Are you really all vegan? What about the sugar?
Absolutely! We take pride in our commitment to veganism and cruelty-free practices. Even our sugars are carefully chosen to ensure they’re 100% vegan and have never been filtered with bone char. We meticulously select every ingredient to stay true to our values and ensure the highest standards in our products.
Are you really 100% all natural?
Yes, we are! We don't use any synthetic chemicals in our products nor do we use any preservatives. We use ingredients that are easily recognisable: rice, coffee, cocoa butters, coconut oil, sweet almond oil. We ensure our products are paraben-free and free from any nasties.
The less common ingredients we use which you may not have come across before are:
- Candelilla Wax: Found in our lip balms and tints, this plant-based wax from the Candelilla shrub (native to Northwest Mexico and Southwest U.S.) is a safe vegan alternative with a Low Hazard rating of 0 on EWG. [Read more here]

How do I use your body scrubs?

In the shower, place a spoonful of body scrub in your palms and add a splash of water. Mix in your hands until it is creamy in texture and luxurious to scrub. Scrub and leave on for 2 to 5 minutes for best results. Shower as per normal and towel dry.
Our body scrubs leave you beautifully moisturised after, so you don't need to apply any lotions or cream!
