As a lifelong skincare enthusiast and mother of two daughters, Gina McDonald had tried just about every skincare line under the sun. Her passion for healthy skin began early, and she spent years experimenting with various products, always in search of the perfect solution. When her teenage daughters Olivia and Marissa began struggling with acne-prone skin, Gina's quest took on a new level of urgency. She became even more committed to finding effective and safe skincare options, not just for herself, but for her daughters as well.

Gina's journey into the beauty industry started with her work with prestigious brands found in high-end department stores. However, her daughters’ concerns about harmful chemicals and additives in many popular products opened her eyes to the need for cleaner, more natural alternatives. Despite her desire to switch to all-natural lines, Gina found that these products often left her underwhelmed and disappointed. She realized that while natural ingredients were important, they needed to be combined with scientifically proven formulas to be truly effective.

Determined to find the perfect balance between nature and science, Gina partnered with a board-certified dermatologist to create a medical-grade line of clean skincare products. Named "Olissa Beauty" after her daughters Olivia and Marissa, the line embodies Gina's dedication to quality and efficacy. Olissa Beauty offers a range of products that combine natural ingredients with scientific innovation, ensuring they are both safe and effective.

Our mission is simple: to help women of all ages love their skin and feel confident about the quality ingredients they put on it.
