Our Story
💫 My Journey to Elyesence
“Where a dream of the skies turned into something even more grounded — a brand born from self-love, resilience, and the heart of two people in Dubai.”
My name is Elleny, and in 2021, I moved to Dubai with a dream that many young women have — to become a cabin crew for Emirates.
I was drawn by the elegance, the purpose, and the pride of wearing that uniform. I saw Dubai not just as a city, but as a place where women can live safely, independently, and with dignity — surrounded by a rich culture and kind, respectful people.
While chasing that dream, I started working at Global Village, representing Thailand in the Thailand Pavilion.
There, I discovered something amazing:
People in the UAE truly love Thailand.
They love our natural beauty, warm hospitality, herbal scents, and the energy we carry. I loved introducing them to Thai products, negotiating, and sharing stories that helped them connect to our culture.
I worked there for 3 full seasons, and I began to understand what truly sells:
a good product, a beautiful story, and something that touches the heart.
Later, I stepped into the world of luxury hospitality, working in a 5-star hotel in Business Bay. I wanted to grow in service — not just for my future dream as a cabin crew, but because I genuinely love caring for people.
Through this, I learned confidence, elegance, service from the heart, and professionalism — values I still carry today.
Then, one day, I was invited to an airline interview. It felt like my dream was close.
But I was asked:
“What happened to your skin?”
I was honest. After moving here, my skin suffered from water changes, harsh sun, dry winters, and stress. It was painful — not just physically, but emotionally. I lost my confidence.
So I started healing.
I tried everything. I tested dozens of products. Some worked, some didn’t — depending on the air, water, and pollution. But eventually, I flew home to Thailand for a short break, and there… I made my first handmade soap. Just for myself.
Then I shared it with my family.
Then my friends.
And they loved it.
I brought it back to Dubai. I sold at Global Village. The results were beautiful — but the business failed.
I tried again. New look. New formula. It didn’t succeed.
But I never gave up.
I believed in this dream because I believed in the people I was making it for.
Between attempts, I found a small factory in Thailand. We worked through 3–4 formulas, carefully chosen for UAE skin and lifestyle. We tested, tweaked, adjusted — until the day Elyesence was born.
💛 Why the name Elyesence?
It’s a name that blends my name (Elleny) and his name — the man I fell in love with here in Dubai.
He supported me through the hard days, believed in the dream, and stood beside me — not only as a life partner, but also as a business partner.
Elyesence is made of two names.
Two hearts.
One love.
And a shared dream — to build something meaningful in a country that gave us so much.
This brand is my journey — of service, healing, creativity, and love.
Everything you see — the formula, the packaging, the scent, the softness — I designed it all myself. Not just to make something beautiful… but to make something that makes you feel beautiful, too.
To all my UAE customers:
Thank you for loving Thai products.
Thank you for welcoming women like me to grow and thrive.
And thank you for letting me turn a personal dream… into a brand with heart.
