This Works is a London-based, mid-sized personal care product manufacturer founded in 2003 by Kathy Phillips, who previously led beauty coverage for Vogue UK and has worked as an international journalist. The company develops skincare and wellbeing offerings designed to align with the body's daily rhythms, supporting skin performance around the clock while minimizing unnecessary chemicals and favoring cleaner ingredient choices over sulfates, phthalates, GMOs, and parabens. Its products aim to address how lifestyle can affect skin health, offering targeted solutions that can function across a 24-hour cycle. In the personal care industry, This Works positions itself within the cleaner-ingredients segment and emphasizes science-informed skincare tied to circadian biology. The company has pursued partnerships and initiatives across channels, including collaborations with the Royal Academy of Dance and Beauty Bars on P&O cruise ships, and has launched vegan and cruelty-free Stress Check as well as a CBD Booster skincare line. In 2026, Own Time Eau De Parfum received recognition as Best New Woody Perfume by Marie Claire, signaling ongoing product development beyond its core skincare range.
