Celebrating the return of more EO’s!
After the fire, when the time came to restocking our products, it was always going to be a tough decision as to which products were more valuable and important to reorder first. Essential Oils were always going to be high up the list!

This ingredient is probably my favourite ‘all rounder surfactant’ that I use to make a sulfate free product that offers loads of lather. It’s a must in your store cupboard if you craft lathery things!
