It’s not just about manufacturing a great product and selling it. We have the ability to re-educate people about TOXIC HARSH CHEMICALS and their effects.
We have chosen as a responsible company to promote a positive reaction towards people and the planet for now and the future.
I'm sure you will be happy with our products, and as a bonus, knowing that you have "done your bit" Steve Woodhouse, Director "OSO".
We are a team of scientists with more than 30 years of scientific pharmaceutical and cosmetic experience, believing passionately that the majority of allergies and skin complaints are the direct result of the harsh and synthetic chemicals found in many cosmetics and toiletries.
Our products are made in the UK in small batches to ensure freshness. Our products use solely natural organic plant and vegetable derived ingredients to give maximum therapeutic benefits to the skin.
In this industry, if a product is labelled ‘natural’ or 'organic' it needs only one such ingredient in it to use this title. Our range is completely natural and ‘harsh chemical free’ in fact we were the first manufacturer in the UK, possibly, the world to work with only 99-100 per cent natural ingredients, including certified organic oils.
Our formulations are not made to simply get an organic certified logo, but to perform well, after all, what’s the point in using products if they simply don’t work? The fact they out-perform any other brands - organic, chemical or medical on every count shows just how different we are.
Our products are especially effective for anti-ageing, dry skin, acne, eczema, psoriasis and all other skin conditions.
We also develop upon traditional organic products which often use natural ingredients that are too heavy and block the absorbance of oxygen - a key component in cell regeneration. If you have tried other organic products, you will appreciate how our products feel and smell superior to many others.
What’s more, our products are affordable! Our range is cost-effective because we have not spent vast amounts of money marketing the product or paying for the design of colourful, expensive packaging.
As a group of cosmetic scientists we are not taken in by 'fancy names' of expensive ingredients just to boost product sales, we use some of the most expensive oils in the world but we know when to use them for therapeutic benefits not marketing hype!
Testing on Animals
Our products and the raw materials used to make them, are not tested on animals.All finished cosmetic products cannot be tested by law on animals, but the raw materials still can. Unfortunately, this only applies within the EU.
The BUAV (The Leaping Bunny) logo on our products is only given to companies who do not test the finished product and the basic raw materials on animals.
Vegan & Vegetarian
All of our products are fully registered with the Vegan & Vegetarian societies.
Allergies
We provide a specially formulated fragrance free range of products for customers with over-sensitive skin and suffering from conditions such as rosacea.
The ingredients are plant based and contain Aloe Vera extract – working to calm down the skin over a few months, and in many cases, restore it back to normal. We do not use nut oils in these products but buy our vital oils from factories where nut oils may be processed, so always patch test first. Certified Organic Ingredients
We aim to source our raw materials from companies with approved organic certification, such as the Soil Association and EcoCert. Our vegetable and plant extracts are also organically derived from certified sources.
Halal Our products are suitable for those following Halal as they do not contain alcohol or animal ingredients. Environmental Issues
At least 1.6 billion tons of chemicals from shampoos alone are fed down the drains every year in the UK. As our products are all plant derived and water soluble they break up easily and are kinder to the environmental cycle, without adding to pollution levels.
We also operate a recycling policy of re-using all boxes and components wherever possible.
Summary
The most advanced cosmetic scientists in the UK, who only work with organic and harsh, chemical free formulations (perhaps, the first to do so?)
This is the application of over 30 years of formulating and molecule engineering in skin products with the result - the most advanced, effective products you will ever use. There is no other range of products which smell, feel and work like ours try them and see.
PhD scientists who are pharmaceutical trained in molecule sciences, metallurgists, and formulating chemistry. We aren't talking aromatherapy here, we are at the forefront of product development in the arena of natural products which have a huge impact. Leaders not followers!
Cosmetology: the application of the cosmetic science with beauty industry expertise and the dermatology of how this impacts on anti-ageing and skin problems.
Alternative medical effects: The understanding of how such plant extracts have a huge effect and impact on our lives with preventative health benefits from natural ingredients.
Harsh chemicals: We were the first to highlight the damaging effects that can come from chemicals over 10 years ago and their impact on us and the planet.
Our eco impact is controlled so we don’t pollute the earth with chemicals and unnecessary packing.
