Sometimes I sit back and wonder how a little idea in my heart grew into all of this. 🤍 Not because of an award. Not because of recognition. But because so many wonderful people chose to believe in it. Today, I’m celebrating another milestone for EssencesByNadya: 🏆 Skincare Brand of the Year 2026 And whilst this is incredibly special, what means even more to me is what sits behind it. The customers who came back. The messages telling me how much you love your products. The photos you’ve shared. The recommendations you’ve made to friends and family. The trust you’ve placed in a small independent brand. Every award has a name on it, but behind every award are people. People who support. People who encourage. People who cheer you on even when they don’t realise how much it means. This award may have been given to EssencesByNadya, but it truly belongs to every single person who has been part of this journey. From my very first customer to my newest one. From those who have followed me for years to those who discovered my brand yesterday. Thank you. 🤍 Seven awards later, I still get excited packing orders. I still smile when I see your reviews. I still feel grateful every single day that something created with so much love has found its way into so many homes. Thank you for helping me turn a dream into an award-winning brand. I’m beyond grateful, and I can’t wait to continue this journey with you all. With love always, Nadya 🤍✨ #EssencesByNadya #AwardWinningSkincare #SkincareBrandOfTheYear #LuxurySkincare #VeganSkincare NaturalSkincare FemaleFounder SmallBusinessUK GlowingSkin SelfCareJourney by @essencesbynadya
✨🌿 I truly cannot believe that we did it again! 🌿✨ EssencesByNadya has won the Beauty & Skincare Award at the globally recognised @nourishawards in the Hair Care category — and we won last year too, but that was for our luxury facial oil! That’s two years in a row with the Nourish Awards. This year, our Luxury Hair & Scalp Oil received 🌟🌟🌟 3 Stars. What the stars mean (Nourish Awards): The programme awards 1–3 stars after expert evaluation — 3 Stars = the highest accolade/top score for truly outstanding products. I personally sent 6 bottles to 6 judges, and I’m overjoyed they loved the texture, shine, and results. Thank you, judges — and thank you, my beautiful community, for believing in small-batch care made with gentleness and intention. 🤍 Inside our Luxury Hair & Scalp Oil: • Jojoba – balances and hydrates the scalp • Lavender – comforts and soothes for calm-feeling roots • Rosemary – invigorates the scalp environment for fuller-looking hair • Cedarwood – helps purify and balance at the roots • Thyme – assists with a clean, refreshed scalp feel • Myrrh – calms and purifies the scalp, supports a balanced scalp environment, and cushions strands in silky softness Benefits you’ll feel: • Helps reduce hair fall/loss & thinning • Gently encourages new growth look and density • Maintains scalp health & clarifies buildup for a clean feel (myrrh + thyme + cedarwood) • Leaves hair soft, smooth and touchable • Removes frizz and softens coarse, stiff strands If your hair is asking for calm and glow, this is your moment. Just tap the link in our bio to bring our award-winning oil into your ritual today. Your hair will feel seen, soothed, and cherished. ✨ #EssencesByNadya #NourishAwards #3StarWinner #AwardWinningHairOil #HairGrowthOil #ScalpCare #AntiFrizz #HealthyHairJourney #ShineBoost #JojobaOil #RosemaryOil #LavenderOil #CedarwoodOil #ThymeOil #MyrrhOil by @essencesbynadya

Your glow deserves daily protection. One skincare habit I will always encourage? Making SPF 50 or 50+ part of your morning routine. @ultravioletteau , @beautyofjoseon_mena and @avene are three sunscreen favourites I have personally used and recommend. Because caring for your skin means nourishing it—and protecting it, too. Sun exposure can contribute to premature skin ageing, uneven skin tone and dark spots. A broad-spectrum sunscreen helps protect against UVA and UVB rays, reduces the risk of sunburn and is an important part of protecting your skin’s long-term health. And yes, your skin still needs protection on cloudy days. From London mornings to sunny Dubai afternoons, make sunscreen a daily habit. Here’s how to finish your EssencesByNadya morning ritual: SECOND-LAST SKINCARE STEP: Apply a small amount of our Luxury Facial Oil for soft, nourished, radiant-looking skin. Allow it to absorb so your skin doesn’t feel oily. LAST SKINCARE STEP: Apply your broad-spectrum SPF 50 or 50+ generously and evenly, before makeup. Remember your neck and ears, too. Always apply your facial oil and sunscreen separately—never mix them together. Our Luxury Facial Oil does not contain SPF and cannot replace sunscreen. If layering causes slipping or pilling, save your oil for your evening ritual. Apply sunscreen before heading outdoors, following the label directions. Reapply every two hours while outdoors and after swimming, sweating or towel drying. Pair it with shade, sunglasses and a hat—SPF 50 doesn’t mean all-day protection from one application. A little nourishment. Daily protection. A routine your skin deserves. Save this for your morning skincare routine and tell me: which sunscreen do you reach for? #EssencesByNadya #SPF50 #DailySPF #SunscreenRoutine #LuxuryFacialOil SkincareUK DubaiSkincare UltraViolette BeautyOfJoseon Avene by @essencesbynadya
