Our Story
Skincare that means
something
Moumoujus was born from the search for a moisturiser formulated for sensitive skin. One that actually works without fillers or irritants. Every formula we create starts with a question: does this ingredient serve a purpose?
The Founder
A personal
mission
Moumoujus began as a personal mission to find the best skincare for psoriasis. Four years ago, after the loss of my father, my mum suffered a severe psoriasis flare-up, and nothing seemed to help. Every product we tried was either too harsh, too full of unnecessary ingredients, or simply not designed with sensitive, reactive skin in mind. We needed a real barrier repair moisturiser.
My background is in design, where I spent years creating experiences that balance function with beauty. That training shaped how I approached skincare: with precision, intention, and zero tolerance for filler. I partnered with leading cosmetic chemists and spent 18 months developing a ceramide moisturiser with barrier-repairing actives like ectoin, peptides, and exosomes, and eventually The Mantle™ was born. A multi-active fluid designed to calm, nourish, and simplify skincare for sensitive and reactive skin.
The name Moumoujus is a tribute to my mum's background, a blend of French softness and Swiss clarity. It reflects everything we believe skincare should be: universal, genderless, ageless, and uncompromisingly grounded in dermatological science. Cruelty-free and made in the UK.

Not more skincare, just better skin.
No fillers. No clutter.
No compromise.
We believe the beauty industry has a noise problem. Too many ingredients, too many claims, too much distraction from what actually matters: skin barrier repair and lasting results.
That's why every Moumoujus product is intentionally minimal. Our ceramide moisturiser uses only what your skin needs. Nothing more, nothing less. Cutting-edge actives like ectoin, ceramides, exosomes, and peptides form the backbone of our barrier repair moisturiser formulations. Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive and psoriasis-prone skin.
Born in Manchester. Formulated with science. Cruelty-free skincare, made in the UK.
The science behind the formulas
We carefully select each active ingredient based on published clinical research and proven efficacy.
Our Formulation System
Powered by VEIL-3™
VEIL-3™ is Moumoujus’ three-layer formulation system, designed to support hydration, barrier care and visible skin comfort. Each product adapts VEIL-3™ to its specific purpose, but the principle stays the same: support hydration, strengthen the feel of the skin barrier and improve visible comfort.
Hydration Layer
Water-binding ingredients help skin feel fresh, supple and replenished.
Barrier Layer
Skin-supportive lipids and emollients help strengthen the feel of the moisture barrier.
Comfort Layer
Soothing actives help reduce the look of stress, dryness and visible discomfort.
Ectoin
Deep cellular protection
A natural extremolyte shown to protect skin cells from UV damage, pollution, and blue light. Reduces inflammation and strengthens the skin barrier. Ideal for sensitive and psoriasis-prone skin.
Ceramides
Skin barrier repair
Essential lipid molecules that mirror your skin's natural barrier structure, preventing transepidermal water loss. Our triple complex (NP, AP, EOP) delivers deep barrier repair at the cellular level.
Exosomes
Cellular regeneration
Nano-sized vesicles carrying growth factors and signalling molecules that support cell renewal, promote collagen synthesis, and improve overall skin texture and tone.
Peptides
Firmness & elasticity
Short chains of amino acids that act as cellular messengers, supporting collagen and elastin production to reduce fine lines and support skin firmness and resilience.
