Votary began at the kitchen table of makeup artist, Arabella Preston. Arabella started blending pure plant oils to cleanse her own skin, and to prep the skin of her high-profile clients. Thrilled by the transformative power of the cleansing and facial oils she made, she teamed up with friend and entrepreneur, Charlotte Semler, to create Votary. Launched in 2015, Votary has quickly achieved cult status with its range of British-made cleansing and treatment oils.

Beautiful skin begins with properly clean skin, which is why the Votary cleansing routine is at the heart of everything they do. Votary cleansing oils and 100% pure cotton face cloths are simply the best way to clean and care for your face. It’s where great skin begins. The Votary range now spans cleansing oils, facial oils, deeply nourishing creams, masks and powerful serums to give you healthy, happy, glowing skin.
