NEWS With A&E’s stretched to breaking point, the new London Urgent Care Centre at Chase Lodge Hospital in Mill Hill is set to disrupt the UK healthcare landscape with an affordable, fast-track alternative. Founded by a team of highly experienced medics with extensive backgrounds in emergency medicine, the centre – the only one of its kind to treat both adults and children (over the age of 1 year) delivers rapid, walk-in care without appointments at just £99. Patients will be treated for a wide range of conditions, including minor injuries, respiratory issues, infections, and wound care, while also benefiting from immediate imaging, blood tests, diagnostics, routine health checks, and urgent prescriptions. The centre’s opening complements the services already available at Chase Lodge Hospital, including a newly launched Day Surgery Unit for consultant-led, private surgical procedures. With London’s A&E departments stretched to breaking point, urgent care services have never been more needed. Overcrowding, staffing shortages, and record patient numbers mean that only a fraction of patients are seen within the four-hour Gold-Standard Emergency Care Arrives in North London target, and many face waits exceeding 12 hours. Hospitals are increasingly resorting to ‘corridor care’, where patients are treated in hallways due to lack of beds, while staff face extraordinary pressures, high nurse vacancy rates, and rising incidents of violence. These challenges underscore the urgent need for innovative, high-quality, and affordable urgent care solutions. The London Urgent Care Centre meets this need by offering immediate walk-in assessment, with patients triaged within 20 minutes by senior emergency medicine doctors. On-site diagnostics, including blood tests, MRI, X-Ray, and ultrasound imaging, deliver results within the hour. More serious cases are referred as needed, while those requiring specialist care can access in-house consultants and operating theatres for day patient procedures. Continuity of care is ensured through close collaboration with GPs and consultants at Chase Lodge Hospital, providing patients with a clear clinical pathway. In contrast to the hectic atmosphere of traditional A&Es, the London Urgent Care Centre offers a welcoming, patient-focused environment, from inviting reception and waiting areas to state-of-the-art treatment rooms and a tranquil garden designed to create a calmer, less stressful experience. Dr Andre van Nierop, Co-Founder of London Urgent Care Centre, explained: “With NHS emergency departments, particularly in London, under immense pressure and patients facing long waits, the need for private, affordable urgent care in the UK has never been greater. At just £99 per consultation, we deliver rapid, expert care in a calm, patient-focused environment, without the delays and stress of traditional A&E. “As a pioneering initiative, London Urgent Care is built on a flexible model that could, in time, be adapted to meet the needs of communities nationwide. Our immediate priority remains providing exceptional local care, but we recognise the wider potential for this approach to reshape urgent care delivery across the UK.” The centre also provides a 24/7 emergency dental service, on-the-spot prescriptions, health checks such as blood pressure, cholesterol, and diabetes screening, sports and school physicals, wound care including stitch removal and burns treatment, infection management, and same-day diagnostics and referrals.
• Six in 10 workers rate their employer’s health benefits as only ‘average’ or ‘poor’ • 77% of employers feel they’ve consulted staff on preventative health benefits – but just 18% of employees agree • Employers offering preventative health benefits report a 94% uplift in employee satisfaction levels Affordable healthcare provider, Benenden Health, has released its Preventative Health in the Workplace Report, revealing a stark perception gap between what businesses believe they’re offering in terms of preventative health support and what employees actually experience. The Report reveals clear, simple actions managers can take to bridge this gap and help their employees proactively engage with their health. The survey of 500 UK business decision-makers and 2,000 employees, finds that while 86% of employers believe their workforce is engaged with their preventative health benefits, fewer than one in five (18%) employees recall ever being consulted about them. This disconnect extends into quality and delivery: just 36% of employees describe their workplace health provision as ‘good’, while 60% rate it only as ‘average’ or ‘poor’. In the workplace, preventative health means supporting employees to take proactive steps to protect and enhance their health and wellbeing, before issues arise – from encouraging timely medical advice, to offering wellbeing resources – and support healthy habits during the working week. Demand of preventative health benefits outstrips supply The report highlights a mismatch between what employees want and what employers provide: • 84% of employees would find condition-specific health screening the most beneficial perk • 74% want better guidance to spot early signs of poor mental health • 73% would value access to health coaches Yet, the most common benefit currently offered remains a discounted gym membership, and 44% of employees reporting that no preventative health benefits are available to them at all. Employers face barriers but benefits are clear Employers cite costs (55%), competing priorities (33%) and doubts about impact (21%) as the main challenges in introducing preventative health measures for staff. However, the evidence is compelling: 94% of employers who already provide preventative health benefits say they have been a positive impact on employee satisfaction. Mike Hay, Chief People Officer at Benenden Health, comments: “Our research shows that while businesses increasingly recognise the importance of supporting employee preventative health, many employees still aren’t seeing or feeling the benefits. The encouraging news is that demand is high. When employers provide meaningful support, they can empower staff to adopt healthier habits, resulting in significant gains in satisfaction, engagement and wellbeing. Despite competing priorities, healthier employees are better for business, contributing to increased productivity and reduced absence. We want to help organisations overcome barriers to introducing these benefits and bridge the perception gap so that preventative health becomes a core part of workplace culture, not an afterthought.” The full Preventative Health in the Workplace Report, including practical guidance for HR and business leaders, is available to download here: Preventative health in the workplace Workplace Preventative Health: 60% Rate Benefits Average or Poor
