OUR INGREDIENTS AND VALUES
We all know fruits, vegetables and plants are good for our health. We believe they are great for our skin too. Please read on for lots of information on our ingredients and our ethos.
We believe in making products that everyone can enjoy, using the freshest ingredients possible. We get new deliveries every week of essential oils, moisturising butters, dried botanicals, base oils, floral extracts and much more. We have long standing relationships with our suppliers and our ingredients can be traced right back to the source.
We believe in the power of nature and natural ingredients. You can find 100% natural products in our range, fragrance free products, as well as brightly coloured and fragranced products too. One thing is for sure, all of our ingredients are considered very carefully for their benefits to you and your skin.
We work with a qualified cosmetic chemist to make sure all of our formulas are legally safe and certified as such. Our chemist looks at the quantities of ingredients we use and makes sure they are at safe levels in our products, both in our normal ranges and in our baby range too.
WE ARE A VEGAN COMPANY AND WE DO NOT USE ANY ANIMAL BASED INGREDIENTS IN OUR PRODUCTS.
Each and every ingredient we use is cruelty free. Our supply chain is audited yearly by Cruelty Free International (the Leaping Bunny logo), so you can be sure our ingredients come from ethical sources that do not test on animals.
We are an independent company that is not owned by a larger corporation and we absolutely refuse to sell our products in countries that require animal testing on products to be sold, regardless of the profit involved.
We only buy ingredients from ethical suppliers that pay growers fairly for their produce. All of our suppliers are based in the UK and the majority of our ingredients are manufactured here too. The clay in our face masks comes from Cornwall and our activated charcoal comes from a sustainable purpose built source in Devon!
Our suppliers adhere to strict health, safety and hygiene guidelines when processing our ingredients, following and gaining ISO standards and certifications.
We do use nut based ingredients in some of our products, specifically coconuts and almonds. The factories that supply our nut based ingredients do also process peanuts, so we cannot guarantee that our products do not carry a risk to people with a nut allergy of any kind.
Our fabulous artificial fragrances are created specifically for us by a leading fragrance house in the UK, with a low allergen content in mind. Allergens can irritate sensitive skin, and artificial perfumes can cause problems for some people. All of our fragrances contain low allergen levels and some are totally allergen free!
