Our story
Skin care rooted in science, guided by intuition
Melian House was born from a belief that every complexion deserves expert, personalised attention — wherever you are in the world.
How it began
A practice built on curiosity and care
Melian House began as a quiet conviction: that truly transformative skin care should not be limited by geography. After years working in high-end clinics and luxury spas, our founder Amanda recognised a gap — clients who needed expert guidance but could not access it in person.
She built Melian House as a fully virtual practice, combining clinical rigour with the warmth and intimacy of a private studio. Every consultation, every skin plan, every follow-up is crafted with the same care she would give a client sitting across from her.
Today, Melian House serves clients across North America and beyond — each one receiving a bespoke experience designed around their unique skin, lifestyle, and goals.

What we stand for
The principles behind every skin plan
Personalisation above all
No two complexions are the same. Every recommendation we make is built around your unique skin biology, lifestyle, and goals — never a one-size-fits-all protocol.
Science with soul
We draw on the latest dermatological research and ingredient science, balanced with an intuitive, holistic understanding of how skin responds to stress, environment, and care.
Transparency and trust
We explain the why behind every recommendation. You will always understand what we are doing, why we are doing it, and what to expect — no mystery, no pressure.
Long-term skin health
We are not interested in quick fixes. Our goal is to help you build a sustainable relationship with your skin — one that serves you for years, not just weeks.
