Comfortable, healthy, quietly glowing skin.
It starts with one featherlight golden serum. Cold-pressed rosehip, seabuckthorn and aloe — plants your skin already knows — blended by a scientist on the west coast of Ireland to calm, feed and quench in a single, lovely step. Good for your skin, and good to use.
Cold-pressed rosehip, seabuckthorn & aloe. Only the plants your skin recognises — nothing it doesn't need.
Vegan & cruelty-free, made in Ireland, poured into recyclable glass. Kind, the whole way down.
A dry-touch oil that melts in in seconds. No grease, no synthetic scent — just a quiet moment that's yours.
A minute that feels as good as it works
Two little pumps, pressed into skin morning and night. The golden oil drinks straight in, never sits greasy, and turns a step in your routine into a quiet moment that's yours.

Made by hand, on the west coast of Ireland
Kinvara began in 2012, when scientist Dr Joanne Reilly couldn't find skincare that actually worked for her own tricky skin — without costing a fortune or being full of things she didn't want on it. So she made her own.
Having seen first-hand abroad just how powerful plants can be, she blended the very first 24hr Rosehip Serum by hand at her kitchen table — and named the brand after Kinvara, the small Galway town on the Atlantic where it all began.
“I wanted every product to do real good for your skin — and to feel like a little bit of looking after yourself.”
What your skin is telling you
Dry and dehydrated skin feel almost the same — but they're two very different asks. Once you know which is which, it's easy to see why the right plant oils make such a difference.
Your skin is short on water — and any skin can be, even oily. Weather, heating and busy weeks pull it out faster than it comes back. It's asking for help holding on to moisture.
Your skin is short on the oils it's naturally low on. It can't make quite enough to stay soft and springy, so it's asking you to top up the nourishment.
Dehydrated skin wants water
Dehydration isn't a skin type — it's a passing mood. When the day's been long, the heating's been on, or you've over-done the exfoliating, skin loses water faster than it can replace it and starts to feel tight and look a little flat.
Because it's a moment, not a make-up, it can happen to anyone — dry, oily or in-between. The good news: it's the easy one to put right.
- ◆Tight and papery right after cleansing
- ◆Shiny on top, but still tight underneath
- ◆Fine, crepey lines that appear then soften
- ◆A dull look, and make-up that sits unevenly
Dry skin wants oil
Dry skin is a type — it's how you're made. It simply doesn't produce quite enough of the nourishing oils that keep the surface soft, springy and comfortable. Without them, skin flakes, feels rough and loses a little of its bounce.
It tends to run in the family, stays with you, and gets thirstier still in cold, dry weather. What it's really asking for is a top-up of the good oils it can't make enough of on its own.
- ◆Flaking, or rough, papery patches
- ◆Tight across the whole face, not just the cheeks
- ◆A dull look and fine lines that linger
- ◆Rarely gets oily, even in the T-zone
Made to sit happily in any routine
Because thirst can visit any skin, the 24hr Rosehip Serum was built to feel right whatever yours is doing today.
Not sure? Ask your skin three gentle questions
You can be a little of both at once — but these three point you to whichever is louder today.
Gently pinch a cheek. If it creases into fine lines and is slow to spring back, your skin is telling you it's thirsty.
Notice your T-zone. Tight and shiny in places? That's thirsty. Tight and never oily? Lean dry.
Does it flake? Rough patches that stay all year round mean your skin is genuinely dry — hungry for oil.
Real skin, really loving it
In an independent 2024 consumer trial, people felt the difference in how hydrated, nourished and cared-for their skin felt after just 30 days.
