About me....
My name is Holly – and I am the founder of The Ilex Wood.
Let me tell you a little bit about myself and the ethos behind the products I create.
I am a strong believer in the powers of plants and create my own herbal oil infusions that make the base of my products.
I believe that simplicity is key when it comes to skin care, an effective and quality product with no more than 10 natural ingredients with no padding or water can be created; to form an active concentrated end product with desired results.
Ever since I was young, I have been obsessed with nature. Growing up in the countryside and being a farmer's daughter meant I spent a great deal of time outdoors, learning about the power of plants.
Unable to find any purely natural products in the stores (many market themselves as natural but check the labels and look out for the cheap padding and water (aqua)!), I took to creating my own using the plant knowledge I gained to create effective and luxurious skin care products.
