Helping Yorkshire Skin with Natural Skincare from West Riding Soapworks
Introduction
.
Living in West Yorkshire, the changeable weather can leave your skin feeling tight, dull, and dehydrated. At West Riding Soapworks, our small-batch, UK-made natural skincare range harnesses the healing powers of cold-pressed plant oils and butters to restore soft, healthy skin—without harsh chemicals or filler ingredients.
Looking after your skin doesn’t mean spending a fortune or fussy time consuming routines. Here in Yorkshire we like proper products that work.
Why Yorkshire’s Weather Calls for Natural Skincare
Frequent rain, occasional sunshine, wind, and indoor heating strip moisture from the skin.
Dry skin types or sensitive skin often experience redness, itchiness, and visible texture.
Natural moisturisers like shea butter and cold-pressed oils help reinforce the skin’s barrier and retain hydration.
Hero Ingredients & Their Benefits
Mango/Shea Butter: Rich in vitamins A, E, & F, it deeply moisturises and helps repair the skin barrier—ideal for dry or eczema-prone skin.
Cold-Pressed Plant Oils: Preserves natural antioxidants and nutrients, offering hydration and anti-aging benefits without irritation .
Cocoa Butter: A potent, emollient-rich ingredient that helps soothe and hydrate dry areas like elbows, heels, or lips—though heavy for acne-prone facial skin .
Natural No Nonsense Skincare Routine: Step-by-Step
Cleanse Gently: Use our gentle cold-pressed soap to dissolve impurities while preserving natural moisture.
Exfoliate Occasionally: Use a gentle, plant-butter scrub once weekly to remove flaky skin and promote renewal. Our scrubs are fabulous for holiday prep and especially good for dry elbows, knees and heels.
Lock in Moisture: Seal with a richer cream or butter—perfect after bath or shower to reduce trans-epidermal water loss
Its that simple!
