I seem to have extend my cruelty free pledge outwards from make-up recently. Bodycare seems to be an area not really talked about too much in terms of cruelty free companies (and when it does Lush tends to dominate this arena!) but I thought I’d share two I’ve discovered recently.
Started by former PR agent, Emma Heathcote-James, The Little Soap Company was established 5 years ago out of Emma’s need for a little stress relief and love of green beauty. Since then the soaps, still manufactured here in the UK, are now stocked on the shelves of both Tesco and Waitrose, and provide a nice little cruelty free and environmentally friendly alternative to the usual soap brands.
I found the Organic English Lavender and Citrus bar in my local Tescos and gosh is it lush! As well as the soothing hit of lavender (which is perfect for washing away your troubles at the end of the day) you also get the refreshing citrus scent to perk you up a bit too – perfect for trying to cool down on hot Summer evenings! I have fallen a little in love with the lavender/citrus combo, but I wouldn’t say no to trying out the rest of their organic range too – they have peppermint and rosemary scents too.
