Seasonal Pumpkin Latte Soap

Our seasonal Pumpkin Latte Soap is now available while stocks last. Made with real pumpkin purée and scented with a warming blend of Clove, Sweet Orange, and Cinnamon Essential Oils, this autumn favourite captures the comforting feeling of the season in every bar. As with all our handmade soaps, it is made in small batches, so once it’s gone, it won’t return until next autumn. 

Organic Cocoa & Citrus Soufflé Butter 

Returns Back by popular demand, our Seasonal Organic Cocoa & Citrus Soufflé Butter has returned to the shelves. Made with nourishing ingredients and scented with Sweet Orange, Frankincense, and Mandarin Essential Oils, it carries a naturally delicious chocolate aroma from pure cocoa. Rich, luxurious, and perfect for the colder months ahead.

Autumn Candle Collection 

Our seasonal candle collection is now available in our Wantage shop, including: 

* Spiced Pumpkin * Fireside Treats * Autumn Spice

Breathe in the scents of autumn with every burn. These fragrances are only available for a short season before we move on to our winter collection. 

A New Face Oil Collection 

Many of you have been asking for a simple, essential oil-free facial oil blend. For quite a while, my answer was always “not yet.” After so many requests, I finally decided to create one. Our new Oils of Life Face Oil Blend will be arriving around the middle of October. Created especially for those who love pure plant oils without added essential oils, this blend will be made from carefully selected oils chosen to support and nourish the skin naturally. 

Korean-Inspired Rice Water Face Creams

Our Korean-inspired face cream collection is also progressing behind the scenes. These creams are made using pure rice water and are currently expected to launch in the middle of October. A few special ingredients are still making their way to us, which has made the development process a little slower than expected, but we believe good skincare is worth waiting for. The collection will include: 

* Barrier Repair sensitive skin

 * Balance & Clarify oily skin

* Anti-Pollution dull tired skin,also oily skin

* Revive & Restore ageing skin,mature skin

We cannot wait to share them with you. 

Essential Oil Diffusers 

Our electric ceramic or glass water diffusers are already available in our Wantage shop and are a wonderful way to enjoy your favourite essential oils at home.

Why not add our Defence Essential Oil Blend to your diffuser? A fresh blend of essential oils, perfect for this time of year when sneezes and coughs seem to be making the rounds. Our Christmas Essential Oil Blend is already on the shelves too. I do love the seasonal scents of Autumn and Winter.

Shower Steamers Our new shower steamer collection has made a successful introduction and has quickly become a customer favourite. 

Available in the following blends: 

* Orange, Eucalyptus & Peppermint 

* Peppermint, Frankincense & Lemon 

* Juniper Berry, Lavender, Tea Tree & Tangerine 

* Clary Sage, Lemon & Lavender

 * Rose Geranium, Black Pepper, Bergamot & Grapefruit

Perfect for transforming an everyday shower into an aromatherapy experience. 

Looking Ahead to Christmas 2026

Christmas preparations are already underway. From 1st November, you can expect to see: 

* Christmas Candles

 * Christmas Soap 

* Seasonal Gift Sets

 * Festive Limited Edition products

If you are planning to order hampers or larger quantities of gift sets, please speak to us as early as possible. We need time to organise packaging, labels, and stock levels to ensure everything is prepared for you. 

A Wish for October 

As autumn settles in, I hope October brings you moments of calm, comfort, and warmth. May you find time to slow down, enjoy the changing colours around you, and take care of yourself as the seasons change.

Thank you for supporting our small Oxfordshire business and allowing us to continue creating natural skincare in small batches. 

With love,
