Founded in 2006 by husband-and-wife duo Mark and Kira Walton, VOYA has become synonymous with Irish luxury, sustainability and innovation. Though launched in the mid-2000s, the brand’s roots trace back to 1912 in Strandhill, County Sligo.
VOYA products now feature in bathroom cabinets, travel bags, luxury spas and department stores in 42 countries worldwide, but their soul remains on Ireland’s wild Atlantic coast.
In the 1960s, those beloved baths closed following Ireland’s worst hurricane. Yet local farmer Michael Walton recognised the potential of the plentiful seaweed, using it to enrich crops and inspiring his son Neil to revive the tradition with his own seaweed bathing house.
Years later, Mark and Kira left corporate life behind to return home and create something rooted in nature. Their first product, the Lazy Days Detoxifying Seaweed Bath, contained only one ingredient – hand-harvested Fucus Serratus seaweed – designed to deliver the revitalising feeling of a seaweed bath straight to the home.
From this single product grew an international wellness movement. VOYA is now a centre of research and innovation, with skincare and wellness products cherished worldwide.
Specifically for men, the VOYA MAN range boasts must-haves from cooling shave gels to rejuvenating moisturisers, is scientifically proven and performance-led, improving skin firmness, reducing fine lines and delivering balance – all 100% organic, vegan and cruelty-free. For women, spa-level wellness is at their fingertips with products such as the Buoyancy Luxury Body Butter, Time To Shine Gentle Body Polish, and a range of luxury body oils. All feature fully renewable ingredients, sustainable packaging and eco-conscious practices.
VOYA’s Advanced Skincare range has won praise from customers and beauty editors alike, with results-driven, organic formulations that feel as luxurious as they are effective. Designed using powerful marine actives and cutting-edge natural science, the range offers products that deliver visible results while remaining gentle and sustainable, perfect for someone who loves skincare that performs without compromise.

If you’re looking to impress a partner, VOYA’s My Little Hero Facial Serum is a stand-out choice and co-owner Kira Walton's personal favourite. This lightweight yet deeply hydrating serum harnesses the antioxidant power of Fucus Serratus seaweed to nourish, strengthen and restore radiance. For something a little more performance-driven, VOYA’s Vitamin C Antioxidant Serum brightens skin, smooths and protects against environmental damage, making it an everyday favourite for women who want glowing, healthy skin. Both are beautifully packaged, indulgent to use, and carry VOYA’s signature touch of Atlantic-coast luxury.
In a busy and noisy world, VOYA products evoke calm, relaxation and a sense of home. Explore more online here.
