ESK Benefits
Most skin types, if you are extremely sensitive, please reach out to our customer service team at info@eskcare.com
Skin pH
Your skin's pH level sits at 4.9 and it's important to use skincare products with a similar pH. Products with higher pH levels can damage the skin resulting in dryness, itchiness and sensitivity. Subsequently, skin conditions such as Rosacea, Eczema and Acne can flare up.
Niacinamide
Also known as Vitamin B3. Niacinamide is a well-studied ingredient that helps maintain a healthy skin barrier and supports an even-looking skin tone. It is well tolerated and suitable for all skin types, making it a versatile addition to many skincare formulations.
Salicylic Acid
Salicylic Acid gently exfoliates the skin. It helps improve skin texture and supports a smoother, more refined appearance.
Retinal
Also known as Vitamin A, Retinal is a next-generation retinoid used in skincare to help refine skin texture and improve the appearance of uneven tone and visible signs of ageing. It’s well tolerated and suitable for most skin types, including those that find traditional retinoids too harsh.
Glycolic and Lactic Acid
Also known as Alpha Hydroxy Acids. Glycolic and Lactic Acid exfoliate and smooth the skin surfaces.
Green Tea
Green Tea Extract is a plant-based antioxidant that supports the skin’s surface and helps maintain an even-looking tone and smoother texture.
Resveratrol
Resveratrol is a plant-derived antioxidant that helps support an even-looking skin tone and improves the appearance of skin texture and smoothness.
Tea Tree Oil
May be beneficial for acne and potentially psoriasis too.
Ferulic Acid
Ferulic acid’s emerging evidence suggests it can improve the effectiveness of Vitamin C and help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Hyaluronic Acid
The optimum size of Hyaluronic Acid for skincare is still a topic of research. Emerging evidence suggests that medium-size HA can support skin hydration and help improve the appearance of skin smoothness and plumpness.
Ceramides
Emerging evidence suggests that smaller ceramides support the skin’s surface and help maintain hydration and the appearance of a healthy skin barrier.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Calming Cleanse — A cream based cleanser with a pH of 4.5–5, designed for skin that is reactive or prone to irritation. Maintaining the correct skin pH is important because when pH rises above the skin's natural range, the skin barrier weakens and conditions like acne can worsen.
- B Calm — A morning moisturiser with Niacinamide (Vitamin B3), Ceramides, and Salicylic Acid. Salicylic Acid is oil-soluble, which allows it to penetrate into the pore lining and exfoliate from within — making it one of the most well-supported topical ingredients for acne-prone skin. Niacinamide helps regulate oil production and supports the skin barrier, which often becomes compromised when breakouts are frequent.
- Zinc Shade — A broad-spectrum SPF 15 matte day cream with Zinc Oxide. UV exposure causes inflammation that worsens active breakouts and increases the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation — the dark marks that persist long after a blemish clears. Daily sun protection also matters with Retinal use at night, as Vitamin A increases photosensitivity. Zinc oxide has anti-inflammatory properties that make it particularly well-suited to acne-prone skin.
- Gentle Glow PHA Serum — A night serum with Lactobionic Acid and Gluconolactone (both polyhydroxy acids). PHAs are gentler than AHAs because their larger molecular structure means slower, more superficial penetration, making them well-tolerated on reactive or sensitised skin. They exfoliate the surface to support cell turnover, hydrate simultaneously, and may reduce irritation from other actives used alongside them. Applied before Ultimate A+.
- Ultimate A+ — A night cream with 0.1% Retinal, Niacinamide, and 2% Glycolic Acid. Retinal normalises skin cell turnover, which directly addresses one of the two main factors that cause pores to block in the first place. Niacinamide adds barrier support and helps reduce the appearance of post-breakout pigmentation. The inclusion of Glycolic Acid in the same formula supports surface renewal without requiring a separate exfoliating step.
- Hydroxy Overnight Mask — A weekly overnight treatment with 5% Salicylic Acid and 10% Urea. Used 1–2 nights per week in place of Ultimate A+, or applied as a spot treatment directly onto active blemishes. The Urea at this concentration acts as a humectant to counterbalance any drying effect from the Salicylic Acid.
- Spotless Microneedle Patches — Each patch contains 300 dissolving Hyaluronic Acid microneedles (0.3mm) loaded with Salicylic Acid, Niacinamide, Tea Tree Oil, Green Tea Extract, Ferulic Acid, and Resveratrol. The microneedles dissolve into the skin within hours, delivering actives more directly to an early-stage blemish than a standard surface patch can. Best used on blemishes that are forming but not yet fully surfaced. Less effective on large, deep cystic breakouts.
Either works, but overnight is generally better. We recommend the patches to stay undisturbed for 8 hours to dissolve fully and deliver their actives, and night is the easiest time to guarantee that. They're most effective on early-stage blemishes, the ones you can feel forming under the skin before they fully surface. They're not well-suited to large, deep cystic breakouts, which sit too far below the surface for the microneedles to reach.

