Our Story
Where Science Meets Self-Care.
Nuakiri MD was created from a deep belief that every woman deserves to feel confident in her skin—naturally, effortlessly, and with intention. Founded in Canada by Dr. Liezl Sullivan, our brand combines advanced dermatological science with a holistic approach to skincare. Designed for all skin types and concerns, our system follows a powerful five-pillar philosophy: Cleanse, Tone, Correct, Prevent, and Moisture & Hydration. Each product is carefully formulated to support long-term skin health, offering real results rooted in integrity, innovation, and eco-conscious care. At Nuakiri MD, we don’t follow beauty trends—we help you uncover timeless radiance, from the inside out.
