ANCIENT RITUALS FOR MODERN SKIN
Our Story
Inspired by ancient remedies used for millenia in Greece, our mission is to redefine skincare as a ritual, strengthening the skin’s barrier with high-quality Greek-sourced ingredients. Eleusia focuses on nourishing from the inside out, but we don’t just go skin-deep, we believe that skincare is deeply connected to both the gut and ultimately psychological - think how intelligent our gut-feelings are!
We are redefining skincare as a ritual and powered by probiotics to achieve a harmonious skin-gut microbiome. We are building a community and a movement goes beyond using skincare as daily task, but a beautiful ritual that can inspire self-confidence, care, and lay the groundwork for a happy, inspired, and add a bit of sparkle to your day.
“Inspired by Hippocrates’ wisdom that “all disease begins in the gut” nearly 2,500 years ago, I created Eleusia to approach beauty by nourishing the body holistically.”

FOUNDER
Elizabeth Farkas transitioned from a career in finance and dynamic startup environments to creating a skin wellness brand after a decade of battling cystic acne, gut dysbiosis, and a papillary thyroid carcinoma diagnosis. Her personal health journey culminated in a transformative visit to the ancient Asclepieion in Kos, Greece, where Hippocrates theorized, “all disease begins in the gut” 2,500 years ago. Frustrated by conventional skincare’s harsh, microbiome-disrupting ingredients, Elizabeth founded Eleusia to bridge timeless wisdom and cutting-edge science, delivering probiotic-powered, botanically focused formulas that nurture the skin-gut connection and elevate routines into meaningful rituals. Eleusia addresses a market gap by offering simple, effective products with fewer, high-quality, Greek- sourced ingredients. Unlike traditional brands, it builds a community embracing wellness as a philosophy of life.
