    FROM OUR FOUNDER

    “Here’s something you won’t hear often when brands talk about product: the pH is as important, if not more so, than the percentages. Your skin is the pH of around 5.5, and for anything to penetrate it needs to be lower – but not so low that you shoot yourself in the foot. This serum is a pH of 4.2, meaning it’ll actually work, and all those great ingredients can do their thing.”
    – PAMELA MARSHALL, Founder & Formulator

    PRESS PRAISE

    “Pamela Marshall is a facial therapist who doesn’t suffer fools or nonsense, and sticks to only skincare and techniques she knows have long-term value and benefit her clients at her London Mortar & Milk Clinic. Her first eponymous and entirely sustainable skincare venture is based around her favourite ingredient, PHA’s, the ultra-gentle acids that she loves for their proven hydrating, mildly exfoliating and barrier-repairing prowess. An unscented, silky liquid, you dispense a few drops into your palms and smooth them on your face – it’s gentle enough to use day and night under moisturiser. There’s piperonyl glucoside in her as well to hydrate and add antioxidant protection; with time you skin will visibly brighten up and feel and look smoother.”
    – INGEBORG VAN LOTRINGEN, GTG Freelance Beauty Editor

      Truly THE most incredible serum on so many levels, visible results with immediate effect but also lasting and even further results with continued use. On my third bottle and just about to stock up on this ‘simple’ yet crucial part of my skincare routine! Thank you Pam for creating this miracle product!! x

    2. rebeccacribben –

      The MOST amazing serum that everyone should own. It makes my skin feel happy, calm and hydrated and I have quite sensitive skin. The 100ml bottle means it lasts longer which is amazing as I use it morning and night! I will never be without this magic serum ❤️

    3. Tanya Hughes –

      Some serums, especially if they are effective, have side effects and irritate the skin – leaving it blotchy or sensitive – not this one. This serum glides on like silk but makes the skin feel hydrated and calm but don’t be fooled ! Over time this power house refines the skin and leaves it just looking better. Love it and have re-purchased. Excellent, effective product.

    4. todd.fiona –

      I love this PHA serum- it has really turned my skin around.
      I’ve always suffered with acne prone, oily skin and am now in my mid 50s. My skin can’t tolerate the rich anti-aging creams available but this has been different and my skin has responded so well. It has been a game changer as I feel I can look after my skin as it ages without worrying about spots.
      Fantastic product.

    5. annacnorth –

      Wish I’d discovered this product sooner, my skin loves it. Also love that my skincare regime is simplified as able to use this day and night, and the bigger bottle – I’m 3/4 through my first bottle after 6 months of using 2x/day. Very happy to no longer need to shop around and scatter-gun try different serums with mediocre impact!

    6. gtmsphotos –

      I’ve just ordered my third bottle of PH serum. I’ve been using it for daily for about 18 months now, so I guess they last well! I’m 56 and it’s just head and shoulders above any other serum I’ve used in the previous decade. The effects were visible almost immediately and I’m happy to have found the one, I no longer hop around trying different serums.

    7. Carolyn Abbott –

      This serum is amazing, it protects the skin and reduces inflammation and dare I say a slightly smaller pore size. I personally also love the smell of the serum. I have tried many seems over the years and this serum is one on its own. Wonderful serum, a perfect barrier product for the skin.

    8. kristenmueller –

      I’ve used this product daily for months now and I love the way it keeps my skin calm and glowing. I do a lot of things which irritate my skin – lots of sun and wind exposure – and this really neutralises the impact of those irritants. I just know when I use it, my skin will be much happier and look better as a result.

    9. Sophie Blair –

      Her treatments are incredible and she really cares about her clients. She is getting my skin ready for my wedding coming up and I feel so much more relaxed knowing she is in control. My skin has improved so much thanks to her advice and to her PHA (Barrier Repair Serum) product, which is actual magic and seems to last forever! Becoming one of Pam’s clients is honestly one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

    10. Jessica Colley –

      I couldn’t recommend her (Pamela) and the team highly enough. I have been her client for almost 4 years and has guided me on how to deal extremely sensitive and eczema prone skin. Her serum (PHA Barrier Repair) is amazing and my number 1 skin care product. Much love Pam

    11. Tanya Hughes –

      I ordered the amazing serum last Sept / Oct and loved it so much that when my sister suggested a weekend away in London (we live in Ireland) I had to book a facial. Pam was so welcoming and helpful with advice for my skin, a beautiful facial which gave me glowing skin not just that day and the days after – but lasting effects for weeks. I’ve used (and love) the serum (PHA Barrier Repair) and the lip product (Lip Complex). Cannot recommend both Mortar and Milk and its products highly enough – just wish I lived closer to visit more often.

    12. Eve Otway –

      Pam was an angel. She listened to my concerns around my skin and pregnancy and millions of other things, and kindly reassured. My skin did get better and I’m now visiting Pam to clear up some of the scarring as a result of the acne which is starting to disappear with the help of the PHA barrier serum. My friends have commented that my skin has never looked so good… the serum is now my ‘cannot live without’ product and has even helped to clear up some recurring psoriasis.

    13. Helen Ryan –

      Pam’s knowledge has made a real, and lasting difference to my skin, I’ve visited more than one dermatologist in the past with no positive results, so I’m hugely grateful to her. On my visit to her salon she was so generous; sharing her expertise, time and products. Both she and her team are caring and delightful. Her PHA serum is brilliant, but I wouldn’t expect any less of her. Please don’t disappear Pam, my skin would be lost without you! X

    14. Kate Hose –

      Having had several facials at Mortar and Milk, and purchased their serum and lip treatments, I couldn’t rate mortar and milk more highly. Every experience has been friendly, professional and highly knowledgeable. Both the lip treatment and serum are amazing, please bring out some more products!

    15. Shivali Ranamadi –

      Finally after 45 years I have great skin! Pam’s facials are amazing. The serum (PHA Barrier Repair Serum) is an absolute game changer – it makes me glow, literally. Could not recommend more if I tried

    16. Paul Marsh –

      I have tried hundreds of serums. I work in the skincare industry so we try A LOT of great products. This serum, Pam’s PHA serum, is beyond incredible. Generally speaking, I have good skin (maybe slightly sensitive with some redness on my chin), but this serum has given my skin an incredible clarity. I love applying it, as it has a gentle tingle which feels so fresh. My redness has totally toned down now.

    17. Bree –

      This serum has helped reduce my redness. Overall my skin is much clearer too. I like that I get several good months use for this product too. Well worth the money.

    18. Bruce –

      This serum has really reduced the redness and sensitivity in my chin area. I find shaving much easier now.
