What our clients say about us
Very Happy with my Order of the Hair & Body Wash and the Moisturising Cream Insect Repellent. I have very sensitive skin and have to be very careful with what produces I use. After doing the recommended patch test for the Insect Repellent; I was delighted to see that my skin had not reacted at all. The refreshing smell of the Hair & Body Wash makes you want to go and jump in a shower to try it out! The added bonus is that the unique powdered formula is concentrated, so a little goes a long way! These will be perfect Stocking Fillers for Christmas x
We have the Travel Pack Outdoor Essentials, and absolutely love that they are super lightweight. All three fit perfectly into the waistband pocket on our backpack! Lightweight products are so helpful for us because we already have quite a bit of weight to carry in the form of our almost 2 year old 😂
I am very excited to have received my first order... I love the packaging of my Moisturising cream Insect Repellent and can't wait to use it on my holiday to Africa!
