Philosophy
Rich in precious essential oils and active botanical extracts, our products are carefully formulated to enhance a natural radiance from the inside out
PURE, NATURAL AND EFFECTIVE
We love the inexhaustible variety of plants and flowers and the healing properties of their natural oils and extracts. There’s an art and a science to working with them. Taking the purest natural ingredients, we create blends that enhance the oil’s inherent properties, turning them into rich, beautifully scented products that deliver fantastic results.
Every ingredient in every product has a positive role to play. We use bases such as regenerative Damask rose water instead of plain water. We also use vitamin and omega-rich plant oils such as jojoba, evening primrose and arctic strawberry seed oil, and shea and murumuru butters. These have a natural affinity with essential oils, helping them to work to their best potential.
SUSTAINABLE SOURCING
The integrity of our ingredients is vital to us, and we actively source every essential oil and plant extract that goes into our products. Our raw materials are native to some of the most wild and remote places in the world. We work with the farmers who produce them to ensure our ingredients are grown to the highest degrees of purity, quality and ethical standards.
We support fair trade, organic and traditional agriculture and believe plants grown without chemicals have more benefits and fewer side effects for the skin and body. We continue to nurture our passion for essential oils, looking for new sources and new ingredients to use in our products. As with everything we do, we always use our experience to make sure the ingredients we select will bring real benefits to people’s wellbeing.
KIND TO NATURE
Nature is the foundation of Aromatherapy Associates. We respect its integrity and, throughout all aspects of our work, we do whatever we can to protect and sustain the health of the planet. Taking care over our ingredients and packaging means we can reassure you that every one of our products is kind to skin and to the environment.
