What's the difference between the Intensive Skin Recovery Cream and the Organic Naked Moisturiser?
Watch this video to find out - Watch Now.
Help! My cream has melted!
The creams are oil-based, therefore do not require preservatives, and have a very long shelf life - I just ask you to please keep them in a cool and dry place. As with all natural butters that are not chemically refined, they are prone to melting in direct sunlight. If this does happen - don't sweat! Just pop it in the fridge, give it a mix and it will be good to go!
Is Obvs Skincare Certified Organic?
Certainly are! Obvs Skincare is certified Soil Association COSMOS Organic. This is a prestigious achievement in which we are extremely proud of. You can read more about the Soil Association's strict policies here.
What does organic actually mean?
Organic products are made using organically grown produce that does not get contaminated with pesticides, herbicides, or other toxic chemicals. This means that organic skincare is much safer, avoiding harmful substances that often aggravate the skin. They are also GMO-Free!
Why should I switch to organic?
Making the switch to organic can be life changing for many. Many decide to go organic when they’re pregnant, have sensitive skin, or because they’re fed up with over-the-counter products. Organic is more natural and avoids harsh chemicals. Thus, you will no longer suffer with skin irritation and potential health problems caused by inorganic cosmetics.
Organic products are free from toxic chemicals that affect soil health and ecosystems. Better yet, organic farming completely eliminates the use of synthetic substances. These substances are very damaging to soil and wildlife.
Is Obvs Skincare Certified Vegan?
Yes! In fact, Obvs Skincare is certified Vegan by The Vegan Society themselves! To learn more about their strict guidelines click here
Why should I use vegan products?
Vegan skincare is much less likely to irritate the skin thanks to using fewer but higher quality ingredients. Vegan means that no ingredients within the product are made from animals or their by-products. This includes things such as honey and beeswax. Vegan skincare is typically not tested on animals. There are exceptions in certain countries, however, where requirements are different to those of the UK. Obvs Skincare DOES NOT test on animals and never will! We are Leaping Bunny Approved.
Do you use biodegradable packaging?
All Obvs packaging is plastic-free and is as minimal as possible. It has been designed to pair well with our products, keeping them fresh and secure while being completely biodegradable.
In fact, Obvs Skincare is the first Soil Association COSMOS Organic and Vegan Society certified brand to use this new, innovative plant-based packaging (15ml and 50ml). Made from wood pulp and plant polymers, the pots are 100% biodegradable and biodegrade just like a piece of wood would! Even the labels are free from any plastic laminate. The glue and ink are biodegrable and vegan. The ribbon used on the gift sets is made from wood pulp, and again 100% biodegrade. You will not find any plastic or greenwashing anywhere here.
The large 100ml's are made from recyclable tin.
Do you test on animals?
Never! This is something we are completely against. We would never test our products on animals and strive to be an ethical business. All raw ingredient suppliers are proactively monitored to ensure our products continue to adhere to the Leaping Bunny criteria. You will not find our products in China! Obvs Skincare is Leaping Bunny approved so you know our products are ethical and are made with love.
Obvs Skincare believes that skincare products should be cruelty free. We are proud to be Leaping Bunny approved. A global programme, Leaping Bunny requires cruelty free standards over and above legal requirements.
All of our own brand skincare and personal care products are approved under the Cruelty Free International Leaping Bunny programme, the internationally recognisable gold standard for cruelty free products. We adhere to a fixed cut-off date policy and proactively monitor our suppliers to ensure that our products continue to adhere to the Leaping Bunny criteria. Our supplier monitoring system is also independently audited.
For more information about Cruelty Free International, Leaping Bunny and Leaping Bunny criteria, please visit www.crueltyfreeinternational.org
Do you use Palm Oil?
We do not use palm oil here at Obvs Skincare. It contributes to deforestation and animal endangerment on a global scale, which is something we do not want involvement in. Many products contain palm oil, but many vegans and those who are environmentally-conscious choose to avoid it.
How long does it take for the creams to work?
Don’t we all wish everything happened in an instant? Typically, when it comes to our skincare, it can take around 4-6 weeks before you see improvements. This is because on average, we have a 28 day skin cell turnover rate. Often, you can see results sooner, but it’s best to wait before judging. The Organic Intensive Skin Recovery Cream typically starts showing improvements in just 24 hours depending on the skin issue.
Can the creams be used on oily skin?
Sian has developed the moisturisers explicitly tailored for oily skin. As an individual with oily and acne-prone skin, she applies the Organic Cleanser followed by the Morning Mandarin Moisturiser in the morning and Evening Lavender at night. These moisturisers boast excellent absorption properties, and only a small amount is required. Although counterintuitive, utilising oil-based products on oily skin is highly effective. Typically, water-based cleansers can extract the skin's natural oils, leading to overproduction of sebum (oil) as a form of compensation. Addressing oil with oil is a more effective strategy.
Are your products safe for pregnant or nursing individuals and babies?
Our products are meticulously crafted with organic ingredients, ensuring their suitability for use on pregnant or nursing individuals, as well as babies and children.
We prioritise your safety by avoiding the use of harsh chemicals, and every ingredient in our formulations is derived from nature.
