Our founder, Dr. Simon Jackson, conducts all our research and development in-house. We focus on five core active ingredients, and collaborate with top R&D facilities at top-tier universities and research laboratories around the country.
from soil to skin
We carefully oversee every element of the Modern Botany supply chain so that we can provide the highest quality natural products, rooted in science and sustainability.
From in-house research and formulation, to sourcing the highest possible medicinal-grade ingredients, we are on a mission to redefine the standards of clean living. Our personal care products are 100% natural, minimalist and multi-tasking, designed to transform your daily routine.

sourcing
We source our medicinal-grade ingredients sustainably, all around the world. Our aim: to protect endangered species, give back to local communities and reduce our carbon footprint as we grow. We’re also invested in the principles of regenerative farming – we grow and harvest a handful of our core ingredients at our HQ in West Cork, where we also wild-forage seaweed.
formulation
All our ingredients are tested before entering the lab for formulation. Dr. Simon Jackson formulates all our products himself, while our stability and toxicity testing is carried out in partner labs. Of course, Modern Botany products are never tested on animals.
production
Modern Botany products are always produced either in Ireland, or in the UK. Our founders personally visit and select production facilities, to make sure they follow the Good Manufacturing Practice and are ISO quality-certified, and all production partners are experts in Cosmos Natural ingredients.
Quality control
Dr. Simon Jackson runs quality control tests at every step of the formulation process, to ensure that all our personal care products meet our stringent standards. Meanwhile, independent labs run clinical studies on all our key products, to ascertain their claims and product benefits, and our range is regulated by highly respected certification bodies. It is our mission to be B Corp-registered within the next two years.

Packaging
Sustainability and recyclability are key to Modern Botany packaging. We use recyclable glass bottles and Post Consumer Recycled (PCR) lids where possible. No virgin plastic will enter our supply chain going forward. Products are available in large family friendly refill editions saving more than 30% of packaging.

REFILL, RE-USE
Our essential Multi-Tasking Oil, an all-round solution to dry, sensitive skin, is now available in a family-friendly, 250ml refill-size edition, with a saving of more than 30% and less packaging to recycle than ever before. Each one comes with an empty 60ml bottle and a pump, to make the top-up process as easy as possible. And when it runs out? Fill it with flowers, or pop it in your local bottle bank.
