Choosing the Right Natural Skin Care For Your Body
At Hippy Heaven Natural Beauty, we take your skin care very seriously, choosing only the highest quality ingredients to prepare our skin and body care products.
Wherever possible, organic raw ingredients are used, and our preservation choices take into account the health of your skin, the safety and efficacy of your products, and the best possible shelf life. To read more on any ingredients used, please view our ingredients glossary, and should you have any questions, please email us.
We choose to use essential oils in several of our products, for their amazing properties and abilities in skin and body care. There are, however, occassions where precautions must be taken in the use of essential oils, outlined below.
We recommend customers undertake their own research into any oils or ingredients used in our products before deciding to purchase. Should you be interested in a certain product, but prefer it without certain ingredients, just let us know and we will create it to your specifications.
