We work hard to create beautiful products that are a pleasure to use, but most importantly WORK to address your skin health and skin concerns. We don't use product bases and 'flavour' with essential oils or use white label ready made formulations - everything we make is formulated and handmade by us in our rural East Lothian studio.

We partner with the Ecologi to plant a tree for each product we sell and also make regular product donations to Women's Aid. We do our best to support ethical supply chains for ingredients grown outside the UK and use some circular ingredients like grapeseed and raspberry seed oils.

From golden sea buckthorn oil from berries hand-picked on the ancient East Lothian coastline to Scottish lavender grown just sixty miles away, we source ingredients locally and from the UK, where possible. UK grown ingredients we use include white poppy, hemp, black currant, sea buckthorn, borage, nettle, lavender and rosemary.

We are proudly cruelty-free accredited by Cruelty Free International and endorsed by the Compassionate Shopping Guide and will never use ingredients that have been tested on animals or test our own products on animals. All of our products are vegan or vegetarian friendly.

Raven Botanicals believes that beauty products should be cruelty free. We are proud to be Leaping Bunny approved. A global programme, Leaping Bunny requires cruelty free standards over and above legal requirements.

All of our own brand cosmetic and personal care products are approved under the Cruelty Free International Leaping Bunny programme, the internationally recognisable gold standard for cruelty free products. We adhere to a fixed cut-off date policy and proactively monitor our suppliers to ensure that our products continue to adhere to the Leaping Bunny criteria. Our supplier monitoring system is also independently audited.

As well as being bad for biodiversity and eroding small farming communities, palm production is a major cause of deforestation, habitat loss, soil degradation and greenhouse gas emissions. Raven Botanicals is a palm oil free company.

We supply our products in widely recyclable materials like glass and aluminium and all of our pumps and droppers are reusable. Our packaging is deliberately simple and we protect your products in transit with biodegradable plant-based packing peanuts which dissolve on contact with water.
