Woodlot: Our New Fave Small Business

When going cruelty-free, some of the hardest stuff to find can be simple things like body wash, lotion, and even candles. Sometimes, the easiest way to find guaranteed cruelty-free (and usually vegan) products is to go small, with family owned and ran businesses who don't even have the access to animal testing or China's market. 

One of those amazing brands is Woodlot, a family-owned business based in Vancouver who creates lotions, candles, essential oils, mists and so much more. Today we're highlighting our fave products for ya'll, and check out their site here for even more.

The WildWood Candle

Made in recyclable glass jars, Woodlot candles are petroleum free, GMO free and phthalate free, burning for up to 40 hours. The wood-based scents are comforting without being boring or overwhelming.

The Body Lotion

With 3 refreshingly light scents, the Woodlot Body Lotions aren't greasy or too thick, but sink into the skin for deep hydration without the discomfort of climbing into sheets feeling damp. Formulated with sunflower oil, cocoa seed butter, olive oil, and other plant-based oil blends, these lotions are all natural and plant based in recyclable bottles. 

The Everyday Mist

If you're into aromatherapy, this calming mist will help relax your nerves while flying, traveling, and any other stressful situations. We also love it to help give skin a refresh in the morning, or lightly layered on top of hair as a perfume.
