The key to any This Works Superblend is its 100% natural, responsibly sourced functional fragrance. This means that not only does each product smell amazing, the fragrance has been developed with a specific purpose in mind and the essential oils chosen accordingly. An early advocate for the power of aromatherapy, This Works' founder, Kathy Phillips, was inspired by modern aromatherapists Dr Jean Valnet and Micheline Arcier when creating her original product lineup to develop fragrances that were calming, motivating or pleasurable.

 

For use throughout the day, our Stress Check blend boasts Eucalyptus to help refresh, invigorate and counter physical and mental fatigue, Frankincense to help aid relaxation and Lavender Oil to help soothe nervous tension - blended to help clear the mind and reduce anxiety.

 

For the night phase, our award-winning Deep Sleep fragrance blend is the one. It includes Lavender to help relieve tension and aid deep relaxation, Camomile for helping stress relief and Vetivert to settle nerves and help with exhaustion. These three work together to create a calming environment for sleep and thereby support skin renewal.

 

For the morning phase, replace your usual cup of coffee with our Morning Expert collection. The functional fragrance is designed to energise you with Lavandin, Peppermint and Rosemary to help motivate and boost focus.