However, please note that products containing organic essential oils should not be used on babies under 3 months old or individuals with specific allergies to natural constituents like Citral, Citronellol, Limonene, or Linalol.
For expectant mothers, babies, and children, we highly recommend the following products:
Intensive Skin Recovery Cream:
Effectively addresses irritated skin, providing optimal relief.
Organic Naked Moisturiser:
Specifically designed to combat dry skin resulting from hormonal fluctuations during pregnancy, while maintaining the softness of your baby's delicate skin. Also beneficial for cradle cap prone scalps.
Organic Fragrance-Free Cleanser:
A daily essential for expectant mothers, this cleanser effectively removes impurities, ensuring a clear and healthy complexion.
Organic Balm:
Experience the perfect nipple balm solution, eliminating the need to wipe off chafing nipples before your baby latches. Provides nourishment and protection.
Organic Oat Soap:
Crafted for new-borns, this gentle and unscented soap preserves the natural and fresh baby scent. Its mild formulation ensures a soothing and nurturing bathing experience.
Trust in the scientific expertise behind our products to provide you with the utmost care and effectiveness for you and your baby's skincare needs.
Are your products suitable for pets?
The Intensive Skin Recovery Cream is not particularly suitable for dogs as it contains a higher dose of zinc oxide which can be toxic to dogs in extremely large quantities if consumed. Check out the Organic Balm For Dogs instead.
When will I receive my order?
All orders will be sent via Royal Mail. Sian formulates, creates and packages all of your orders by hand. Your order will be sent out 1-3 working days after purchase. Royal Mail should send you updates along the way, but if you have any issues don’t hesitate to get in touch.
How long will my products last?
As every product is handmade in small batches by Sian Louise, freshness is guaranteed. Our products do have a 12-month shelf life. This information can be found on the label of all products. A little goes a very long way, as the saying goes “buy cheap, buy twice” – this isn’t the case with our products – each will last you at least twice as longer than any cheaper, unnatural, water based products on the market.
Why are organic products more expensive than regular products?
Our products are highly concentrated, meaning a little goes a long way, so you will save money in the long run. Plus, by choosing organic skincare, you can rest assured that the ingredients we use are sourced ethically and sustainably, with fair wages paid to those involved. We never compromise on quality, using only the best natural and raw ingredients available. Sure, it may cost a little more, but you are worth investing in and your skin will thank you for it. Try Obvs Skincare today and experience the difference!
Do you offer collection?
I am afraid not. Our purpose built lab is situated in my family garden. My husband and I have decided that it is not practical to offer customer collections from our family home.

Let customers speak for us
from 563 reviewsExcellent for stubborn patches of eczema!
Best skin products on the market
Best skin product we have used for our daughter
Highly recommended this product, it feels gentle yet luxurious on the skin. Using this combined with the intensive recovery cream has made such a difference to my skin. It feels clearer and more comfortable. Thank you!
My baby had a nasty nappy rash that just wouldn’t go away. After a few applications of this cream, the rash cleared up so quickly. I’m so grateful!
Lovely cream that feels silky and nourishing! Lovely relief from my eczema patches that flare up especially as the weather is starting to cool
Really pleased with the Obvs Organic Balm. Reassuring to know that it’s completely safe, not leaching nasty chemicals into my skin and works beautifully. I've had a big wake up call since following Obvs… initially I decided to try Obvs face creams because they were vegan and not animal tested and now I’m a convert because I trust the safety and origins of the products. The Organic Balm is just another brilliant alternative to buying products that are less than kind to my skin and the environment. With Obvs, every important ethical box is ticked in my opinion! Thank you Obvs. 🐰🌱🌍
Lovely product and gorgeous smell! I use it last as part of my night time routine and it just seals in my treatments and moisture! Beautiful whipped texture and my skin just loves it. Will definitely be buying the larger pot for my next order!
I'm not a skincare girlie at all and i never thought I'd find something that would change my mind but I'm absolutely in love with this cleanser. Not only does it leave my skin looking hydrated and healthy it also feels really luxurious and is gentle enough on my skin that i can use it everyday.
I actually do not think I could live without this soap now! So I had been really struggling with Pompholyx eczema to my hands, I was resorting to steroid cream but even that was not helping. I can honestly say that my hands have never been so clear for this long! Keeps my eczema at bay and doesn’t dry my hands!!! As a nurse I take it to work as the soap provided dries my hands really bad! Honestly I am so so thankful that I came across your site xx
Lovely dish, looks so stylish on the side of the sink! Beautiful paired with the Obvs Soap
I love it's using imperfectly moulded soap - yet the ingredients are sooo good! In this bag the soap gives my skin a good exfoliate in he shower. I love it so much I've bought lots as gifts for friends!
Such a lovely soap and it has really helped calm down my acne.
I loved this product and it really helped clear up my skin, my family gave me multiple compliments on how good my skin looked just a few days after I started using the intense skin recovery cream. Would definitely recommend!!
Brilliant cream! Settled very red and itchy eczema on my 16month old boy in 3 days. A little goes along way so very pleased with the product! Thankyou! A great alternative to using steroids!
