Lore Botanicals
A story of trusting the path and creating something that was always waiting to be made
Nestled in the creative market town of Bridport, surrounded by the vast skies and wild beauty of West Dorset, you’ll find Lore Botanicals, a thoughtful skincare brand founded by Charli Rees, a former midwife with a lifelong love of herbs, nature and nurturing.
Charli’s blends are made slowly and simply in her home kitchen, guided by years of personal experience and a deep respect for traditional plant wisdom. Here’s her founder story.
The quiet rebels who are tearing up the whisky rulebook and being led by nature.
