Product information
Colouring
At Blossom & Nectar we only use natural organic unrefined products, these will determine the end colour result of our products. Although we do like to add a sparkle and that is with a gold Ecosparks mica based glitter. Derived from natural mica and designed for use in toiletries. It is 100% plastic free and meets the requirements of UK legislation for inclusion of rinse off products.
Soap
Our soap is made in house and in small batches using the cold process. All our products are natural organic and our honey is raw welsh honey. Some products contain sustainable organic palm oil supplied by members of RSPO from Columbia and not from the rain forests that effect orangoutangs or deforestation.
Bath bombs
Our bathbombs are made in house in small batches. We use only 100% essential oils and dried local petals. Full details are in our certificates appendix
Candle Wax
All our candles are 100% British beeswax, this ensures all the health benefits are still retained within the wax and not processed out or from low quality hives. We can trace each candle back to its apiary. We only use ethical bee farmers and apiaries.
