We can also trace the majority of them right back to where they are grown - we call this farm to face. And when it comes to you, our customer, we promise to always be honest and support you in feeling understood, educated, empowered and beautiful.

Scientifically active
and proven skincare
We believe that you shouldn’t have to compromise between having natural formulations and ones that actually work.
Developed by scientists and physiologists with over 100 years combined experience, our formulations focus on the physiology of the skin, determining how multiple ingredient combinations can work in synergy with each other to deliver superior results.
Using cutting edge skincare science, our formulas are engineered with up to 25 meticulously chosen ingredients that individually perform a function, but in synergy work to amplify each other to provide unparallelled results.
We uniquely commission independent laboratories to perform in vivo (on people) and in vitro (in the laboratory) testing on our products, through which Emma Lewisham products have consistently been proven to outperform the market leading brands.

Positive planet skincare
We are extremely passionate about moving the beauty industry towards a circular model - meaning that anything produced can be refilled or recycled with none of our planet’s precious resources ending up as waste. We must move away from the linear system of ‘take, make, waste’, towards a circular system of ‘reduce, reuse, recycle and regenerate’. All Emma Lewisham products are refillable and we go further by taking ownership of everything we produce, taking back all of our used packaging globally, to ensure it is reused or is recycled through our ‘Emma Lewisham Beauty Circle’ partnership. It is important to understand that most beauty containers are not kerbside recyclable, so initiatives such as this are vital in order to redirect waste from landfill and move towards circularity.
With waste being the single biggest contributor to carbon emissions in the beauty industry, we are certified Climate Positive both at a product and business level. This means that after reducing our carbon as much as possible, we offset more than what remains in order to not just neutralise our impact - but create a positive one. Through our efforts in each branch of sustainability, we aim to bring about a truly beautiful, beauty industry.

Luxuriously natural skincare
The most powerful way to interact with the skin is by harnessing nature, therefore we only use natural ingredients, harnessing both bio-identical ingredients found within the skin as well as the specialised, scientifically proven natural plant extracts. These bio-active ingredients work in harmony with the skin to trigger powerful cellular responses that deliver unparalleled results.
We pack our products with not one, but multiple active ingredients, using concentration levels in line with scientific recommendations and absolutely no fillers. This ensures that every drop you use is of a potency proven to perform and is working hard to deliver you visible results. We work in collaboration with global R&D laboratories who are at the forefront of identifying cutting-edge natural ingredients, with our scientists using the most advanced extraction techniques to distil these extracts while making sure that they maintain their full nutrient profile and potency. Some of our hero ingredients include Plant Stem Cells, Saccharide Isomerate (72-hour hydration super ingredient), Ceramides and Lipids, as well as green tech ingredients that are a result of over 5 years of research by the Swiss Institute of Agriculture. Each ingredient undergoes rigorous clinical and scientific vetting and research prior to be used in any of our products. We prioritise using organic extracts and are working towards sourcing all of our ingredients from regenerative farms in order to positively impact both the health of our soil and the livelihoods of our farmers and surrounding communities. Alongside the efficacy of our products, we work tirelessly to create luxurious formulations with velvety, nourishing textures using absolutely no fillers - only nourishing, nutrient rich ingredients - found in nature. Each ingredient undergoes rigorous clinical and scientific vetting and research prior to be used in our products.
