Many of our products do not contain gluten, however we do make and store all of our products within the same facilities. As a warning for those with extreme allergies, we take great care to prevent cross contamination, but there’s always a risk that they’ve come into contact with gluten-containing ingredients. Transparency is important to us, and you can find a list of the ingredients for every product on its packaging (if applicable), gift insert, in-store sign and our website product pages. Check the individual product’s ingredients list before use.
Scent is such an important part of our identity, something that makes us who we are. Most of our products contain essential oils, but even our most gentle products have fragrance due to the fact that the ingredients themselves have a scent. In order to remove that scent and be truly “fragrance-free”, we would have to introduce more synthetics, which isn’t the direction that our company wishes to take at this time.
Many of our products do not contain nuts, however we do make and store all of our products within the same facilities. As a warning for those with extreme allergies, we take great care to prevent cross contamination, but there’s always a risk that they’ve come into contact with nut-containing products.

We recommend keeping your naked products in a dry, cool environment away from sunlight and excess heat. You can use any airtight container, a glass jar or one of our tins. If you use the product in the shower or bath, make sure that you let it drain and dry out before storing it.
