Aromatherapy & Homemade Body Care Products

If, like me, you want to drastically reduce the amount of chemicals in your home and take better care of your own health and that of your family, while at the same time being more conscious of the environmental impact of the products you use, you will love these products! They will help you to reduce your ecological footprint and protect you from disrupting your hormonal balance and filling your body with toxins and chemicals.

I am a certified aromatherapist, and all products are made upon order by myself, so nothing is made in big batches beforehand -- just your own order is prepared, by hand. I use all natural and organic, high-quality ingredients. No preservatives are used, so shelf time is limited to about 6-9 months, but each product is made upon order to guarantee the longest possible time for you to enjoy them (plus I mostly use amber coloured glass bottles to give them even longer shelf life -- and keeping the products in a cool place (e.g. the fridge) will also help preserve them longer. The products contain added vitamin E for skin health - this acts as a natural preservative too.

No soaps are used, only saponified oils (‘castile soaps’). Nearly all products are vegan (some lotions contain beeswax - you can always check with me to be sure). All products are free of palm oil, synthetic fragrances, synthetic colourants, preservatives and parabens and are GMO free.

These products are NOT available via my webshop (which you can find elsewhere on this website) – I understand this creates a bit more hassle for you, but as I make each product as a bespoke product especially for you, taking into account your own skin type, health issues, use by children or pregnant/breastfeeding women, etc., there is sometimes some communication back and forth involved. Also, the webshop would count too much in postage for you for most orders of more than 1 product. So this is currently the best way I can provide my services to you at the lowest price for you! I simply ask you to email me directly on japjeetkaur@shuniya-yoga.org for these orders, and we arrange your order that way.

To ensure safety with the use of essential oils, upon ordering please mention:

  • any allergies of the people who will be using the products
  • whether you or anyone else planning to use the products is pregnant or breastfeeding
  • if you intend to use products on children, and if so, their ages.

I strongly promote reuse and sustainability. So if you reuse your (cleaned) bottle or container a next time, the price of the container will be fully deducted off the final price.

Any products to be posted out will be posted standard 2nd class UK postage, unless you ask for 1st class or tracked & signed for. International postage is also possible. Postage costs come on top of your order.

My NEAL’S YARD ORGANIC REMEDIES WEBSHOP is accessible HERE (there is a link at the top of each webpage of this website too).

Testimonials on our Products

“Japjeet, the deodorant is AWESOME!! I haven't gone for a major work-out yet but I had it on for a 16-hour period where I went for a small run and was active enough, and I don't smell of sweat!! I think it might absorb sweat too! I like that it goes on dry, and it smells really nice. (I find the smell of the essential oils goes after a couple of hours, but then the smell is completely neutral until you shower again).” (K.T. on her tea tree, lemon-grass, sweet orange & grapefruit deodorant)

“Hi Japjeet, please can you make me two more deodorants just like mine. I am giving them to my sister and her friend (my sister works for L'Oreal and her friend GSK - yours/mine worst believers!!). Going to try and see if I (we) can convince them... Seriously best deodorant ever.” (K. on her tea tree, lemongrass, sweet orange & grapefruit deodorant)

“The face oil is AMAZING. I can't stop smelling it and it feels amazing for the face.” (R.P. on her custom-made facial oil with grapeseed oil, rose, lavender, sandalwood, ylang-ylang & frankincense)

“Products are absolutely stunning!!!” (C.L.Q. on her body wash, hand wash and body oil with frankincense, myrrh & sweet orange)
