Sustainability is crucial for combating climate change which is putting more and more pressure on wildlife. Drought and heat extremes have for example caused important wildlife habitats, such as peat bogs, wetlands, and heathlands, to dry out, threatening various species...
Passionate about conservation, I support the Staffordshire Wildlife Trust, a charity dedicated to the conservation of Staffordshire's wildlife and wild places. Recent examples of their work include the restoration of of wetlands at the historic Shugborough Estate and also the acquisition of land to create a new wildlife haven in Rugeley with a range of habitats, including wetlands, to attract and support a greater variety of wildlife. Dragonflies, little egrets, wading birds and even otters will benefit from the project.
When it comes to choosing skincare, organic ingredients are much kinder to skin and to our planet given that use of pesticides and other harmful chemicals are vastly reduced 🦋. Plant-powered organic skincare is also high in antioxidants and packed with skin-loving nutrients which support collagen- leaving skin firmer, softer and more supple ✨️
Rather than mass-produced skincare from an industrial overseas factory, as a skincare artisan, my 100% organic products are sustainably handcrafted with love in small batches in Staffordshire, for fresher results and reduced environmental impact 🫶.
Packaged in recyclable glassware with minimal plastic, sustainability and having a positive impact on the planet through my clean, synthetic-free skincare has always been one of my core values for S.N.S 🙏
Kind to skin, kind to our planet 🌿.
Take care, love Louise, S.N.S 🤍 xx

🤍💛 January can be a struggle with the bleak weather and long dark nights, so let's use aromatherapy to boost those positive, happy feelings as part of your daily skincare ritual 🙏
My uplifting, joyful and revitalising blend with zesty May Chang, Geranium Rose, Lavender and Carrot Seed essential oils, was created to enhance feelings of positivity and well-being, helping you to combat low mood and to restore a sense of serenity 🤍💛
The 'Uplifting' aroma mood blend is also effective at keeping skin clear (Lavender oil works to kill bacteria, this can prevent and heal blemishes). Even better, this deeply moisturising facial balm (packed with antioxidants and vitamins) can even be used to cleanse skin, using the heavenly 'hot-cloth' method- to boost the spa at home experience.
Winter can leave skin feeling dry but this gloriously replenishing cream with nourishing, soothing Shea Butter, leaves skin super soft. Rejuvenating Rosehip Seed oil and Raspberry Seed oil help boost collagen production for improved tone and elasticity.
Blissfully indulgent and rich, my House Of Shea Facial Balm is designed to be savoured mindfully, not rushed- a cherished part of your daily self-care. 100% organic and vegan-friendly, it's sustainably handcrafted from naturally active, nourishing botanicals which reward you with radiant, flawless skin ✨
Take care, love Louise, S.N.S 🤍🍃

"I have a therapist. Her name is nature."🌲🤍❄️

Winter is in full swing, however, it's still beautiful outside (especially on the cold, frosty mornings). I embrace January as a peaceful, restful period of reflection and bunkering down with the cosy 'Hygge' way of life after the busy (sometimes draining) festive season. However, wrapping up and spending time outside in nature is a powerful way to boost our well-being, especially by practising mindfulness.

Mindfulness means slowing down and using our senses to truly be present in the moment. This quietening of the mind and appreciating natural beauty is an invaluable part of our self-care (especially in January, which many find tough 🙏 , it's when 'SAD' is at its peak).

Nature is fragile, vulnerable, and needs nurturing too. We all need to do our bit to protect the future of our precious planet. If you love nature like I do, be rest assured that my vegan, high-performance skincare is made from the purest 100% certified organic botanical ingredients, cultivated without use of any harsh toxic chemicals which are harmful to our planet and wildlife. Happily, they are higher in precious antioxidants as a result (great for keeping our skin youthful).
🌿 Nature is powerful, let it work its full magic on you; mind, body & soul ✨️
Take care and have a lovely weekend, love Louise, S.N.S xx

