Natural, organic organ oil skincare? Meet Douvall's
From time to time, I like to throw the spotlight on our sellers, as well as our natural product ranges. Not just because they happen to make amazing natural, organic and sustainable products - but because, honestly, these are the independent brands that are leading the way in eco friendly business! And they do it with heart & soul.
We’re as proud of the brands we have on Organics as we are of the products we stock. So, let me introduce you to Douvall's!
About Douvall’s
Douvall’s is one of the latest brands we're sooo excited to be stocking.
A 100% natural skincare, haircare, make up and wellness range based on the health and beauty benefits of raw, organic Argan oil. They make innovative, luxury products with responsibly sourced, high quality ingredients.
Created by mother and daughter team, Alicia and Georgia Douvall, the award winning brand has a multi-tasking skincare and make up range, with natural ingredients that really work.
Douvall’s is eco-friendly, sustainable and ethical - giving back to the communities where their ingredients are sourced. And we love that.

Is Douvall’s an ethical brand?
Alicia and Georgia Douvall put their philosophy like this;
“We are a responsible and eco-conscious company committed to giving back to our planet, society, partners and customers. We believe skin care is all about giving back, that’s why we work with many charities and our partnerships are growing fast!”
They support charities and use their social media to voice support for a whole host of campaigns - from Pride to anti-hunting and anti-cruelty campaigns.
And Douvall's work directly with a women's co-operative based in Morocco, which sources the best raw, first cold-pressed Argan oil on the market. Which, in turn, enables the co-operative to provide a fair wage, good working conditions, childcare and education. Women working for women!
Is Douvall’s a Natural Brand?
Yep! Their products are all natural. They don’t use chemicals, toxins, artificial perfumes, sulphates, parabens, or alcohol. Meaning your skin care is clean, gentle, natural and effective.
And, yes, their products are cruelty free. Like this pretty lip and cheek tint.
An Argan lip and cheek colour oil that moisturises and tints lips & cheeks at the same time. It goes on as a light cream then transforms into a non-greasy moisturising oil. A natural dewy look with a subtle blush of colour. Which, by the way, come in three shades. Choose from Sweet Love, Berry Blast and Tropical Island! (or get them all!)
What is Argan oil?
Sometimes nicknamed “liquid gold”, Argan oil is a rich oil that’s sourced from the kernels of the Moroccan Argan tree and is well known for its light, moisturising texture.
It’s been used for centuries in medicine, food and cosmetics. If it’s ‘raw’ argan oil - as Douvall’s uses, then it’s completely natural and hasn’t been processed or diluted in any way. And it’s a super oil, which is why it makes an amazing moisturiser.
This is Douvall’s classic first cold pressed, multi tasking 100% pure, eco-certified, organic Argan oil moisturiser. It’s fast absorbing, light weight, extremely high in vitamin E, essential fatty acids and antioxidants,
It’s light enough to use as a day and night cream, as well as a deeply nourishing and replenishing body moisturiser. Best bit? You can also use it on nail cuticles for stronger nails, and in hair as a treatment, to smooth hair, add shine and softness.
It’s a classic multi-tasking all rounder, which I love in a natural product!
4 Main Benefits of organic Argan oil for skin and hair
As I said, it's a bit of a super oil .. here’s just a few of the fantastic benefits of Argan oil:
- Full of Vitamin E
- Packed with anti-oxidants
- Lots of essential fatty acids
- Doesn't clog pores
1 Argan Oil is great source of vitamin E
Vitamin E is an essential nutrient for maintaining skin health, and there’s lots and lots of it in argan oil. It defends against free radicals, which are big players in the ageing process. It also reduces UV damage and helps lock in moisture in the skin to keep it soft and hydrated. Vitamin E is really good for scalp health and healthy hair. Douvall’s have bottled it just for your locks!
Organic Argan Haircare Lovers Set
Argan oil is nature’s own hair care. And this is the ultimate haircare gift set. Cold pressed Argan oil with the Amazon Rainforest's Unguaruhua Oil in a natural shampoo. It deep cleanses and feeds hair with no damage or stripping. You get one Argan and Unguaruhua shampoo, a conditioner, and a 100% Pure Organic Argan oil. Your hair will show you how much it loves this stuff!
2 Argan Oil is packed with antioxidants
Antioxidants keep your body healthy and support cell regeneration. Argan oil is packed with antioxidants (including vitamin E). As well as helping against premature ageing, and the signs of ageing, antioxidants are soothing and anti-inflammatory for the skin. It's a natural healer!
This multi-balm delivers healing and hydration just where you need it.
A Mandarin and Lemongrass Argan multi-balm, that gives intense instant hydration for dry skin in an easy roll-on. This magic stick can be used on dry areas anywhere! Gentle enough for the face, under eyes, lips and body, but also hard skin on the feet, cuticles and even sunburn! It’s an absolute all rounder and a must have for nourishing and reviving tired, dry skin. Got to love a multi-tasker!
3 Argan oil has all the good fatty acids your skin needs
Good natural oils are made up of essential fatty acids, which are essential for skin and body health. Argan oil is a bit of a superstar in this category - it contains linoleic and oleic acid and these two keep skin firm skin, and moisturise hair follicles superbly.
4 Argan oil won’t clog up pores
If you’re worried about putting an oil-based product on your skin, no problem. Argan oil won’t make your complexion any greasier. In fact, it’s considered to be very low on the comedogenic (pore-blocking) scale. It will actually give your skin a nice glow and not an oily sheen.
As the key foundation ingredient to Douvall’s skincare and hair range, you’re pretty much guaranteed its benefits across all the product range. From powerful natural facial moisturisers, body wash, bronzing cream, gorgeous lip and cheek tints, to natural candles and dreamy sleep oil. They really do have it all.
Douvall’s - Our Round Up
A dedicated and passionate mum and daughter duo, who’ve created a luxury but affordable range of natural products - that really are gorgeous! I love their lip and cheek tint and the natural botanical scents of the body wash, and their candles are next level!
Douvall’s is proof that the luxury end of the natural beauty market can be sustainable, and ethical - and work with communities as part of their brand development rather than just taking what they need at the lowest price.
