Why do my products differ slightly?

All our products are handmade in small batches in our Richmond studio in Southern Tasmania.

We use certified organic, natural, pure and minimally processed ingredients, as much as possible.

Please be aware that because of this there may be slight changes to the texture, smell and colour of the products from time to time, this occurs usually because of seasonal variation and changes in which season the plant was harvested.

We prepare our own infused oils, you may at times find small pieces of herbs in your products. We do double filter our oils, but sometimes the tiny pieces sneak through! Please be aware..
