How Obvs Was Born...

Born 29/05/2021 weighing approx 30g each.

My journey began after enduring two heart-breaking miscarriages, following two rounds of IVF, just before the first COVID lockdown. The hormonal changes wreaked havoc on my skin, leaving me plagued with adult acne. My self-esteem plummeted, and I grew tired of wasting money on ineffective "organic" or "vegan" skincare products. Determined to find a solution, I embarked on my own research and set out to create something that truly works.

Thus, The Intensive Skin Recovery Cream was born. After countless failures, I developed a formulation that miraculously cleared my acne within a week. Since then, it has transformed the lives of many. Not only does it combat acne and psoriasis, but it also provides relief for eczema and even nappy rash.

Being both scientifically inclined and a free spirit at heart, I knew that when my friends and family encouraged me to launch this venture, it had to embody the principles of being organic, biodegradable, vegan, and sustainable... Obvs!

Obvs Skincare is my precious creation, in which I invested our savings from the third round of IVF. I sincerely hope that you cherish it as much as I do.

What if your biggest heartbreak led you to your true purpose? This is the raw, real story behind Obvs Skincare – and the pain that shaped it. You can listen to a 30min podcast episode by clicking the button below. T/W - it is emosh!

Just amazing

Does exactly what it says on the tin:) Bought this along with the cleanser for my daughter who has quite bad acne. It has totally helped and her skin is clearing. Im going to encourage her now to use this all the time. Amazing results.

WOW

I was recommended this by a friend for my daughter as she struggles with acne. I bought this and my goodness what can I say....her skin is in recovery her spots are disappearing. AMAZING AMAZING

Organic naked moisturiser

This is my go to autumn/winter moisturiser when my skin really suffers with the cold weather and central heating! Leaves my skin feeling hydrated and looking dewy and radiant.

Great soap

Brilliant for my son’s ezcema prone skin! The wooden soap dish looks nice in the bathroom. Long lasting too.

Lynsey, thank you! I’m so happy to hear it’s helping your son’s skin — that’s exactly why I made it. And glad you love the wooden dish too, they look lovely together don’t they? Thank you so much for your review, love Sian x

Beautiful Product

Bought to try and help my babies eczema. Only been using a few days and can already see a difference. Lovely texture and baby is super happy when I’m applying it. Thank you x

Natalie, this is so lovely to read. thank you. I’m so glad your little one’s skin is already showing improvement. The Intensive Skin Recovery Cream really is a bit of magic for sensitive skin. Give that happy baby an extra cuddle from me Love Sian x

Amazing cleanser!!!

I have had acne for as long as I can remember...I have tried a lot of cleansers and moisturisers in that time! I decided to get the Obvs organic cleanser-fragrance free, naked fragrance free moisturiser and intensive skin recovery cream. They all are lovely on my skin! The cleanser is incredible, my face feels so clean afterwards without any irritation or redness! My skin is so much calmer. Ive seen a massive improvement so far and cant wait to try the rosehip oil to try and help with some old scarring. Thank you Sian!🫶🏻

Amy, this is such a lovely review!! thank you. I’m so happy to hear your skin’s feeling calmer and clearer, that’s exactly what we aim for. You’re going to love the Rosehip Oil too, it’s a game changer for scarring. Thanks for sharing your journey (and for trusting me with your skin)

The perfect soap

This little bar comes beautifully packaged, so is ideal for a gift. In our household, we use it for hand washing, it lasts for ages and stays fairly solid, even at the basins used really frequently (though I do use a draining soap dish). It's really pleasant to use, with no fragrance so won't aggravate any skin problems. The water here is quite hard, but it doesn't leave a layer of murk on the basins to clean off as other soaps do. The best bar of soap I've come across.

Faye, this is such a lovely review thank you. I’m so glad you love the soap as much as I do. It’s amazing how something so simple can feel like such a treat, right? Thanks for noticing the little details and for supporting Obvs.

Magic cream

I've been using this cream for over a year now. I started using it as I had started having bad breakouts on my face and nothing helped until I found this cream. I use it daily with the moisturisers and cleanser. I've used it for dry skin, insect bites and many other things. I've recommended it to family and friends. My dad has recently started using it with the moisturiser to help with dry skin patches on his face and neck. I'm so glad I've found Obvs skincare, ot changed my life!!!!

Ahh Liesl, this made my day. I’m so happy our Magic Cream has been such a game changer for you (and now your dad too!). It’s amazing how one little pot can do so much. Thank you for trusting Obvs with your skin — and for spreading the word. You’re part of the Obvs movement now

Love this!

