Our Story

Made for and by courageous women

We have heart. Which is stronger than balls. 

The word courage comes from the Latin for heart (cor) and old French, meaning full of heart.  And that’s where Bare Biology comes from. The heart. Founded by and run by women. Courageous women who deal with all the same stuff as you. 

Women, by nature as givers and protectors of life and as a result of our history and society, are courageous every day. Walking home at night in the dark, smiling through intense period pain and heavy bleeding in a meeting room or classroom, standing firm in a doctor’s surgery when we’re being dismissed and told “not to Google stuff”. Although never courageous enough to tell a hairdresser they don’t like the hair cut. Yes, looks lovely thanks (goes away and cries).

It takes a lot of courage to start, and run, a business. 

People often ask me “how do you do it”? I have to pull my big-girl pants on everyday and be a role model for my children and my team. Even when I’ve had no sleep (lifelong insomniac) or am a bag of anxiety. But, I absolutely love what we do here and this business I built.  They also ask “why did you do it”?

I did it because I was hacked off. I was looking for fish oil when I was ill with postnatal depression and OCD. I was fed up with the lack of transparency around ingredients, sources, purity and business ethics in general. So, I did what a lot of women do (right?), and I just bloody did it myself.

We sell what we believe in, not what’s trending

Since we launched in 2013, the supplements industry has exploded. So has the amount of companies capitalising on your health needs. Millions are spent on advertising and marketing to persuade you to buy. So why choose us? 

We’re a small, growing brand with no investors to keep happy. Just ourselves, our families and you to answer to. Health and happiness are what we care about.

Being independent is our superpower. Selling out to some big corporate down the line just doesn’t interest us. What does? More important things like great ingredients, customer service, and prioritizing our well-being over burnout. 

We sell what we believe in, not what’s trending. So don’t expect weight-loss teas or double-dose recommendations to win us a quick buck. Our supplements are inspired by what you need and formulated with what works. And we know that because we and our families use them.

Why Bare Biology?

1

We’re mothers, daughters and questioners

We’re regular people just like you. Not men in suits in big corporates who sell things just because they sell. We sell things we have scrutinised, and agonised over. Products we truly love, use ourselves and give to our families. We think women’s health is appallingly served, and we don’t have to just accept it. We’re on a mission to make women’s lives, of all ages, better.

Everything laid bare

Tis why we’re called ‘Bare’ Biology, after all. Marketing lies and more marketing lies. Not here. Want to know the ingredients and where they’re from? Want to see our test results? Want proof our products are what we claim them to be? Need proof of our sustainability claims? Absolutely yes. That’s what you get here.

We’ll actually listen to you, and won’t lie to you

Too many businesses take their customers for granted, and some treat them like dirt. If you read our Trustpilot reviews, you’ll see the love our customer service team gets. And it’s our policy to do whatever it takes to make things right. Sometimes we all cock up (especially delivery companies, ahem). Need a bit of help or nutrition advice? Speak to us.
