Hello! 😊👋
I'm Ella and here's my partner Leo, together we're the co-founders of WOW YOU!
A few of you have been asking about how we started our company so I wanted to let you know the story behind our brand and why we created our range of naturally powered skincare!
In 2017 I was diagnosed with Coeliac disease, making me highly sensitive to gluten. This caused a huge change in diet and meant spending hours in the supermarket reading ingredients lists! 📄
Paying way more attention to something I’d previously taken for granted made me start to question not only what I was putting in my body, but what I was putting on it too!
Then my eczema flared up and the “sensitive” skincare products I tried to soothe it with just ended up irritating my skin further and when I read the ingredients I started to understand why!
Although aimed at helping sensitive skin, I found that they actually contained harsh ingredients and fragrances! I was really surprised by the number of ingredients that I couldn’t recognise or even pronounce.
I became obsessed with researching clean skincare but really struggled to find products using natural actives and no harsh fragrances which were cruelty free and still within my price range!
Leo suggested to me, “Why don’t we create the skincare solution you’re looking for?” and it was a real light bulb moment for us! 💡
We set about creating & designing the affordable cruelty free skincare I wanted to use, focussing on naturally powerful actives and leaving out all the nasties (parabens, sulphates, drying alcohol & harsh synthetic fragrances).
WOW YOU! launched in August 2018 and we have been absolutely blown away by all the super positive feedback from our wonderful customers and followers since then. We are incredibly greatful for all your support! 🙏💕
We love helping you find the right products for your skin and we’re always happy to help out with your questions! I've struggled with my skin which has really helped me to understand and relate to that feeling of wanting to find high quality skincare that really works (without breaking the bank!)
Thank you for stopping by, as a small independent business it really means the world to us that you took the time to read our story! We can’t wait to share all our exciting news coming up soon, you can follow us on Instagram or subscribe to our newsletter below for all the latest announcements 😘.
We're going to start doing more blog posts too - if there's anything you'd like to learn more about, or any skincare questions you have, we'd love to hear from you in the comments below 😊.
Love,
Ella, Leo,
Zen & Jaz

These are such brilliant products and smell absolutely divine! The smells stays forever and so so nice on your skin. Not only the products but customer service is brilliant. My first delivery was damaged by the courier but Ella was so quick to respond and send out new products! Really brilliant service 🥰
These products are just WOW.. the body butter itself is amazing it isn’t sticky which is really important to me and smell heavenly.. but the scrubs OMG never used anything like it. It’s foaming and makes you feel really soft and clean.. half an hour after a bath I can still smell the lovely scent. I already bought more.. by the way the costumer service is 5 stars Ervi lost my package 2 days later I already have a replacement here with me.
I dont understand why there isnt more reviews and raves about this brand. I took a chance and purchased the hibiscus fluff and scrub and my god the smell is amazing in both the scrub is soooo good ive been using another branf fot a few years but they discontinued their scrub and this is my new fav. Im gonna get the strawberry next and also wanna try the body butter. DO NOT HESITATE
Decided to treat myself to these after seeing them on insta ads for ages, omg glad I did they smell amazing and the scrub is gentle but effective, will deffo be topping up when I run out
I have been buying this cleanser now for over 3 years and it has helped my skin so much. I caused huge sensitivity after using an acne cream which shouldn't of been prescribed for me and this is the only cleanser that didn't sting of burn. It leaves my face feeling soft, clean and refreshed. If you have sensitive skin this cleanser is a life saver! Please don't ever stop making it!!!!! 😊
Was very excited to try these new body butters and I love them! Smells great and leaves my skin nice and smooth
Great product. Smells amazing.
Gel cleanser or even foam ones always feel tight on my skin or not enough creaminess to help my dryness. But this stuff works! I hope this gets back on stock cause I can't get enough of it!
This body butter is just fabulous. I have tried the other scents, so I just had to get this one as well. The smell is strong & delicious. It lingers on the skin so people keep commenting they can smell strawberries when I walk in the room ha ha. Hoping to see different scents being launched for xmas to add to my xmas list.
I've berberine buying g this serum for a couple of years now & wouldn't change to another brand, since this is just what I need. It's reasonably priced my skin loves it & it's eco friendly. The only thing I would like is a bigger size, apart from that, I would highly recommend 👌
Best body butter I have ever used and smells amazing too, love it and have recommended to others
Thank you for this product, I have suffered from having itchy sore legs for a long time now and haven’t been able to find anything to stop it. This body butter has done the job it
is amazing and smells lovely too! I will be ordering the shaving cream soo xx
This is a wonderful body shower cream! Fragrance really lasts beautifully made..
Absolutely love this scrub and the fluff in the matching scent. Just about to place another order too! The scrub is not too little and not too much, just right. The lather is perfect. The smell is also dreamy and unlike other scrubs the smell lasts! I ordered something similar from Amazon from a big name Instagram brand called Brooklyn botany and it was so disappointing- I had to return it -
but yours was so amazing ! Can’t wait to try the others! Thank you so much!
gorgeous smell and feeling to all the products they feel so luxurious. stop a strawberry legs and ingrown! would recommend!
