Organic Monkey debuts UK’s first Fairtrade certified baby skin care range

Published: 16-Aug-2011

Also certified organic by the Soil Association

Organic Monkey has introduced the first Fairtrade Foundation certified range of baby products in the UK.

All products are said to be made with food grade oils, Fairtrade butters and high quality essential oils to ensure a natural, pure collection to pamper, soothe, nourish and protect.

The range is also certified by the Soil Association.

Products include Hello Mellow Organic Massage Oil £12.00 (125ml), a blend of organic essential oils to moisturise skin with sweet orange, lavender and Roman chamomile oils to aid well-being and help soothe restlessness and hyperactivity Bumfluff Organic Nappy Balm £10.50 (50ml) contains a blend of organic oils and Fairtrade shea butter with lavender and Roman chamomile essential oils to nourish and protect. Both products are also available unscented.

Cheeky Monkey Organic Cheek Rub Oil for Teething £7.50 (30ml) combines arnica, sweet almond, olive and sunflower oils with Roman chamomile, lavender and spearmint essential oils to help calm and relieve. Other products are Rock the Cradle Organic Scalp Oil and Belly Better Organic Tummy Oil. Prices range from £7.50 to £12.

Heidi and Claudine, founders of Organic Monkey, say: “Organic products are gentle enough for delicate skin and less drying, better used and received by your skin than synthetic substances. Organic ingredients haven’t been subjected to pesticides or artificial fertilisers and release less greenhouse gases so are better for the environment too.”
