Lucy Rose

Lucy Rose sells organic natural skin care products and makeup. The company was set up in 2006 by a professional beauty therapist who had become increasingly despondent about the harmful ingredients that so many skincare brands seem to include in their products. The only products that get through to Lucy Rose pass the test by being either organic or natural and free from all those nasties.

GOOD INGREDIENTS

First port of call when visiting the site should be the page on the ingredients to avoid, a glossary of all the harmful chemicals that can be found in so many skincare brands. This makes startling reading as you come across chemicals that are not only used in skincare products but in anti-freeze for cars, oven cleanining products and so on. The products that make it through to Lucy Rose are free from parabens, petrochemicals and SLS/SLES.

Lucy Rose has a small but carefully sourced range of organic skincare that include some well known names, Lavera and Green People, Essentially Yours and Natural Elements, voted by Today's Therapist as 'the world's most natural effective skincare.' With products for all the family including nail care from Zoya, baby skincare and suncare, dental care and natural deodorants, along with free UK p&p, the products available are not only effective but affordable as well. The company also stocks a range of organic and natural make-up that nourishes, protects and conditions the skin.

Eczema and psoriasis sufferers might like to try Essentially Yours therapeutic bath oil, a gentle organic blend specially formulated to help increase the moisture content of the skin making it more flexible.

For those wishing to trial products before buying, Lucy Rose offers a free samples service. Choose the type of product (hair, body, face) and skin type and they will send you some samples, subject to availability.
