Description
Support. Hydrate. Comfort. Repeat.
This lightweight, no-fuss serum is powered by just two purposeful ingredients: Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) and Sodium Hyaluronate (a form of hyaluronic acid). Together, they help support the skin barrier, improve the look of uneven tone, and maintain hydration for skin that feels balanced and comfortable.
Created by a cosmetic chemist with sensitive skin in mind, this minimalist formula is ideal for skin that feels easily overwhelmed, prone to breakouts, or simply over complicated routines.
✨ Bonus: Niacinamide is known to help improve the appearance of visible pores and skin texture over time when used consistently. Plus excess oil.

What's in it & WHY
💧 Sodium Hyaluronate
Is a humectant that helps attract and retain moisture on the skin’s surface, supporting hydration and a smoother, more supple looking appearance. As a smaller, more stable form of hyaluronic acid, it helps maintain skin comfort and hydration over time, making it well suited to routines focused on supporting the skin barrier and overall skin balance.
✨ Niacinamide (Vitamin B3)
Helps support the skin barrier while improving the appearance of uneven tone and texture. Known for its versatility, this well tolerated ingredient helps promote skin comfort and balance, making it especially well suited to sensitive or easily reactive skin when used as part of a consistent routine.
This serum is AMAZING! I have been differing with extreme neck itching for months with menopause. Dr put me on cortisone cream which helps a little bit. I used this serum and after just 3 days, the itching is completely gone! This is my new holy grail product!

You Ask, We Skin-cerely Answer
Click to expand the answers to your most glow-pressing questions
Skincare can be confusing, but it doesn’t have to be. We’ve answered the most common questions we get (with zero marketing spin) to help you shop smarter and skin better.
Q: Why does my Sweet dreams oil look a different colour?
Our Rosehip oil is a RAW Cold pressed botanical ingredient. As with all natural plant oils, slight variations in colour and texture can occur between batches. These variations are normal and do not affect the quality, performance , or formulation of the product.
The formula has not changed, and all batches meet the same quality specifications.
Q: What makes Emily Luise Skin different?
A: We’re founded by a cosmetic chemist who actually formulates the products. Everything is designed with sensitive, reactive skin in mind, no fluff, no filler, just thoughtful, results driven formulas.
Q: What does it mean to be “minimal ingredients”?
A: It means we only include what your skin actually needs, nothing extra, nothing unnecessary. Fewer ingredients can help reduce the risk of irritation and support a calmer, more balanced skin barrier.
Q: Why is the skin barrier important?
A: Your skin barrier is your face’s personal bodyguard. If it’s compromised, everything from redness to breakouts gets worse. Our products are designed to protect and strengthen it, so your skin stays happy, healthy, and glow-ready.
Q: What should I expect this brand to do for me?
A: Most people notice more even toned, glowier skin when and less irritation or flare ups. Our formulas are designed to support your barrier, so your skin can finally chill, heal, and do what it’s meant to. No false promises, just real results with consistent use.
Q: What does being hypoallergenic mean?
A: It means the product is formulated with the goal of being less likely to cause an allergic reaction. We prioritise minimal, purposeful ingredient lists and avoid common irritants wherever possible, especially for sensitive or reactive skin.
(But remember, nothing is 100% allergy-proof, not even your favourite oat milk.)
Some products contain naturally occurring botanical ingredients.

The Skin That Started It All
I was 33, fed up, and hiding behind makeup. Nothing worked, so I went deep on the science and made my own. Now in my late 30s, my skin’s never been better. Emily Luise Skin is proof that it’s never too late to fix your skin and finally feel good in it.
I started using Emily Luise’s Sweet Dreams Face Oil a few weeks ago, and I can honestly say it's the best decision I’ve made for my skin. I have always struggled with dull, uneven skin texture and occasional redness, but this oil has completely transformed my complexion. From the first application, it felt like a luxury spa treatment at home lightweight, non-greasy, and the delicate floral scent instantly calmed my senses.

I love how lightweight this face oil is! It absorbs quickly and leaves my skin feeling nourished and radiant, without any greasiness

Sensitive skin & Vegan
Test tubes > tears. Hypoallergenic by design. Every formula is designed to be kind to even the crankiest skin, no added fragrances, no nasties, no animal by-products. We patch-test, triple-check, and keep our INCI lists short so your skin stays calm, not chaotic. Science meets softness.
* Some products contain naturally occurring botanical ingredients.

No Bunnies No Bullshit
Animal testing is banned in Australia, and frankly, outdated across most of the world. So why do we still say cruelty-free? Because not everyone knows that. And until they do, we're shouting it loud and clear.
We test only on willing humans (mostly ourselves) and formulate with ethics, not marketing fluff. Because being kind isn't a trend, it's the baseline. -
Minimal Ingredients
Fewer ingredients. Fewer reactions. More results. We choose each component like it’s going to a dinner party, only the most functional, well-mannered ingredients make the guest list. No fillers, no fluff, just straight-up efficacy with every pump.

Australian made
Formulated, filled and loved right here in Australia. Our products are built for real skin, real climates, and real results, with a bit of Aussie grit and scientific wit thrown in. Homegrown and high-performing.
What ingredient do you think is underestimated the most?
Niacinamide works quietly over time to actually improve skin function—regulating oil, strengthening the barrier, reducing redness, and evening tone. But because it takes a few weeks to show, people give up before it shines.
