dr. pawpaw

Dr. PawPaw is a family-owned beauty brand with one of the most heartfelt origin stories in the industry. Founded in 2013 by husband-and-wife duo Johnny and Pauline Paterson after their baby daughter Jasmine suffered from severe eczema, the brand was built on a search for a natural alternative to steroid creams. Today the brand has been honoured with a King's Award for Enterprise for International Trade, with a full range of lip, skin, and hair care products sold in over 35 countries.

Dr. PawPaw's cult status is built on a tight edit of genuinely brilliant multipurpose products. The Original Balm is where it all started, a fragrance-free, 98% natural formula packed with pawpaw, aloe vera, and castor oil that works on lips, skin, cuticles, and hair in one. For a hint of colour alongside the nourishment, the Tinted Peach Pink Balm delivers the same skin-loving formula with a buildable, flattering wash of colour that suits virtually every skin tone. The Lip and Eye Balm takes the hero formula into more targeted territory, soothing and hydrating the delicate eye and lip area with the same gentle, natural ingredients. And for an intensive overnight treatment, the Overnight Lip Mask works while you sleep to deeply condition and restore dry or chapped lips by morning.

Absolutely, and it's one of the things that sets the brand apart. The multipurpose balms aren't just for lips and skin; a small amount worked through the ends tames frizz, seals split ends, and adds a healthy shine without any greasiness. For a more dedicated hair care experience, the It Does It All 7-in-1 Hair Treatment Styler takes the brand's multi-tasking philosophy to the next level, combining heat protection, frizz control, hydration, and shine in a single lightweight formula that works across all hair types.

Beyond the iconic balms, Dr. PawPaw has expanded into a full skincare offering built on the same clean, natural philosophy. The 4-in-1 Face Serum delivers brightening, hydrating, and smoothing benefits in a single lightweight formula, while the Day Cream with PA++++ SPF50 provides daily sun protection without any heavy or greasy finish.

Absolutely! All Dr. PawPaw products are cruelty-free and vegan-friendly, created with sustainable and natural ingredients, and housed in eco-conscious packaging. Formulas are 98% natural and gluten-free, making them a solid choice for conscious beauty shoppers.
