Ellie Bianca

Ellie Bianca is a skincare brand founded by Dr. Evelyne Nyairo, a Kenyan-born biochemist and environmental scientist based in Calgary, Alberta. The line is built around shea butter and certified organic botanicals and covers face oils, serums, toners, cleansers, lip balms, body lotions, hand creams and bath salts, with formulas featuring hyaluronic acid, niacinamide and plant oils.

The brand philosophy is summed up as Kind to Your Skin, Kind to the Earth, Kind to Women, and that shows up in how it operates: ingredients are sourced through women-led cooperatives in Africa, and packaging is recyclable and biodegradable. Nyairo pitched the business on CBC's Dragons' Den. Ellie Bianca is Canadian-made and Canadian-headquartered, selling primarily direct online with Canadian retail stockists, and it ships to the United States.

The Calgary address and phone number appear in Canadian business directories rather than on the brand's own contact page, so treat the location as an office rather than a shop to visit.
