Trustpilot Review - 7 Sept 2022

Deodorant is easy to use and kept me fresh feeling all day. They smell heavenly too. Loving all the products and looking forward to trying others. 

"Still loving the fragrance/scent and can still smell it on me when I get home about 4.30. No horrid sweaty smells for me, even when I’ve been running which is fab! And no skin irritation either."

Saving money and saving the planet go Hand in Hand

Our natural deodorants are aluminium, additive, propellant and paraben free and offered in a recyclable aluminium tin. We compared our 50ml product to a 250ml spray can of deodorant, we used our customers’ feedback, volumes used and price data and we see a saving of over 50% of the daily cost.

The main reasons for the difference?

• Only a tiny bit of natural deodorant is needed to be effective
• Reapplication is required less frequently

Product Description

Our fabulous deodorants are aluminium free, plastic free, paraben free, alcohol free and palm oil free. These natural deodorants are packed in recyclable tins and fragranced with essential oils for a naturally fresh experience. The combination of rich shea butter, sweet almond oil and vitamin E protects and nourishes your sensitive underarm skin. 

We offer an optional wooden spatula with which to apply this product if preferred. Particularly suitable for those with lovely, long fingernails who prefer not to clog them with deodorant :) 

Our Geranium, Lavender and Tea Tree deodorant is available in two sizes, long-lasting 50ml or handy 30ml.

To use, simply scoop a very small amount of the creamy, natural deodorant product from the tin with clean hands or dab the back of the index finger in the balm. Apply onto your underarm skin. See our video on how to use here!

As with all of our products, we refrain from adding excess water. This means our natural deodorant is concentrated and a little goes a long way.

NOTE: Our hand/body creams and natural deodorants are coconut oil based rather than water/synthetic emulsifier based. They can become runny in very hot weather. Please keep them in a cool place, away from direct sunlight and do pop them in the fridge to reset if required. Some customers keep their natural deodorant in the fridge during very warm weather.

You can read more about how our natural deodorant is different and why it works so well in our blog HERE.

Good for your hair, good for your pocket and GREAT for the planet, our popular 55g natural shampoo bars are now available in lavender or lemongrass essential oil fragrances in addition to the fragrance free version. 

The 55g shampoo bars are 100% sulphate free, additive free, palm oil free, cruelty free, plastic free, they're suitable for vegans and 100% natural. All our packaging is plastic free; either fully recyclable cardboard or made from plant derived materials. Alternatively you may choose to receive your shampoo bars free from any packaging.

You can read about making the transition to our natural, detergent free shampoo bars here, where you'll find out what to expect when using a natural shampoo bar.

We manufacture our products in small, waste-free batches in the beautiful market town of Malton, Yorkshire in the UK.

These shampoo bars can help to reduce the 36 million plastic bottles used EVERY DAY in the UK because they completely eliminate the need for plastic packaging. Plastic makes up 80% of the waste found on beaches around the world and over 300,000 tonnes of debris that floats in our oceans.

Each shampoo bar lasts longer than your average bottle of shampoo as we do not add water to our products. You will find you need much less than high street detergent-based shampoos; a little goes a very long way.

Our natural shampoo bar now comes in three fragrance options:

- The original fragrance-free formulation is extra gentle for sensitive scalps

- The lemongrass essential oil fragranced variation smells fresh and energizing. Lemongrass essential oil is said to balance excess oil production - we've had some great feedback from our trial bars and you can read it here 

- The lavender essential oil fragranced version smells beautiful, relaxing and calming. Lavender essential oil is said to help with itchy, flaky scalp - we've had some great feedback from our trial bars and you can read it here 

You will find you don't need as much product as liquid, detergent-based  shampoos to clean your hair. Simply lather the solid shampoo bar in your hands and then apply to your hair as you would a liquid shampoo, before rinsing out very thoroughly and repeating.

Shop our individual Conditioner and Ethical Haircare Sets. 

Here's a video on our soap making process.

NOT SUITABLE FOR NUT ALLERGIES DUE TO USE OF ALMOND OIL.

Natural Unfragranced

Sodium Cocoate, Sodium Olivate, Sodium Sweet Almondate, Sodium Castorate, Glycerin

Lavender

Lavendula Angustifolia (lavender) essential oil (linalool, limonene)

"It’s as good as a bottle of good conditioner, but without the plastic and nasty oil."

"Smells beautiful, lasts a long time, makes my hair feel amazing"

Good for your hair, good for your pocket and GREAT for the planet. Our super-concentrated,  VEGAN 15g solid conditioner roundels will last for 15 to 20 applications.

Cosy Cottage conditioner is 100% sulphate free, additive free, palm oil free, cruelty free, plastic free, suitable for vegans and totally natural.  The combination of cocoa butter and sweet orange essential oil provides a gorgeous chocolatey orange scent to these little, solid conditioners.

We manufacture all our products in small, waste-free batches in the beautiful market town of Malton in Yorkshire, UK.  Our packaging is either fully recyclable paper, cardboard or plant derived, including our clear bags and bubble wrap, which will compost within a year.  These 15g solid conditioner roundels arrive in a compostable glassine paper bag.

We recommend you complement your conditioner bar with a bamboo comb which you can purchase separately here.

There is an option to include a travel tin with your purchase to keep your solid conditioner roundel safe and dry when on the move. Simply select the option when adding to the basket. 

These solid conditioner roundels can help to reduce the 36 million plastic bottles used EVERY DAY in the UK because they completely eliminate the need for plastic packaging. Plastic makes up 80% of the waste found on beaches around the world and over 300,000 tonnes of debris that floats in our oceans.

As we do not add water to any of our products, the roundel will last longer than a typical bottle of high street conditioner (15 to 20 uses per 15g roundel) . You'll find that you don't need to use much product to soften and nourish your hair -  a very little goes a very long way.

This 15g solid conditioner roundel is best applied to damp hair, concentrating on the ends where dryness is most likely. Simply wet the roundel in warm water, rub onto your hands and then apply to the ends and tips of your hair, smoothing with your fingers or combing through with our bamboo wide-toothed comb. Rinse out thoroughly.

For best results, use as a natural haircare step after using our solid Shampoo Bar. You may also wish to buy the Shampoo and Conditioner bars along with a Bamboo Comb and Drawstring Cosy Cottage Bag as our Ethical Haircare Set here.
