Hi Beth here and I’m the founder of BAO Skincare. Did you know I have over 15 years in the natural beauty industry and have been formulating and making natural skincare since 2012? I live in Dorset with my boyfriend, cat and dog.

Natural skincare means products that are mindfully and honestly created and produced without the use of any ingredients that are harsh and damaging to the skin. Alongside this, natural products should be made from ethically sourced ingredients with the health of the customer at the forefront and the preservation of the environment in mind.  

Firstly, BAO is one of the very few brands that is certified organic, natural, vegan AND cruelty free. I am always honest and upfront with the ingredients I use and always at the end of the phone if you have a question…. literally. I actually care for your skin and have built my brand around my own personal journey with health issues and sensitive skin. Skin is a living organ with ever-changing needs depending on where we live, the time of year, or even the day. You know how sometimes you feel like richer foods and other times lighter veggies? It’s because your body has cravings—and the same goes for your skin. That’s why I create products that can be used in any combination and will suit pretty much every skincare type and concern. 

After being in hospital and having four operations in 2019/2020 I have just been trying to keep my head above water. But now I am loads better, I have so many exciting new products to share with you, hopefully towards the end of year, but to be the first to know make sure you are receiving my emails. Subscribe Here.

I don’t believe in filling my products with nasty chemicals that are not only harmful to our skin but the planet, so sustainability is always top of mind when creating anything in my brand. So I can guarantee all of the ingredients and packaging I use is good for you and the planet BAO Skincare is certified! By ditching your mass-produced bathroom staples and swapping them for safe, environmentally friendly products like BAO, making the difference is as easy as washing your hands. I envision a future in which everybody is as caring and conscientious as you are. That’s why with BAO Skincare I am committed to using the platform as an environmentally friendly beauty company to change attitudes about environmental issues. But we can only do so much on our own. If we really want to shift attitudes towards environmental awareness, we’re going to need your help. Since you’re as passionate about the environment as I am, let's spread the message together. Tell all your friends, relatives and co-workers about how going organic benefits everybody. You have a powerful voice, let’s hear it!

Me! Everytime you email, dm, facebook message, call or text BAO Skincare you come through to me, Beth. I am always here to help you and answer any questions you have about your skin. 

At least once a month I do a special offer and/or gift with purchase. Then if you work for the NHS you are entitled to 20% off every order, simply email me a photo of your ID card and I will send you a lifetime code.

Yes! With every order over £20 I pop in a free 5ml sample, if you have a specific product you’d like to try let me know in the notes when ordering. Free samples are not included with orders that have been discounted or contain a free gift. 

All of the BAO Skincare products are handmade by myself ,in my home studio in Dorset. However as BAO is becoming so popular I am struggling to make everything on my own. So I will be getting help with the making, still by hand and still in Dorset, in the next few months.

Everything in the BAO Skincare Collection can be recycled, with the exception of the pumps. You can find more information on how to recycle your products and packaging here. 

After a very long and in depth process, BAO Skincare is proudly registered 100% Vegan and Cruelty Free by The Vegan Society and certified Organic and Natural by COSMOS Soil Association. Read more here.

They were created with hyper sensitive skin in mind, however they actually suit every other skin type and concern. Read more here.

Absolutely not and because I stand by what I say, BAO Skincare has the certifications of The Vegan Society and Soil Association to prove it. The Leaping Bunny only certified products to be “Cruelty Free” but they can still be full of chemicals and/or non vegan.

The balms, salts, body scrub, face and body oils do not contain any preservative as they do not contain water. These have a shelf life of  around 18 months. The creams and washes contain water, so they have an eco preservative added. But don’t worry as it doesn’t contain any harsh chemicals and damage your skin, obviously. The washes have a 30 month shelf life and the creams 24 months.

They are best kept in a cool, dry place away from bright light and heat. As BAO Skincare is made from plant ingredients and essential oils, the powerful antioxidants can be ruined if they are exposed to direct sunlight or get too warm. 

Yes of course. I have no secrets and nothing to hide. All of the ingredients are listed in full on both the packaging and product pages and you can read more on what the ingredients actually are here.

Gosh no way yuk! These are nasty and can cause irritation on the skin. I personally have not been able to wear any perfume for over 8 years because they all bring me up in bumps and a rash, so I scent my skin and all BAO products with pure essential oils only.

This is because they contain the beautiful aromas of pure essential oils. I have carefully selected the scents to suit the products in which they are in, meaning they will either uplift, calm or balance your skin and mind whilst using them.

All of the BAO Skincare products are safe to use during pregnancy and once you become a mum, as well as being safe for your little ones. Although there isn’t any scientific proof, lavender oil is best avoided in the first trimester, so please steer clear of Healing Body Oil, Healing Bath Salts and Restorative Beauty Oil during this time.

Currently not so please make sure your last skincare step is applying SPF. Exciting news though, I have been working hard on formulating a hydrating face SPF so I will keep you posted.

Once you place an order you will receive an email for me, then once I have dispatched your package you will get another email to let you know.  I use  Royal Mail drop and go, everything is posted 48 hour Tracked, but please bare in mind Royal Mail can have some delays, which unfortunately are out of my hands. Thank you for your patience. 

You can cancel your order before it has been dispatched by emailing me straight away, I will then process the refund. If your order has been dispatched and you want to cancel it. You will have to wait for it to arrive, then post it back to me with proof. BAO Skincare does not pay for the return postage and the postage will be deducted from your order amount.
