    How it works

    Keep your skincare simple. The Essentials Kit features the three fundamental steps of a daily skincare routine: cleanse, treat, and moisturize. Each product was carefully formulated and obsessively tested to be truly effective. No fillers or marketing gimmicks, just skincare that works.

    Start your routine with the creamy, cushiony Velvet Cleansing Milk to gently remove dirt, grime, sweat, and other buildup, without stripping your skin of its natural moisture. Pat dry and apply Soft Touch AHA, a leave-on exfoliant featuring 10% mandelic acid to reveal brighter, smoother skin. Wrap things up with our cult favorite moisturizer, Liquid Gold, which mimics and reinforces your natural moisture barrier for stronger, more resilient skin. Lights, camera, action: three steps and you’re ready to go.

    Is it right for me

    The Essentials Kit is formulated with all skin types in mind, including sensitive skin. Read more about Velvet Cleansing Milk here, Soft Touch AHA here, and Liquid Gold here.

    All Stratia products are free of common irritants like fragrance, alcohol, and essential oils.

    I just wish I'd bought all full sizes from the beginning

    I got this to trial everything, and loved it. I wish I had just gone ahead and got the full sizes to begin with! Especially the cleanser!

    Stratia was my first dive into taking skincare seriously. Prior to this I would use pretty much any off the shelf product and would often find my skin getting really dry or breakout. Did some research this time and came across this brand. The Essentials kit was a great entry into their product line and I found all three of their products gentle and effective on my skin. After about a week I went ahead and bought their full sized cleanser and moisturizer (liquid gold) and haven't regretted it. I can see myself staying loyal to this brand for a while.

    Fantastic Starter Kit

    I ordered this back in November 2020, and I loved it! I saw an immediate reduction in my skin's acne redness as well as my oily-ness. It used all of it for about a month and I only ran out of the cleanser and AHA. I still used the small Liquid Gold for another week. I highly recommend this start kit if you are curious about these products. It is affordable yet worth every penny.

    So far so good

    I ordered the Essential Kit and having been using the cleanser, AHA and Liquid Gold for the past week. I like them all! The cleanser is very gentle but thoroughly cleans my skin. The AHA makes my face feel smooth and the Liquid Gold is very moisturizing. I need to find more products that will help with sun damage - that's my biggest issue, along with super dry skin.
