About me….
My name is Holly – and I am the founder of The Ilex Wood.
Let me tell you a little bit about myself and the ethos behind the products I create.
I am a strong believer in the powers of plants and create my own herbal oil infusions that make the base of my products.
I believe that simplicity is key when it comes to skin care, an effective and quality product with no more than 10 natural ingredients with no padding or water can be created; to form an active concentrated end product with desired results.
Ever since I was young, I have been obsessed with nature. Growing up in the countryside and being a farmer’s daughter meant I spent a great deal of time outdoors, learning about the power of plants.
Unable to find any purely natural products in the stores (many market themselves as natural but check the labels and look out for the cheap padding and water (aqua)!), I took to creating my own using the plant knowledge I gained to create effective and luxurious skin care products.
Compact design with sustainable packaging
All of The Ilex Wood products are packed in sustainable packaging (either glass or aluminium), even plastic is avoided, and for transportation to fulfilment centres in recycled cardboard boxes.
The products are all natural using waterless technology, with no man made chemicals or petrochemicals, no palm oil and no damaging the environment artificial chemicals.
All natural. Plant based. Sustainable beauty. With Vegan versions of every product. All of our products are water-free, so you will discover a highly concentrated product.
You need only use a tiny amount and will find each of the products simply glides on, absorbs easily, covers a surprisingly large area and keeps skin hydrated for a very long time.
All of our concentrated salves, creams, balms and serums uses less space, resources and packaging yet goes a remarkably long way. With absolutely no artificial chemicals, no plastic packaging and no palm oil.
Natural beauty that does not cost the earth.
