The story behind the brand: how Wendy Iles saved celebrity hair with the Iles Formula finish
Iles Formula was developed by internationally acclaimed celebrity hairstylist Wendy Iles. Over the course of her four-decade career, she's become famous for her ability to rescue tortured celebrity hair and transform it into breath-takingly nourished, lustrous locks.
Hours of intense styling for film, television, and editorial shoots can often leave celebrities with stressed, damaged hair, so Wendy decided to develop her own high-performance formulas. She designed them to care, repair, protect, strengthen, and nourish across all hair types, in a single treatment, with immediate results.
It's a tall order, but Wendy used her life savings to achieve it. The result is a ground-breaking formula which she kept for private use on her clients. Soon enough, they were demanding their own supply!
"It was at the insistence of the celebrities who I was working with and continue to work with to this day that Iles Formula is available to the public today," says Wendy.
"Once they had experienced my formulas first-hand, they always reached out to me directly wanting to purchase more. It was then that I made the decision to box my 3 formulas in a luxury box, 'The Signature Collection' and the rest, they say is history."

The Iles Formulas 3 Step Process
Have your locks been feeling lacklustre since lockdown? Maybe you're planning your bridal hair and want to prepare for the big day? Either way, the Iles Formula 3-step system is one of the quickest, kindest, most effective hair repair treatments you could wish for.
Instantly detangle, repair, and protect your hair while you cleanse it. The gentle formulation is free from sulphates, parabens and silicone, and won't dry your hair out or strip its colour.
Known as the 'jewel of the Iles Formula collection', this conditioner was developed to repair and nurture all hair types from the very first use. It won't cause harmful silicon, keratin or protein build-up on your hair and is truly a must-have product.
The Iles Formula Finishing Serum is wonderfully lightweight and designed for both wet and dry hair. It protects from UV damage, heated styling damage, colour fade, and humidity. It can even seal split ends if used regularly enough!
Top tip! If you're new to Iles Formula, you can enjoy the full 3-step process as part of Wendy's original Signature Collection Box or sample them via the Discovery & Travel Kit.
Hair Mask
Want more? You can add the Iles Formula Hair Mask into your 3-step system to add extra strength and nourishment. Apply the mask after you shampoo but before you condition and treat your scalp and hair shaft to a cocktail of vitamin-infused, raw, virgin ingredients.
Top tip! Turn the nurture up a notch with the Iles Formula Spa Pack. It includes the Shampoo, Conditioner, Hair Mask, and a conditioner distribution comb, all tucked away into a vegan faux leather pack. It's pure decadence!
Curl Revive Spray
Transform frizz and fluff into defined, perfectly-formed curls with a quick spritz of this cashmere-like spray. Iles Formula Curl Revive Spray also works wonders on wavy, thick, or coarse hair textures and doubles as a nourishing blow-dry serum for straighter, thicker Asian hair types. It protects against heated styling tools, humidity, colour fading and UV damage.
Top tip! Upgrade to the Iles Formula Curl Revival Pack and take your textured hair care to the next level. The pack comes with travel-sized sachets of the 3-step Shampoo, Conditioner and Serum combo, and a full-sized Curl Revive Spray.

Positive Luxury: a certified 'Brand to Trust'
Iles Formula is a certified 'Brand To Trust' with sustainability platform Positive Luxury. Each product carries the Butterfly Mark — an international accreditation that recognises the brand's commitment and measurable impact on sustainability.
The products are formulated using raw, natural ingredients and packaged in recyclable containers free from microplastics. Iles Formula exclusively works with suppliers who are committed to the permanent improvement of sustainability standards. They're an ISO 14001 certified company, which means they've achieved the international standard for effective environmental management.
Iles Formulations are focused on giving back to the planet rather than taking from it. This is particularly true regarding the Amazon Rainforest, whose extraordinary diversity is key to their production process. Many of their most powerful ingredients are sourced from the rainforest floor, so they give back by planting 40 seedling trees every month.
Every Iles Formula collection is consciously designed and mindfully created. They rely on the integrity of their winning formulations, not on increasing turnover with countless product launches.
