Meet our Founders

I took this first balm to our local market in country Victoria almost 20 years ago. Despite my hand written signs, this was to be the launching pad for a strong customer demand for chemical free products to remedy their sensitive skin concerns. I listened to the stories people told me about their skin concerns and mum and I developed new products together to help them. I completed a diploma in skin and beauty along the way and before 'organic' was a buzzword, our family's 'Food For Your Skin' range had a loyal customer base in Australia and internationally who trusted the purity and effectiveness of our products.

Me at the local market in 2000 | The 1st Balm (c2000) | The QLEAN Kitchen 2019 |
We've come a long way since that first market.
In 2016, I embarked on a mission with my partner Maire who shares my belief in clean, natural living. We wanted to take our unique and proven formulations to the next level with the inclusion of safe, active ingredients. We sought the highest quality organic ingredients, worked with cosmetic chemists to improve our formulations and expanded our range. After 2 years in development, QLEAN was launched in July 2019. With QLEAN we offer you a new approach to botanical based skin care - Minimal formulations with the power of safe active ingredients to achieve real results - Clean Beauty That Works!
I hope you enjoy our range!
With Love, Greta Pickering
