From our beginning in 1934 we have always provided pharmaceutical skincare solutions from apothecary creams, emollients and lotions. We have become specialists in the formulation of dermatological skincare. Elave is developed for the most reactive sensitive skin types so our skincare is free from the common “triggers” for sensitive skin conditions, like eczema and dermatitis. We’ve taken out the worrying chemicals that are believed by experts to be increasing the incidence of sensitive skin. And these same chemicals should be worrying for all of us.

Just as we now know to look at and question what’s in our food, where it’s from and what it’s been through, I believe that skincare should be just as questioned. To me it’s an obvious link but don’t take my word for it. We have put together this site to be an informative link to expert reports from newspapers, web campaigns and medical research to show you how to identify the harmful chemicals in skincare. Just as we watch what we eat and put into our bodies more and more of us are watching what we put on our bodies. I hope this site will lead to safer skincare choices for you.
