"My background has been centred around beauty and my experience leading the marketing for numerous premium beauty brands gave me an insight into how much it actually cost to make these products, how much of a premium brands were charging and how little legislation there was when it came to making claims, particularly within natural and organic beauty. There always seemed to be some kind of consumer compromise; either brands feeling like they have the right to increase the price because the word "organic" was written on the box (sometimes without backing) or the consumer had to compromise on the look, feel ethics and efficacy just to get a lower price point. As a beauty consumer myself, I made it my mission to create a skincare brand for you. Something where no compromise is made. We've gone above and beyond to make certified organic, natural, efficacious products in beautiful and sustainable packaging, but we've made a conscious decision to reduce our margins to make it accessible to all and I'm so pleased that our stockists share this vision with us. We've received such incredible feedback from our customers, which means the world to me as this is exactly why TRUE Skincare was created; to make beautiful, organic products accessible to everyone. Because beauty should be inclusive, not exclusive.”

Our Philosophy
Certified Organic
We are proud to be certified organic by the Soil Association, so that you can instantly recognise us as an organic brand by looking for the logo.
Waterless
As part of our mission to deliver you with honest, effective and ethical skincare, all of the products within the TRUE Skincare range are completely waterless in formulation.
Natural
Where possible, English translations of the ingredients are indicated in brackets on our listings, so you know exactly what is going onto your skin.
Affordable
Elegant and effective skincare doesn’t have to come with a high price tag, so we've made a conscious decision to reduce our profits without compromising on quality.
Cruelty Free
TRUE Skincare products have not, and never will be, tested on animals. We are proud to be a Leaping Bunny approved brand by Cruelty Free International.
Vegan
All of our products are suitable for vegans and our entire supply chain is vegan from start to finish.
Effective
Efficacy of our products is of paramount importance to us, no matter what your skin type. This is why our range contains products to target your specific skincare concerns.
Elegant
We believe that everyone should be proud to have TRUE products on their bathroom shelf, which is why we haven't compromised on the style and quality of our packaging, which is also 90% recyclable.
