Made in the UK

There’s no reason for the products you put on your skin to be a seasoned traveller. We believe in local.

Our products and ingredients are sourced, formulated, manufactured, and packaged in small batches in the UK. Limiting our environmental footprint.

We only work with UK suppliers who align with our sustainability values.

NESSA on Sustainability

We are working hard to infuse sustainability across our full supply chain, from ingredient sourcing, to the delivery companies we work with.

We use recycled glass, and limit our use of plastic where possible. All our cartons are recyclable, and we ship in 100% recycled Kraft cardboard boxes.

We’re passionate about making more sustainable choices, reducing our carbon footprint, and working harder for the environment, not against it.

Vegan & Cruelty-Free

We’re all for a game of hide and seek, but not when it comes to what we put on our skin. So you’ll find absolutely nothing artificial hidden in our products.

We’re cruelty free, and vegan certified, so you won’t find a single animal by-product in the entire NESSA range.

No ingredients, or final products, have been tested on any animals. Cruel to be kind is not a phrase we credit.

Fragrance Free (some) things are better nude

We don’t alter the look, smell or feel of our products. They do their best work naked – perfectly balanced with the right vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory properties to support your skin in its hour of need.

Many women experience sensitive skin, and unnecessary fragrances, and essential oils can cause skin irritation.

You could do without that. So all our products do too.

Building a Community

We’re passionate about creating an honest, supportive, inclusive community for women from pregnancy right through to menopause.

Fiona’s Story

“I felt really let down by the beauty industry after I had my first baby, there is a complete lack of realism, about how our bodies change during pregnancy, childbirth, postpartum, motherhood, right through to menopause, it’s all one big taboo that no one talks about.

Why do so many women feel isolated, and embarrassed to talk about their bodies post baby? Why is menopause hushed in society? We all go through it.

Here at NESSA we are doing things differently, we’re breaking the taboos, and celebrating all our bodies have done for us”

Fiona Toomey, Founder and CEO

Our Difference

All NESSA products are formulated alongside some of the most experienced women’s health practitioners in the UK.

We supercharge our formulations with innovative natural ingredients, scientifically proven to aid recovering skin.

Our range is completely naked, as nature intended, and that’s exactly how we bottle them.

Bliss

Bliss is a UK charity for babies born premature or sick. Every time you shop with NESSA, we donate 1% to Bliss.

Every day, over 300 babies in the UK are admitted to neonatal care. Bliss is a UK charity supporting babies who are born prematurely or sick, and their families.

Meet the woman behind the name…

Nessa was a bad-ass legendary Irish warrior, and all round strong, independent female. A queen in her own right, and mother to one of the great kings of Ireland (with a heroic birthing tale to boot), she’s our daily inspiration, and mythical brand ambassador.
