A new range of fragrance oils has joined our air freshener collection!

Our felt air fresheners are a popular choice for cars, wardrobes, and caravans. While the unique designs always catch eyes in-store, many of you mentioned that the current fragrance bottles were a bit too large for your needs.

To solve that, I have been testing a new 5ml size in-store and since introducing it, the scents and air-fresheners have been flying off the shelves.

I have finally photographed the new fragrance bottles and fresh scents, and they are now also live on the website.

Available on their own, or as a discounted add-on whenever you buy an air freshener.

The larger 20ml bottles are still available to purchase or add-on, but these will retire as they sell out.

One of the things I miss most about our old home was the enormous bathtub 🛀
Our new home was renovated by the previous owners and one of the things they did was remove the bathtub 😢 Although I miss running a warm bath and hiding away with a glass of w**e and a good book for a while, I don't miss cleaning the thing 😆
But everytime I have to restock the Bath Soak, I have a little cry about no longer being able to enjoy them myself.
Unwind is our most popular Bath Soak and features a blend of sea and epsom salt along with Lemongrass, Calendula and Oat.

Did you know how skin varies all over our body? The skin on our feet is the thickest and benefits from heavier creams and lotions, where as our hands have thinner skin so as not to interfer with our sensation of touch. For this reason, we need lighter, faster absorbing oils and butters in a hand cream than we do in a foot cream. When it comes to the face, not only does this have some of the thinnest skin on our body, especially around the eyes, we also have to stop and think about they type of skin we have. Are you lucky enough to have a evenly balanced skin type or do you have very dry skin that needs some extra hydration. Perhaps you have oily skin and could benefit from a product that has ingredients to help regulate sebum production.

Most people know to match products to their skin type but it can sometimes get so confusing with so many different products on the market as well as our constantly changing needs. After reviewing my facial range, I realised I am really adding to this confusion so I decided to give the range a face lift!

You are going to start to see updated labels on the facial range which will clearly show what skin type they are best suited for. You will already see this on the Cucumber Face Cream for dry skin and the Apple & Hibiscus Face Cream for all skin types. These changes will really help those that come instore and prefer so shop in peace without having to ask me questions. I haven't forgotten about those of you who can't visit the shop!

I have been teaching myself coding so I could make it clearer on the website what skin type different products are best suited for without having to read the whole description. Now when you visit the website, you will see little badges in the top right corner of the cover photo that will immediately identify what skin type the product has been designed for. I hope this makes it easier for you.

Another soap has come off the cure rack in the form of Cactus Bloom!

This soap has a beautiful fresh aroma that will make you feel like your shower has become your own personal day spa! It features a crisp, refreshing fragrance blending bright bergamot and lemon with fresh Himalayan bamboo. A soft heart of jasmine, lavender, and green florals gives way to a clean, earthy base of musk and wood, leaving a fresh and uplifting finish.

Each soap has been decorated with a collection of cactus, but don't worry, all spikes have been removed 😆

I've been at it again 😆 The Menthol Foot Spray has had an updated label and is now called Cooling Foot Spray as I felt this name better describes what the spray is designed for.

There are so many rules and regulations in the bath and body world, including what we can and can't say on product labels. For the longest time, I thought using the word "cooling" was off-limites because it could be considered a claim. Turns out, it can be used when the ingredients genuinely provide that effect, provided we're not making therapeutic claims, such as cooling burns. Honestly, I swear this is the hardest of part of doing something I love🤯

So, what makes it cooling? Menthol Crystals provide that familiar cooling sensation when they come in contact with the skin. It's the same ingredient that gives that fresh feeling from a minty lolly or toothpaste! Only a small amount is needed in our Foot Spray to give hot, tired feet a refreshing cooling feeling.

Sometimes, a little label change comes with a whole lot of research behind it! But when the new names makes it clearer what the product is for, it's defintely worth it.

For those that are already a fan of this Foot Spray, don't worry! Nothing else had changed. It's the same Foot Spray you know and love, just with a new name 😊

There is always something new to learn and each time I do, I see ways I can improve upon my product range.

The Gentle Foaming Face Scrub is an excellent example. This scrub has been designed to be gentle on the skin making it idea for those with sensitive skin as well as dry skin. From my initial research, I decided to go with Green Tea Extract as it is full of anti-oxidants and other nutrients that are known to help soothe the skin. However, additional research shows this is more suited to those with oily skin so I decided to change the extract add in Calendual and Chamomile instead.

These are much more suited to dry and sensitive skin as not only are they known to soothe the skin, they both work in different ways to hydrate. The chamomile will help draw moisture in, while calendula will help improve the skin barrier locking that moisture in.

Other than changing the extracts, all other ingredients remain the same. The only other change is the label and name! A fresh new look that highlights the use of Papaya Extract and Yellow Clay.

This updated version is shipping now!

They're finally here! A new range of scents in the Room + Linen Sprays that are all perfect for the Spring and Summer Months.

With the main focus being on getting ready for Christmas, I kept neglecting to updated the Room+Linen Spray.

A mission I managed to accomplish by the end of the week 😁 Here is the line up for this season:

🌼Frangipani - A beautiful tropical flower that always blooms at this time of year with a sweet, exotic aroma.

🌸Japanese Honey Suckle - A sweet floral blend with fruity notes, jasmine and creamy vanilla.

These are all available now!

👻 Little Boo has almost gone! 👻

Add a little spooky fun to your shower this October with our Limited Edition Little Boo Soap. Each bar features a handcrafted, soapy ghost, making this one just as fun to look at as to use! Little Boo has been scented in the highly requested Japanese Honeysuckle; a fruity floral blend of grape and mandarin, soft jasmine and creamy vanilla.

They've been disappearing from the shelves much faster than I expected 😁 So if you have been thinking about it, now is the time to grab one (or more) before they go!
Head to the website or come in-store and grab yours before they go
