Company ethos
As a small company we are able to use a synergy of people skills and equipment and appropriate technology to the best advantage.
Basic formulations
Basic formulations avoid highly chemically processed ingredients. A minimum of chemical manipulation is involved between the raw materials and the final product.
Herbs
Body & Face St Cyrus Ltd try to use UK−sourced herbs as far as possible with the herbs used holistically. All herbs are purchased from accredited suppliers of medicinal-quality herbs.
We use the latest scientific / technological knowledge to get the full functionality from the basic plant material − avoiding processing / refining or synthesising of the active components of natural materials.
Herb extracts are made specifically for each end product in whatever form is most appropriate − be it water, oil or tincture based.
Pure (essential) Oils
Pure oils are obtained only from accredited members of the Aromatherapy Trades Council − for more information see Links to related sites.
Water
For all aqueous herbal applications we use only pure Deeside Natural Mineral Water − a unique spring water with clinically proven medicinal benefits. The Links to related sites give further details.
For processing we use the naturally soft water coming from a nearby loch at the head of Glen Esk in the Grampian Mountains.
