About Us

Rooted in Nature,
Crafted with Care

NIMFEA is a London-based natural skincare brand founded by Felicia Bottomley — an aromatherapist, certified cosmetic product maker, and beauty and holistic therapist with 25 years of experience.

Our Story

From Water Lilies
to Wellbeing

NIMFEA takes its name from Nymphaea, the scientific genus name for true water lilies — a flower traditionally associated with purity, renewal, sunlight and creation. Rooted in nature, the name reflects a gentle connection to wellbeing, balance and natural beauty.

We began producing these cosmetic products in 2014. All products are fully certified, supported by a CPSR (Cosmetic Product Safety Report) and maintained with a detailed, up-to-date Product Information File (PIF).
