Cosmetic bases are base toiletries which you can tailor to produce your own personalised products
The bases can be used alone for sensitive skin, but the special formulation ensures you can add essential oils, carrier oils and other cosmetic ingredients to produce products for your own particular skin type, indulgence or commonly for resale as your own brand or use in treatments.

Customers purchasing cosmetic bases range from home enthusiasts making their families skincare naturally, therapists making products for their clients or Spas using our bases to create treatments and aftersales products.

Ethically we encourage the use of essential oils, vegetable based oils and other natural ingredients for blending in our cosmetic bases, however you are not limited to using just these, you can also use synthetic fragrances, colourings and ingredients.

You do not need experience to use cosmetic bases
Naturallythinking cosmetic bases are simple to use and easy to blend. The use of a basic aromatherapy book and online advice works for most of our customers.

We will however be offering blending courses from April 2013
Our courses will be run from our Spa Design Centre in Croydon along with a range of other courses suitable for the enthusiast to the professional.

Our manufacturing facility operates high grade, purpose built vessels equipped with stainless steel agitators and mixers.
The water purification system is of particularly high specification and has been tailor made by a specialist water treatment company. It delivers such complete purification that the conductivity meter consistently records a zero reading. As well as producing for ourselves (Naturallythinking), we produce for many other manufacturers, Spa's and cottage industries throughout the UK.

We freshly produce our products daily by hand.
We have our own in house toxicologist to ensure product excellence and run our own microbiological testing to sure efficacy.

Our output has been approved as hypoallergenic by an independent toxicologist.
The toxicologist noted that it ‘has been manufactured using raw materials specially selected as having either low allergenic potential or present at concentrations where such potential is minimized. It meets with the criteria for being described as hypoallergenic'.

We carefully select each ingredient and formulate every product to deliver a consistently high quality output., be it with additional agents of essential oils, fragrances, tinctures or vegetable oils.

Because we make all of our products by hand and in one place, distributing direct to customers, removing warehouses, supermarkets and associated transport from the chain - the carbon footprint of our products is significantly lower than the products you will find in the supermarket. It is part of our ethical & environmental policy to source all of our products within our immediate vicinity.
