We hope to answer any questions you may have here, but if not please get in touch via the contact form.
Are your products vegan?
YES! Well, except for the ones listed in the 'Dog' section. This is the question we are asked the most and it always surprises us. All of our bath bombs, our shower steamers, human balms, butters and salts are made without animal produce.
Animal testing is thankfully banned and we do not purchase from suppliers that test on animals. (Some larger companies get around this by sourcing products from countries that allow testing on animals).
We work closely with another small local business who make beeswax candles. You will find these items included in gift boxes, bags or collections we regularly put together.
How are they packaged? Do you use plastic?
No plastic here!* The bath bombs are packaged either in a compostable cellophane wrap or tissue paper. The slabs, cubes and shapes in compostable cello.
The bath salts, butters and moisturiser are housed in amber glass jars with an aluminium lid. The beard oils and aftershave balms are in amber glass bottles with aluminium lids (the beard oils will have a plastic dropper if requested). The solid balms and waxes in aluminium pots and the shower steamers in compostable clear bags.
We use amber glass as this blocks out the harmful UV rays that can affect the quality of the essential oils used. We then add paper tape and paper stickers.
The outer packaging will be a cardboard box, usually a recycled one, with paper tape and the products safely packed with compostable peanuts, tissue, paper, card or anything else we can get our hands on.
No invoices or paperwork are sent with the order. There may be printed information relating to us and/or the products for you to use and display.
*The only exceptions to this are the bulk cream/butter items which are packaged in a plastic tub but we welcome ideas to not use plastic.
Why are they labelled differently to the picture shown?
Because we label all of our products ourselves you may find that it looks differently to the picture in the product listing. This is because we like to use what we have and what we have is a variety of paper tapes, kraft sticker sheets and other paper items.
We may also try and make it easier for your customer to differentiate between similar looking products by using a different style of tape or sticker. For example; if you purchase all 3 of our body butters then we will use 3 different tapes so each variety looks different.
Some of our products also have a larger ingredients list, for example the products with extracts in them. This means that it may look better for a wraparound label to be used rather than an individual ingredients sticker.
Do you offer bulk options for our customers to fill their own containers?
Yes! Please contact us to discuss the options.
Can you customise a product?
Unfortunately it's not that easy to customise an item as all of our products have to be assessed for safety and any changes would mean a reassessment. The only exclusions to this are the Shower Steamers as they are not being used on the body, or the Bowwow Balm.
Can women use these or are they just for men?
Another question we're ask often. Yes, women can use our items, it's just that our target audience are men for reasons explained in the 'About Us' section.
What about children?
We've not made our products with children in mind but saying that, if your child is not allergic to any of the ingredients then there shouldn't be a problem. Our 4 year old has always used our products without any problems.
Why don't your products smell very strong?
Some of the feedback we receive, and the comparisons that are made on our products, concern the scent. We tend to use essential oils over fragrance oils unless an essential oil in the scent we want doesn't exist.
Essential Oils tend to have a more muted scent, we are also limited to the quantity of essential oil that is safe to use. For example: 3 drops of Nutmeg Essential Oil is not allowed per bath bomb but 2 drops is safe. That's how precise it is!
Fragrance oils are stronger smelling and we are able to safely use a larger quantity in a product.
Can I use your products if I have sensitive skin?
We only use the best ingredients we can source. Most of our products contain natural ingredients or will contain a safe synthetic ingredient.
We do not use the harsh SLS which is found is some larger branded bath bombs, we also avoid using too much fragrance oil and we do not use parabens or harsh chemicals.
All of our products are tested on friends and family of all ages and skin types before being safety assessed.
Can I try before I buy?
Yes but we do now make a charge for sample products. This takes into account not just the cost of the ingredients but the time it takes to make a smaller individual item and also the cost of the packaging.
If you would like to try before you buy, please contact us with your request and we will then deduct 50% of the cost (excluding p+p) from your next wholesale order.
Another option would be to see if we are stocked nearby to you (details in the Fairs, Events and Stockists section). Some stockists have samples and testers available to try.
