Our Story

Introduction to the Owners

Hello, we are Stephen Scarman and Robert Mars, this is our story of why we started The PÜRE Collection.

Our journey began in the foothills of the Atlas Mountains, Morocco in our PÜRE Spa retreat, set in a landscape of argan trees and prickly pear cacti and in our award-winning boutique hotel in Marrakech.

We would have continued happily as we were, had it not been what happened that changed our lives forever.

How it started

Our story began by simply walking past a public statue being cleaned and thinking nothing of it, why would we? But what if those cleaning products had the power to harm or even kill you? 

Shortly after walking past a statue being cleaned, Stephen was  diagnosed with Cryptogenic Organizing Pneumonia (COP) a rare lung disease that can trigger a severe immune response. 

After much testing, the cause was believed to be his exposure to the harsh cleaning chemicals.

The Pure Collection

Thankfully Stephen received excellent care only to fall ill again, this time with cancer which after chemotherapy and many side effects, he has now recovered from.

The Synthetic Face of Beauty

Shaken by what happened, we looked closely into the chemicals used in skincare – our area of greatest impact.

We were surprised to find that even the most expensive and premium skincare brands used man-made chemicals and synthetic ingredients. 

This determined us to make a difference by creating a pure, healthy and beneficial natural skincare.

We already used natural oils in our formulations at our Hotel and Spa, but we discovered this was not enough.

We wanted to ensure our products were even better, the ingredients had to be organically grown as nature intended, in soil, free from toxic pesticides and not sprayed with potentially poisonous chemicals.

Choosing to use organic ingredients was an easy decision, but to put into practice we decided to go one step further, to source and use certified organic ingredients whenever possible as it is our ethos to guarantee authenticity and quality to our customers.

We are proud that we do take these extra steps knowing that our customers are getting the finest products available and from good working environments for the people and communities where our ingredients are grown. 

PhytoHealth

Never ones to sit still, we are constantly creating new oil blends and formulations.

We created PhytoHealth™, our botanical range created to give your skin transformative care, with results you see and feel.

Our Mission

Our story of The PÜRE Collection is never ending, it is our mission to give you a premium, clean, sustainable and healthy organic skincare brand.
