What makes Botanical Bath and Body special:

My business is special to me for many reasons;

In the last 6 years, I have been diagnosed as coeliac therefore we have had to make dramatic change our lifestyle as in food preparation and consumption as well as other dining out options.

Because of this, I decided that if what goes into my body has to be natural then what goes on my body needs to be natural too.

After a lot of trial and error (lots and lots of error) I developed some basic soap recipes but wasn’t satisfied with just that – I  needed to make bath and body products too.

Botanical Bath and Body are focused on making hair, bath and body care products that are kinder to the planet, you and animals.  

 

Your role/part:

Cosmetic Chemist/Owner

 

How have your studies helped progress:

In 2020 I enrolled in a Diploma of Personal Care Formulation and used these studies to learn the 'ins and outs' of product formulating, regulatory compliance and what ingredients to use to produce organic and/or natural and naturally derived products. I would not have been able to or have the confidence to start my business without completing this course.

Belinda has an amazing gift of being a fantastic online trainer and Rose is fantastic support  when you need someone to talk to with those ‘silly questions.”

I have now graduated as a Cosmetic Chemist and I am passionate about living a life with eco-friendly, natural home and body products.
