We offer complete transparency of the products we supply and therefore I have decided that an ingredient list should be part of that. We are what we say, no more, no less. My hope is that this list will help you make informed and confident decisions on your purchases within our store.
What I have learned is that not everything is as it seems. We are often misinformed by media hype and this has dictated what can be used and what can’t be used especially in the area of preservatives. Preservatives are a necessary part of any product that contains water. Without using a preservative the product will have very limited shelf life and cannot be guaranteed to be free of harmful bacteria, yeast and mould, even after one week or less depending on the storage. The importance here is the quantity that is used in the formula.
Please find below a list of all the ingredients that are used in our products.
