About ishga Organic Skincare

ishga’s (Scottish Gaelic for 'water') journey began simply with a passion for beauty, science and seaweed. Malcolm, a scientist, his wife Joanna, a beauty therapist, and their friend Martin, a seaweed expert, set out to create organic skincare that harnessed the antioxidants and anti-ageing properties in the pure seaweed that grows in abundance on Scotland's North Atlantic shores. Malcolm cleverly designed a seaweed extraction process that is still the cornerstone of the entire ishga range. This mineral rich powder is blended with organic ingredients and beautiful essential oils to create our natural organic skincare, which continues to gain popularity and gather more awards every year. Our Anti-oxidant Marine Face Cream was the very first product to be developed, and it remains our best selling ‘hero product’. So, from humble beginnings in Stornoway on the Isle of Lewis, ishga is now sending a little bit of Hebridean bliss across the world. The results of our skincare are hard to ignore, and the allure of the pure shores of Lewis are equally difficult to resist. In each bottle or jar there’s that same sense of natural purity, freshness and calm. Our aim is to bring it to as many happy customers across the world as we can, and we’re on track to do just that.Read their story