GHP Q4 2025 - Feature When we think about mental health at work, our minds often turn to stress, anxiety, or depression. Yet for many people, trauma sits quietly beneath the surface, shaping how they think, feel and function long after the event itself. Trauma can emerge from experiences both inside and outside the workplace, for example a traumatic bereavement, an accident, witnessing something distressing, or being exposed to direct violence or threat. Sometimes, the workplace itself can be the setting for a traumatic event. As clinicians and workplace wellbeing specialists, we see the difference a trauma-informed approach can make, when this is implemented by an organisation. For employees, it can support their recovery journey and supports a greater sense of safety. In organisations, it builds trust, resilience, and retention. We wanted to share what trauma really means, how it shows up at work, and what employers can do to help people heal. The key signs and symptoms At its core, trauma is the mind and body’s response to an event that overwhelms our ability to cope. It’s not only the event itself that matters, but how the individual experiences it. Two people can go through the same situation and have very different responses. One may recover quickly, while another may develop symptoms of depression or anxiety, or even PTSD. Trauma impacts the mind and body, and unprocessed trauma memories can maintain an ongoing sense of threat. When we go through a traumatic experience, particularly if it was a threat-based trauma, this can leave someone feeling more on edge, experiencing increased hyperarousal. This can result in experiencing increased heart rate, disturbed sleep, and impact concentration when we are reminded of the trauma. People may seem distracted, irritable, or withdrawn. To others, it can look like they’re coping, but internally they’re fighting to feel safe again. An employee who’s suddenly avoiding certain colleagues or areas of the workplace may be unconsciously steering away from reminders of a traumatic event. Another might overwork, believing that keeping busy will hold intrusive memories at bay. These behaviours are protective, but they also keep the traumatic experience unprocessed due to avoidance and distraction. A real-life workplace scenario One example we often use in training is based on a real-life scenario. Imagine a colleague, Rachel, who collapses at work and tragically does not survive. Two employees, Sally and John, perform CPR. Both are deeply affected but respond differently. Understanding Trauma in the Workplace and How Employers Can Make a Real Difference By Dr Glenn Mason, Head of Adult Psychological Therapies & Consultant Counselling Psychologist, and Sarah Carter, Head of Account Management at Onebright After the event Sally experiences flashbacks, vivid replays of the event, and later blames herself for not doing more. John, on the other hand, feels sadness and shock but seems able to return to routine more quickly. Neither reaction is wrong. Trauma responses are shaped by many factors including personality, previous experiences, support systems, and the meaning attached to the event. Employers and managers can support people on their recovery journey, by responding with compassion and curiosity, asking “how can I support you” rather than “what happened”, it can make all the difference. From an organisational perspective, trauma-informed leadership is about recognising that we cannot always see what people are carrying. It’s about creating a culture where individuals feel psychologically safe to say “I’m struggling” without fear of being judged or penalised. Similarly to outside the office, trauma in the workplace can present in many forms, for example: • Changes in attendance, concentration, or mood • Difficulties trusting others • An increased sensitivity to stress When managers understand that these behaviours may stem from a trauma response rather than disengagement or poor performance, they can respond far more effectively. Trauma-informed leadership doesn’t require clinical training. It’s about empathy, flexibility, and communication, and simple adjustments can have a profound impact. Offering flexible working hours, creating quiet spaces, or temporarily adjusting responsibilities can help an employee regain a sense of control, which is essential to recovery. Managers don’t need to be therapists, but they do have to listen What’s equally important is avoiding over-inquiry. Managers often want to understand what happened, but asking someone to relive the details of a traumatic experience can be counter-productive. Instead of gathering information, the goal is to ensure support. An effective question you can ask is, “What do you need right now to feel safe and supported at work?” Providing access to appropriate professional help through Employee Assistance Programmes, counselling, or trauma-focused therapy should be part of every wellbeing strategy. Early intervention matters, and the longer trauma responses go unrecognised, the more they can become entrenched, leading to longer absences, burnout, or secondary mental health difficulties...
