Sabrina Elba talks about collaborating with her husband Idris Elba to launch their own skin care line, S’ABLE Labs.
Sabrina, 35, who met the 51-year-old actor in 2017 before they tied the knot in 2019, was at BeautyCon in Los Angeles to launch her line.
She opened up in an extensive interview with People where she discussed how different it was working with her husband – days after the couple were spotted at the Defender Rugby World Cup in Paris.
The model and media personality admitted there was “a big learning curve” when I started working with her husband.
“It’s not a perfect partnership, but we’ve definitely developed ways to work together,” Sabrina said.

“We started a podcast to see how other people did it, and we learned so much,” she added.
“I think it’s about having the right boundaries and understanding that, as you know, finding work is not the same as finding date night,” she added.
‘There are suitable options; work hours, for example, have been a big learning curve for me,” she admitted.
S’ABLE Labs’ skincare line is an extension of the wellness brand they both launched in 2021.
She added that she “can’t imagine doing it with anyone else” except her husband Idris.
Sabrina was born and raised in Canada, but is of Somali descent, which reveals the reasons behind the creation of the border.
“Growing up, I always thought there was nothing that addressed my unique skin care concerns, especially when it comes to having melanin-rich skin,” she said.
“So things like post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Just finding products that address it holistically, rather than solving the problem after the fact,” says Sabrina.

Zorg: ‘Black consumers really care about the planet. They care about the luxury of their products without having to pay exorbitant prices or only use good quality ingredients that we think we made,” she explained.
‘We are primarily looking at how we can inhibit the overproduction of melanin. So we make antioxidants, we make anti-inflammatories,” she said.
‘There are so many great ingredients on the (African) continent that are so popular that I saw my mother using them when I was growing up. So I’m just trying to get all that in there,” Sabrina adds
Sabrina adds that she and Idris wanted to have “minimal impact on the planet” with “maximum” results with their skincare products.
