This product represents everything I believe about aging well, skin health, and true cellular rejuvenation, and I’m so proud to finally share it with you.

What’s in EllieVate Skin+ and why is it so effective? What makes it different from other skincare brands?
EllieVate Skin+ is a clinically formulated, prescription-grade serum that combines science-backed active ingredients with luxury-grade cosmetic components. It’s designed to address visible signs of aging – including fine lines, dullness, loss of firmness, and uneven texture – by targeting the skin at the cellular level. Each bottle contains: Tretinoin 0.027% – A gold-standard retinoid that accelerates cellular turnover, fades discoloration, and smooths fine lines. GHK-Cu (Copper Tripeptide-1) 1% – A potent copper peptide that supports collagen production and skin repair. NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) 0.5% – A coenzyme that replenishes cellular energy and improves skin renewal. Spilanthol (Acmella Oleracea Extract) 1% – A natural muscle relaxant that softens expression lines around the eyes, mouth, and forehead. Niacinamide 5% – Strengthens the skin barrier, reduces redness and pigmentation, and improves elasticity. Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate (Vitamin C) 3% – A stable form of Vitamin C that brightens skin and stimulates collagen production.

All actives are delivered using our proprietary EllievaTec™ absorption technology, ensuring deep dermal penetration and maximum effectiveness. This is not a personalized formula – it’s one universal, expertly crafted treatment designed to deliver exceptional results across skin types when used as directed.
How should I use EllieVate Skin+?
Apply 2 full pumps of EllieVate Skin+ to clean, dry skin every evening before bed. Gently massage the serum into your face, avoiding the eyes, lips, and any broken skin. Always follow with a gentle moisturizer if needed and apply broad-spectrum SPF daily. Because this is an airless pump bottle, it may take a few initial pumps to release product, especially if it’s your first time using it. This is normal – continue pressing down until the serum dispenses. If your skin feels sensitive or dry when starting out, you can apply it every other night for the first 1–2 weeks as your skin adjusts.
My skin seems to be getting worse. What’s causing this?
You may be experiencing what’s known as purging – a temporary and common response to active ingredients like Tretinoin. Here’s what’s happening: Tretinoin accelerates your skin’s natural exfoliation process, increasing cell turnover and bringing underlying debris, oil, and bacteria to the surface more quickly than usual. This can trigger breakouts, redness, flaking, or inflammation, even if you haven’t broken out in a while. This is not a bad reaction – it’s your skin clearing out what’s been sitting below the surface. For some, purging begins around week 1 or 2 and may last up to 6 weeks. After this period, your skin typically stabilizes and begins to visibly improve. Tips to manage the purging phase: Reduce usage -Try applying EllieVate Skin+ every other night instead of nightly. Be gentle -Avoid exfoliants, scrubs, or any products with harsh actives. Hydrate -Use a fragrance-free, barrier-repair moisturizer. Don’t pick -Picking or popping can lead to scarring or prolong inflammation. Reach out – If you’re unsure or symptoms persist beyond 8 weeks, contact us. Our team is here to support your skin journey.
When will I see results?
Most users begin to notice improvements in 4 to 8 weeks, with optimal results continuing over 3 to 6 months. Results may include smoother texture, improved firmness, reduced fine lines, and a brighter, more even tone. Consistency is key. Your skin is being reprogrammed at a cellular level – and real change takes time.
Why is my formula blue?
The blue color comes from GHK-Cu, a naturally occurring copper peptide that has a distinct bluish hue. This ingredient plays a powerful role in collagen production and skin regeneration – and the color is a visible sign of its presence and potency.
Is EllieVate Skin+ safe for all skin types?
EllieVate Skin+ was formulated for normal, dry, combination, and oily skin. However, due to the potency of prescription-grade ingredients like Tretinoin and NAD+, it may not be suitable for: People with rosacea or active eczema/psoriasis flares Those with extremely sensitive or compromised skin barriers Anyone who is pregnant or breastfeeding Individuals allergic to retinoids, copper peptides, or any formula component If you’re unsure, we recommend consulting with your provider before beginning use.
Are there any side effects?
Mild side effects may include dryness, flaking, redness, tightness, or sensitivity, especially in the first 2-4 weeks. These symptoms are common with actives like Tretinoin and NAD+ and usually subside as your skin builds tolerance. Using a gentle moisturizer and sunscreen can help reduce discomfort. If you experience persistent is burning, swelling, or rash, discontinue use and contact your provider.
Can I use this with other skincare products?
Yes – but keep your routine simple and supportive. We recommend: Gentle cleanser EllieVate Skin+ (PM only) Moisturizer SPF (AM) Avoid using additional exfoliants, acids, or retinoids while using EllieVate Skin+ to prevent over-irritation.
Do I need a prescription?
