“I’ve always been interested in natural oils and the efficacy of herbs. I’m frustrated that so much of the natural skincare on offer is packaged in single use plastic containers and applicators. I’m not alone. For me, the way forward is to develop new ways of packaging the brand without compromising the environment. I’d already been making balms for family and friends that needed help with eczema and sensitive skin. So, I wanted to address specific needs as well as to develop an effective deodorant. Scence also avoids questionable ingredients, like aluminium’.
