Late to the Party

After only recently coming across Earth Basics on Social Media I decided to go and have a little browse at their online store to see what they have to offer. See, here's the thing - I don't actually need anything at the moment, but when has that ever been a reason not to buy?! Earth Basics offer a lovely range of eco-friendly, recyclable,sustainably sourced, biodegradable and zero-plastic products from brands such as Ku.tis, Beauty Kubes, and Heavenly Organics as well as eco toothbrushes, plasters, cotton buds and cleansing cloths. Heavenly Organics - Organic Orange, Rose Geranium & Patchouli Body Butter £4.99 for 100g I wanted to try something from Heavenly Organics and this body butter caught my eye.

Nature's Notes London Looks Delhicious Soap  £7.50 Buy Here  * This product was kindly gifted by Amina at Nature's Notes without expectation of review. If you remember my  Nature's Notes London brand spotlight post  from last year, you'll remember that I fell in love with this brand, their ethos, the labelling and packaging, the stories and songs behind each soap and  definitely  the soaps themselves!

By far the funkiest and cleverest labelling I've come across- the soap bars have cassette style labels.  These are so much fun! Looks Delhicious was inspired by the song 'Thoda Resham Lagta Hai' by Lata Mangeshkar. Amina wanted the scent of Looks Delhicious to remind us of Chai. Cinammon leaf and sweet orange bring us the spice and cocoa powder gives that sweet, vanilla depth. Cocoa Powder also acts as a gentle e...