GHP Q4 2025- Feature Why Employee Wellbeing Is Now a Business Imperative According to our latest report Workplace Wellbeing: A Business Imperative, 44% of employees say poor wellbeing significantly impacts their productivity. This suggests that for nearly half of all employees, stress, burnout and mental health challenges are not just minor setbacks; they significantly hinder employees’ ability to focus, engage, and complete work effectively. Employers have a responsibility to help individuals manage both their physical and mental wellbeing. But it’s clear businesses need to work harder to provide targeted employee support. To thrive in the current landscape, HR must continue to be a strategic, empathetic and data-driven function. The good news is that changes in the corporate world are trying to make this possible. With this in mind, I suggest five workplace wellbeing trends we can expect to see grow in 2026. Five Employee Wellbeing Trends to Watch in 2026 1. Shifting Organisational Values for a Millennial and Gen Z Workforce With Millennials and Gen Z now making up 62% of the workforce, organisations will continue evolving their offerings to support the modern workplace. In the past, we may have seen resistance to such demands from businesses, but now, more than ever, employers are working to remain open to employee suggestions and adapt work models accordingly. This trend shows workplaces now value overall employee satisfaction, not just pay. Companies will continue to focus on improving work-life balance, wellness, intellectual challenge and personal growth and development – all of which are cited as key drivers for Millennial and Gen Z engagement. 2. Wellbeing Audits and Data-Driven Insights With only 26% of employees feeling comfortable discussing mental health at work, more organisations will introduce formal wellbeing audits to identify gaps, risks and opportunities. A thorough audit provides the data needed to build a responsive, relevant and cost-effective wellbeing strategy that truly serves the workforce’s needs. So, as an example, companies will pay more attention to which of their benefits are being used and which are not. There will also be a greater focus on gathering qualitative feedback through focus groups and anonymous surveys to understand why certain benefits are valued more than others. We are seeing more businesses ask us for advice on identifying what is currently missing from their organisation’s current wellbeing toolkits too. Elements often missing are a lack of mental health support, The Next Era of Employee Wellbeing: Five Trends Workplaces Can’t Ignore in 2026 By Chris Britton, People Experience Director at Reward Gateway | Edenred insufficient financial literacy resources or a need for greater flexibility in work schedules. 3. Building Psychological Safety at Work Reward Gateway | Edenred’s HR Priority Research Report reveals that only under half of employees were not afraid to take risks or make mistakes. The report also found a discrepancy in the perceived psychological safety at work. 51 per cent of HR professionals believe employees feel safe confiding in them, but only 42 per cent of employees do. Such findings reflect a widespread concern among UK businesses, and we are seeing more companies sit up and listen, when there are rumblings of a toxic workplace environment. Key actions from HR teams in 2026 will include setting clear behavioural expectations, normalising failure as a learning opportunity, and driving more inclusive feedback processes so all employees feel heard, respected and safe to take risks. 4. Supporting Employees in the Wellbeing ‘Grey Zone’ Our report shows 18% of employees are unsure about their wellbeing at work – a quietly vulnerable group. These employees are not in crisis but lack an overly positive view on wellbeing. This middle group are statistically significant as, they represent nearly one in five employees feel neutral. For most organisations, that’s a sizable segment whose well-being and productivity could swing either way. In 2026, organisations will increasingly focus on this “wellbeing grey zone” by identifying early risk indicators, increasing pulse surveys, sentiment tracking and offering more personalised wellbeing nudges. Expect more early-intervention tools and wellbeing monitoring, as employers take a sharper focus on tackling productivity loss caused by poor wellbeing. 5. Helping Employees Build Financial Resilience In November, HM Treasury published its Financial Inclusion Strategy, a national framework to improve access to financial services for underserved groups. This is a pivotal moment for employers to reassess how workplace financial wellbeing can boost performance and resilience in 2026. The Employer’s Role in the Next Era of Wellbeing As a result of the study, we believe businesses will adapt their financial wellbeing offerings. Many are starting to recognise that financial wellbeing involves not only income but also resilience, literacy and access – areas where employers can have a real impact. We expect to see businesses offering more auto-enrolment or payroll savings options and earned wage access (EWA) products, which reduce reliance on high-cost credit and are designed with inclusivity in mind. Employee benefits will expand beyond sick pay, to include initiatives such as income protection, as companies recognise their impact on individual and national outcomes.

