BOTANY MEETS BIOLOGY
Clinically proven results-driven skincare that actually works.
Our why
The skincare industry today is a minefield of so-called “experts” peddling unproven advice, products marketed as miracle cures, and manipulative tactics like misleading before-and-after photos. It’s no wonder so many people feel lost and frustrated, struggling to navigate endless choices—often at the expense of their skin’s health. We get it; it’s chaos out there!
Enter Science Skincare, born from founder Adjunct Associate Professor Elissa O’Keefe’s lifelong journey to heal her own problematic skin. From battling moderate acne from the age of ten, to spending vast amounts of money on useless products, to enduring countless treatments, scars, and tears, Elissa set out to create a better path for others. Her quest led her to unearth the finest skincare ingredients—meticulously blending the potent healing power of Australian botanicals with clinically-proven actives to strengthen the skin barrier and restore skin health.

Meet our Founder
It has long been a dream of mine to source and share the most ethical and exquisite skincare products available.
As a teenager and well into my adult life I suffered from problem skin with acne and scarring and have always sought out the best possible skincare ingredients and treatments to care for my skin. To read more about my personal skin journey click here.
I have grown from being such a self-conscious teenager and young adult that I wouldn’t have my photo taken; into a self-assured woman who isn’t afraid to have her face out there!
Now that dream of mine is a reality. I hope you love Science Skincare as much as I do.
Proven, beautiful.
Love, Elissa xx
