Global skincare manufacturing. One EL TESSA standard.

EL TESSA (Private) Limited is a premium skincare manufacturer in Pakistan with a global outlook. Our products begin with Korean formulations. They are made within our manufacturing network across Korea, China and Pakistan.

This is global skincare manufacturing with one rule: the same EL TESSA standard, wherever a product is made. We work with actives that have years of published research behind them, such as vitamin C, niacinamide, salicylic acid and retinol. We use them at the right strength. Where the strength matters, we print it on the label. Every order ships sealed, authentic and in-date.

Our head office in Lahore leads the range, the brand and client care. From here, we are building a global distribution network for our beauty-care products, so Korean-formulated skincare from EL TESSA can reach more people, in more places.

  • Korean formulations. Our range follows Korean skincare science, with researched actives at the right strength.
  • Made in Korea, China and Pakistan. Our manufacturing network spans three countries and works to one EL TESSA standard.
  • Led from Lahore. EL TESSA (Private) Limited is headquartered in Lahore, Pakistan, where the range and the brand are led.

Our next chapter: EL TESSA distribution partners are coming soon in the UAE (including Dubai), Saudi Arabia and the United Kingdom. Distributors and wholesale buyers can apply to become an EL TESSA distributor.

Our approach

Good skincare is not complicated. It is precise. We use ingredients with many years of published research behind them: vitamin C, niacinamide, salicylic acid, glycolic acid, retinol, glutathione and broad-spectrum SPF. We use them at the right strength and we print the strength on the label.

We also think about the weather our customers live in: strong sun for most of the year, city dust and pollution, humid summers and dry winters.

The EL TESSA Standard

  • Genuine products only. Every product ships sealed, in date, and exactly as the label describes.
  • Clear strength. Where the active matters, we state the percentage. Our Acne Control Serum is 2% salicylic acid. Our Toning Solution is 7% glycolic acid.
  • Honest timelines. Skin changes slowly. Every product page shows a realistic timeline, not a promise.
  • Real service. Free delivery in Pakistan. Pay by card for 10% off, or pay on delivery (COD) - Pakistan only. A real person answers every message.
