In a world where mass production often overshadows authenticity and sustainability, there’s something truly special about discovering small and independent brands that pour their heart and soul into every product they create.
Here at Wow Beauty, this is something we’re passionate about: discovering and celebrating those small brands, where every order is celebrated, born out of a personal need of the founder… where passion and love is poured into every bottle.
It’s time to shine the spotlight on some of our favourite small aromatherapy brands that we think you’ll love too! These brands have captured our hearts with their commitment to sustainability and the passion behind the brands, as well as the efficacy of the products. We believe in the power of fragrance and how that can impact our wellbeing, which is something all of the brands we’re talking about hold close to them too… their products all smell amazing and work on a multi-sensory level.
Enjoy!
