SkincareBOOtique

Handmade Soaps & Skincare family run business with strong environmental principles. The story of our award winning handmade soaps & skincare family business begins in lockdown! Living on a Mid Wales farm, we are a family with 3 children, 2 girls and a boy, who all play a part in the business.

We have experimented with homemade soap, fragrances, and colours at home for a number of years which we have used ourselves and the children have given as presents at Christmas and birthdays. We decided to expand on this idea and take it forward starting our own family skincare business where we can to support our positive environmental ethos by avoiding the use of palm oil, preservatives, synthetics, detergents and plastics. We package them in recycled/ recyclable / compostable packaging or tins to minimise any negative impact on the environment and utilise the increasing circular economy.

Martyn and myself make the handcrafted soaps. We also ensure that we meet all the legislation requirements of selling cosmetics (which is what a soap is). All our soap formulations for sale are certificated and registered on the cosmetics website.

The two girls are the social media gurus and also help to cut the handmade soaps. They are good with young people, ideas, and themes. During busy times they are experts at packaging and ensuring your soap is dispatched on time.

To complete the positive outcome from lockdown and full family involvement in our skincare business, our youngest takes all the waste paper, cardboard that we and friends create and shreds it. We use this as the packaging that you will find in your box containing the soap. The circular economy, a positive arising from lockdown.
