What’s in your scrubs? Are they natural?
Yes — our scrubs are made with skin-loving, natural ingredients, thoughtfully chosen to exfoliate, hydrate and soften without any harshness or synthetic fillers. Like everything at Earth Lab, they're handmade in small batches and formulated with care.
Here’s a closer look at what’s inside:
🌿 Sugar – A gentle, natural exfoliant that helps buff away dry skin without scratching or irritating.
🌿 Shea Butter – Rich and nourishing, shea butter deeply moisturises and helps support the skin barrier, leaving your skin soft and smooth after exfoliating.
🌿 Sweet Almond Oil – Lightweight and vitamin-rich, this oil helps replenish moisture, making skin feel silky and conditioned.
🌿 Glycerin – A plant-based humectant that draws moisture into the skin, helping to keep it hydrated even after rinsing.
🌿 Polysorbate 20 – A naturally derived emulsifier that helps the oils rinse off cleanly with water, so you’re not left feeling greasy or slippery in the shower.
🌿 Water – Used to help blend and balance the formulation for a smooth, spreadable texture.
🌿 Cetearyl Olivate & Sorbitan Olivate – These olive-based emulsifiers help bind the water and oils together for a creamy consistency, while also supporting the skin’s natural moisture barrier.
🌿 Xanthan Gum – A natural thickener that gives the scrub its lovely texture and helps it hold together in the jar.
🌿 Gluconolactone & Sodium Benzoate – A gentle, broad-spectrum preservation system that helps keep the product safe and stable without the need for synthetic preservatives.
🌿 Essential Oils – For a fresh, uplifting scent — naturally antibacterial, too.
🌿 Mica – Adds a subtle shimmer and soft glow to the skin. We only use ethically sourced mica.
Everything is chosen with intention — no hidden nasties, no parabens, no synthetic fragrance. Just real ingredients your skin will recognise and love. Because we believe skincare should feel good, smell natural, and be safe enough to use every day.
Do you use preservatives?
Yes, we do — but only the gentle, skin-safe kind.
At Earth Lab, we believe in keeping our products as fresh and natural as possible, while also making sure they’re safe for you to use. That’s why we use minimal, carefully chosen preservatives — just enough to protect against bacteria, mould and yeast, especially in products that contain water (like scrubs or creams).
We don’t use harsh preservatives like parabens, phenoxyethanol or anything with questionable safety. Instead, we choose options like:
🌿 Gluconolactone & Sodium Benzoate — a broad-spectrum preservative system that’s approved for natural skincare and gentle on sensitive skin
🌿 Vitamin E (tocopherol) — a natural antioxidant that helps extend the life of oils and butters
🌿 Essential oils — some, like tea tree or lemongrass, offer mild antimicrobial properties (though we never rely on these alone)
We’re always guided by the balance of safety, simplicity and skin-friendliness. Our products are made fresh in small batches, and we recommend using them within 3–6 months for best results — because truly natural skincare is meant to be enjoyed fresh.
How long will a jar last?
It depends on how much you use each time — but here’s a general guide:
🌿 Small jar: around 3 to 5 scrubs
🌿 Large jar: about 5 to 8 scrubs
Because our scrubs are rich and concentrated (no fillers, no fluff), a little goes a long way. You only need a small scoop to gently exfoliate and nourish your skin. For best results, use on damp skin and massage in circular motions — then rinse clean for soft, glowing skin.
Each jar is handmade fresh, so we recommend using it within 3–6 months for maximum freshness..
