Highest Standards. Proven Effectiveness
Our formulations are proprietary to us, developed and made in the U.S. but held to the world’s strictest safety benchmark: EU certification. That means every ingredient has been vetted, every detail considered. The result is skincare that’s as dependable and refined as the men who use it.
Men’s skin isn’t just a little different
It's biologically distinct.
On average, it’s about 25% thicker, produces nearly twice as much oil, and has a higher density of collagen fibers. While that collagen gives skin firmness, the deeper structural pattern also leads to deeper wrinkle formation over time. Add to that the constant stress of shaving-induced inflammation, and it’s clear that men’s skin requires a regimen built specifically for its needs.
A Comprehensive System
We designed Iris & Cole’s EXLR Serum and Blue Moon Balm as a complete two-step system.
ELXR Serum
Lightweight and fast-absorbing, formulated for morning use when skin is most exposed to environmental stressors. It delivers antioxidant protection, hydration, and barrier support without leaving residue.
Blue Moon Balm
Rich, restorative, and designed for evening repair when skin enters its natural renewal cycle. It melts perfectly at skin temperature, delivering nourishment and calm without feeling greasy.
Our Proprietary Formulation
Science-Based Formulation
Ingredients have been chosen to deliver essential fatty acids, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory compounds to match the specific challenges of men’s skin.
Non-greasy, comfortable textures
Formulated to absorb into men’s skin quickly without shine or heaviness.
100% Botanical Actives
The earliest known extensive use of botanical ingredients for skincare dates back to Ancient Egypt around 5000 BC, when Egyptians formulated oils and creams from plants like olive oil and essential oils from herbs to protect against harsh climates and promote healthy skin.
Today, extensive clinical studies have shown that Botanicals have measurable benefits in human skin -- improved hydration, elasticity, and pigmentation.
EU Certified. American Made.
Though they are produced in the USA, our products are certified by an independent lab to the higher standards of the EU. So you know they're clean and safe.