"Prior to using ESK my skin was horrible, I tried lots of different skin care products, medication, saw a skin care specialist and nothing worked. It was my mum that actually found ESK and got me using the products and within a week my skin had already cleared up. I absolutely love how they feel and how reliable this brand is. I use my products every day morning and night and don't know what I would do without them!"

"I’ve never been so excited to share my results & most importantly my love for ESK Skincare.. I’ve been using their products for about 1 year now and I’ve never been so happy with the state of my skin. After suffering from Acne for 5+ years, I was recommended ESK from a family friend, since then I’ve never looked back.. Within 3 weeks of using the products I noticed a huge difference in the texture & size of my Acne. I love that ESK is evidence based skincare, uses scientifically tested products and really cares about their customers. After spending years and years trying skincare products, I’m so glad I found ESK.. never looking back!"

"Acne, rosacea, uneven texture and tone, hormonal breakouts resulting in a lack of confidence. I have taken a before photo with make up on (to cover up my skin issues) and an after photo with no make up on. I can not thank ESK enough for helping me feel comfortable in my own skin again and feel confident without wearing make up! It has made my morning and evening routine quicker and easier, it has strengthened my skin in a short time and most importantly, it has made me feel good about myself!"

"My experience - My skin has always been terribly hard to control acne wise. I have struggled with acne for 15 years and have tried almost every product under the sun (or so it feels). I am used to a lot of cystic acne along the jawline and neck. After using these products, my skin broke out into a lot of tiny bumps and texture. My skin got significantly worse but I was supported all the way by Tess. I am persevering and can happily say the last few days my skin is beginning to clear. I do have significant scarring and a few big bumps but the overall skin health is beginning to improve again. I cannot fault the customer service and support from your team! I am truly hoping this line are the products I have been dreaming of in the long run!"

"My skin has never been super great but it hasn't been super problematic either. It's that traditional combination skin that gets a lot of hormonal breakouts. At 31, I'm a little bit sick of having breakouts AND developing lines as well. I'm all for aging naturally and at the same time, slowing down the process and caring for my skin is important to me. I decided to try ESK because I appreciated the evidence base and the fact that the recommended starter kits didn't have a million different things to do. I work in a rewarding yet demanding job with long days and I need a skin-care routine that is simple and effective. ESK has definitely been that! I've been using it for just over a month now and I have definitely noticed a difference. My skin is a lot more firm and pigmentation has decreased. My usual monthly-hormone breakout was greatly reduced as well. One of the most wonderful aspects of my ESK journey so far has been the customer service. I have NEVER experienced such individualised, supportive customer service and I think that demonstrates how much this company actually wants to help their customers (rather than just getting their money). I highly recommend this brand of skincare and am so glad I found it."

"Iv suffered from acne most of my life, iv tried everything even accutane twice. Most things don't work or have been a short term fix for me.
This year a friend recommended ESK, actually gifted me some and it honestly changed my life. Iv repurchased packs multiple times and will continue to do so. The shipping is super fast and I love the packaging. It has a clinical aesthetic but also feels very lux.
Every product I've tried has felt amazing and as you can see from my before and afters WORKED! I feel confident knowing they're filled with active ingredients that actually make a difference to my skin and not just empty promises.
I can't describe the happiness and confidence my clear, healthy skin has given me."

"I have been using the Normal Skin Anti-aging kit for over 4 weeks now. I bought the travel size so I could test it for myself but will definitely be investing in a full-size kit. Whilst I originally would have said that fine lines were my number concern, after taking my 'before' photo and zooming in, I realised pigmentation from sun damage was probably a bigger problem...and that's where I've noticed the biggest change. In a short amount of time, the pigmentation has faded a lot. I can't wait to see what happens over the next few months. I've always used a simple skincare routine and my skin has been okay, but it's feeling more hydrated and smooth and looks brighter. I love the fact that this is uncomplicated, numbered and contains everything my skin needs. I also purchased the eye cream which feels amazing and has softened the lines around my eyes. I would highly recommend ESK skincare, especially those people who are confused by the endless list of everything you're told you need for your skin. These kits simplify everything."

"I sent through a photo late last year due to my skin flaring up after using ESK. However, I decided to stick to it - added the smooth serum into my routine and couldn't be happier with my results so far. I don't know if my reaction was from just starting active ingredients, but it was probably something else. My skin is far from perfect, but it's better than it has been in years! And I can even show my face makeup free without feeling uncomfortable. I'll send you an update, thank you for creating such amazing products"
