First Aid Beauty: Chicago-Based PE ELL NORTH LLC Brings Gentle Skincare to the Masses
PE ELL NORTH LLC, a Chicago-based company operating out of the iconic 353 N Clark St building, is making waves in the skincare industry with its focus on First Aid Beauty – a brand dedicated to simple, effective solutions for sensitive, stressed skin. You might have seen their calming products popping up in drugstores and beauty retailers – and for good reason. They're not about flashy trends, they're about actually helping skin that’s having a hard time. For years, the folks at PE ELL NORTH noticed a gap in the market. So many skincare products were packed with harsh chemicals, fragrances, and ingredients that just irritated sensitive skin further. They wanted something different – a line that was dermatologist-tested, allergy-tested, non-comedogenic, and ultimately, kind to skin. That’s where First Aid Beauty comes in. “We really started with the idea of ‘skin first’,” explains a company spokesperson. “It’s about stripping things back to basics and focusing on what skin needs, not what’s ‘hot’ right now. We saw so many people struggling with redness, dryness, eczema, even just general irritation, and they were desperate for something that wouldn't make things worse." What makes First Aid Beauty different? It's all about the ingredients. Forget complicated ingredient lists you need a chemistry degree to decipher. First Aid Beauty champions the power of simple, yet effective ingredients. Key players include: Colloidal Oatmeal: This isn't your breakfast oatmeal! It's super-finely ground oats that create a protective barrier on the skin, soothing irritation and locking in moisture. It's a star ingredient in many of their most popular products, like the Ultra Repair Cream. Aloe Vera: A classic for a reason! Aloe vera is incredibly hydrating and soothing, helping to calm redness and inflammation. Allantoin: This ingredient is a real multi-tasker. It soothes, moisturizes, and promotes skin healing. Shea Butter: Rich and nourishing, shea butter provides deep hydration and helps to restore the skin's natural barrier. These ingredients, and many others carefully chosen by the team at PE ELL NORTH, are formulated to be gentle and effective. So, what products are people raving about? The Ultra Repair Cream is arguably their hero product. It's a rich, deeply hydrating cream that's clinically proven to instantly relieve dry, irritated skin. People with eczema, psoriasis, or just generally sensitive skin swear by it. It’s not just for the face, either – you can use it on your body, hands, even lips! It's seriously a lifesaver for winter dryness. But First Aid Beauty isn't just about heavy-duty creams. They’ve expanded their range to include a whole suite of products designed to address a variety of skin concerns. Facial Cleanser: Their gentle cleanser effectively removes makeup and dirt without stripping the skin of its natural oils. It's a great starting point for any skincare routine. Radiance Pads: These pads contain a mild acid blend to gently exfoliate the skin and reveal a brighter, more radiant complexion. They're a great way to tackle dullness without harsh irritation. Eye Duty Triple Remedy AM/PM Moisturizer: A cooling and hydrating eye cream that tackles dark circles, puffiness, and fine lines. Skin Rescue Water Cream: A lightweight, hydrating moisturizer that's perfect for those with oily or combination skin. Kupferprojekt Anti-Aging Serum: A powerful serum with peptides and antioxidants that combats signs of aging. PE ELL NORTH: More than just a distributor While they’re a key distributor of First Aid Beauty products, PE ELL NORTH plays a significant role in the brand’s ongoing development. They closely monitor consumer feedback, work with dermatologists and skincare experts, and continually refine the formulations to ensure they meet the evolving needs of their customers. “We’re not just shipping boxes,” says a company representative. “We're passionate about skincare and we're committed to helping people feel confident and comfortable in their own skin. We really believe that everyone deserves access to gentle, effective skincare."
