OUR PHILOSOPHY
NUTRITION – We believe that cellular nutrients are the key to skin health and improving skin health is the cornerstone of corrective and preventative skincare.
RESULTS – Simply put, OSKIA is a 'results only' driven brand. We only use safe, proven and published, patented actives & nutrients at efficacious percentages, that deliver real clinically-proven results. Every ingredient we use is extensively researched by our team of formulators to ensure that the results are real and kind to your skin.
INCLUSIVITY - OSKIA has always been a brand for everybody and all skin, which is why you will not find a dedicated men’s line nor models used in our marketing campaigns. We focus purely on the formulas themselves and skin concerns for all skin types and tones. Our products are clinically tested on a range of ethnicities and skin tones.
HELPING THE SKIN HELP ITSELF – Our products are designed to work with your skin for a longer-term and effective skincare solution. We use many ingredients that are already found within the body, such as Glutathione (the body's own key anti-oxidant), or ingredients that stimulate key factors within the body (this is where nutrients come in!) or are the building blocks of our cellular makeup and processes.
TECHNOLOGY – We pride ourselves on our unique patented delivery systems & technologies that ensure our nutrients & bio-actives not only reach the deepest levels of the skin but also where in the skin's cells they are needed.
HONESTY – No gimmicks, no marketing tricks, no inflated prices, just 100% transparency and products that work. We are proud of what we’re doing.
PURITY – We use naturally-derived, bio-identical (ie peptides) ingredients that are kind to your skin & our environment. We work to Natural Standard ISO 16128 to give all our products a percent of natural and natural origin (around 99%). We’ll never use potentially harmful ingredients and much research goes into every single ingredient that we do use as well as the ingredients that we have chosen not to use. We would describe ourselves as 'Bio Tech'. Our key ingredients to avoid are some alcohol, SLS’s, Proplylene Glycol, silicon, synthetic dyes, mineral oil & phthalates.
SAFE - We formulate all our products to EU guidelines and legislation. This includes the maximum and safe levels of all our actives.
SUSTAINABILITY – Sustainability is at the core of every decision we make, from formulation to packaging and everything in between. We calculate over 98% of our packaging to be recyclable and 97% of our ingredients and packaging sustainably sourced, and we will not be satisfied until we reach 100%. Not only that we have used bio-technology to produce bio-identical ingredients that are both environmentally and socially more sustainable.
BIO-TECHNOLOGY - We pride ourselves in using bio-technology to produce bio-identical molecules that are both environmentally and socially more sustainable.
OUR ETHICS
ANIMAL TESTING - We don’t and have never tested on animals. We do not sell in China.
VEGETARIAN & VEGAN - All our products are suitable for vegetarians, and the majority for Vegans. We do use Milk Peptides and Lactoferrin in a few products (from milk), but this is clearly stated on each product page.
ENVIRONMENTAL - We love glass and we're in the process of phasing out plastic tubes and switching to tubes made from Sugar Beet. All our paper and outer packaging is either from recyclable materials or are recyclable.
OUR FACTORY - We try and use as many environmentally friendly processes as possible, from the solar panels at our factory to the eco paints in our offices.
CHARITY WORK - We support a several charities including Great Ormond Street, Coppa Feel, BLM and Women of Women International. 100% of the profits from our annual Black Friday Sale always go to charity.
