Frequently Asked Questions

Product Information

Are your products suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, our products are formulated with sensitive skin in mind. Mariha's experience working with challenging skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis means every product is developed to be gentle yet effective. We use only natural, organic ingredients and avoid common irritants. However, as with any skincare product, we recommend patch testing before first use.
How long do your products last once opened?
Our products have varying shelf lives depending on the formulation: serums typically last 6-12 months, moisturisers 12-18 months, and balms up to 18 months when stored properly. Each product description lists the specific shelf life, and we include batch numbers for freshness tracking.
What makes Glamorganics different from other natural skincare brands?
Our founder Mariha brings professional formulation experience from working with challenging skin conditions. This means our products are created with industry expertise, not just good intentions. We understand how ingredients interact and what concentrations actually work, all while maintaining our commitment to natural, organic ingredients.
Do you offer trial or sample sizes?
Currently we don't offer sample sizes as we focus on creating full-size products with the best value for our customers. However, we do offer a 30-day satisfaction guarantee for unopened products, and our customer service team is always happy to help you choose the right products for your skin type before purchasing.
What age range are your products suitable for?
Our products are formulated for adult use. The Miracle Bee Balm can be used by adults for various skin concerns including dry, cracked skin and minor irritations.Our Radiant Glow Serum is designed specifically for adult skincare routines to address concerns like uneven skin tone and general skin health. We recommend consulting with a healthcare professional before using any skincare products on children.

Ingredients & Formulation

Are your ingredients really organic and natural?
Yes, we use organic ingredients wherever possible and all ingredients are natural. We never use synthetic preservatives, artificial fragrances, parabens, or sulphates. Our preservation comes from natural sources like Vitamin E oil, which also provides skin benefits.
Where do you source your ingredients?
We work exclusively with certified organic suppliers here in the UK who specialise in natural and organic ingredients. This ensures the shortest supply chain possible, supports local businesses, and allows us to maintain the highest quality standards. Every ingredient is carefully selected for purity and ethically sourced.
Why do you use essential oils instead of synthetic fragrances?
Essential oils provide both natural scent and therapeutic skin benefits - like frankincense for skin regeneration or ylang ylang for skin balancing. Synthetic fragrances only add scent and can trigger sensitivities, which goes against our gentle, effective philosophy.
Do your products contain any allergens?
Our products contain naturally occurring allergens found in essential oils (such as limonene in citrus oils). All allergens are listed on product packaging as required by UK regulations. If you have known allergies, please check ingredient lists carefully or contact us for guidance.

Safety & Testing

Are your products tested on animals?
Never. We are proudly cruelty-free and only test on willing human volunteers who provide honest feedback. We do not sell in markets that require animal testing and never will.
Can I use your products during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
Our natural formulations are generally pregnancy-safe, but we recommend checking with your healthcare provider as individual sensitivities can vary during pregnancy. Our Miracle Bee Balm and Magical Repair Oil are particularly gentle for this time.
What if I have a skin reaction?
Stop using the product immediately and consult a healthcare professional if the reaction is severe. Contact us within 7 days - Mariha personally reviews all product-related skin concerns and we offer full refunds for genuine adverse reactions, even on opened products.

Usage & Application

How should I store my Glamorganics products?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid humid bathrooms if possible, and always keep lids tightly closed. Our amber glass packaging protects light-sensitive ingredients, but proper storage ensures maximum potency.
Can I use multiple Glamorganics products together?
Absolutely! Our products are designed to work together. Start slowly (2-3 times per week) when adding new products to monitor your skin's response, then build up to daily use as your skin adjusts.
What's the best order to apply your products?
For our range: Cleanse your skin → Apply Radiant Glow Serum → Follow with Dreamy Moisturiser → Use Magical Repair Oil for targeted areas → Apply Miracle Bee Balm to problem spots as needed. Always apply from thinnest to thickest consistency.
How quickly will I see results?
Results vary by product and skin concern. Our Radiant Glow Serum typically shows improvements within 3-4 days of consistent use, while other skincare products may take 5-7 days. For more persistent skin concerns, allow 2-4 weeks for significant improvement with regular use.

Orders & Shipping

Where do you ship?
Currently UK only, with plans to expand to Europe soon. We use tracked, temperature-safe shipping to protect your products. UK orders typically arrive within 2-3 working days.
What if I'm not satisfied with my purchase?
We offer a 30-day satisfaction guarantee for unopened products. If you experience a genuine adverse reaction, we provide full refunds even for opened products. See our full returns policy for complete details.
Do you offer wholesale or bulk discounts?
We're a small-batch operation, but we do work with select retailers and practitioners. Contact us at hello@glamorganics.co.uk to discuss wholesale opportunities or bulk orders for special occasions.
How are products made fresh?
We make products in small batches throughout the month rather than large monthly batches. This means your order is likely made within 1-2 weeks of shipping, ensuring maximum freshness and potency when it reaches you.
