I had to share this message we received from Michelle on Facebook as it is the absolute reason we do what we do. It literally fills my heart with happiness 🤍❤🤍

I was recommended English Scent by a friend, and I’m so grateful they did.
My 8-year-old daughter has suffered with scalp psoriasis for several years, and nothing we were prescribed seemed to help for more than a few days. A friend gave us one of English Scent’s shampoo bars to try, and we noticed a difference almost immediately. That encouraged me to visit the shop to see what else could help.
Helen recommended the scalp treatment, and all I can say is wow! The difference it has made has been incredible. I can now treat my daughter’s scalp as soon as I notice a flare-up starting, rather than waiting until bedtime. Just a few drops and her psoriasis settles again.
We’ve also been using the shampoo and conditioner, and not only have they helped keep her psoriasis under control, but they’ve also left her hair in such lovely condition.
Helen is absolutely wonderful—so friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about what she does. She knows every single ingredient in her products and takes the time to recommend what will work best.
I only wish we’d found English Scent sooner. The improvement in my daughter’s scalp in just a few weeks has been amazing, and I can’t recommend Helen and her products highly enough. Thank you so much!

HELEN'S MAGIC CREAM - Our beautiful customers say it best:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent
Review by Amanda C: Lovely cream. Very good on irritated , itchy skin .
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Review by Monika: This is the best product if you have psoriasis like me. I can't recommend it enough. It leaves you skin so soft and touchable without the pain associated with lotions with loaded with chemicals. It's a beautiful thick cream that's not greasy and it lasts and lasts so you always feel you have a protective barrier. I love this product! And I know all of the ingredients are natural which is a huge plus for me as I've been through every brand on the market in my 25 years of psoriasis. None compare to this for clean ingredients.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐I highly recommend this to anyone who suffers from irritated or troubled skin!
Review by Christine M:I highly recommend this to anyone who suffers from irritated or troubled skin!Would like to leave a review for the healing cream.
I had a skin problem for twenty years and no amount of prescribed creams or lotions had worked. I tried the healing cream and its just gone and I use a little to maintain my skin. Thrilled with this cream I highly recommend this to anyone who suffers from irritated or troubled skin!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Amazing stuff!
Review by Kelli: Helen recommended this cream to me for my teenager’s troublesome skin a while ago & since using it, his breakouts are considerably less often & clear up a lot quicker when he does get them. The fact that all the ingredients are natural and works better for his skin complaints than the chemical, over the counter creams speaks volumes. Amazing stuff! A small amount is needed each time as a little goes a long way so one tube will last for ages! Another added bonus is that is smells absolutely delicious! I highly recommend any of Helen’s products & will most certainly be ordering more!

Thank you to all the wonderful customers who have trusted us to help them and their loved ones.
With love,

Helen 🤍

INSIDE THE BOTTLE - Lavender

Lavender has long been treasured in natural skincare and remedies. It offers natural antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties that help soothe irritated skin, fight acne-causing bacteria, reduce redness, and support tissue healing.

It is famed for the soft, herbaceous floral scent that brings a feeling of calm and comfort, and combined with neroli, sweet orange and rosemary, makes your skin smell truly delicious. I won't take offence if you come up and sniff my face - I promise.

Lavender is one of the important elements that makes our Magic cream a real life changer.

With love,

Helen 🤍

🌿 FROM HELEN’S WORKSHOP

There is something very special about packing orders of Helen’s Magic Cream.

This was our first product, born from my own difficult skin journey and a wish for a rich, effective, natural cream I would genuinely love to use every day. After years of a literal battle with psoriasis on my hands, just two weeks of using my cream and the psoriasis was almost completely healed. I have been psoriasis free ever since.

Now, every time I wrap a tube and send it on its way, I think about the person who will open it. Over the years, I have received so many kind messages from customers telling me how much this little tube has come to mean to them. From eczema to dermatitis, nappy rash to shingles, allergic reactions to heat rash, this cream has soothed and cleared.

It is still our bestselling product—and, for me, it will always be the one that started English Scent.

Made with cocoa butter, shea butter, sweet almond oil, sunflower oil, vitamin E and the beautiful essential oils of neroli, sweet orange, rosemary and lavender, it is a deeply nourishing cream for face, hands and body. I still use it as my daily morning moisturiser.

Thank you for trusting us with your skin, and for supporting my small Dorset business. Every order still means the world.

With love,

Helen 🤍

A little pot of perfume that goes everywhere with you.

In this video, I’m showing just how simple our Solid Perfumes are to use. Warm a little with your fingertip, then apply to your pulse points—wrists, neck or inside your elbows—and let the fragrance settle beautifully on your skin.

I started making these because traditional alcohol perfumes were making my skin red, and I felt perfumes had become so expensive. I wanted something simple, affordable and lovely to use.

Each one is handmade in Dorset with sweet almond oil, beeswax and fragrance. They are alcohol-free, wonderfully compact and perfect for your handbag, pocket or holiday bag—no leaks, no glass spray bottles and no fuss.

We have 19 beautiful scents to choose from, including fragrances inspired by some much-loved perfume classics, all for just £9.50.

Which scent would you choose first?

🌿 Inside the Bottle - Sweet Almond Oil

It may not be the most glamorous ingredient on the shelf, but sweet almond oil is one of the quiet heroes of my workshop.

I use it in our solid perfumes and in much of our skincare—and for very good reason.

Sweet almond oil is a wonderful natural emollient, meaning it helps to soften and smooth the skin. Rich in skin-loving fatty acids, it leaves the skin feeling nourished, comfortable and beautifully supple.

It also has a naturally light, silky texture. In our solid perfumes, it glides easily across the skin and works with beeswax to hold the fragrance close to your pulse points—without the need for alcohol.

That is exactly what I love about it: it is simple, gentle and wonderfully versatile.

Sometimes the most effective ingredients are the ones nature has already perfected.

Love, Helen 🤍

🌿 From Helen's Workshop

I first started making solid perfumes because the alcohol in traditional perfume was making my skin red—and I simply couldn’t justify spending more than £100 on a bottle.

So I created something beautifully simple.

Sweet almond oil, beeswax and fragrance, carefully blended and poured by hand in my Dorset workshop.

Our solid perfumes are alcohol-free, gentle on the skin and wonderfully easy to use. Simply warm a little with your fingertip and apply it to your pulse points.

They’re small enough for your pocket or handbag, won’t spill and are perfect for taking on holiday.

There are now 19 different scents, including fragrances inspired by some much-loved perfume classics. And at just £9.50, you can afford to discover more than one favourite.

Many customers return for another—and another—which is perhaps the loveliest compliment we could receive.

Handmade in Dorset with love,
Helen 🤍

🌿 Product Focus

Sometimes the best products come from solving your own problem.

I originally created our Hair Growth Oil to help customers experiencing hair thinning after chemotherapy. Then menopause arrived... and suddenly I was making it for myself too.

Our brand new DHT Blocker Hair Growth Oil is our most advanced formula yet, with clinically researched Pumpkin Seed Oil at its heart, alongside twelve other beautiful botanical oils chosen to nourish your scalp and support fuller, healthier-looking hair.

The best part?

We've kept it at £19.50 because we believe exceptional natural products should be available to everyone.

If your hair isn't quite where you'd like it to be, I'd love you to give it a try.
