Product Information
Fragrance
As many of our products as possible contain 100% essential oils. Where an essential oil doesn't exist, we use a high quality cosmetic grade fragrance oil to scent the product. For a full listing of the essential oils and fragrance oils used and the allergens in those oils, please see the appendix.
N.B Neroli Light Oil refers to Neroli Essential Oil diluted in jojoba carrier oil.
Soap Bases
We only use two SLS-free melt and pour bases - clear and white.
Salt
In our kitchen soaps and our range of herbal soaps, we use 100% pure Halen Môn Sea Salt that has been purified on Anglesey. Famous as a culinary salt, we use it as an extra purifier in these soaps. We also use it in our herbal range of hand washes!
Essential oil allergen content
Colouring
We use colourings only for our clear glycerine soaps (Rose Geranium, Neroli, Bergamot, Lavender & Lan Y Môr). These colourings have been especially selected for soap making and are aqueous
Candle Wax
We use 100% soy wax. This has a lower burn temperature than a lot of other waxes - which means that our candles burn for longer, give an even burn and don't create soot in the flame. The soy wax is a sustainable product.
Not tested on animals
We strictly don't test our products on animals, we have a queue of willing volunteers for that job!
Compliance
All manufacture is according to EU guidelines and GMP. This includes registration on the CPNP.
