Daughter and mother team Sarah Thomas and Karen Horsley are the founders of natural skincare brand Clockface Beauty, launched in York last October with products for both men and women.

“I was inspired to create an all-natural skincare range during my first pregnancy, when I became increasingly concerned about what I was putting on my skin and found a lack of transparency in product labelling,” Sarah said. So she set developing all-natural skincare with Karen, a specialist scientist, combining their experience to develop a brand that has at its heart the belief in a natural, beautiful glow.

Clockface Beauty “waterless” luxury skincare products are all organic and vegan (registered with the Vegan Society). Sarah said: “We believe in labelling that’s clear, transparent and honest about what’s inside and that’s why all our ingredients are clearly listed in their common name as well. Our range is a multisensory skin ritual, taking the best, most effective and targeted ingredients that nature provides for the most effective results.”

The brand has just won a Pure Beauty Global award and Best Clean Beauty Brand in the Eluxe Awards.

Here are Sarah and Karen’s top skincare tips:

Use natural and organic skincare, they say. Natural made products don’t use toxins or other artificial chemicals.

It’s important to wear an SPF even on dull winter days.

Keep hydrated, making sure you drink plenty of water every day.

Take care of the neck. A serum can make a big difference. It’s a very exposed area, and it can be one of the first areas to show signs of ageing. “We always apply our Signature Collection Facial Serum to the neck twice a day,” they say.
