About Us
Composed with Precision. Performance through Craft.
We’re a small Irish skincare house crafting bio-compatible formulations that deliver measurable results through selected ingredients and artisanal precision.
Our approach is deliberately considered: botanicals selected for proven efficacy, low-heat infusion methods that preserve potency, and formulations refined through months of iteration before earning their batch number. Each composition is developed for those who recognize the difference between marketing claims and genuine performance.
We believe skin deserves formulations that work with its biology, not against it. Whether maintaining skin resilience, addressing visible concerns, or seeking clinical-level results through botanical expertise, Ossie offers batch-crafted solutions composed in limited quantities in our Dungarvan atelier.
This is performance skincare that respects both your intelligence and investment—where every texture transformation is intentional, every botanical inclusion is measured, and every batch tells the story of its careful creation.
Heritage in Every Jar
What began in my grandmother’s kitchen in Spain, continues in our Irish atelier, where centuries-old Castilian traditions meet advanced formulation expertise.
We are formulators who understand that skin responds to precision. Every ingredient—whether botanical extract, lipid complex, or active compound—earns its place through measurable performance. Every texture undergoes refinement until it delivers both immediate comfort and lasting results.
Our approach serves those who understand that visible firmness, sustained hydration, and barrier restoration come from formulations that respect skin’s biology. Who invest in their skin with intention and expect results that match that investment.
This is where batch numbers trace to specific harvests. Where each formula represents years of refinement before release. Where transparency means knowing exactly what touches your skin and why it works.
Performance through patience. Results through precision.
Our Promise
What You Can Always Expect From Ossie Naturals
Each Ossie formulation embodies our commitment to transparency and measurable results. When you choose Ossie, you’re investing in skincare where every decision—from ingredient selection to batch size—serves performance.
These are the principles that guide every decision we make, from formulation to the moment our products reach your skin.
Ingredients You Can Actually Understand
Organic, unrefined botanicals compose the heart of each formulation. Traditional extraction methods preserve what matters. Nothing decorative, nothing trendy. Every ingredient chosen for what it does, not what it claims. Complete transparency—because expertise has nothing to hide.
Formulations Built for Excellence
Three timelines guide every formula: immediate comfort upon application, visible refinement within weeks, sustained skin health through continued use. Most formulations never see daylight. The few that do have earned their place through an alchemy of performance and patience. Your skin knows the difference.
Heritage Meets Modern Understanding
Time-tested botanical methods meet contemporary skin science. This convergence creates formulations that work with your skin's own intelligence—supporting its natural barrier function while delivering visible refinement.
The House Standard
We release nothing prematurely. Formulations mature through seasons of quiet observation—how morning light reveals texture, how skin drinks them in at nightfall, how they perform through weather and time. What reaches you has already lived a full life in our house. Only the exceptional survive this patience.
Ethical Without Announcement
Never tested on animals. This isn't a marketing position—it's baseline integrity. Beautiful formulations require no compromise on compassion. Some standards need no explanation.
The Protective Care of Ossie
Ossie means "divine protection" in Irish usage. Every formula honours this meaning—strengthening your skin's natural barriers, supporting its inherent resilience, preserving the delicate balance between nourishment and protection. This is care that guards what matters
Limited by Design
We don't scale to meet demand—we maintain standards that matter more for your skin. Fresh formulations preserve botanical potency. Quality has its own timeline. This is craft.
Preserved in Amber Glass
Amber glass filters light with precision—blocking wavelengths that degrade, allowing those that preserve. Your formulation stays true—colours remain rich, textures stay perfect, botanical potency preserved. The glass itself becomes part of our formula's integrity.
The Integrity of Materials
We work with ingredients in their purest form. Organic, unrefined botanicals in their most natural form whenever possible. Our infusions are made using low-temperature extraction, or by maceration in a patient process that preserves the essentials and enhances the botanical properties.
Temperature is important. Time is important. The quality of what goes in determines the end result. We select raw materials that arrive with their integrity intact and handle them using methods that respect that integrity. No shortcuts, no accelerants, no compromises.
The result of this patience is formulas that feel different. Textures that respond to the warmth of your skin. Aromas that come from the materials themselves, and serve a purpose. This is what happens when you let ingredients speak for themselves—true bio-lipid formulas that mimic your skin’s essence while enhancing its natural capabilities.
"
Your skin has its own wisdom—when we honour its natural intelligence and nourish it with pure ingredients, we create the foundation for radiant beauty that reveals your skin’s inherent strength, luminosity, and timeless elegance.
Preserved in Amber Glass
Why Amber Glass? Performance Through Protection.
When formulating our products, the vessel matters as much as what it contains. Amber glass represents our commitment to preserving botanical potency and delivering measurable results.
The Science of Preservation
Amber glass blocks 90-95% of UV radiation through iron and sulfur compounds integrated into the glass structure. This selective light filtration prevents photodegradation—the breakdown of active compounds when exposed to light. For formulations rich in antioxidants, essential oils, and botanical extracts, this protection translates directly to maintained efficacy.
Studies demonstrate vitamin C serums in amber glass retain potency three times longer than those in clear containers. Essential oils maintain their therapeutic properties. Botanical extracts preserve their bioactive compounds. This isn’t an aesthetic choice—it’s performance preservation.
Chemical Integrity
Glass is chemically inert. Unlike plastic containers that can leach plasticisers or react with essential oils, glass maintains absolute barrier integrity. No migration, no interaction, no compromise. Your formulation remains exactly as crafted, from first application to last.
The impermeable nature of glass also prevents moisture ingress and oxidation—two primary causes of product degradation. Combined with light protection, this creates optimal preservation conditions for our unrefined, organic ingredients.
Measurable Benefits
- Extended Potency: Active ingredients maintain efficacy throughout the product’s lifespan
- Texture Stability: Formulations retain their intended melt point and absorption rate
- Scent Preservation: Natural aromatic compounds remain true without oxidation
- Colour Integrity: Botanical ingredients maintain their natural hues
Sustainable by Design
Amber glass is infinitely recyclable without quality degradation. Each jar can be repurposed, recycled, or returned to the glass stream indefinitely. This aligns with our commitment to considered production—creating products that perform without environmental compromise.
Performance through protection. Results preserved in amber.
Our Story
Life has a way of inspiring us toward excellence through meaningful moments.
For two decades, I’ve worked as an advanced beauty therapist, understanding skin from both clinical and practical perspectives. But Ossie was born from something more personal—the need for skincare that matched my understanding of what skin truly needs.
Every formula begins with a question: how can we make this more effective? Not through marketing claims, but through genuine innovation. We combine traditional botanical wisdom with modern methods, creating products that deliver clinical-level results through artisanal craft.
In our Dungarvan workshop, each batch is composed by hand. We use low-heat infusions to preserve potency. We select each ingredient for its proven benefits. We test everything on ourselves first—if it doesn’t transform our skin, it doesn’t leave our workshop.
Ossie honours two beloved Oscars who taught me that excellence is in the details. In Irish usage, it carries the sense of protective care—which is exactly what we provide. Not just products, but a complete understanding of your skin’s needs.
This is personal. Every jar carries our commitment to performance without compromise.
We empower your skin to thrive.