9 GHP Q4 2025 ased in New York, Exoceuticals is a leading innovator in exosome-based beauty, dedicated to creating advanced functional skin and personal care products that not only work but also deliver dramatic results. Since the brands establishment in 2016, the company has been guided by three key pillars: leveraging data-driven science, prioritizing personal interactions with clients, and gaining a deeper understanding of the customer experience. Exoceuticals offers a complete collection of skincare products, crafted with exosomes to deliver anti-ageing properties that protect and enrich the skin. Exosomes transmit information between skin cells to activate the body’s curative abilities, promoting the regeneration of skin cells and enlisting them to heal damaged skin and reduce signs of aging. When applied topically, exosomes encounter skin cells, fuse their outer membranes, and deliver their cargo – proteins, growth factors, and nucleic acid – to the recipient cell. Dr Robin L. Smith, Jody Gurney, managing partners at Exoceuticals, are leading experts in exosome research and regenerative medicine and Exoceuticals is the only company to use its own patented technology to produce proprietary exosomes across its entire collection. The company has invested heavily in its Exosome Technology Platform – including the time-consuming patent application process – and it team members have dedicated themselves to studying the molecular mechanisms related to stem cells for more than 30 years, as well as the novel signaling aspects of stem cell derived exosomes. As a result, Exoceuticals has created cutting-edge methods for engineering and manufacturing pure exosome isolates and has now engineered its own specially tuned exosomes – aloe³ Exosomes™ and eXo³ Exosomes® – the later are extracellular vesicles from subcutaneous tissue designed to restore and improve the body’s ability to repair and regenerate. The enhanced proteins, growth factors, and nucleic acid send signals to neighboring skin cells to assist and influence the stimulation of fibroblast proliferation and the production of collagen, elastin, and TGF B-1. Both Exoceuticals’ proprietary eXo³ Exosomes® and aloe³ Exosomes are pure exosome isolates, confirmed through qualitative and quantitative analysis. They possess a lipid bilayer that protects and holds signaling miRNA cargo until it is delivered directly to the target cell. This is a highly effective mechanism of action that ensures cells and skin receive all the important benefits exosomes can support, from repair and regeneration to soothing and hydration, delivered through exceptional targeted skincare solutions that are formulated to be easy to use and ultra-effective. These breakthrough formulations have proven to be incredibly Exosomes act as natural messengers between cells throughout the body, crucial for coordinating biological functions and stimulating the body’s production of collagen, elastin, hyaluronic acid, and other essential elements of healthy and youthful skin.

From anti-ageing products, moisturizers, and lotions to serums, lip balms, and after-sun treatments, Exoceuticals is taking the beauty and wellness world by storm. What’s more, the company has also developed the EXO HAIR™ Regimen – comprising EXO FORTIFY™, a revitalizing hair and scalp treatment, and EXO ACTIVATE™, a follicle enrichment serum – with the aim of addressing the most common root causes of hair thinning, hair loss and hair breakage.

