Frequently asked questions
Why do you talk about watercress so much?
Because it is central to the brand story and ingredient journey. It is the natural starting point that leads to Watercress Active® and then to the finished formulas in the range.
Is Prof&Doc® more natural or more scientific?
Both. The brand starts with watercress as a botanical source and then builds finished skincare formulas with product-specific approved claims.
What do you mean by natural skincare that performs like science?
It means the products begin with a botanical source, but the benefits are described through approved finished-formula claims rather than vague natural language.
Does natural mean less effective?
Not here. Prof&Doc®’s positioning is that nature provides the botanical source, while science supports the finished formula and its approved product claims.
Is your watercress sustainably sourced?
Prof&Doc® says it uses excess harvest that would otherwise be discarded, helping turn surplus crop into skincare innovation.
Where does your watercress come from?
Prof&Doc® says its watercress is grown by trusted UK watercress farmers.
Is Watercress Active® natural?
Watercress Active® is a proprietary botanical extract derived from watercress and used throughout the Prof&Doc® range.
Does watercress itself give the skincare result?
No. In Prof&Doc®, watercress is the source plant, Watercress Active® is the extract, and the approved skincare results belong to the finished formula for each specific product.
Why not just say watercress is good for skin?
Because Prof&Doc® keeps the science precise. The raw plant, the extract and the finished product are treated as separate stages, so product benefits are only claimed where the finished formula has approved wording.
What is the difference between watercress and Watercress Active®?
Watercress is the raw plant. Watercress Active® is the refined proprietary extract derived from it. The skincare claims then sit at finished-product level, and vary by product.
Is watercress the ingredient in every product?
Every Prof&Doc® product contains Watercress Active®, which is the proprietary extract derived from watercress. The approved skincare benefits still sit with the finished product formula for each SKU.
What makes watercress special?
Watercress is known as one of nature’s most nutrient-dense greens, which makes it a strong botanical starting point for the brand. In Prof&Doc®, it is used as the source of Watercress Active®, not as a stand-alone skincare claim.
Is watercress natural?
Yes. Watercress is a leafy green botanical. Prof&Doc® starts with this natural plant source and then refines it into Watercress Active®, the proprietary extract used in the range.
Why does Prof&Doc® use watercress?
Watercress is the botanical starting point of the Prof&Doc® journey. It is one of nature’s most nutrient-dense leafy greens, and Prof&Doc uses it as the source plant from which Watercress Active® is derived. Product benefits are then described at finished-formula level, not assumed from the raw plant.
How long does the 50ml jar last with daily use?
With daily use, or morning and night use as needed, a 50ml bottle should typically last around 6–8 weeks. Lighter once-daily use may stretch longer.
Does it leave a residue on clothes?
We recommend allowing it to absorb before dressing. Because fabrics vary, it is best to let it sink in fully first.
Can children use this moisturiser?
It is designed as an everyday body moisturiser. For children or anyone with very sensitive skin, we recommend checking with a healthcare professional before use.
Is the bottle recyclable?
Prof&Doc packaging is recyclable and sourced in the UK.
Does it absorb quickly or feel greasy?
It is a richer body moisturiser, but it is designed to absorb well and leave skin feeling comfortable rather than overly greasy.
Does it contain any common allergens?
If you have known sensitivities, please check the full ingredient list on the product page before use.
What does Watercress Active® actually do?
In this finished formula, Watercress Active® sits within a product approved to lock in hydration, strengthen the skin barrier and provide 12-hour moisturisation.

EVERYTHING STARTS WITH WATERCRESS

Watercress Active®

Most people know watercress as a salad leaf. It's also one of the most studied plants in nature - one of only a few plants to score a perfect 100% on the CDC's nutrient index.

We spent over a decade asking what it could do for skin. The answer is Watercress Active®: an aqueous botanical extract, refined through a patented process in our own biorefinery in Exeter, and created by a team led by an NHS doctor and a University Professor.

It's the reason every Prof&Doc® product exists - clinically proven, designed for skin, and made with Watercress Active® at 10% across the range, and 93% in our Reviving Watercress Face Serum.
