Okay, can we just take a moment? Because this is big.
We’ve officially added ESK Evidence Skincare (aka Evidence Skincare) to our shelves at Allure Beauty & Skin Clinic in Mt Martha and online at Allure Skin Hub—and it’s the most “us” thing ever. If you’ve been searching for a skin clinic near me or a beauty salon near me on the Mornington Peninsula because you want real, visible change (not pretty packaging and empty promises), you’re in the right place.
ESK is different. And I mean really different.
This is science-backed skincare built on peer-reviewed evidence, formulated by an Australian GP who knows her stuff, and made right here in Australia. No fluff. No filler. Just potent, evidence-based formulas designed for anti-aging results, brighter tone, smoother texture, and stronger skin over time.
So let’s break down why we’re so excited to bring ESK to Mt Martha (and our Peninsula clients), and why your skin is about to thank you.
Meet the Brain Behind the Brand: Dr. Ginni Mansberg (ESK Evidence Skincare)
First things first: ESK was founded by Dr. Ginni Mansberg, an Australian GP, author, and TV personality who got fed up with the skincare industry's smoke and mirrors. She wanted products that were actually backed by rigorous, published research, not just "clinically tested" in some vague, undisclosed way.
Dr. Ginni took it upon herself to create a line where every single ingredient is there for a reason, at a concentration that's been proven to work in peer-reviewed medical journals. Not preliminary studies. Not "promising results." The real deal.
And honestly? That's the kind of no-BS approach we live for at Allure.

The Evidence Skincare Difference: Science-Backed Skincare That Delivers Anti-Aging Results
Here's the thing: the beauty industry loves to throw around words like "clinically proven" and "dermatologist tested." But what does that actually mean? Usually… not much.
ESK flips the script. Every product is formulated using ingredients that have been validated in major medical journals. We're talking about the kind of research that gets published in The Journal of Dermatology or Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, not a brand's internal "study" of 12 people.
The formulations are manufactured in TGA-approved facilities (that's Australia's Therapeutic Goods Administration, for those playing at home), with quality control measures that include:
- Raw material purity testing
- Microbial contamination screening
- pH verification
- Independent stability testing
This is pharmaceutical-grade skincare. The kind of stuff that doesn't mess around.
The Ingredients That Actually Work
Let's talk actives, because this is where ESK really shines.
Vitamin C (10% concentration)
You've heard of Vitamin C, right? It's the antioxidant superstar that brightens, protects, and fights free radical damage. But here's the kicker: most Vitamin C serums on the market use concentrations that are either too low to be effective or so high they irritate your skin.
ESK uses 10% Vitamin C, the sweet spot that's been shown in studies to improve hyperpigmentation by 25% in just 12 weeks. That's not a "maybe." That's measurable, visible change.
Retinoids (0.1% concentration)
If Vitamin C is the superstar, Retinoids are the MVP. They stimulate collagen production, speed up cell turnover, and basically turn back the clock on fine lines and texture.
ESK formulates with 0.1% Retinoids, which clinical research shows can enhance cell turnover by 40% in 8 weeks. And because it's formulated smartly, you get the results without the peeling, flaking disaster some retinol products can cause.
Niacinamide (5% concentration)
Niacinamide is the multitasker your skin didn't know it needed. It regulates oil production, minimizes pores, strengthens your skin barrier, and calms inflammation.
At 5% concentration, ESK's Niacinamide formulations have been shown to reduce oil production by 30% in just 4 weeks. Perfect for anyone dealing with congestion or that midday shine that shows up uninvited.

What ESK Doesn't Have (And Why That Matters)
Here's what you won't find in ESK products:
- Perfumes or fragrances (which can irritate sensitive skin)
- Dyes or artificial colorants
- Parabens
- Unnecessary fillers
Every ingredient has a job to do. If it's not pulling its weight with proven results, it's not in the bottle. Simple as that.
This is especially important for our clients with sensitive skin or conditions like rosacea, where every ingredient matters. You're not gambling with your skin, you're giving it exactly what it needs, nothing it doesn't.
Why ESK Evidence Skincare Fits at Allure Beauty & Skin Clinic (Mt Martha / Mornington Peninsula)
Look, we could stock just about any skincare line if we wanted to. But we don't. We're choosy, because you deserve better than mediocre.
ESK aligns with everything we stand for:
✨ Long-term, visible results over quick fixes
✨ Professional-grade formulations that respect your skin's biology
✨ Transparency about what's in the bottle and why
✨ Australian-made and cruelty-free (because ethics matter)
✨ Simple routines that actually work (no 12-step nonsense)
We've always been about education and empowerment, helping you understand your skin so you can make informed choices. ESK fits that philosophy like a glove.
Plus, Dr. Ginni's commitment to updating formulations as new research emerges? That's the kind of integrity we can get behind.

Who Is ESK Evidence Skincare For?
Honestly? ESK is for anyone who's tired of products that overpromise and underdeliver.
But it's especially perfect for:
- Women in their 40s, 50s, and beyond who want to address fine lines, pigmentation, and loss of firmness with ingredients that have real science behind them
- Anyone dealing with hyperpigmentation or sun damage (hello, Mornington Peninsula lifestyle!)
- Sensitive skin types who need effective actives without the irritation
- No-nonsense skincare lovers who'd rather spend their money on results than pretty Instagram packaging
If you're in Mt Martha, Mornington, or anywhere on the Mornington Peninsula and you’ve been typing “skin clinic near me” or “beauty salon near me” into Google hoping to find a cosy, personalised clinic that still delivers anti-aging results—this is it.
And if you want to take your results further, we can pair your home routine with in-clinic treatments like microneedling, an LED light therapy facial, and targeted skin peels to support smoother texture, brighter tone, and stronger-looking skin.
Simple Routines, Real Results (Plus Microneedling, LED Light Therapy Facials & Skin Peels)
One of the things we love most about ESK is that it doesn't overcomplicate things. You don't need 47 products to see results. You need the right products, used consistently.
A basic ESK routine might look like:
Morning:
- Gentle cleanser
- Vitamin C serum
- Moisturizer
- SPF (non-negotiable!)
Evening:
- Cleanser
- Retinoid serum
- Niacinamide treatment (if needed)
- Rich moisturizer
That's it. No complicated layering charts. No guesswork. Just clean, effective skincare that fits into your real life.
What Our Clients Are Saying
We've already had some of our regular clients try ESK ahead of this official launch, and the feedback has been incredible.
One client told us she noticed a difference in her pigmentation within three weeks. Another said her skin felt "calmer and more balanced" than it had in years. And multiple people have commented on how smooth and refined their texture has become.
These aren't miracle stories: they're what happens when you use ingredients that are scientifically proven to work, at concentrations that actually make a difference.