10 GHP Q4 2025 Transformative aesthetic care demands precision, integrity, and a deep understanding of patient wellbeing. Pure Perfection Clinic is a Welsh aesthetics clinic delivering evidence-based treatments deeply rooted in safety, education, and personalised care. Setting new benchmarks across the region in excellence and expertise, the clinic has been rightfully recognised in the Global Excellence Awards 2025. We spoke to Sara Cheeney below, Founder of Pure Perfection Clinic, for more. Nestled in the heart of Rossett, North Wales, Pure Perfection Clinic is a leading aesthetic centre known for its safe, holistic, and personalised approach to care. With four treatment rooms and a patient base of approximately 10,000 across North Wales and the Northwest, the clinic’s ethos centres on holistic wellness – using research and evidence-based practices to guide every service offered, ensuring that results are always delivered in the patient’s best interest. Pure Perfection Clinic was founded in 2008 by Sara Cheeney, a qualified Aesthetic Nurse Practitioner whose expertise has taken the clinic from strength to strength since its inception. Sara suffered from psoriasis as a teenager in the 1990s, and her confidence was greatly impacted as a result. Fortunately, she was referred to a cosmetic clinic in Liverpool by her GP, where she was amazed by the treatments on offer there. This moment sparked Sara’s fascination with the cosmetics and skin industries, truly shaping the course of her professional career. She loved the idea that treatment could go beyond physical health, addressing psychological wellbeing and truly empowering patients by boosting their confidence. From here, the journey began; Sara has now completed years of training, not only as an Independent Nurse Prescriber but also as an Advanced Skin Therapist and Qualified Teacher, driven by her passion to elevate industry standards and become the very best she could be. This commitment shines through the treatments delivered by Pure Perfection Clinic, where every patient is made to feel one of a kind. The clinic is renowned for its specialist expertise in skin health – particularly acne and rosacea – and provides an unrivalled range of bespoke solutions that cater to every skin type and budget. Pure Perfection Clinic specialises in advanced full-face rejuvenation using botulinum toxin and dermal filler injections, offering treatments for all ageing and beautification concerns. It uses PEG technology filler, which avoids harsh BDDE chemicals and ensures minimal downtime with no adverse reactions. What’s more, Pure Perfection Clinic stands out as the only clinic in North Wales to treat acne and rosacea with a CO₂ laser service, pushing boundaries and raising standards for the region. It combines skin health with injectables to treat concerns holistically, delivering natural results that are supported by its team’s annual mandatory training and an unlimited training budget designed to fill skill gaps and maintain excellence. Sara’s belief in better education and training does not stop at her clinic doors. She believes the aesthetics industry needs clearer pathways and more robust training to eliminate confusion between roles such as skin therapists and injectable practitioners. By championing better regulation and professional standards, she aims to improve the industry’s regulations to ensure that treatments are always delivered safely and by the right people. To this end, Sara also runs Clinic Success, a business consultancy service in which she offers one-to-one mentorships for new clinicians to enhance safe and ethical practice across the specialty. She is well known across the industry, having spoken at industry events, delivering clinical training, and mentoring for over a decade – both in the UK and internationally. Clinic owners often visit Pure Perfection Clinic to shadow Sara at work, as well as staying at Evelyn’s Retreat, Sara’s Corwen-based wellness retreat. Looking ahead, Sara’s mission to raise standards within the aesthetics industry continues to gather momentum. She regularly shares her insights on platforms such as BBC Radio Cymru and GMB News and has spoken directly with MPs and local councils to advocate for safer, more regulated practice. Her commitment to education remains unwavering, with plans to expand her clinical training programmes and launch a skincare brand that reflects Pure Perfection Clinic’s values of safety, efficacy, and integrity. Sara’s combination techniques and meticulous attention to detail continue to set her apart, earning Pure Perfection Clinic recognition as Cheshire and North Wales’s Best Medical Skincare Clinic 2025. The next chapter for Pure Perfection Clinic includes the renovation of a dedicated training space – a hub for clinical education, business coaching, and patient-led learning. This safe and welcoming environment will empower both practitioners and patients alike to make informed, confident choices in their care. With innovation at its core, the clinic remains firmly focused on shaping a brighter, safer future for the wider aesthetics community.

