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.

Great serum

I have used this serum for many years.
My favourite.

Excellent hyaluronic acid eye serum

Quannessence Skincare Essentials 4- piece set

Beautiful set for me, contains QRenew, QFirm, and QAlchemy in a carry bag. I use QFirm and QRenew regularly, love these products as well as QHyaluron and QLuminess. I alternate between Renew and Hyaluron and this is my first time purchasing Alchemy to use over the winter on my very mature face. Enjoy using Quannessence products very much, been using them for perhaps eight years now!

Great Serum

The serum applies easily and it leaves the skin feeling smooth. I haven’t been using it long enough to see the full promised effects, but the first impressions are good.

So beautifully hydrating!

My skin just loves it! It feels so refreshing and hydrating!

My AM Glam Spritz

I feel like a queen when I spritz my face with this toner. My face feels refreshed, and I use it after a hot flash (because hey! That’s me now) to perk myself up. I do find that, in conjunction with my serum and moisturizer, it enhances the efficacy of my routine.

Q Tight Serum

Helps soften frown lines and firms skin. Love this product so much !

QNourish Vitamin Lotion
Shantelle David
Lovely!

A little goes along way with this cream! My skin feels nourished, and it is gentle on my sensitive skin.

Moisturize without the heaviness

I have come to love the Quannessence products I’ve used. QNourish is the perfect finisher (after cleansing and serum). My face feels soft to the touch and looks smoother. It is full of moisture and support but goes on with a light feel.

QEquinox Mature Redefining Cream

Love this product line. Use them regularly each am and pm. Thankyou for such a great product for mature skin!
