Beauty, Ingredients, Skin Care
- Batty's Bath believes that cutting costs at the expense of skin care hurts us all. We never cheapen our products by working with ingredients that are chemical alternatives or substitutes to the real thing - Batty's bottom line is about healthy skin and happy people - not how many pennies she can squirrel away. Using pure ingredients that are naturally good for your skin or hair just makes sense.
- Batty's Bath's products are free of detergents, sulfates, phthalates, parabens, SLS (sodium lauryl sulphate), petrolatum/petrochemicals, glycols, formaldehyde donors, PEG's/PPG's, DEA (diethanolamine), TEA (triethanolamine), MEA (monoethanolamine),1, 4 dioxanes and other contaminates.
- Batty's Bath believes that everyone, including those with sensitivities and allergies, should be able to enjoy pampering bath & body products without harm, and formulates products by this guiding principal. And as such, we offer unscented, 100% natural, and vegan options. Additionally, Batty is always open to requests when we don't have an option that accommodates to a specific allergy. Feedback about what people are developing sensitivities to is how we continue to provide healthy, safe alternatives!
- When searching for relief from acne, rosacea, eczema, and other skin issues, Mother Nature knows best. Our special skin care lines are made with natural ingredients that have been known to work for centuries. With products in hand, we also offer the advice you need to follow a simple, practical skin care regiment that is affordable and effective.
- The attention and skill that goes into handmade products is worth it's weight in gold. Batty's Bath believes in being a part of the handmade community as well as giving back to it. Our products are each handmade by Batty, in small batches to ensure their freshness. Each product is packaged, labeled, and prepared by hand by Batty, Jena, Britt, or Tash (Batty's part-time assistants).
Sustainability
- Batty's Bath continues to keep a close eye on developments in eco-friendly packaging, biodegradable shipping materials, and sustainable farming practices to ensure every aspect of Batty's business and personal life is helping and not hindering. All developments that can be implemented are done so.
- Batty's Bath recycles, reuses, or upcyles all packaging that comes in from supply orders and is conscience not to purchase from companies that are not taking steps towards sustainability.
- Cornstarch packing peanuts are used to pad orders. These peanuts are completely biodegradable (they disintegrate when wet) so if you can't use them again, please put them in your compost pile.
- Since Batty's Bath is a two-room business run from Batty's home, no additional resources are used in the creation of our products. Living with an expert in reducing electrical/power usage, Batty's home becomes more and more efficient with each passing day.
Community, Charity, Animals
- Batty's Bath believes in supporting your local community. Give back more than you take, and always being mindful of how you can help. This philosophy guides Batty's charitable activities as well as her personal and business spending - All ingredients, packaging materials, and other resources are purchased from Canadian suppliers (most of which are within 2 hours or less from Batty's home-based studio).
- Batty's Bath strongly believes that testing bath and beauty products on animals is completely unnecessary. None of Batty's Bath products or ingredients have ever been or ever will be tested on animals.
- Batty feels a strong connect with animals and now that she doesn't work with them one-on-one anymore (besides her rescue dogs), she feels compelled to help support those who continue to work day in and day out giving abused, neglected, and unwanted animals a chance. A portion of the annual sales from Batty's Bath goes to the Ontario SPCA. All the profits from our dog shampoo goes to Ador-A-Bull Dog Rescue (Ontario). A portion of the monthly sales at Tabby's Treasures, goes to Animal Aide (St.Thomas, ON)
