Behind the Brand: Jessica Wellness Skincare’s Clean Beauty Story

What if the products you trust to nourish your skin are actually working against it? That realization is what led Jessica Lameda, a certified health coach, to create Jessica Wellness Skincare. At the 10th Clean Beauty Awards, her Cleansing Oil 20% Ultra-Nutrition won first place, recognized for its ingredient integrity and biologically aligned formulation. 

The brand is built on a simple yet often overlooked idea: when skincare supports, not disrupts, the skin’s natural balance, real change happens. This award highlights a product designed to do just that, rooted in Jessica’s personal mission to deliver results without compromising health.

A Skincare Philosophy Rooted in Biology

Jessica Wellness Skincare began with a personal health revelation: despite living a healthy lifestyle, founder Jessica Lameda was struggling with skin issues and hair loss. The culprit, she discovered, was hidden in plain sight: commercial beauty products that disrupted her hormones and compromised her skin at a cellular level. That discovery set the foundation for a new kind of skincare, one that prioritizes real nourishment, not synthetic results.

At the heart of every Jessica Wellness product is a belief that skin thrives when it’s treated with biologically compatible ingredients. The brand formulates with pure vitamins, minerals, and enzymes. This avoids unnecessary additives and production shortcuts that often mask long-term damage. Its goal is to help the skin restore itself, not just look better temporarily. Each formulation is created in-house, in small batches, to preserve ingredient integrity and ensure maximum efficacy.

More Than Skincare: A Mission to Empower

“At Jessica Wellness, we go beyond surface-level beauty—our mission is to protect our health while delivering real, transformative results. This recognition reinforces the importance of formulating without harmful additives, preservatives, or unnecessary chemicals that compromise long-term skin health. It is a testament to the rigorous research and dedication that go into every product we create. For me, this is not just about skincare—it’s about empowering consumers with knowledge and providing them with formulations that work in harmony with their bodies. I am incredibly proud to see our efforts being recognized for setting new standards in the clean beauty industry.”

From a Kitchen Cream to an Award-Winning Lab

The brand’s journey is deeply personal. When Jessica arrived in the U.S. in 2018 with only $4,000, she began formulating her first product, The Magic Skin, in a friend’s kitchen. Orders were filled with the help of her two sons from a garage workspace. They learned the ropes of e-commerce, reinvested every dollar, and eventually built a full cosmetic lab dedicated to clean formulations. Every step was guided by persistence and principle.

Today, Jessica Wellness Skincare has made a measurable impact on its community. Customers dealing with complex issues like dark spots, psoriasis, or eczema often report visible improvements within days. The emotional ripple effect is just as powerful—helping people regain confidence and reclaim their relationship with their skin.

Built with Heart, Grit, and Family

“As a Hispanic woman in a new country, facing language barriers and financial limitations, the odds were against me. But my sons learned the language, mastered e-commerce, and together, we proved that success is possible with hard work and conviction. In 2019, after struggling to scale production, we secured a space for our own cosmetic lab, reinvesting every dollar to acquire the right equipment and meet growing demand. Every step of this journey has been guided by heart, intuition, and relentless effort—proving that passion and perseverance can turn dreams into reality”

A Commitment That Goes Beyond Clean

In an industry where “clean” can still mean compromised, Jessica Wellness sets itself apart by formulating only with actives that bring real benefits, not just better texture. By rejecting filler ingredients, even those deemed acceptable in clean beauty standards, the brand raises the bar for what clean skincare can be.

Jessica’s mission has always been to create products that protect health while producing visible results. The Clean Beauty Awards win for Cleansing Oil 20% Ultra-Nutrition stands as a validation of that work, proof that a health-first, science-driven approach can resonate in a crowded market.

Jessica Wellness Skincare’s first-place win at the 10th Clean Beauty Awards is a reflection of its commitment to effective, health-conscious skincare. The brand continues to develop formulations that support the skin’s natural repair process without compromise. To learn more, follow @jessicawellnessskincare on Instagram.
