You have to be pretty sure of what you're dealing with to call a cosmetics brand "stable." Nick Jones, the creator of this one, was.  He had a beautiful hotel, Babington House, on a farm in the middle of sixteen acres of countryside where beauty treatments were carried out. According to Nick, there were no products for face, hair and body on the market that fit the natural philosophy of Babington House, as the (super-desirable) place was called.

Good old Jones decided to create his own products using herbs from his garden and essential oils from around the world. In 1998, Cowshed was born. The name was inevitable: beauty treatments were carried out in what had been a stable. Since then, Cowshed has grown without losing the irreverent and pampered air that Nick Jones gave it from the beginning. You have to be English to know how to have a cow as a cosmetic inspiration.
