What kind of ingredients do you use? We carefully select high-quality, naturally inspired ingredients for all our formulations. Our commitment to sustainability means we use responsibly sourced palm and vegetable oils across our bath and body soap collections, ensuring our products are as kind to the environment as they are to your skin. Are your products 100% natural? We aim to use natural or naturally derived ingredients wherever possible, without ever compromising the safety or performance of our products. In some cases, we use small amounts of preservatives to ensure product quality and safety — these are always well within approved safety limits. All of our products are proudly paraben-free. Are your products tested on animals? No — never. We completely share the public’s concern that animals should not be used to test cosmetics or toiletries. None of our products or ingredients are tested on animals. All of our formulations are free from animal-derived ingredients, with the exception of natural bee products such as honey and beeswax, which are carefully and sustainably sourced. This means our products are suitable for vegetarians. Do you use microbeads in your products? At ARRAN Sense of Scotland, we care deeply about protecting our environment. We do not use plastic microbeads as exfoliants in any of our products. Instead, we use only natural, biodegradable scrub agents, ensuring our formulations are gentle on your skin and kind to marine life.
