I Didn't Know Where To Start With My Ageing Skin. Then I Found Two Products That Made The Biggest Difference.
Here's the truth about my skin...
I’ve always loved skincare, but as my skin started showing more signs of ageing, I found myself looking for products that could actually make a difference. Fine lines, dullness, dehydration, and loss of firmness seemed to creep up gradually, and knowing where to start felt overwhelming.

And honestly, I didn’t want a complicated routine.

What I really wanted was a few products I could trust. Products that were backed by science, easy to use, and designed to support healthier-looking skin over time.

That’s when I found ESK.

Two products quickly became my hero picks: C Forte in the morning and Ultimate A Gold at night. Together, they targeted exactly what I wanted to improve — brightness, hydration, fine lines, and overall skin quality.

The changes didn’t happen overnight, but they happened consistently.

My skin started looking brighter, plumper, and more hydrated. The fine lines became less noticeable, my skin felt smoother, and it looked healthier overall.

For me, these two products are the perfect place to start. They’ve become the foundation of my routine, and I genuinely wouldn’t want to be without them.

The Evidence Based Framework: 3 pathways, 1 simple routine
Dermatological research shows that some of the most effective anti-ageing ingredients work by addressing multiple concerns at once. Supporting collagen production, improving skin renewal, boosting hydration, and protecting the skin barrier all play an important role in maintaining brighter, smoother, firmer-looking skin over time.

Take a Closer Look at the Two Products

C FORTE:

C Forte is not recommended for sensitive or acne-prone skin, as the high concentration of L-Ascorbic Acid and its low pH can be too stimulating for reactive skin and may exacerbate breakouts. Those who only get occasional hormonal pimples may still be able to use it by applying it while avoiding blemish-prone areas. For sensitive skin, C Serum Lite is the gentler alternative.

ULTIMATE A GOLD:


EXPECTATIONS, THE GOOD THINGS - 

Most clinical trials run 8-12 weeks, but real-world results often start sooner:

Smoother skin: Exfoliation results in 5-7 days 
Wrinkles & fine lines reduction: Usually visible in 3-4 weeks
Even skin tone: Pigmentation varies - surface issues (4-6 weeks), deeper pigmentation (2-3 months), dermal pigmentation (6-12 months, may not respond to topicals)

THE OTHER THINGS - 

When introducing skin cell turnover ingredients (Vitamin A and PHAs), some may experience temporary dryness or a few pimples in the first month, lasting no more than a week. If you experience more or longer-lasting effects, contact our customer care team - we’re here to help you achieve your best skin. 

C FORTE

Apply 1 – 2 pumps to fingertips and apply to face after cleansing in the morning. Also for use on décolletage, back of hands, and forearms. 

For use on normal skin (in a dry climate) & dry skin. 

ULTIMATE A GOLD

Apply 1 – 2 pumps to the fingertips and apply to the face after cleansing as the final step in your night-time routine night. Also, for use on décolletage, back of hands and forearms.

Note: Do not use if pregnant, breastfeeding or trying to conceive.

Why these two products work when everything else didn't.
💡 The combination of Vitamin C + Retinal is what made such a difference to my ageing skin. One helps brighten and protect the skin throughout the day, while the other helps renew the skin and support collagen production overnight. Most anti-ageing products focus on just one concern at a time. That's a bit like trying to renovate a house by only working on one room.

Vitamin C helps defend against environmental damage while improving the appearance of dullness and supporting a brighter, more radiant complexion. At the same time, Retinal supports skin renewal to help improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, texture, and firmness. Combined together, you're not just targeting visible signs of ageing — you're helping your skin look brighter, smoother, plumper, and healthier over time.
C Forte
01
C Forte
Uses 16% Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid) alongside Vitamin E and Ferulic Acid to help brighten the complexion, defend against environmental damage, and support healthier-looking skin.

💡 This is why my skin started looking brighter, fresher, and more radiant. It helped bring life back to skin that was looking dull, tired, and dehydrated.
Ultimate A Gold
02
Ultimate A Gold
Uses 0.1% Retinal — not Retinol. Retinal is the next-generation form of Vitamin A. It works faster and more effectively while still being exceptionally well-tolerated by the skin.

💡 This is the ingredient that supports collagen production and skin renewal, helping improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, texture, and firmness while you sleep.

Wouldn’t use anything else

Driven by evidence and proven results
Driven by evidence and proven results
When it comes to skincare, the noise is endless, but the science doesn't lie. ESK was co-founded by Dr. Ginni Mansberg, one of Australia's most trusted GPs and media doctors, who was frustrated by a market full of big claims and little proof.

At ESK, everything comes back to two things: Evidence and Integrity. Working alongside doctors, dermatologists and scientists, Dr. Ginni built a range where every ingredient earns its place, proven to work in peer reviewed journals.

The result is skincare that's effective, easy to use, and ethical, formulated for real skin concerns, with ingredients that are as well-tolerated as they are proven.

If you want a range that simply works, you're in the right place.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who can use this skincare regime? Plus
This routine is ideal for those concerned about fine lines, wrinkles, dullness, dehydration, and other visible signs of ageing. It combines a high-strength Vitamin C serum and a potent Retinal night cream to help support brighter, smoother, firmer-looking skin. Due to the active ingredients, it is not recommended during pregnancy and may not be suitable for very sensitive or reactive skin types.
How do I use this regime? Plus
1) Apply C Forte after cleansing and before sunscreen in the morning.

2) At night, after cleansing (and serum if applicable), apply Ultimate A Gold.
Can you tell me about each product? Plus
C Forte
A morning serum packed with 16% L-ascorbic acid, the purest form of Vitamin C, combined with vitamin E and ferulic acid for maximum results. Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) is an anti-oxidant helping neutralise free radicals (associated with exposure to the sun). The result? A brighter, firmer, plumper looking skin with fewer fine lines apparent and a more even skin tone. Formulated at the ideal pH (2.5-3.5) and housed in airless, opaque packaging, C Forte ensures stability and effectiveness, delivering radiant skin with every use.

Ultimate A Gold
A revolutionary evening cream formulated with 0.1% Retinal, an advanced form of Vitamin A that delivers greater efficacy than retinol while being designed with skin tolerance in mind. Ideal for those seeking a high-performance night-time skincare option, it combines a powerful blend of ingredients to support skin that can be sensitive, reactive, or prone to irritation.

Featuring 5% Niacinamide (Vitamin B3), 5% Lactobionic Acid (a gentle PHA), 0.1% 4-n-Butylresorcinol (an advanced pigmentation corrector), 1.6% Hyaluronic Acid, and 0.06% Ceramides, this multi-tasking formula helps promote a smoother, more even-looking complexion while supporting the skin barrier and hydration overnight.
What is retinal and how is it different to retinol? Plus
Retinal (Retinaldehyde) is the more effective and gentle form of Vitamin A. It works faster and more effectively than Retinol, and all without the irritation! Because Retinal has fewer steps to convert into the active form of Vitamin A in the skin, it is used a lower concentrations than Retinol, so while it is more effective it is also very well tolerated.