It's New Year's Resolutions time - have you made yours yet - perhaps when celebrating the entrance of 2026 ?✨️ If one of your N.Y.R's is to be kinder to the planet and its creatures, maybe starting with trying Veganuary, then fantastic! Finding truly vegan-friendly skincare that's also high-performance, isn't always easy. That's why I created my own 100% organic, vegan-friendly skincare that's completely free from chemical synthetic ingredients 🌿.
The Hurray For Shea collection is fragrance-free, so is even loved by sensitive types - nothing but the purest certified organic, gentle plant-based ingredients (no essential oils or synthetic fragrance).
Cruelty-free and handcrafted by myself in the Staffordshire countryside, these formulations nurture the precious skin barrier. Skincare superstars Rosehip Seed Oil and Raspberry Seed Oil rejuvenate the skin. Anti-inflammatory Grapeseed oil and Pomegranate Seed Oil keep breakouts at bay. You can even use the face balm for gentle but thorough cleansing using the 'hot-cloth' method.
Packed with age-defying antioxidants, the result is glowing, super soft skin, which looks naturally radiant. Welcome to vegan-friendly skincare without compromising on the results ! ✨️🌿
Take care, love Louise, S.N.S xx

After the hectic run up to Christmas, it's time to relax, get cosy and indulge in a little self-care luxury.

Totally plant-based, my House Of Shea wax melts are highly fragranced with pure essential oils known for their stress-relieving / mood enhancing properties. Surround yourself with the zingy 'Uplifting' or sensuous 'Calming' aromatherapy blend- both are perfect for helping you to practice mindfulness- through heavenly aromas you will want to savour 🧘‍♀️

Handcrafted with sustainable 'Eco-soy', Shea Butter and essential oils, these luxury, non-toxic melts are synthetic-free, vegan AND eco-friendly.

✨️ If you are close to finishing work for Christmas, or have already, the break can be the ideal time for you to help your mental well-being. Practising gratitude is a powerful part of our self-care tool kit to help get us back to a positive place and regain perspective if the run up to Christmas has taken its toll.

Gratitude, also referred to as gratefulness, involves intentionally recognizing and appreciating the positive aspects of life. Mindfulness and meditation are great, but I love practising gratitude through journalling. This helps me download my thoughts and that's when I see my world through a different lens e.g ;

➡️Although it made me extra busy in November, I am so pleased I transformed our sons' scruffy TV room downstairs into what is now our Hygge room which we all absolutley love as a relaxed retreat / cosy room.

➡️The last few weeks has brought upon us an especially rough period where we've ramped up support levels for my close family to be there for them at the toughest of times. It's reminded me about what really matters on Christmas Day (it's not about presents or the perfect turkey, but everyone's happiness, health and just appreciating being together).

➡️ I've had a stressful time rehabilating a rescue Guinea Pig we took in as a companion for our 4 year old piggie (we recently lost his brother to cancer). Getting them to bond was not easy, or quick, as the new addition had previously been terrorised/ bullied by piggies in his previous home. Seeing them content together now and grooming each other makes me feel gratitude that the stress was worth it.

Journalling reminds me how much I love and believe in my work (helping others through my organic skincare / and restoring wrecks of properties with my dad). Journalling also reminds me how much I love being a mum- even though my eldest often treats me like an Uber service!

I will definitely be using the break to slow down, cherish time with my hubbie and sons, reflect, and practice gratitude 🙏🎄. Wishing you a very Merry Christmas, take care, love Louise, S.N.S xx

➡️ A few drops of this rejuvenating facial oil massaged into cleansed skin daily will give you soft skin AND a real glow boost, thanks to nourishing, restorative Rosehip, Pomegranate and Raspberry seed oils. It's perfect for face yoga practice too. (Also available in 10ml travel size.)
➡️ The luxuriously rich facial balm is super nurturing and soothing thanks to organic Shea Butter which restores and protects without greasy residue. Deeply moisturising and nutrient rich, you can also use it to cleanse skin (using the hot-cloth method). It's easily absorbed and leaves skin feeling silky soft.

✨️Whether glammed up for party time or cosying up with friends / family over Christmas, we want to feel confident about our skin- without spending hours piling on make-up or feeling pressured into having expensive & painful procedures such as Botox. S.N.S was born out of my quest for true Clean Skincare that's better for our well-being and for natural skin confidence.

✨️ Golden Rule - your skin barrier holds the key to radiant, glowing skin. A big Pro-ageing / Well-ageing advocate, I am all for a natural but effective holistic approach. Rather than striving to look twenty years younger, I focus on keeping fine lines minimised through 100% organic skincare that supports and regenerates my skin barrier. Waterless, synthetic free skincare, that’s made with only certified organic ingredients is high in antioxidants, nourishing vitamins and anti-inflammatories.

