Why we love it
Margarites is a beautiful village in Crete famous for its pottery artists. Manos the founder of Helleo met one of them, and after an interesting tour and a few tips, he collected some black, red and brown soil from the area and made his own clay. This soap is made with a mix of these three clays and some imagination!
Vegan-friendly. Not tested on animals.
Contains no detergents, SLS, alcohol, parabens, sorbates, silicones, sulphates, preservatives or artificial fragrances. Biodegradable and palm oil free. Comes in a recyclable paper inner wrapper and presented in a recycled kraft card box with a beautiful card detailing the natural beauty and story behind the product.
Approximately 9cm x 5.5cm x 3cm - 125g.

I bought my friend’s secret Santa gift from here and everything was perfect - the package was ordered and arrived within the stated time, the packaging was eco friendly and the products were just fantastic. I love that this company is doing something ethical, quietly and without a fuss but that it does it to the absolute best of its ability and exactly what you’d expect. Plus from looking at the website it’s a team of dedicated and fabulous women (and Lola the dog!) who are committed to what they do.
I’d definitely recommend and will be ordering again!
Item exactly as described and delivered well packed and on time as promised, thank you :)
Keep coming back, maybe not very often, to look for presents or useful stuff around the house. Always smooth and swift service; well wrapped packages usually pretty quick delivery too.
