Ellie Penfold started her professional journey in the modelling world, where she made a name for herself with her striking looks and poised demeanour.
The distinct experience in the fashion world made it possible for her to develop a work ethic and perspective on beauty and skincare that would later become an important asset in her business endeavours.
Though she has moved further away from modelling, the start of her career shaped her approach to aesthetics as well as beliefs about self-confidence, the kind she strives to foster in the world through Preppy Skin.
In 2011, Ellie was united in marriage to Jermaine Jenas, who is a former professional football player and a co-presenter on The One Show.
Together, they have established a loving and nurturing family, where Ellie is the main caregiver for their four children.
Jermaine has held a public career, which has pegged the family in the media spotlights on several occasions, but Ellie has managed to be quite discreet and down to earth when it comes to managing her family’s life.
For her, having three children has been both a pleasure as well as a difficult task. She always snaps herself with children and posts on her Instagram page, @elliejenas, which has gathered over 14000 followers recently. Such posts feature important events in her children’s lives, such as birthdays, vacations and holidays, that help her and her family build valuable experiences and create memories.
Ellie Penfold started thinking about the beauty industry as a business and quickly noticed one thing: there are plenty of skin care products today available for adults and babies but not specifically designed for children and teenagers.
Young skin has particular needs, and Ellie decided that there was an opportunity for parents with such skin types to have a reliable and trustworthy product.
Children’s skin should be cared for in a way that’s easy, soothing and fun. Also, teenagers should simply be helped to establish good habits and routines that will carry on later in life.
This led Ellie to find and build Preppy Skin, a skincare brand aimed at taking care of kids and teen skin. Preppy’s simple aim is to ensure that skin care is made easy, fun and safe for its target users.
Based on her experiences of being a mother, Ellie understands what parents want when looking for kids’ skincare and combines it with a fun twist that is hard not to like for parents and their children at the same time.
Preppy Skin products are uniquely designed to meet the specific needs of young consumers while maintaining a hint of playfulness. The brand’s tagline, “Get ready to meet your new bathroom bestie,” captures its aim to make skincare a natural part of kids’ daily routines.
Contrary to industrial skin care, which is typically impersonal and overly adult as marketed by many brands, Preppy Skin is focused around advertising. It’s the perfect way to introduce young clients to new products and makes skincare feel more fun rather than a tedious task.
Preppy Skin’s product range is still in its early stages, with Ellie continually developing new ideas and products. The brand’s official Instagram account, @preppyskin, has over 500 followers and serves as a platform to share updates and interact with potential customers.
Ellie wants Preppy Skin to be more than a business that offers products. In her view, people should be able to comfortably use products on their children, and children should be able to comfortably use products on themselves.
The brand’s website, preppy skin offers parents and young users the opportunity to join the newsletter, allowing them to be the first to know about new product launches and useful information about skincare.
There is a primary principle that focuses on the quality of the ingredients used in the cosmetic products of Preppy Skin. Ellie is involved in making sure that children do not risk using products containing harmful substances.
Social media is not a thing that she stays away from, as she frequently updates her followers through her Instagram and takes them along her life narrative of being a mother and an entrepreneur.
She has two Instagram accounts; while @elliejenas provides a more intimate look into her family life, @preppyskin offers updates on the brand and serves as a resource for parents and kids.
Her husband Jemaine Jenas has a following of 209 K on his Instagram page, whereas 284.4 K people follow him on X. His following on his Facebook page is 88K.
Even as she grows her brand of cosmetics each day while also backing her spouse and the rest of her family, Ellie Penfold stands out as more than just a soccer player’s spouse. She has progressed in every role, from modelling to business. In her business, she has demonstrated her entrepreneurial flair, while her dedication to family epitomises her tenacity and loyalty.
