Emma Lewisham relaunches iconic product
Emma Lewisham has announced it has relaunched its world-first, patented Supernatural Blemish Serum with Live Skin Probiotic – supercharged with even more efficacy than the brand’s first iteration.
Following the successful launch of the serum in October 2023, the Supernatural Blemish Serum received overwhelmingly positive results, establishing itself as the patented discovery that has changed lives.
So why reformulate?
"Our core ethos at Emma Lewisham is continuous improvement and staying close to our community," the brand shared.
"We’ve listened to customer feedback and original formula, and have spent the past 12 months working hard to address these points to improve the Supernatural Blemish Serum."
The new and enhanced formulation now delivers over 350 million live probiotic cells per pump, a 48% increase from the previous 235 million, helping to supercharge results in diminishing the appearance of blemishes.
While further developing and improving the formulation, Emma Lewisham took the opportunity to refine the product’s vessel, doubling its size from 30mL to 60mL, all whilst still honouring its original price.
As part of the brand’s commitment to circular beauty and in line with all Emma Lewisham products, the Supernatural Blemish Serum is also available in a refillable pod helping to reduce up to 74% of carbon emissions with a refill purchase.
And finally, the brand has changed the probiotic pod from opaque to transparent to allow users to see exactly how much probiotic remains, helping them to settle the probiotic at the bottom of the pod for easier application.
Emma Lewisham Supernatural Blemish Serum is available now via MECCA in Australia, and retails for $135 / 60mL. You can shop here.
