No face is like another. The skincare industry often talks about perfection and youth. The truth is, no one has a perfect face. We all have pores, wrinkles, pigmentations and sometimes acne or blackheads. So when we were challenged to create a brand film for the cosmeceutical brand Elixir Cosmeceuticals, we wanted to show the beauty of imperfections.

The result was a film based on a celebratory script honoring the beauty that is the human face.

It’s there
When you wake up
And when you fall asleep

It’s there
Telling stories about joy
and sorrow

It’s there when you want it
and when you don’t
You can try to hide it
Look away
Pretend it doesn’t exist

But it’s impossible
inescapable
It is always there

Sunkissed
beaten by the wind
reddened and pale
Too bright
Too dark

It’s closest to the one you love
in breakouts and breakups
When you are calm
And when you are over the moon

It’s something you will live with
Something to love and care for
Throughout life

Long live the face
