Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our premium handcrafted skincare products

We use premium ingredients including shea butter,Tallow, jojoba oil, rosehip extract, vitamin E, and essential oils. All ingredients are ethically sourced from sustainable suppliers. Each product is carefully formulated to deliver maximum efficacy while respecting your skin's natural balance.

All of our products are cruelty-free — we never test on animals, and we only work with suppliers who share that commitment. However, not all of our products are vegan. Some formulations contain animal-derived ingredients such as tallow and goat milk, which are ethically sourced and chosen for their exceptional skin-nourishing properties. Each product page clearly indicates whether a product is vegan-friendly, so you can make the right choice for your values.

We partner with ethical suppliers and farms across the UK and Europe, prioritising natural ingredients, responsible sourcing, and full traceability. While not all of our products are certified organic, every formulation is crafted with care — using high-quality ingredients selected for their purity, sustainability, and effectiveness. We maintain long-term supplier relationships and conduct regular audits to uphold consistent quality and ethical standards throughout our supply chain.

For best results, follow this routine: cleanse with our gentle cleanser, apply toner, use our serum, apply moisturiser, and finish with SPF during the day. At night, you can use a richer night cream. Start with once-daily application and gradually increase to twice daily as your skin adjusts. Each product page includes detailed application instructions tailored to that specific product.

Absolutely! Our products are designed to work synergistically. We recommend starting with a basic routine (cleanser, moisturiser, SPF) and gradually adding serums and treatments. Allow 2-3 weeks between introducing new products to monitor how your skin responds. If you have sensitive skin, introduce products one at a time with at least a week between additions.

Most customers notice improvements in skin texture and hydration within 2-4 weeks of consistent use. More significant changes like reduced fine lines or improved clarity typically appear after 6-8 weeks. Skincare is a journey—consistency is key. Results vary based on individual skin type, age, and environmental factors.

We offer a 14 day money-back guarantee on unopened products in original condition. Due to hygiene regulations, opened skincare products cannot be returned unless defective. If you're unsatisfied with a product, contact our customer service team and we'll arrange a full refund or replacement.

UK orders typically arrive within 2-3 business days. EU orders usually take 5-7 business days, while international orders may take 7-14 business days depending on your location.

Store all products in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. The ideal temperature is between 15-25°C. Keep bottles tightly sealed when not in use to prevent oxidation. Avoid storing products in bathrooms with high humidity, as moisture can compromise product integrity. Properly stored products maintain their efficacy for the full shelf life.

All our products have a shelf life of 24 months from the date of manufacture. Once opened, we recommend using products within 12 months. Some natural products may have slightly shorter shelf lives — check individual product pages for specific information.

Yes! Our products are travel-friendly. Liquids and gels must comply with TSA regulations (100ml or less for carry-on). We offer travel-size versions of our most popular products, perfect for testing or taking on trips. Solid products like balms and butters have no liquid restrictions and are ideal for travel.

Yes, our entire range is formulated to be gentle on sensitive skin. We avoid common irritants like synthetic fragrances, essential oils in high concentrations, and harsh chemicals. If you have very reactive skin, we recommend doing a patch test first. Our Sensitive Skin Collection is specifically designed for easily irritated skin types.

Absolutely! We have products specifically formulated for oily and combination skin types. Our lightweight serums and oil-free moisturizers won't clog pores or leave a greasy residue. Look for our 'Balancing' collection, which uses mattifying ingredients like niacinamide and clay to control excess oil while maintaining hydration.

Our pricing reflects the quality of our ingredients and our commitment to ethical practices. We use concentrated, active ingredients that deliver visible results—not fillers or water. Our small-batch production ensures freshness, and we invest in sustainable sourcing and fair-trade practices. You're investing in your skin's health and supporting ethical, sustainable beauty.
