Oür Story
A young woman from a small island went to Germany to study holistic skincare. Her name was Sharon, and she knew she'd found her life's work. She came back to Prince Edward Island, and over the next twenty-odd years, she performed facial treatments on thousands of satisfied clients.
Sharon herself was not yet fulfilled as she could not find the natural skincare creams and serums to achieve the results she desired for her beloved clients. She wanted to give them healthy, radiant skin quickly, but everything she tried fell short.
She nurtured the dream of creating a natural skincare line that would perform to her exacting specifications for a long time. But, as a single mom raising her two beautiful children, she couldn't do it independently. Which meant her dream had to wait.
Today, Sharon is finally able to manifest her vision for holistic skincare. She has brought together an enthusiastic team devoted to combining nature's bounty in novel formulations. Guided by traditional knowledge and cutting-edge science, they perfected each formula over many iterations until it was Quannefied. Once merely just a dream, Sharon has created to provide her adored clients with the Deeply Beautiful HealthySkin™ she always knew they were worthy of.
Oür Philosophy
We are proudly Canadian, and we strive to offer a premium self-care brand with a holistic approach to skincare sourced from nature's best.
Quannessence Skincare is based on five guiding tenets that reflect the philosophy of the company's approach to everything we do:
Safe Healthy Products: No matter what products we produce, the most important principle that guides us is that they must be safe and healthy for the skin.
Functional: Every product we produce must have proven results and be considered the best our clients have ever used. We will not use ingredients for label appeal, with all ingredients being used at optimal concentrations.
Natural: We base our line on natural ingredients and, wherever possible, use plant-derived extracts with a proven history of safety and functionality.
Treatment Based: All our products form part of advanced professional treatments performed by professional skincare providers and used in home-based treatment regimens.
Cost-Effective: Our products are formulated to be extremely cost-effective by maximizing potency so only small amounts are used, thereby ensuring maximum value for our clients.
