Stellar Décolletage
The challenge: To develop a unique range of high efficacy products targeting the specific skin needs of the neck and chest area.
The solution: A total skin care regime, including a treatment polish and sleep complex, combining high quality facial-grade actives with natural ingredients that work synergistically to improve skin texture, tone and moisture balance. Delivering a smoother, more youthfully radiant décolletage.
The results: Multiple Beauty Shortlist Editors’ Choice awards in the first year of launch.
“Enkos listened and took time to fully understand the brand, we certainly benefited from current ingredient awareness and a pro-active approach to further research. It was a positive partnership and we look forward to working together on future projects.”
Primark
The challenge: To develop part of a collection that delivered performance at a price point accessible to all. Products needed to be cruelty free, fragrance free, vegan friendly without parabens, phthalates, essential oils or sulfates.

The results: Extensive press coverage and huge commercial success with high efficacy formulations offered at a low price point.
