Who we are
Down to Earth is a Lancashire grown small business.
Starting out as a hobby, experimenting making creams and balms as remedies and trialing on family and friends, the launch of Down to Earth was the natural next step.
As a trained Chemist, aromatherapist and keen gardener I was naturally interested in the raw materials and processes involved in making my own products.
All our products are fully cosmetic safety tested and either made from organic raw materials or ingredients as natural as we can source. Our hand creams are vegan and all our products are free from animal testing. We currently use glass, aluminium and cardboard packaging to ensure the containers can be as recyclable as possible. If you’re able to return your glass jars from the hand creams we can clean & reuse the
jar too!

Ethics
​We strive to formulate products which are as environmentally friendly and as natural as possible and our suppliers are like minded. Where possible our suppliers are from fairly traded sources or from community and cooperative projects.
We are now approved as cruelty free under the Leaping Bunny Programme.
​
Down to Earth believes that beauty products should be cruelty free. We are proud to be Leaping Bunny approved. A global programme, Leaping Bunny requires cruelty free standards over and above legal requirements.
All of our own brand cosmetic and personal care products are approved under the Cruelty Free International Leaping Bunny programme, the internationally recognisable gold standard for cruelty free products. We adhere to a fixed cut-off date policy and proactively monitor our suppliers to ensure that our products continue to adhere to the Leaping Bunny criteria. Our supplier monitoring system is also independently audited.

Raw materials
All our raw materials are ethically sourced and organic wherever possible. Otherwise the most natural products are used and none are tested on animals. The only animal by product we use is organic beeswax and no bees are harmed in the harvesting. Our hand creams are vegan.
Pure essential oils are used not synthetically produced perfumes or oils.
Small Batches
All our products are handmade in small batches ensuring excellent quality control. Good manufacturing procedures and practices are key to consistency.
Testing

Each of our products has been Cosmetic Safety Assessed by a microbiologist as is legally required. Our hand creams are also Challenge Tested to ensure their safety from microbes. All are products have also been registered with the Cosmetic Product Notification Portal (CPNP).

Packaging
We use recyclable/reuseable or compostable packaging where we can and continually look for new ways to help us improve in this area. Our gift wrapping is all natural and compostable and kept to a minimum.
