At Oyu Botanica, we believe skincare should do more than moisturize—it should tell a story. Our brand was born from a desire to preserve, celebrate, and reimagine the ancient beauty rituals of Mongolia, where nature has always been both harsh and healing.
In the vast steppes of Mongolia, nomadic families faced extreme climates that demanded practical, nourishing skin solutions. They turned to the land—and the animals they lived alongside—for ingredients that protected, healed, and sustained.
These remedies weren’t just routines. They were rituals passed down through generations—from healer to herder, from grandmother to granddaughter.
Goat milk was used for gentle cleansing—naturally rich in lactic acid and vitamins A & D, it softened and brightened even the driest skin.
Beef tallow, rendered from grass-fed animals, was a powerful barrier against wind and cold, mimicking the skin’s own lipid structure to deeply moisturize and repair.
At Oyu Botanica, we honor these traditional ingredients by incorporating their benefits into refined, modern formulations that are clean, ethical, and effective.
Growing wild across Mongolia, seabuckthorn has been a healing staple in traditional medicine for centuries. The bright orange berries are packed with over 190 bioactive compounds, including omega-7, vitamin C, and antioxidants.
Used traditionally to soothe wounds and sun damage, seabuckthorn oil is now recognized for its ability to:
Rejuvenate tired skin
Boost collagen production
Reduce redness and irritation
We cold-press this golden oil into several of our core products—delivering generations of wisdom in every drop.
Oyu Botanica isn’t just a skincare brand—it’s a bridge. We’re reconnecting people with cultural knowledge, land-based rituals, and ingredients that have stood the test of time.
Every product we create is:
Inspired by Mongolian heritage
Crafted with natural, effective ingredients
Designed for modern skin needs
We’re proud to tell a story that’s been missing in the clean beauty space—and invite you to be part of it.
