I spoke to Cris the creator of the delightful Skin Blossom products the other day just to find out a little bit about why she decided to make certified organic body care products.
What struck me is how similar we are really both busy mums trying to cram in too much into the day – with one exception Cris is expecting her 2nd child and due to give birth very very soon! Hope all goes well Cris.
The range Cris offers includes a hand cream, body lotion and body wash all of which I must say are delightful. I get really cracked hands from riding my Brompton to work and the other day I forgot my gloves and cracked my knuckles but I blobbed on a great load of the hand cream and after a few applications the cracks were much better! Good going I think…
One of Cris’s main drivers for making this range is to provide certified organic products which are affordable. I think Cris has done this really well as all the products come in at £6.00 or under. Cris has had lots of experience making her own blends for her family and it was this experience which lead her to create Organic Bloom. It was difficult to gain Certification from the Soil Association, Cris explained as there are many procedures which need to be adhered. Cris wanted to create credible and affordable products so Soil Association Certification was the only way to achieve this in her eyes.
Cris is already planning her next additions to the range – facial moisturiser and cleanser, which will be available in the new year. Even though Cris will have a new little baba she plans to keep up the pace and launch her marketing and pr plan to raise the profile of the brand so that more people get to hear about the great range.
