What Valerie does

Valerie is a London-based, privately-held consumer wellness brand founded in 2024 that develops and sells liposomal nutrient shots formulated specifically for women aged 35–55 navigating perimenopause and menopause. The company's core technology is liposomal nanotechnology delivery, claimed to provide 5x better nutrient absorption than standard supplements by protecting active ingredients from digestive degradation. Its flagship product is the AM:PM Formula — an intelligent nutrient system pairing a Daily Essential morning shot (12 active nutrients, Wild Berry flavor) with an Evening Essential night cap (10 active nutrients, Vanilla & Lavender), coordinated around circadian nutrient timing. The product range also includes accessories such as the Peri Pocket travel vial, the Goldie Lookin' Spoon, and branded merchandise.

Valerie operates a direct-to-consumer go-to-market via a Shopify-powered e-commerce storefront with monthly subscription plans (£76.70/month for 30-day AM:PM supply, £70.80/month equivalent for 90-day bundles at 40% savings) and single-shot standalone SKUs. Distribution is augmented through UK retail partnerships with Holland & Barrett, Liberty London, Face the Future, and Revital. Marketing relies on content (The Hot Edit Blog, Wild Woman newsletter), social channels (Instagram, TikTok, Facebook), a referral program (Give 30%, Get £20), influencer partnerships, and earned media in Vogue, The Grocer, Liz Earle Wellbeing, Top Santé, Evening Standard, and Daily Mail. The brand offers a 90-day money-back guarantee and cites 200+ clinical studies backing ingredient selection, with self-reported user trial outcomes of 80% feeling a difference within 4 weeks, 88% reporting steadier energy at 30 days, and 92% reporting calmer stress response by day 90.

The company is led by co-founders Olly Johnson and Wizz Selvey, supported by a clinical advisory team including Dr Ginny Ponsford (Head of Medical & Clinical Research; CEO of The Women's Hormone Clinic), Becks Heath (NHS Lead Nurse, Perimenopause Expert in Residence), Stefanie Daniels NT (Nutritional Therapist), and Liz Marsland (Professional Trainer & Nutrition Coach). As of April 2025, Valerie had raised $684,697 in disclosed seed funding, operates with 1–10 employees, and remains UK-only in geographic scope.
