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.
What is the difference between the Body Lotion and the Intensive Body Moisturiser?
The Body Lotion is the lighter everyday hydrator with up to 6 hours of hydration. The Intensive Body Moisturiser is the richer option for dry and sensitive skin, with 12-hour moisturisation and skin-barrier support.
Can I use the Body Lotion on my face?
No. It is formulated as a body lotion rather than a face product, but we have a specific range of products designed specifically for the face.
How much product do I need per application?
This depends on the body area you are applying it to and how much hydration you prefer.
Will one bottle last a month with daily use?
With once-daily use over key body areas, a 100ml bottle should typically last around 2–4 weeks. Full-body or twice-daily use will shorten that.
Does it contain parabens or sulfates?
The published ingredient list does not show parabens or sulfates.
Will it irritate sensitive skin?
It is dermatologically tested and suitable for skin that may be prone to eczema. If you have known sensitivities, patch test first.
Is the 100ml size travel-friendly for carry-on?
Yes. A 100ml bottle is generally within the current UK hand-luggage liquid limit, although airport rules can still vary, so it is worth checking before you travel.
Does it work for very dry winter skin?
It hydrates and smooths the skin, but very dry skin may prefer the Intensive Watercress Body Moisturiser.
What does Watercress Active® actually do for skin?
In this finished formula, Watercress Active® sits within a product approved to hydrate, smooth and increase skin moisture immediately.
Can I layer it under sunscreen or makeup?
This is a body lotion rather than a face product. For facial layering under sunscreen or makeup, the Face Cream is the better fit.

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.

Where nature meets science.
