Why We Made It

"I've always believed beautiful lashes should never come at the expense of healthy skin.

Too many lash serums rely on hormone disruptors and prostaglandins that can cause unwanted side effects. I wanted to create something better. A formula powered by advanced plant science that works in harmony with your natural lash cycle, caring for the delicate eye area while delivering real, visible results.

Lashful combines seven targeted actives with conditioning skincare ingredients to help lashes look longer, stronger and healthier over time, so you can enjoy beautifully defined lashes with total confidence."

Susie, Founder & CEO

The Philosophy Behind The Cleanse

“I created this cleanser to turn an everyday routine into a moment of pure indulgence. It was inspired by conversations with incredible women navigating perimenopause and menopause (a time when skin can naturally start to feel drier and require extra nourishment). I wanted the very first step to feel as beautiful as it is effective: a formula that melts away makeup effortlessly, doubles as a mindful facial massage, and leaves skin feeling supple, nourished, and renewed.

For me, it’s more than cleansing; it’s cocooning your skin in luxury. Take a moment to pause, breathe, massage it in, and enjoy the sensorial ritual.”

Founder & CEO

Our Most Advanced Formula

"Embracing the latest in green science and breakthrough technology, Eye Lift is our most advanced formula yet. Inspired by my mum who, at 65, experienced fine lines, puffiness, and sensitivity, this indulgent cream delivers comfort without compromise. Free from retinal to protect the delicate eye area, it’s powered by 11 potent actives that visibly firm, smooth, and sculpt – promising unrivalled results and restored confidence from the very first use."

Founder & CEO

Refill. Reuse. Recycle.

Did You Know Eye Work is refillable?

To switch your refill:

  • Tap the ZAMAC tip gently on a hard surface to loosen it.
  • Rinse and dry the tip, giving it a gentle polish with a bamboo bud.
  • Align TROPIC on the applicator with the back of your new tube.
  • Push until it clicks into place - and you’re ready to roll again.

Remember to recycle your used tube and lid.

To recycle your ZAMAC tip please take to your local scrap metal recycler or local recycling centre.

The Story Behind Our Smoothing Cleanser

"When I first set out to create a cleanser, I knew it had to do more than just remove makeup. I wanted it to feel like a moment of calm at the start and end of your day; a gentle ritual that would leave your skin soft, balanced, and cared for, no matter your skin type.

That’s how Smoothing Cleanser was born. Powered by nourishing jojoba oil and soothing aloe vera, it’s been part of my daily routine for over a decade and it’s still the product I’m most proud of".

Founder & CEO

Why Jojoba Oil Is Your Skin's Best Friend

At the heart of our Smoothing Cleanser is jojoba oil: a golden, skin-loving liquid that closely mimics your skin's own natural oils. That means it deeply cleansers without disrupting your delicate moisture barrier. Rich in vitamins E and B-complex, jojoba oil gently melts away makeup, sunscreen, and daily build-up, while keeping your skin nourished and balanced. It's non-comedogenic (so it won't clog pores), making it ideal for all skin types, from dry and sensitive to oily and blemish-prone. We chose jojoba for its versatility and skin compatibility, but you'll stay for the silky-soft glow it leaves behind.

To return your five Innerbottle® balloons and claim your £10 voucher, complete the form below.  

Bronze

Use the pointed end of the Precision Face Brush to sweep your bronzer along your cheekbones, blending outward for a naturally lifted look.

Blush

With the same end, apply your blush to the apples of your cheeks, blending out and up for a fresh, radiant flush.

Highlight

Switch to the domed end of the Precision Face Brush to apply your highlighter. Sweep a soft C from your brow bone to the tops of your cheeks.

Define The Eyes

Take the Expert Blending Brush to blend your bronzer into your eye creases, creating a gorgeous depth that ties your look together.

Eyeshadow

Use the 3-in-1 Eye Brush to apply your shadow across the lid, blending outward for a soft finish. Add highlighter to the inner corners for instant brightness.

Liner & Brows

For subtle definition, use the angled tip of the 3-in-1 Eye Brush to sweep your Brow Boss along the outer lash line. Then, shape and fill your brows for a naturally defined look.

All-Over Warmth

Finish with the Kabuki Brush, sweeping your bronzer across your forehead and jawline for a seamless, sun-kissed glow.

The Story Behind Finishing Touch

"While many setting sprays rely on synthetic film-formers that can contribute to microplastic pollution, Finishing Touch is powered by plant-derived polymers for a cleaner, more sustainable alternative. Infused with natural extracts and antioxidants, it forms a breathable, flexible shield that locks in makeup for up to 16 hours while enhancing skin radiance."

<p>Founder & CEO</p>

Founder & CEO

The Story Behind Foot Smooth

“Feet work harder than almost any other part of the body, yet they’re often the most neglected. This scrub was created to turn a forgotten step into a moment of care, combining salt and enzymes to actively renew rough skin while peppermint and eucalyptus reset tired feet and senses. ​

​It’s about restoring softness, freshness and confidence from the ground up, without needing a salon visit.”

Founder & CEO

The Story Behind Our CC Cream

"During my pregnancy, I knew life was about to get a whole lot busier, and my beauty routine would need to keep up. I wanted one product that could do it all: protect my skin, even my tone, provide breathable coverage, and help me feel confident, so, I created this multi-tasking must-have.

It's my daily go-to, and I hope it becomes yours too!"

<p>Founder & CEO</p>

Founder & CEO

The Story Behind Our Butter Tint

"We’re all craving more versatile, multifunctional products that simplify our routines. So, we set about creating this effortless tint that instantly enhances your natural beauty, while being fool-proof to apply. Just swipe onto lips, dab onto cheeks, and glide onto eyes for a gorgeously put-together look, without the hassle."

<p>Founder & CEO</p>

Founder & CEO
