I was recently invited to present Skin Elixir's Self-Regulation Skincare™ approach at University of Nottingham Dermatology Society Conference.
I built every product in my Core Five on two powerhouse botanicals: Black Seed Oil and Frankincense.
I use Black Seed Oil for its potent compound, Thymoquinone - a scientific marvel for skin health that calms inflammation and fights oxidative stress. I pair this with Frankincense across the entire range to rejuvenate, firm the skin and promote self-regulation.
For those seeking the results of Retinol but without the irritation, I have infused Bakuchiol into my Intensive Night Cream, All Around Eyes Elixir, and Super Natural Oil - my 'retinol alternative' trio for cellular renewal and skin firming action.

Shop The Oil DuoThe Original. The Independent. The Only Skin Elixir you need to truly nourish the skin you're in.
I'm Shona Munro, the Alchemist and Formulator of Skin Elixir®. For 10 years, I've been formulating by hand with Thymoquinone - a potent compound found in Black Seed Oil. Not in a generic lab. Not in theory. But in my hands, in my micro-batches, and on real skin.
This hands-on approach is why my customers have remained loyal for 10 years. I know it works because I've seen it heal rosacea, calm inflammation, and transform skin that nothing else could touch.
