Our Philosophy

Animal Testing
We do not use any ingredients derived from animals except honey and goat milk which are products naturally produced by animals without causing them harm. We do not test our products on animals but on human volunteers who suffer from a wide variety of skin conditions. Feedback from our customers is valued and welcome.

Fair Trade
We support the FairTrade principles and believe that peoples' labour deserves a fair price. We do not knowingly source our raw materials from any company that exploits its own suppliers or workforce.

Herbalism
We work closely with qualified and registered medical herbalists in formulating our products. The knowledge that mankind has amassed over centuries about plants and their healing actions is a valuable legacy from many different cultures and traditions. However, we strongly recommend that anyone with a health problem that is seeking an alternative remedy, should contact a medical herbalist or other qualified healthcare practitioner. This is particularly important for anyone considering taking herbs internally as some may have contraindications with pregnancy, other medications and other medical conditions.

Organic Ingredients
Wherever possible we use organic herbs and oils. This means that the plants have not been adulterated with pesticides or other farming chemicals and are certified organic by a reputable body, such as The Soil Association. Wildcrafted herbs that are not farmed are tested for chemical residues and rejected if found to contain them.

Returns Policy
We will always return a product that you are not satisfied with. Please go to the feedback page for a returns form and the returns address.

Waste Management
We recycle as much of our waste as possible, such cartons, cardboard, bubble wrap and plastic buckets. We do not dispose of any of our waste in a way that is irresponsible or knowing harmful to the environment. Our manufacturing processes do not produce any by-products that need to be disposed of.

Wildcrafting
Some of the herbs we use are collected from the wild or 'wildcrafted' and sourced from reputable companies with good reputations for environmental management and who conduct quality control testing. We avoid using endangered species.

We believe that skin complaints are inextricably linked to the environment that we live in.

Our skin is sensitive to pollution, artificial ingredients in skin care products and textiles, poor diet, water treatment chemicals, dust and other by-products of modern living.

We are committed to producing simple, natural, vegetable based products that are as additive-free as possible.

And while we also try to have as little negative impact on the environment as we can, we also actively seek to enhance it wherever we have the opportunity.
