My Ingredients

I'm often asked what goes into my skincare, and it's honestly my favourite question. After thirty years as a clinical aromatherapist, I've learned that a formula is only ever as good as the ingredients in it — so I choose every single one for a real, skin-loving reason, never just because it sounds pretty on a label. Here are some of the ingredients I reach for again and again, and why.

Rosehip Oil — Rich in essential fatty acids and vitamin A, rosehip helps regenerate skin cells and soften the look of scars, fine lines and sun damage. It's the heart of my Multivitamin Serum.

Hyaluronic Acid — A moisture magnet that holds many times its weight in water, plumping and smoothing the skin. It's what gives my Yummie Moisturiser its lovely, cushioned feel.

Squalane — Gentle, lightweight and beautifully compatible with your skin, squalane replenishes the barrier and locks moisture in without a hint of grease.

Baobab Seed Oil — An intensely nourishing African oil, high in vitamins A and F, that cleanses without stripping. It's the reason my Nurturing Cleansing Oil leaves skin soft rather than tight.

Seabuckthorn & Evening Primrose Oils — Deeply nourishing, omega-rich oils that feed and comfort dry, depleted skin.

Vitamins A, C & E — My little trio of antioxidants: vitamin A to renew, C to brighten, and E to protect and repair.

Jojoba Oil — So like our skin's own oils that it balances rather than clogs — lovely for hands, face, and even oily skin.

Tea Tree — Naturally antibacterial and antifungal, my go-to for calming blemishes and problem skin.

Rosewater — Soothing, anti-inflammatory and gently astringent, it settles redness and refines the look of pores.

Frankincense, Neroli & Lavender Essential Oils — Chosen not just for their beautiful natural scent, but to calm, rebalance and support your skin's own microbiome.

Shea, Coconut & Mango Butters — Rich, natural butters that wrap dry skin in deep, velvety moisture.

Everything I make is plant-based, cruelty-free and handmade in small batches here in the west of Ireland — with skin-loving ingredients, and nothing harsh. If you'd ever like to know exactly what's in a particular product, or which would suit your skin, just drop me an email. I'm always happy to help.
