How Pai can help if you have sensitive skin | Sarah Brown

“All I ever wanted to do was instil trust – because I had none.” That’s what Pai’s Founder Sarah Brown says in our new brand campaign, as she reveals why our customers are at the heart of everything we do.  The new campaign celebrates our mission to bring confidence back to those with sensitive skin. And most importantly, it focuses on the community we serve – you – and why we do what we do.  Sarah created Pai in 2007, after her skin condition led her to lose trust in the confusing, medical-looking products that were marketed for her sensitive skin. Her own experience of wanting products that were made with natural ingredients, not just labelled as natural – and that were a joy to use – is what inspired the certified organic, transformative products we make at our West London lab today.  We know what it’s like to navigate new skincare. That’s why we’re here to help, in whatever way you need. Our expert skin coaches offer free consultations for advice and support – with no obligation to buy. We’re simply here to hold your hand and help you feel good in your skin again.  Subscribe to our channel to be first to know our latest news Follow us on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/paiskincare Facebook https://www.facebook.com/PaiSkincare  TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@paiskincare Discover more at www.paiskincare.com   Book your free skin consultation at  www.paiskincare.com  #paiskincare #sensitiveskin #certifiedclean #goodnessbuiltin #sensitiveskincare #skincare #organicskincare #certifiedorganic #madeinlondon #crueltyfree #veganskincare #bcorpcertified #sarahbrown #pai #urticaria #chronicurticaria

Want to know what our Founder Sarah Brown swears by for her sensitive skin routine? All is revealed in our latest brand campaign, which shines a spotlight on our Founder and her favourite skincare from our certified organic range.  The new campaign celebrates our mission to bring confidence back to those with sensitive skin, and to provide them with aspirational, hard working products that don’t feel like a compromise.

Sarah praises its 100% natural Rosehip-fuelled formula for keeping skin beautifully balanced.  Century Flower Barrier Defence Mist, £39 Formulated with Lotus and Hyaluronic Acid, this 100% alcohol-free mist is clinically proven to strengthen the skin’s barrier function*. Sarah layers it between skincare steps to lock in moisture and keep flare-ups at bay.  The Anthemis Soothing Moisturiser, £39 This bestseller is Sarah’s moisturiser of choice to keep skin calm. Its omega-rich formula is powered by superior CO2 extracts of organic Chamomile and Rosehip, to ensure the highest potency and efficacy. Rosehip Bioregenerate Rejuvenating Overnight Face Oil, £29  Sarah applies a couple of drops of this cult face oil before bed to brighten, smooth and nourish. With over 1,800 five-star reviews and over one million bottles sold, it’s our most iconic product – and it contains 700% more protective antioxidants than competitor oils**.

More Information

The Full Story

I entered the world of filmmaking like a lot of people do, by creating short animated films with my toys using my dads old camcorder when I was 8. I’ve improved a bit more since then…

In my career I have worked on feature films, music videos, short films - "Night Walk" (semi finalist for best narrative short and best first time director at L.I.M.P.A. London International Motion Picture Awards), Political campaigns for Sadiq Khan and Lisa Nandy, corporate films for tech companies and start ups, documentaries - including my soon to be released feature length documentary about knife crime called, "Ballers Club".  


I enjoy the process of telling someone's story through the medium of film, or in the case of documentary and charity films, giving a voice to those who feel that they don’t have one. Every story is worth telling, it just depends on what angle you come at it. I love to work with people and find out about their business, music, app, concept, event, theatre show, product, short film, charity/voluntary organisation or what ever it is that they are passionate about and want share with the world and develop their idea into a piece of dynamic and captivating cinema for others to view.
