Our approach

Skincare can feel overwhelming — endless options, confusing ingredient lists, and bold marketing claims.

We’ve done the research for you: decoding ingredients and matching them to each skin type and concern, guided by the latest scientific studies.

Each guide also gives you insight into your own skin, so skincare becomes something you understand, not something you have to figure out alone.

Simple yet effective

We don’t believe in 10-step routines. Only what truly supports lasting skin health.

Backed by science

Every recommendation is grounded in published research, not trends.

Personalised to you

Tailored to your skin, your goals, and your budget — with clear explanations.

No brand influence

Independent recommendations with no sponsorships, partnerships, or bias.

Created by industry experts

Layrd was created by people who’ve worked behind the scenes at some of the world’s biggest beauty corporations, across both product development and marketing. We know what goes into the bottle, what’s just hype, and how to cut through the noise to find what truly works.

“For the first time, my skincare routine makes sense. It’s simple, clear, and tailored to what my skin needs.”

— Emily, 34

“I’ve stopped guessing. Layrd gave me a routine I understand and trust, and my skin has never felt better.”

— Chloe, 29

“I used to buy too much and still feel unsure. Now I’ve got a routine that works, and nothing goes to waste.”

— Sarah, 42

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to take photos to get a personalised routine?

No photos are required. Your routine is created from your quiz answers — no selfies or scans needed.

We do, however, recommend progress photos to help you track changes over time.
Do I need to be in the UK?

Not at all. While we’re based in the UK, your routine is built using products readily available to you locally, making skincare personal wherever you are.
What skincare brands do you recommend?

We’re brand-neutral. Our team continually updates the database with the best options available.

If you have preferences, you can share them in the comments section of your quiz.
Do you ship the products?

We don’t ship products. Instead, we recommend the best options available where you live, so you’re free to purchase them in your own time, without pressure.
Do I need to buy full routine in one go?

No. Your guide is flexible — you can start with a few essentials and build at your own pace. We’ll advise on how to add products, but when and how you shop is up to you.
What skin concerns do you cover?

We support a wide range, including sensitivity, congestion, texture, pigmentation, dehydration, and signs of ageing.

For persistent or worsening conditions like acne, rosacea, or eczema, we recommend seeing a GP or dermatologist.
Is it a subscription service?

No — you’ll receive a complete personalised routine with clear, expert-backed guidance, no strings attached.

We do suggest reviewing your routine every 3 months, as skin needs can change with time and the seasons.
Is this only for women?

Not at all. Layrd is for everyone — all skin types, all ages, all genders.
