Myth
“60% of what we put on our skin ends up in our bloodstream”
Luckily, the skin is a pretty good barrier that keeps the outside world out. It's actually a formulation challenge to get ingredients in your cosmetic products to absorb even just into the layers of the epidermis, let alone the dermis and beyond. Cosmetic products at large typically just interact with the outermost layer of your skin. Any ingredient proven to show absorption would be banned or requre significantly more safety data to be permissable.

We are Isla
A skincare company with old roots trying a brand new approach. Started by beauty insiders who were fed up, overwhelmed and confused about the way information is relayed and products are developed in the industry. We launched Isla in 2020 with one simple goal: Cut through the noise and take the guesswork out of skincare by creating products that do what they say and being a company that says what they do. Always honest, always expert, always innovative. We're Isla.
