum. Extra Tip: Can be used on it's own throughout the day, smells amazing.
AM and PM
04 TREAT
Targeted hydration & barrier support
Apply to slightly damp skin to deliver a concentrated boost of hydration while niacinamide helps support the skin barrier and improve the appearance of uneven skin tone.
AM and PM
05 SEAL
Seal it all in
Finish with a few drops of face oil, gently pressing into the skin as a final step of your evening routine to add moisture. This can be done following your favourite moisturiser if you are on the dryer side.
PM
Anytime - Nourish
Don't forget your lips
Smooth over lips whenever they need a little extra love. Use throughout the day or apply a generous layer before bed for soft, nourished lips.
Extra tip: Great for eyelid eczema
