QV Skincare is an iconic Australian brand that originated from a request by the dermatology ward of the Queen Victoria Hospital in Melbourne, which is where the name 'QV' comes from. It was specifically formulated to be a gentle, effective way to cleanse and moisturize sensitive skin without the use of common irritants like soap, fragrance, or lanolin.

The product is manufactured in Australia by Ego Pharmaceuticals, a family-owned company established in 1953 by chemist Gerald Oppenheim and his wife Rae. The brand has grown from its clinical roots into a household name, widely recommended by dermatologists for conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis. Today, the brand remains under the stewardship of the Oppenheim family, maintaining its production facilities in Braeside, Victoria, to ensure high standards of quality control for its global distribution network.