Celesty hasn’t seen this shift as a challenge, but rather an advantage. “From the start, our philosophy has been to merge high-performance skincare with luxury make-up, so we were already ahead of the curve when this trend accelerated,” Jordan tells us. “Instead of pivoting, we’ve been able to lean into our strengths, showcasing how our products, like our Cell Regen Growth Factor Serum and skincareinfused make-up, are designed with both beauty and health in mind.” However, there has been the hurdle of educating customers on what makes “skincare-infused” different from marketing buzzwords. “We have addressed this by being radically transparent about our formulations, highlighting clinical ingredients, and positioning ourselves as a brand that values both performance and integrity,” Jordan explains. “The result has been a clear advantage: Celesty is seen not just as keeping up with the industry – but as a brand that is defining where beauty is headed next – where science becomes romance.” As such, since its inception, Celesty’s work has been guided by three core values: ‘Science with Integrity’, where every formula is deeprooted in proven, EU-compliant skincare innovation; ‘Empowerment Through Beauty’, empowering everyday women and men to discover their own voice in the beauty industry, share products they believe in, and even build their own businesses; and ‘Luxury Made Accessible’, because award-winning quality should come with an unaffordable price tag. By living and breathing each of these values, Celesty isn’t your average beauty brand; it’s a movement, bridging the gap between high-performance skincare and luxury cosmetics. “Celesty is more than a beauty brand – it’s a movement. Our vision has always been to create products where science meets romance, delivering award-winning formulas that elevate confidence while making luxury accessible.” “We pride ourselves on three things above all,” Jordan states. “The results speak for themselves: every product is EU-compliant and powered by science – peptides, antioxidants, growth factors, et cetera, delivering visible lasting results; it’s luxury without compromise: award-winning formulations at a price point that makes indulgence accessible – We refuse to force a choice between quality and affordability; and it’s a movement, not just a brand: through our ambassador model, we empower people to build businesses, share their love of beauty, and create lasting impact, making Celesty as much about community as it is about cosmetics. In short, we don’t just sell products; we deliver confidence, opportunity, and results that transform.” And with a glowing five-star rating across 991 reviews on Celesty’s website, its customers couldn’t be happier. In particular, they are loving its Cell Regen Growth Factor Serum and the visible improvements it presents in terms of skin firmness, texture, and radiance. Unlike traditional serums that temporarily hydrate or smooth, the serum helps to reset the skin’s natural renewal process, making it a true “investment serum” that delivers long-term transformation, not just a quick fix. Here’s what customers have had to say: “This is the only serum I’ve ever used that make people ask me if I’d had a professional treatment. My skin feels firmer and looks years younger.” “After just a few weeks, my fine lines softened, and the glow was undeniable. Cell Regen is my holy grail.” “I’ve tried countless luxury serums, but nothing compares to the results I’ve seen with Cell Regen. It’s worth every drop.” “Celesty is setting a new standard in beauty: skincare-infused make-up and transformative skincare that work as hard as they feel indulgent.” Ultimately, Celesty has become a true force to be reckoned with within the beauty industry, having taken what could have been considered a challenge and pivoted to make it an advantage. It’s not just building a brand, but a movement – a place for people to connect, grow, and glow. It is built on transparency, excellence, collaboration, and a passion for providing its customers with only the very best. The company’s vision for the next five years is to continue disrupting the industry, merging science and romance in ways that it hasn’t seen before. It is committed to leading the category of skincareinfused make-up, pushing the boundaries beyond surface-level Skincare Where Science Meets Romance
GHP Q4 2025 beauty to create products that actively improve skin health while delivering luxury performance. Jordan shares that Celesty’s ongoing innovation is focused on three key areas, these being next-generation formulations powered by growth factors, peptides, and biotechnology to deliver visible, clinical-grade results at home; sustainable luxury, where packaging and sourcing reflect the highest environmental standards without compromising elegance; and technology-driven personalisation, including AI-powered skin analysis and product matching tools that make skincare and beauty more intuitive for every consumer. In terms of growth, the company has its sights set on becoming a global leader in skincare-infused cosmetics, expanding its presence across North America, Europe, and the Middle East, while cultivating a strong community of brand ambassadors who see Celesty not just as a brand but as an opportunity for empowerment. Overall, its disruption comes from staying ahead of trends, staying true to science, and never compromising on accessibility or luxury. “We are very excited about what’s ahead for Celesty,” Jordan tells us, going on to reveal a little more of what is yet to come. “In the coming year, we are planning to expand our make-up range, introducing new products that carry the same skincareinfused philosophy that has set us apart. At the same time, we’ll be popping in with innovative new skincare launches that continue to deliver science-backed results while feeling luxurious and approachable.” She concludes, “Each new launch is carefully designed to strengthen our mission of merging high-performance skincare with beauty, ensuring that our community always has something fresh, relevant, and transformative to look forward to.” Contact Details Company name: Celesty Contact name: Jordan Sapan Email: [email protected] Website: www.celesty.com

