I am lucky enough to live in an AOSB (area of outstanding beauty) Norfolk is one big green space, it positively glows in the bright light of summer sun. There are areas of ‘rewilding’ where wild ponies and long horned cattle roam freely, where the land is allowed to nurture itself as nature intended.. free from chemical or agricultural interference.
This has me thinking.. “why not ‘re wild’ your skin?”
By returning to the power of the plant and minerals that nature has to offer we too can glow in the bright summer sun!
ethica skincare is founded in nature. We use essentials and extracts, oils and butters, to blend complex formulations with valid results.
Take a look and see for yourself ….. rewild your skin.

Tomorrow we will be at the @duration brewery in wild Westacre to share in the magic of the plant pickers, the field foragers and the hedgerow hunters….for a foraged brew is in the making! Blackberries and mugwort among the blend for the magical mists of late summer.
With herbal balms, soothing soaks and mineral scrubs…..we look forward to seeing you there.

So its been a while!......you know how it is? life gets busy you vow to focus on whats important and the list of whats important grows and morphs into a list of endless tiny chores...and you lose sight of whats important, what mattered to you when you started.
Ethica has been growing organically, so many of you lovely ethica devotees send your orders with notes of enthusiasm and encouragement and I am delighted to receive them...thank you!
We are sticking to our principles here and will always aim to. We listen to you and your suggestions, we continue to search for natural super plant extracts and oils to boost and feed your skin and we keep packaging as recycled and recyclable as we can.....we're keeping the magic going and we love your input so....drop us a line.

The light in the morning here in Norfolk is beautiful, sun lighting up orange leaves reminding us of the glow of summer past.
It’s getting chilly though and the air is cold...so when you’re outside protecting your skin is important in order to prevent dry, irritated or flaky skin.
Layer on the moisture in the form of a serum or light facial oil first thing then a moisturiser or balm to form a protective barrier when you go outside.
Oh...and remember the sunscreen. 😘

just flicking through photos from the glorious months that have gone and found this beautiful hazy summer snap from July...I was transfixed and blissed out. X

with Jasmine, almond and citrus blossoms filling the air Corfu reminds me to think of the sources of the fragrant pure essentials we use to make skincare and of how women thru the centuries have harnessed the intoxicatingly powers of mother natures plant life to enrich...soothe...heal and fragrance their lives....how fortunate we are!

Norfolk has been decidedly chilly these last few days. Frosty fields means the central heating goes on to keep us toasty.
The problem though is that hot radiators mean dry and dusty atmosphere which in turn could dehydrate your skin, sinuses and cause dry eyes.
A bowl of water in the room will help to humidify as will house plants and turning the thermostat down just a fraction will not only help to save your skin but will lower your fuel bills too...and can make you feel less like a hybernating bear!
Moisturisers are super important in the winter months for hydration and protection and an aromatherapy mist can help to keep your skin looking dewy and calm.
