expert advice

"True joy comes from finding the things that feel really good to your body and that bring you a sense of purpose and happiness. This could be dancing, yoga or applying your favourite bodycare."

geek mode

Small moments of joy, like laughing with loved ones or cuddling a pet, activates our parasympathetic nervous system and releases dopamine and serotonin. Dopamine has been associated with reward and pleasure seeking and is known as the 'motivation molecule'. Serotonin is associated with mood regulation and is best known for eliciting feelings of happiness.

There are over 3000 studies worldwide relating to self-compassion and the benefits it has on both our mental and physical health. Being self-critical towards our body leads to greater levels of body dissatisfaction, self-hatred, and low self-esteem and activates the sympathetic nervous system, our fight or flight response. This increases cortisol in our bodies, which can lead to stress and inflammation impacting both our mental and physical health.

Great relief can come from simply affirming that you are experiencing suffering, a difficult but natural part of life, and stating your intention to be kind, patient, or accepting of yourself.

Acknowledge when you're suffering or being self-critical and take a moment to follow this simple self-compassion practice linked below.

clinically tested

Our Perfect Functional Fragrance has been tested in an fMRI brain imaging study which indicated the potential to activate areas of the brain associated with reward, memory and emotion.*

geek mode

Our Functional Fragrances are tested against a placebo and measured in clinical studies using fMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging) and ECG (electrocardiogram). Our Functional Fragrances can be seen as having additional physiological benefits, due to interaction with the limbic system, which in turn can stimulate the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. As part of a programme to understand how different aromas can stimulate different emotional responses, This Works, in collaboration with Professor Gaby Badre, identified a library of Functional Fragrances shown to have a relationship with emotions, such as joy (Perfect), relaxation and reward (Love Sleep), alertness (Morning Expert) and stress reduction (Stress Check).

Our Perfect Functional Fragrance has been clinically tested using fMRI brain imaging, which indicated the fragrance activated areas of the brain associated with reward, memory and emotion*.

Studies into the fascinating nose-brain connection have shown that your sense of smell has a direct hotline to some of the most important areas of the brain. The lining of the nose contains 50 million olfactory neurons, which receive and transmit signals and carry information directly to the limbic system in the brain. This system, consisting of the hippocampus, hypothalamus and amygdala — helps control numerous voluntary, endocrine (hormonal) and visceral (instinctive) responses to the world around us and is also a key player in our emotional health and wellbeing. This Works is one of the first brands to understand the relationship between aromas and neurological responses and have led the way in the field of neuro-cosmetics. Our independent, peer-reviewed scientific paper and large scale independent user studies have proven that specific essential oils with a unique make-up of terpenes (the aromatic building blocks of essential oils) and other molecules can help manage feelings of stress, fatigue, lack of concentration and help enhance feelings of pleasure, intimacy.

Our Perfect Functional Fragrance has been clinically tested using fMRI brain imaging, which indicated the fragrance activated areas of the brain associated with reward, memory and emotion*. Using this functional aroma means that taking regular time to care for your body is not only good for your mood through the physical aspect of finding time for yourself, or the ingredients that nourish, care for and protect your skin, but it is also physiologically beneficial for boosting your mood.

Vitamin C

Brightens, evens and protects skin with slow-release Vitamin C, leaving it looking youthful, radiant and revived.
shop Vitamin C

geek mode

Vitamin C esters are a stabilised form of Vitamin C derived from ascorbic acid and potato or corn starch. The glucoside ensures that Vitamin C is gradually released into the skin, enabling it to combat free radicals and UV damage, which contribute to premature ageing. This slow-release mechanism allows Vitamin C to effectively brighten the skin, enhance collagen production and improve skin suppleness.

Vitamin C offers numerous benefits for healthier, youthful skin. It promotes collagen synthesis, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, while also protecting the skin from environmental damage. It helps brighten the complexion, reduce skin roughness and alleviate inflammation, all of which contribute to a more radiant and rejuvenated appearance.

Additionally, it is effective in treating hyperpigmentation and dark spots by inhibiting melanin production. This helps to even out skin tone, lighten age spots and freckles, and reduce pigmentation, leaving the skin looking smoother and more even.

Vitamin B12

Soothes sensitive skin, supports regeneration, reduces inflammation, protects the skin barrier and enhances overall skin vibrancy.

geek mode

Vitamin B12 naturally imparts a pink hue to our products while providing powerful skin benefits. As an essential water-soluble vitamin, it supports the skin's microbiome, helping protect and restore the skin's health. B12 plays a key role in DNA synthesis and cellular metabolism, which contributes to faster skin cell recovery and regeneration, making the skin appear more vibrant.

This vitamin is particularly effective in relieving sensitive, stressed or inflamed skin. It helps soothe conditions like redness, irritation and cracked skin, while also protecting against photodamage and inflammation. B12 strengthens the skin barrier, reducing damage caused by inflammation and helping prevent further irritation.

Vitamin B12 also has notable anti-inflammatory properties. It reduces inflammatory markers like cytokines and inhibits mast cell degranulation, lowering histamine release and providing relief for conditions like atopic dermatitis. We use it to promote healthier, more resilient skin.

Hyaluronic Acid

Quenches thirsty skin by providing deep and adaptive hydration. Skin appears plumper, smoother and revitalised.
shop Hyaluronic Acid

geek mode

Hyaluronic Acid is a powerful yet gentle hydrating ingredient that can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water. Its small molecules penetrate deep into the skin, replenishing lost moisture in the dermis, which helps combat wrinkles and signs of ageing. As the skin naturally loses water with age, Hyaluronic Acid helps restore hydration, maintaining skin elasticity and smoothness.

This ingredient is particularly effective in adapting to environmental conditions, adjusting moisture absorption based on humidity levels. It also protects skin from UV-induced damage by scavenging reactive oxygen species, helping to prevent sunspots and age spots. This deep hydration promotes better microcirculation, which further enhances skin health and vitality.

By increasing water content in the skin, Hyaluronic Acid helps to give your complexion, a plumper, smoother and firmer appearance. Its derivative, Sodium Hyaluronate, has long been used for its moisturising and wound-healing properties, further enhancing its role in promoting healthy, youthful skin.

Shea Butter

A luxuriously rich moisturiser that soothes and protects dry skin, repairing damage from environmental aggressors while providing essential hydration.

geek mode

Shea Nut Butter, also known as Karite butter, is derived from the cold-pressed fruits of the shea tree (Butyrospermum parkii), native to Central Africa. The process of harvesting Shea Butter is labour-intensive, as these trees take 15 to 20 years to bear fruit, yielding only a small amount of butter per harvest. At room temperature, Shea Butter appears as a creamy white or off-white solid, renowned for its rich, buttery texture.

Renowned for its deeply moisturising, skin-soothing and replenishing properties, Shea Butter helps to protect dry and cracked skin. It is highly effective in providing relief from environmental aggressors such as pollution and UV radiation.

By creating a barrier that locks in moisture, its unique plant molecules help to repair damage and restore skin’s natural resilience.