15 GHP Q4 2025 Graydon Moffat has a pretty unique approach to skincare. This is due to her being a former vegan chef, who formulated her very first skincare creations in her own kitchen! Always being hyper-aware of the spectacular benefits of certain superfoods when eaten, Graydon felt it time to harness those benefits in skincare, too. Her own journey with hormonal changes and skin sensitivities drove her to create her own products that nourish and protect the skin without irritation. Having spent many years as a yoga instructor, she found that she wasn’t alone, with many of her clients experiencing the same challenges. “The combination of superfood-inspired formulas and unwavering dedication to creating products for sensitive skin has made Graydon Skincare stand out among others in the industry,” says Graydon. “While we’re here for everyone, we’re proudly-age-positive – from the ingredients we choose to the language we use; you won’t hear terms like ‘anti-ageing’ from us!” Most recent of the company’s product launches has been Moon Boost, released earlier this year, and Hydratone, which is launching in the new year. Moon Boost is a gentle brightening serum containing vitamins A, C, D, E, and K. Graydon explains, “We use a more stable, less irritating vitamin C called THD and an exciting biotech active ingredient, torula oil – a sustainable palm oil alternative that keeps skin plump and protected.” On top of that, Moon Boost harnesses superfoods like raspberry, shiitake, and carrot. Here is what a delighted customer, Sylvia B, has to say about her experience using Moon Boost: “It is like a miracle. Feels very good when applying and my skin is softer and brighter looking. I am not a young woman and I look it, and this product makes me feel great.” Meanwhile, Hydratone will be a gentle daily exfoliating, toning, and hydrating offering, Graydon Moffat founded Graydon Skincare in 2016 with the mission to create gentle and effective plant and biotech powered skincare products that work. Like Graydon herself, many of the company’s customers are women who have lived incredible lives so far, and Graydon Skincare seeks to help them age better, in a way that supports both their confidence and their skin’s health and longevity. Each product is vegan, cruelty-free, and formulated for sensitive skin, while also providing a delightful sensory experience – Who says gentle skincare has to be boring? As we bestow Graydon Skincare with the title of Best Age-Positive Skincare Company 2025 – Canada, we sit down for a lovely chat with Graydon herself. Meet Graydon, the Vegan Skincare Champion giving a visibly brighter, smoother complexion, thanks to star ingredients, gluconolactone (PHA), mandelic acid (AHA), fulvic acid, and maple sap water. Graydon comments, “We don’t have anything quite like it in our product line yet, so we’re thrilled to be offering some diversity to our customers’ routines!” “We are proud of our focus on age positivity. Part of that, in our opinion, is creating accessible skincare education that tackles topics like wrinkles, crepey skin, “firming” skincare, and more, with clarity and transparency so that people truly understand the relationship between skin and ageing.” Graydon adds, “We’re also in the process of elevating our current formulas. We’re keeping the good stuff like many of our sensitive, skin-friendly superfood ingredients, and enhancing other aspects of our formulas, including better aromas, colours, and textures, for many products! We’re planning on rolling this out in 2026.” The company is also proud to offer an online resource called Mindful Beauty Magazine, where it posts educational yet fun articles about skincare, which Graydon describes as a labour of love. Now, as the business approaches its tenth anniversary and Graydon herself just turned 60, there is a certain aura of excitement toward celebrating a founder who proudly owns her age, her skin, and her confidence. Thus, we are keen to find out what’s next for the brand. Graydon reveals, “We want to continue to find avenues of innovation that align with our values and serve our clients who have come to expect an age-positive, gentle, and education-based approach to their skin health from us. For us, that looks like boldly and passionately continuing to shift the way people talk about skin ageing. It also looks like bringing new products to market that fill the need many people have for vegan, gentle, intentionally formulated skincare that targets skin ageing without the shaming language attached.” She concludes, “A big goal for us is growth. We’d love to find ourselves in more retailers globally in the next five years, and we’re putting in the work now to make that a reality. We’re proudly Canadian, but we want to see Graydon Skincare on gorgeous faces around the world.” Company name: Graydon Skincare Contact name: Graydon Moffat Email: [email protected] Website: www.graydonskincare.com
