Naturally luxurious
“Using Annie’s Natural Soaps feels like a treat to my skin and knowing the ingredients are completely natural I will definitely be gifting to friends and family. The donation supporting the orangutang is an added bonus.”
Jackie, Wiltshire
Refreshing
“I was lucky enough to be given the Refresh [mint and rosemary] soap and was pleasantly surprised at the experience. Refreshing and moisturising in the shower.”
Paul, Brighton
PALM OIL FREE
I didn’t just want to make a profit for profit’s sake, and knowing that palm oil has lots of controversies attached to it, I formulate all my soaps without palm oil – there are plenty of soapmakers that respect this.
But to me, that did not go far enough. My soaps must make a difference. Each year end, I will donate 10% of the profits to a UK based Orangutan Charity responsible for housing, nursing and rescuing these endangered animals – due to palm oil use.
OUR VALUES
- Our Customers satisfaction is paramount to building trust and growth for our business.
- We source our ingredients from established reliable suppliers within the UK for a minimum impact on the environment.
- We believe you can experience luxury, whilst at the same time contribute to a great cause (donating to OrangAppeal).
Annie's Story
I grew up in France with a half Spanish dad. My mum instilled a passion in me using soaps for just about anything. Cleaning ourselves, washing clothes (I still wonder how she did all that!). I got to appreciate real soaps and their benefits. Scents and perfumes were equally important.
I longed to learn how to make soap. Once my husband gifted me a course on soap making, I was hooked, we have never been so clean since! I decided there and then that I wanted to create a unique concept.
The concept was born out of a love of all natural ingredients, caring for our planet and ecological impact. All our soaps are entirely natural, and most oils used are organic. The soaps are exclusively scented using essential oils (no to artificial fragrances). They are handcrafted in small batches using the cold process method in our rural cottage nestled in the beautiful North Norfolk area.
My commitment to take the concept one step further, meant that the impact on the environment from the packaging had to be minimal. This is where the seed paper packaging comes in. You get to grow flowers from the sleeves, pretty cool.
Lastly, I didn’t just want to make a profit for profit’s sake, and knowing that palm oil has lots of controversies attached to it, I formulate all my soaps without palm oil – there are plenty of soapmakers that respect this.
But to me, that did not go far enough. My soaps must make a difference. Each year end, I will donate 10% of the profits to a UK based Orangutan Charity responsible for housing, nursing and rescuing these endangered animals – due to palm oil use.
