Uoga Uoga: Handmade organic make-up
Uoga Uoga means ‘berry berry’. The story of this natural cosmetics brand began with genuine friendship and real berries. Two young mothers enjoyed making fresh masks and creams for their families and themselves. They used wild berries and green herbs, which are not only an important part of their cosmetics but also of their childhood.
As more and more people asked where they could buy their cosmetics, they were not surprised. After all, they live in Lithuania, where people believe in the magic of nature. There are still true ancient forests, scattered with colorful berries. There is a wild sandy beach where you can walk. The two friends grew up there and applied these everyday (yet very special) experiences to their fresh, natural cosmetics collection.
Uoga Uoga: “When developing makeup products, we choose only natural and unrefined ingredients. Our products contain natural oils, clay, water, flowers, honey, and herbs that are gentle and effective, nourishing the skin. Our mineral makeup line is made from natural minerals and enriched by the Baltic Sea with ‘Baltic gold’, also known as amber. Women in the Baltic states have grown up with the belief that an amber bracelet or necklace can slow down the aging process. Now, research confirms that there is some truth to this. Amber acid (amber is the English word for the Dutch ‘barnsteen’) is packed with antioxidants that combat premature skin aging.”

People say that Uoga Uoga cosmetics smell like nature. And that’s true! They don’t use synthetic fragrances – only pure essential oils. Artificial fragrances can never replace the scent of nature. We believe that Uoga Uoga can make the world a bit cleaner, purer, and more beautiful.
Uoga Uoga is a bestseller!
Uoga Uoga: ‘Our products are a real hit in Lithuania. Uoga Uoga has won several awards, and we get very high evaluations from our customers. We have even received awards twice from the Ministry of Economic Affairs in Lithuania: in 2012 for ‘most successful young enterprise’ and in 2013 for ‘most inspiring female entrepreneurs’. That was exciting, especially when we were addressed personally by our President!
Even though we are now one of the foremost natural cosmetics manufacturers in Lithuania, we still produce all Uoga Uoga cosmetics by hand in small quantities, so that the makeup is always fresh. Uoga Uoga still makes cosmetics according to their own recipe, aromas and design. We still use real, hand-picked berries!
All the names given to the makeup are carefully chosen and are meant to cheer you up. Some products even have their own poem!
All of us can make the world a little cleaner, purer and more beautiful. Uoga Uoga not only inspires women to live healthier, but also to feel freer and stronger.’
Uoga Uoga is Soil Association certified, by the COSMOS Natural standard.
