Meet Olivia Thorpe

Founder and creator of the 6 x award winning Vanderohe No. 1 nourishing face serum, and

a pioneer of organic and wild crafted skincare. Using the world's highest grade
natural ingredients.

After using this face serum myself for a month ( before launching it on The Slow Mode ) I was blown away by the improvements in my own skin, no need for extra moisturizer any more. Finally my skin had a nourished glow to it and my dehydrated forehead had vanished ! It's suitable on any aged skin and perfect for pregnant and nursing mothers.

Read Olivia's story of how her first Vanderohe No. 1 bottle was created...

"I’m one of those unfortunate people who suffer a whole array of skin problems; I had eczema as a child, mild acne in my teens, late-onset allergies in my twenties and now in my thirties I have extremely sensitive and allergic skin.

When I became pregnant with my first son, I was told by my doctor to be wary of using certain beauty products, as they might contain ingredients that could be harmful to my baby. I had never really considered ingredients lists before – my aim was only ever to achieve smooth, clear skin and I didn’t really care what was in the product.

With the added responsibility of caring for my baby, I immediately turned to natural and organic brands as an alternative and I was amazed at the immediate difference in my skin. Using something pure, organic and plant-based on my skin felt like I was feeding it vitamins and nutrients; whereas the synthetic-filled products I had previously used felt like they were just sitting on my skin to mask it.

I arrived at the formula for No.1 Nourishing Face Serum through its scent – I had never before come across a plant-based product with such a luxurious, complex and calming scent. Even after using the serum for just one day, I noticed a vast improvement to my skin and I now use it alone day and night without needing any other product to treat and moisturize my skin. "
