Let customers speak for us
from 726 reviewsIve been suing for a couple of months as a morning and evening oil. First time i used it I didn’t notice that it was quite a yellow colour when first applied to the skin. But quickly absorbed and gives a lovely glow. I combine with the mandarin Moisturiser and i have combo post menopausal skin. l think it’s working really well on the crepey skin on my neck too. - -which is an added bonus. For me this is all about making the moisture stay in really dry skin - especially during this really hot summer!
Im really glad there is a frangranced version. I really love this product and use it all over, but primarily every morning for my facial routine. It feels a little oily at first but quickly disappears and I have combo skin after clinical menopause and this is a life saver. I have the mini sample in my handbag (THANK YOU) and use as a hand cream. I combine this with the rose hip oil, never broken out, skin feels gorgeous and makeup goes over really well. LOVE IT!
This little wonder brings rapid relief from both heat rash and eczema, and it's also been used on insect bites, soothing the area and healing it quickly. I'm delighted that there are no perfumes use, as even organic essential oils can be a bit of a problem sometimes. Thank you, Sian. Just as an aside, every order I have made has been beautifully packaged, with a gift too, the contents have arrived in perfect condition and I appreciate the hand-written notes. How many companies can top that?
In the words of my 9 year old son ‘this cream is magic!’ We had been battling with his eczema for a long time and I wanted to find a natural alternative to the petroleum based creams we had been using. I stumbled upon the Obvs page on Instagram and I thought we could try it out. After using the skin recovery cream for a short time the eczema on his arms is completely cleared up and it has calmed the skin down on the backs of his knees. His skin looks sooo much better and less itchy for him! I can’t thank you enough Sian, this cream truly is magic!
This gorgeous balm leaves my dry, slightly sensitive skin feeling super-comfortable, clean and soft. A spritz of rosewater, then the serum and moisturiser and I'm done. Easy.
My son unfortunately developed eczema. Straight away I started applying the skin recovery cream (which is also magic so highly recommend!) &ordered the skin recovery salts. I can’t even put into words what a life changer these salts are for his skin! He has it in every bath¬ only has it completely cleared his eczema up, he hasn’t had a flare up since!! Which is amazing news for my son but unfortunately bad news for obvs as it means we don’t need as much of the cream anymore as it’s rarely used apart from his booboos or my acne flare ups these days! Thank you so much Sian for your incredible help! Highly recommend to all! Even if you don’t have skin problems you should still give it a go 100% ❤️
Im peri menopausal and over the last year my skin has changed a lot. I keep getting patches of really dry skin and spots and it gets quite sore. I’ve tried lots of different creams and serums but nothing makes it better. I saw a video about the intensive recovery cream and thought I’d give it a go. I’ve been using it for just over a week now and I’m beginning to see a real difference, my skin feels calmer and not so sore. I think I’ve finally found the solution!
Can't tell you how good these products are! The intensive and the naked moisturiser have finally calmed my skin. It feels stronger and doesn't flare up red. I've used so many products in the past which have all been for soothing and calming sensitive skin. But finally this is it! Simple ingredients and the best formulation. Also on Holiday this was the best for insect bites and heat rash! It really is a miracle cream and was thoroughly put to the test. If you find the cream a little grainy just warm it up in your hands. It is natural so you have to understand that the heat will effect its viscosity. Thank you for creating the best products! Looking forward to my next order which includes the rosehip oil as well as everything else!
I'm 60 and have dry and dehydrated skin, which always feels taut even sloshing water on it and is sometimes reddened when using fragranced products, so this moisturiser is ideal for me. It's a real pleasure to use, causes no redness or irritation, leaves a lovely matte finish, and - best of all - my skin feels soft and comfortable. I bought a tub for a friend, who has been using it on his hands, which have occasional eczema problems. A very sore and bleeding crack on one finger is now healing after one week of use, in combination with the Recovery Cream. I've lately had problems with my hands too, though in my case it's heat rash, having to wear gloves a lot. Highly recommended by us both because Obvs products work.
Love the rosehip oil. Loved the personalised packaging too. Look forward to my next purchase. Thank you.
What better way to nourish & respect your skin than to start the day with rose hip oil and morning mandarin moisture cream . The smell within you open the lid is divine and my skin has never looked better🍊
This cream is fantastic for spots, cuts, itchy skin, insect bites
It helps heal spots quicker
Won’t be without this cream
What a lovely product. Smells amazing. Feels rich but light. Definitely my favourite night product. Skin feels very moisturised. Love it.
I've used the gentle mask weekly for four weeks so I've given it a good go now. First off, it's really easy to mix (just like making a cocoa), feels comfortable on, rinses easily and leaves my dry and dehydrated skin feeling clean and soft but not taut or reddened The oats in the mix provide a very gentle exfoliation either on application or just before it's rinsed off, after dampening the skin under the shower. As I've got a huge bottle of Rose Water, I've been mixing it with that, rather than water. The dinky bowl is really lovely and the spoon is ideal, but for me, the brush is a little more fiddly than using my own fingers (and the varnish on the brush handle has cracked a little so needs to be kept out of water when cleaning the bristles, obvs). I'll be putting an order in for another mask - can it come in a bigger glass jar? Overall, lovely clean ingredients which I don't need a Phd in Chemistry to understand, and it works, so highly recommended!
Looking for a product that leaves my skin feeling soft and has a pleasant fragrance.
One that is ethically sourced and doesn’t harm the planet or nature
I am very pleased with my purchase and would purchase this product again
