Some of you may already have had a sneaky peak at our new labels, as we have been slowly introducing them as our old labels ran out. For those who haven't yet seen them, all will be revealed when we launch our new website next week!

So, it's farewell to our old designs and our old website, and hello to our fresh new look, which we hope you'll all approve of.

All will be revealed next week.

Remember, our site will be out of action for a little while during the switchover, so if you need something soon, get your orders in this weekend! https://tinyurl.com/vvasuvpr

We're delighted to announce that we'll soon be launching new look product labels across our range and a brand new website. We're just in the final stages of development but we are hoping that the new website will be live by the middle of next week.

In order to make the switch we'll be putting our site into maintenance mode while we check everything is ready to go. This will unfortunately mean that we're offline for a while, but we'll obviously try to make the transition as quickly as we can.

If you know you need to place an order soon, we'd encourage you to do so by Monday 7th September so we can get your products dispatched prior to the changeover.

Should you need to contact us while the site is down, please feel free to call us on 01664 501110 or email us at [email protected].

If you have an account with us, all of your details should be ported across from the current site along with your order history, so you should be able to login as normal once the new site is live.

Thank you for your patience and please accept our apologies for any inconvenience that the downtime may cause.

Our essential oil of the month is Bitter Orange, which is pressed from the peel of the sour orange which is used to produce marmalade. It has a slightly less sweet scent than Orange Sweet, but possesses similar therapeutic properties.

It's an excellent oil for uplifting the spirits and soothing stress, anxiety and end of summer blues as we transition into the shorter days of Autumn. It can also help to boost confidence, calm a quesy tummy and support better sleep, making it a great choice for anyone who is perhaps nervous about starting a new chapter this September.

It can help support the immune system as we head into cold and flu season, and it is also useful in skincare.

Our massage waxes are blended to melt effortlessly into the skin, giving the same slippage as a massage oil but with enhanced grip and control.

Our Relaxing blend contains soothing, calming, balancing, mood-lifting French Lavender, Palmarosa, Petitgrain, Frankincense, Sandalwood and Neroli.

And, our herbal-scented Muscles blend contains Clary Sage, Sweet Marjoram, French Lavender and Rosemary to soothe the muscles and joints.

With our pure and natural essential oil dilutions we've selected the most precious and costly essential oils and professionally pre-diluted them at 5% in Jojoba. This makes these highly concentrated, and intensely fragrant oils not only more affordable, but also easier to blend with. Quite often it is hard to measure just the tiniest amount of precious pure oil that your blend needs, so our dilutions can help you manage the balance of your blend and reduce waste.

So, if you want to offer your clients the very best oils, while keeping an eye on costs, give our dilutions a try. Head to our website to view the entire range. https://tinyurl.com/4mx4zw9v

Simple but effective!

Simple but effective!

A recent 2026 case study followed a 67-year-old man with hypertension who was struggling to sleep and waking about every two hours.

Researchers placed 5–8 drops of German chamomile essential oil in 70–100 mL of water in a humidifier, positioned about 50–100 cm from him, and ran it for 10–15 minutes before bedtime for three consecutive days. The result?

His sleep-quality score improved from 12 to 5. He went from waking every two hous to once during the night to sleeping through the night by day three. He also appeared more relaxed and refreshed.

That's a remarkable change from a remarkably simple intervention.
Now, this was one person over only three days, so it doesn't prove chamomile will produce the same results for everyone. The authors appropriately call for larger, controlled studies.

But it is another fascinating reminder that sometimes supporting the body's natural systems doesn't have to be complicated. https://scholar.google.com/scholar?start=0&q=aromatherapy&hl=en&scisbd=1&as_sdt=0,22 =gs_qabs&t=1787183990729&u=%23p%3DiGwz5D96wG8J

Journaling at the end of a working week, while diffusing beautifully scented essential oils, is a great way to clear your mind, leave stresses behind, and make space for the weekend.

Our Friday Night Diffuser blend contains soothing, grounding Cedarwood, calming and relaxing Lavender and uplifting Bergamot to help you unwind, reflect and reset!

So, pop your oils in the diffuser, maybe enjoy a cheeky glass of vino (other drinks are available), put pen to paper, and decompress...

Have a fab weekend! 🥰
