All of our scents are plant-derived, made with 100% pure essential oils. The scents have been designed like a perfume, starting with a beautiful Australian native botanical and layered with other oils to include top, middle and base notes. You can find descriptions of all our scents here.

NATURAL SURFACTANTS
Surfactants help water mix with oil and are the cleansing component of our formulations.They create a foaming effect, making it easier to clean surfaces and wash away impurities. We use naturally-derived surfactants in our products, such as lauryl glucoside, decyl glucoside,sodium cocoyl glutamate,capryl/caprylyl glucoside and coco glucoside.
NATURAL MOISTURISERS & THICKENERS
