Today on the Formula, we’re rummaging through the skincare cupboard of model, actor and businesswoman, Ellie Gonsalves.

She’s fronted magazines and worked with brands like L’Oréal, FENTY Beauty, Gucci, and a You Beauty favourite - Ole Henriksen.

Ellie has a holistic approach to beauty and is no stranger to a "self-care Thursday." She's also not a product snob. She loves cost-effective products that actually work and help her look and feel her best. Today, we explore her gentle, hydrating routine and uncover why wellness is Ellie’s ultimate beauty secret.
