Get to know me

I started my small business because I found the cost of buying myself treats becoming too much and often the products I used left my skin feeling dry and a bit sore. I decided then to try making my own bath bombs and became addicted!

The regulations on selling cosmetics are quite strict, all the recipes have to be assessed and the maker must adhere to the UK Cosmetic Regulations. I make bath bombs, soap, body butter, lip balm, shower steamers, bath melts and bath salts mainly using essential oils but some are made using cosmetic fragrance oils.
