Lyonsleaf Natural Skincare
Handmade products with 100% natural ingredients, including homegrown herbs. Wells, Somerset UK. Safe, effective and not just for the bourgeoisie.
100% Natural, award winning, skincare suitable for people with very sensitive skin, sufferers of eczema & psoriasis and those who just want to avoid artificial chemicals. We grow, harvest and and infuse herbs into cold pressed, natural oils using traditional methods. We use these oils in our skincare products which are all hand made, at our farm on the Mendip Hills.
Today day and night stand in perfect balance, and out in our calendula patch you can feel the season turning. The flowers are slowing down. Each week there’s a little less to pick.
Every bloom we harvest is infused quickly into oil, before it has time to degrade, to create our potent water-free skincare. We move fast to ensure all the goodness of the plant and the sun it has soaked up finds its way into the final product.
The equinox ushers Libra season in, the sign of balance and fairness, which feels fitting. We’re bringing together the Lyonsleaf Growing Collective, a group of local growers who will help us source enough fresh, locally grown calendula in the future. We want it to be a true partnership that benefits everyone involved: fair for our growers, good for the land, and a way to ensure we can keep making products as potent and effective as nature intended.
We’re excited to have already connected with some extraordinary local cultivators, who all have their own stories. We are already in cahoots, laying the groundwork for spring, so there will be more to share soon.
If you’re a grower, local to Wells in Somerset and would like to be part of The Collective, do send us a message. We’d love to hear from you.

“In 14 days my face has gone from pepperoni pizza, to only two of the most stubborn lesions. And they are nearly gone too!” 🌟 Nikki, July 2026
Puberty doesn’t just change your body, it changes your skin’s entire chemistry. The instinct is to fight back with stronger cleansers and scrubs, but teenage skin doesn’t need a battle plan, it needs a bit of understanding.
Our new blog breaks down why “squeaky clean” backfires, how to protect your skin barrier during the teenage years, and why we built a simple, unisex, 100% natural bundle instead of a 10-step routine.

Today is World Atopic Eczema Day. This year’s theme is “Breaking the Invisible Burden,” and it couldn’t be more relevant.
Because eczema isn’t just a rash. It’s the sleep you lose to the itch. The clothes you can’t wear. The plans you cancel, the confidence knocked, the exhaustion of managing a flare that never quite goes away and endlessly checking ingredient labels. It’s invisible to everyone except the person living it.
We see you. We formulate for you. We know some ‘safe and effective’ ingredients are definitely not suitable for you. And today, more than ever, we want you to know: we see what you carry, it’s heavy, but you are not carrying it alone.

Harvest mite season is here, and if you’ve ever been caught out by one, you’ll know it’s no ordinary itch.
(aka ) are active from late August into September, especially near farmland, coastal grass and long vegetation. They don’t bite like a mosquito — they pierce the skin and release enzymes that break down skin cells, which is what triggers that intense, disproportionate itching and swelling. For some people it’s mild. For others, it can be dramatic.
The real risk isn’t the mite itself, it’s what happens after. Scratching broken skin can let bacteria in, leading to infections like impetigo or cellulitis. So the priority is always: soothe, don’t scratch.
One of our customers in Scotland has used our Calendula Cream every harvest mite season for 4 years running, and told us it stops the itch immediately, before it has the chance to escalate. 💛

Our little late crop is reaching full bloom at last. Calendula is a wonderful anti-inflammatory , but it doesn’t store well. Buy it from a supplier and it’s always brown and oxidised. At Lyonsleaf we with local growers, so we infuse organic sunflower oil with our blooms within days of picking. We believe that’s the secret to lyonsleaf . It is the reason our herbal skincare is so potent and effective.
This year the has hit our main supplier badly and they can’t supply as much as we had hoped.
So we decided to grow a late crop at Lyonsleaf HQ. It’s a bit of an experiment, we don’t know how long they will flower, but even if we don’t get much of a from it it will help decide when and where to plant next year to adapt to the changing climate. We might even over winter these plants for an early crop next year.
It’s so great to have an excuse to get out if the office and get our hands back in the soil on work days too 😊

So exciting!! Our little late crop of Calendula at Lyonsleaf HQ has just come to fruition. I’ve made the first tiny pick today - there will be lots more soon though. These flowers will be dried and used (before they have time to degrade) to infuse organic sunflower oil with all the incredible anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial and wound healing compounds that calendula is famous for. Then we will use that deep orange calendula oil to make our legendary Lyonsleaf balms. Hi-five to our local growers that supply the bulk of our flowers straight from the field. We couldn’t do it without you!
