about us

Freckle was born from a lifelong love of beauty, storytelling and skin.

My journey began as an intern at Good Housekeeping Magazine on the wonderfully electric Carnaby Street in London. Those early morning walks to work were filled with excitement and promise. My days were spent unboxing the latest beauty trends, editing seasonal photoshoots with a magnifying glass (not a laptop), and calling for the season’s must-have nail colour from the beauty editor’s desk. I tried everything!

After spending more than 20 years working across beauty brands and retail, I had the luxury of becoming a bit of a guinea pig. With sensitive freckle-faced skin, I was always searching for the one - a moisturiser that truly worked, but I never quite found it. Heavy layers and complicated routines never felt like the right fit for me. I’ve always believed in natural beauty and the quiet confidence of bare-faced skin.

In 2022, I stumbled across rosehip oil and something shifted. What began as curiosity quickly turned into experimentation. I started formulating my own products with natural, locally sourced ingredients. The process felt intuitive, creative and deeply rewarding.

And so, freckle. was born.

A brand rooted in simplicity, integrity, and skin that feels cared for. We’re creating something we truly believe in, and we hope you’ll fall in love with it as much as we have.