Golden Rule ✨️ Boost your Collagen levels. Collagen production depletes as we age, but rather than using harsh, synthetic retinoid serums, I entrust collagen boosting plant extracts such as Rosehip Seed Oil and Raspberry Seed oil to boost elasticity and keep my skin feeling soft and plump. The vitamin A, or retinol, in Rosehip seed oil encourages skin cell turnover.

✨️ Secret- flawless skin is possible naturally. It’s common for us to notice hyperpigmentation e.g. age spots appearing as we age (even using sunscreen!), happily organic ingredients such as Grapeseed Oil and Rosehip Seed help these to fade and even disappear with regular use.

And breakouts...? Even though forty plus skin can be a challenge due to hormones, thankfully organic Pomegranate Seed oil has got us covered. A unique source of the super anti-inflammatory Punic acid, acne is soon sent packing.

✨️ Secret - smoother looking skin can be achieved without Botox. Face yoga is wonderful at helping skin look firmer. I do just one targeted exercise between my eyebrows morning and night with my Radiance Facial Oil to help keep frown lines minimal.

Let's forget 'anti-ageing' and embrace ageing well with non-toxic Clean Skincare ✨️🤍 Take care, love Louise, S.N.S

Unlock the door to longevity, glow, comfort, and clean ingredients with the purest, high-performance organic skincare...

More and more of us are conscious about the health of our skin and the planet, but as we age we want a boost to feel confident in our skin. Organic skincare is not only gentle on skin, but delivers impressive results.

Formulations containing synthetic ingredients are often actually guilty of working against the above goals. Any short term visable gains from using them are outweighed by the detrimental effect on the delicate skin barrier. Harsh, potentially toxic synthetic ingredients can lead to dehydration, dryness and dull looking skin where fine lines are exaggerated.

My 100% organic formulations are handrafted with nothing but certified organic botanicals which are naturally higher in rejuvenating antioxidants and vitamins. Fantastically nourishing, this is skincare that is designed to restore, replenish and protect the skin barrier - which ultimately locks in moisture for soft, radiant skin. Anti-inflammatory Shea Butter and Pomegranate Seed oil soothes, Grapeseed Oil clears blemishes and fades age spots. Collagen-boosting ingredients such as Rosehip Seed oil and Raspberry Seed oil help to improve elasticity and reduce fine lines ✨️

The use of organic farming within the beauty and skincare industry can provide many solutions to the current ecological issues we face. The soil used on organic farms stores twice as much carbon as non-organic farms, meaning that this excessive amount of carbon is being kept out of the atmosphere. The prohibited use of nitrogen fertilisers on organic farms also means that they are using less energy and helping biodiversity. On average, organic farms are home to 50% more plants, insects, and birds than non-organic farms 🦋
Free from synthetic, potentially toxic ingredients, my formulations are also vegan-friendly and cruelty-free 🫶.

✨️ Pro-ageing fact: Stress causes the body to release hormones like cortisol, which can lead to collagen breakdown in the skin and damage cells through oxidative stress. Collagen is the protein that keeps skin firm and elastic.

Stress can also interfere with sleep, which is when the body repairs itself, further contributing to the ageing process. Given it is an especially hectic time of year, it's therefore even more vital to take some time out to unwind!
High performance, organic skincare that's packed with vitamins and antioxidants will work towards combating the effects of stress, but here's some ideas to help bring down those stress levels:
➡️ Practice mindfulness to help you slow down. Use your senses to truly savour something (even a frothy cappuccino), in a peaceful environment, or take a walk outside in nature. (Face yoga using organic skincare is amazing for mindfulness practice too.)
➡️ Practice gratitude through journaling. This can help restore perspective.

➡️ Essential oils can help us to manage stress levels holistically. Take my 'Calming' aromatherapy blend; Geranium oil has been shown to help combat anxiety, balance hormones, as well as promote menstrual cycle regularity during perimenopause. Frankincense is well known for its stress / anxiety relieving properties. Ideal for your evening bed-time ritual, the Ylang Ylang and Patchouli essential oils help prepare you for a good night’s sleep 🙏🤍
✨️ So remember, pro-ageing and staying skin confident as we age is not just about our skincare routine 🤍🙏.
Take care, love Louise, S.N.S 🍃 xx