I’m a convert. Can’t believe I ever used anything else! So hydrating and smells divine

Thank you so much Kim and thanks for leaving me a review. I am so happy you love the cleanser and that it feels so hydrating and smells divine. It means a lot to know you would not use anything else now. Love Sian x

Organic cleanser

I wanted a nice cleanser that melted away your make up and oh boy does this do the job- even with waterproof mascara. My face feels clean and glowing after I use it and plus a little goes a long way!

Thank you so much Lynsey and thanks for leaving me a review. I am so happy the cleanser is working so well for you and even taking care of waterproof mascara. I love that it leaves your skin feeling clean and glowing and that a little really does go a long way doesnt it. Love Sian x

So handy

I first used the Organic Balm when I had COVID and my face was so sore and dry from all the nose blowing. It was amazing. So soothing. And gave me so much relief. So handy to have it in a stick form and I was one of the lucky ones to qualify for the "dodgy" tube. Nothing dodgy about this!! Thank you Sian for another amazing product.

Thank you so much AJ, I’m so glad the balm brought you comfort and relief, Love Sian xxx

Lovely!

This feels really lovely on your skin. It just sinks in and isn’t greasy, I’m very impressed.

Thank you so much, Samantha. I’m so happy to hear you’re enjoying it and that it’s sinking in nicely without feeling greasy. Thank you for your review, I appreciate you! Love Sian x

Organic Balm

My job requires me to wash my hands a lot, so I got a large tin of this balm to act as a barrier and help sooth the eczema on my hands.

I found the balm non-irritating and it leaves a protective film.

A soothing product! - and Sian's customer service is second to none! She has never missed replying promptly to a query and this sets her apart from other skincare brands - Thank you very much!

Thank you so much, Caz. I’m so happy to hear the balm has been soothing and protective for your hands, especially with how often you have to wash them. And thank you for your kind words about my customer service, that really means a lot to me. Thank you! Love Sian x

LOVE LOVE LOVE this Product

Ive 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!

SJ, thank you for this lovely review. I’m so glad it’s been working so well for your skin and giving you that glow. It’s amazing to hear it’s helping to lock in moisture, especially through that hot summer (bring back the sun!!!), and that you’re seeing real results. Thank you for your review, love Sian x

Love this fragranced version of the moisturiser

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!

Ahh!!! hSarah Jane, thank you for such a lovely review. I’m so happy to hear the fragranced version has fitted so well into your daily routine and that it’s been so kind to your skin. I love that you keep the mini with you too, it makes me so happy knowing it’s useful on the go as well. Thank you for your lovely review! Love Sian x

Intensive Skin Recovery Cream

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?

Faye, thank you so much for such a beautiful review. It honestly means the world to know the cream has helped with so many things, from heat rash to eczema and even insect bites. I’m so happy it’s brought you relief. And thank you for your kind words about the packaging too! I truly love adding those little touches, so it means a lot to know they’re appreciated. Love Sian x

Magic cream

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!

Oh wow, Lynsey! thank you so much for sharing this It honestly makes me so happy to hear how well the cream has worked for your son. Knowing it’s brought him comfort and helped his skin heal means the world to me! This is exactly why I created it. Thank you for trusting me with his skin Love Sian x

Organic Cleanser - Fragrance Free

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.

Hi Faye

Thank you so much for your lovely review! I’m so glad the Organic Cleanser is leaving your skin feeling comfortable and soft. I love hearing how simple and enjoyable your routine feels with just a spritz of rosewater, a touch of rosehip oil, and the moisturiser, perfect and easy :)

Thanks again for sharing your experience, it really means a lot. Love Sian xx

Magic! ✨

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&not 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% ❤️

Hi Chloe

thank you so much for this review it genuinely made me smile hearing how the Skin Recovery Cream and salts have helped your son it’s amazing that his eczema has cleared and he hasn’t had a flare up since I’m so glad they’ve made such a difference it really makes everything worth it

thank you again for sharing your experience and for recommending Obvs it means so much to me! I hope you both keep enjoying happy skin and booboos sorted :) Love Sian xx

Very pleased

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!

Hi Samantha

thank you so much for taking the time to leave this review it honestly means the world to me I know how annoying and sore skin can get around peri-menopause so hearing that the Intensive Skin Recovery Cream is already helping you feel calmer and more comfortable just makes me so happy

thank you again for sharing it and here’s to your skin feeling even better every day, Love Sian xx

Fragrance Free Moisturiser

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.

Faye, thank you so much for sharing your experience in such detail. I’m so happy to hear that the moisturiser is gentle on your skin and that it’s helping both you and your friend. Knowing it’s making a real difference, even on tricky issues like eczema and heat rash, means the world to me. Thank you so so much!

Love Sian

Sunshine in a jar

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🍊

Allyson, what a beautiful review, thank you so much. I love that you’ve described it as sunshine in a jar, that’s exactly how I wanted it to feel. Knowing your skin has never looked better makes all the hard work worth it.

Love Sian x
