Shop the hero shelf
A serum, a cream, a cleanser. Each one is the result of two years of formulation, six rounds of clinical testing, and a single rule: it earns its bottle or it doesn’t ship.
Bestseller10% niacinamide + 5% vitamin C. Visible glow in 14 days, even tone in 8 weeks. Lightweight, fragrance-free.
NewPeptide-rich whipped moisturizer with squalane + ceramides. Replaces three steps; finishes like satin, never tacky.
Sugarcane-derived emulsifying balm. Melts SPF, mascara, and the day. Leaves skin feeling cushioned, never stripped.
Formulated in Los AngelesOur promise
Vellum’s lab is in Echo Park. Every formula goes through six rounds of clinical testing, two consumer in-use studies, and a board-certified derm review before it ships. Then it goes through yours.
1,800-ingredient screen. We exclude every ingredient on the EU restricted list - even where US law still allows it.
Clinically active dosages. We list the % of every active on the front of the bottle. If it’s under the studied threshold, it doesn’t go in.
Recyclable, refillable glass. Refills ship in 92% post-consumer paper. The bottle stays in your cabinet for the next ten years.

The Vellum Method
We’ve done the homework so you can do less. Three formulas, used in order, twice a day. That’s the routine.
Step 01 · Cleanse
Warm a pea-sized scoop. Massage onto dry skin for 30 seconds. Rinse with warm water. SPF and the day go down the drain.
Step 02 · Treat
Two drops, mornings. Niacinamide + vitamin C even tone over eight weeks. Layer under sunscreen and walk out.
Step 03 · Cushion
A fingertip swept across both cheeks. Peptides, squalane, ceramides. Day or night, never tacky, never heavy.
Every ingredient we source, every texture we develop, every batch we test - photographed in our Echo Park lab.

“I have a cabinet of $200 cleansing balms and the Marble one out-performs every single one. The texture, the rinse-off, the no-residue. Cult product.”
