Company Overview
Most people associate probiotics (good microbes) with maintaining a healthy gut, but new research has shown that microbes are also essential for perfect skin. The Human Microbiome Project has discovered that optimal skin health is dependent on the presence of trillions of microbes living on, and in, your skin.


There are ten microbes for every human cell in your body and this finding has turned the conventional view of skincare on it’s head. It turns out that skin is a complex ecosystem – an intricate, intermingled mix of human and microbial cells that work together to optimise barrier function and keep moisture in.


Esse has used this new revelation to formulate products that maintain a balance of microbes to slow the ageing process. To do this, Esse uses prebiotics to selectively feed good microbes and they’ve used probiotic microbes in some products to deliver specific results.

We have also kept our core ethics in place since the brands inception in 2002 – we are certified organic by Ecocert in France and accredited by the Vegan Society. It’s also cruelty-free and has strong Fair Trade credentials.
