A true adventurer, creating skincare for explorers
Meet Our Founder
Clivina Wills, a passionate nature lover and adventure seeker, was frustrated by bulky, water-heavy skincare products that were impractical for travel and harmful to the environment. Combining her skills as a qualified natural skincare formulator with her love of the outdoors, she set out to create a range that solves these problems. The result? Lightweight, multi-use, eco-conscious skincare that travels as well as you do.
After over a year of research and formulation with chemists, Clivina developed products that are concentrated, dual-purpose, and completely safe for nature. From the hair & body wash to the sunscreen & insect repellent, each product is designed to reduce waste, simplify your routine, and protect your skin wherever your adventures take you. As she says, “From Nature, for Nature.”
Built for real outdoor life
Why Explorers Choose Us
When space is limited and conditions are unpredictable, your skincare shouldn’t hold you back. Each of our travel-ready products delivers natural, powerful protection—so you can focus on the adventure, not your gear.
Adventure-Ready Design
Created for life outdoors, our products are lightweight, compact, and easy to use in changing conditions—whether you’re hiking, riding, swimming, or travelling light.
Skin & Planet Friendly
Formulated with natural, gentle ingredients that are kind to your skin and safe for the environments you explore, without harsh chemicals or unnecessary fillers.
Simple, Effective Care
No complicated routines or excess products. Just essential skincare that works reliably wherever your adventures take you every day.
Less bulk. Less waste. More purpose.
Designed for Adventure, Inspired by Nature
You only need the essentials that truly work.
We believe outdoor skincare should be practical, effective, and kind to the environments we explore. That’s why our products are designed to replace bulky, water-heavy alternatives with concentrated and dual-purpose solutions that travel light and perform reliably outdoors.
By using carefully selected natural ingredients and eco-conscious formulations, we reduce unnecessary waste without compromising on skin protection or comfort. Every product is created to simplify your routine, protect your skin in changing conditions, and leave no harmful trace behind—so you can explore with confidence and care.
Used wherever the journey leads
Adventure-Tested Around the World
Our products aren’t designed in theory—they’re shaped by real travel, real challenges, and real outdoor conditions. From remote mountain trails and coastal swims to long-distance rides and off-grid camps, our skincare has been tested in diverse environments around the world. Every formulation is built to perform reliably when access to comfort, space, and supplies is limited.
Each journey helps refine what we create. Feedback from explorers, swimmers, hikers, and overlanders guides continuous improvement, ensuring our products protect skin, reduce unnecessary bulk, and remain easy to use in changing conditions. No matter the destination, our focus stays the same—simple, effective skincare that supports adventure, not complicates it.
Making Waves in the Outdoor Industry
UK Outdoor Industry Awards 2023 – A Milestone Moment
At The Intrepid Explorer, we’ve always believed in embracing challenges and pushing limits. Participating in the UK’s largest outdoor trade exhibition in 2023 was both humbling and inspiring. Surrounded by established brands with decades of experience, we gave it our all—sharing our vision for eco-friendly, adventure-ready skincare and connecting with a community of passionate outdoor enthusiasts. Since launching our innovative powdered hair & body wash in October 2022, we’ve been dedicated to learning, growing, and spreading the word about products that keep adventurers fresh, protected, and ready for anything.
Our hard work was recognized when we became a finalist in the Accessories Category for the UK Outdoor Industry Awards 2023, alongside two other exceptional brands. With the final vote in the hands of the public, we are calling on our community to help us reach the top. This achievement reflects not only the quality and innovation of our products but also the power of perseverance, passion, and community support. Experiences like this reinforce our commitment to creating sustainable, travel-ready skincare while inspiring explorers to keep venturing further—leaving lasting memories, not lasting environmental impact.
