Frequently asked questions | ElleCera
We understand that you don't put just anything on your skin. That's why we answer the questions we get asked most right here. About use, sensitive skin, shipping, returns and everything in between. Can't find your question? Feel free to get in touch.
Product & skin
Is ElleCera suitable for sensitive skin?
Our formulas are developed with respect for the skin barrier. That means no aggressive approach and no unnecessary overstimulation. Many customers with sensitive or reactive skin experience more comfort and skin that feels calmer. Not sure? Patch test on a small area of skin first.
Which skin type are your products suitable for?
ElleCera is developed for skin that is easily thrown off balance. Think dry, sensitive or combination skin that needs calm and stability. Our products suit most skin types looking for simplicity and comfort.
Does this help with redness or irritation?
Our products are not a medical treatment. They are designed to support the skin and help it feel comfortable. Many customers experience less tightness and a calmer feel to their skin with consistent use.
Can I combine ElleCera with other skincare?
Yes. We do recommend a calm routine. Too many (strong) products at once can throw the skin off balance. Less is often more.
How long before I notice a difference?
That varies from skin to skin. Some customers notice more comfort within a few days. For a visible improvement in skin balance, we recommend at least 2–4 weeks of consistent use.
Do your products contain perfume?
We avoid aggressive fragrances. Any subtle scent comes from the ingredients themselves.
Do you test on animals?
✔️ No. ElleCera does not test on animals.
✔️ We comply with European cosmetics regulations.
Use & routine
How do I get the best from the products?
Apply to clean skin. Use lighter textures first, followed by richer products. A simple routine of cleansing, caring and moisturising is usually all you need.
Can I use the products every day?
✔️ Yes, they're developed for daily use.
✔️ Suitable for morning and evening, unless stated otherwise on the packaging.
How do I build a simple routine?
✔️ Cleanse
✔️ Care (e.g. serum)
✔️ Moisturise (cream)
More steps are usually not needed to keep your skin calm.
Can I use this during pregnancy?
If in doubt, we always advise you to consult your GP or specialist. Every situation is personal.
Ordering & delivery
