Essènci is born from an unwavering belief in living beauty
A beauty that honors the lifeforce of nature, transcends the surface, and restores skin, mind, and spirit through a holistic ritual of renewal.
Each formula is a curated alchemy of rare, biodynamic botanicals, crafted to preserve the living lifeforce of their ingredients — so their vitality flows into your skin, revealing the innate glow so emblematic of French women. In every drop, Essènci embodies renewal, wellness, and care — a vision of beauty that is natural, enduring, and alive.
Our Founder’s Vision
This vision is inseparable from the spirit of our founder. As a mother, wife, entrepreneur, and CEO — and above all, as a liberated woman — Yetunde Beutler has always cared deeply for those around her. Unafraid to challenge convention, break taboos, and carve her own path, she continues to inspire women everywhere to do the same.
At the heart of Essènci is a devotion to health, renewal, and harmony — brought to life through botanicals and ritual. - Yetunde Beutler
For her, Essènci is more than skincare: it is a gesture of care that honors every individual, because each life and each story truly matters.
The Source of Living Lifeforce
Our founder’s pursuit has always been to seek out the purest botanicals and preserve the integrity of their living lifeforce — the vital energy that carries each plant’s natural benefits into our skincare. Guided by leading soil scientists in France, we cultivate plants in the most fertile terroirs, grown through organic and biodynamic farming with 0% synthetics, pesticides, or herbicides.
By supporting bee-friendly agriculture, we help safeguard pollinators essential to biodiversity — and to the vitality at the heart of our ingredients. Every supplier is chosen with great care, ensuring their agricultural and production practices meet our uncompromising standards. Many of our organic biodynamic oils are cold-pressed or macerated in small batches, a meticulous process that protects their potency and preserves their natural therapeutic qualities.
Each Essènci formula undergoes rigorous European testing and is certified organic by Ecocert/Cosmos, the highest global standard. This devotion to purity and craft ensures that our skincare is as authentic and transformative as the plants from which it is born.
The Art of Formulation
Essènci’s innovation is guided by a long-standing partnership with a French R&D laboratory at the forefront of natural ingredient science. For years, our founder has worked with their experts to refine aromatherapeutic formulations and create new ones, curating blends that are both deeply sensory and clinically effective.
Essènci is the sustainable choice for your skin, your health, and the environment. By harnessing the power of nature, we create science-backed organic formulations that carry a living lifeforce from seed to skin. We believe that what you put on your skin — the body’s largest organ — directly affects your overall wellbeing. That’s why we have developed a different kind of skincare: one that stands apart from conventional cosmetics by using only the highest-quality organic ingredients.
Our approach is rooted in systems thinking, where every ingredient is selected to serve a purpose and work synergistically with others. This unwavering commitment to purity ensures that our formulations remain completely free from synthetic chemicals and added perfumes, making them safe and gentle for even the most sensitive skin.
To guarantee this level of care, Essènci partners with an Ecocert-certified laboratory where products are blended, filled, and packaged under exceptional conditions. Led by PhD in pharmaceutical production, this atelier unites pharmaceutical-grade rigor with botanical artistry — ensuring formulas of unmatched integrity and effectiveness.
Trusted Dermatologists
Essènci is recommended in leading dermatology offices across the United States, where forward-thinking doctors embrace the power of nature and organic ingredients alongside science. Recognizing the efficacy and purity of our skincare, they prescribe Essènci for patients with very sensitive skin — both for daily rituals and to expedite healing after in-clinic treatments.

Craft Elevated to Art
Essènci believes skincare should be as beautiful on the outside as within. In partnership with Bernardaud, the historic French porcelain maison, we transform our porcelain jars into works of art — each vessel crafted with the same devotion to craftsmanship and heritage as our formulations.
Alongside Bernardaud, Essènci collaborates with artists such as Mikio Watanabe, whose engravings celebrate femininity, light, and beauty. Together, we create collections that honor the delicate balance of fragility and strength, ensuring that every Essènci creation is enveloped not only in science and nature, but also in art.
