Plastic Free Packaging

Being free from plastic and as eco-friendly as possible is at the heart of everything we do, and is the reason we created our company in the first place. Our products are all plastic-free, often offering an alternative to the commonly found plastic options, but we also make every effort to ensure that all our packaging and postal supplies are as earth friendly as they can be. 


​CANDLES
Our candles come in either repurposed honey jars or pudding pots. They are either  donated by locals, sourced second hand or taken from our own household. (But there's only so many of those puddings one family can eat!). They are then sterilised and cleaned thoroughly before we turn them into containers for our candles. 
​They also come with paper stickers, twine and brown paper gift tags, all fully recyclable.
£4.25 - £12.25

Only a few left!

MELTS
Our larger 20g melts come in recyclable wrapping, and when bought in a bag of 4 are presented in a burlap bag, which is also fully biodegradable. Again with a cardboard gift tag. Our 100g bags come in glassine bags, which are fully compostable, recyclable and biodegradable. We even supply our heart shaped melts completely package free to local refill shops, where they are displayed in a pick 'n' mix style display!


SOAPS
Our larger soaps are wrapped in recycled brown paper, with Kraft labels to hold them all together. The Queen Bee soap bars and guest soaps come with just a paper strip, and the rose shaped soaps are wrapped in a sustainably sourced and chlorine free coffee filter.

HAIR CARE
From shampoo bars wrapped in tissue paper, to conditioner bars packaged in glassine bags we carry our plastic-free theme throughout our products. We use aluminium tins for our dry shampoo, which are also recyclable. 

POSTAGE
Even our postal supplies are eco-friendly! Our cardboard boxes are 100% recycled and recyclable, and we use paper tape to seal them shut. The products inside are protected with shredded paper and tissue paper - no bubble wrap in sight! We even use a stamp to mark our boxes meaning there is less waste, and our business cards are also made from brown card which can go into your cardboard collection - although we hope you'll keep them so you know where to order from next time!

INGREDIENTS
And finally, we have an arrangement with our main ingredient supplier, where we can take back out empty plastic containers and have them refilled. Where this is not possible, we recycle all our waste, or even use some of the empty containers in our refill delivery service!
