Christmas Gift Guides for Grown Ups! At this time of year we are often sent a selection of what’s new in the shops that is perfect for presents at Christmas. We like to put them all together in appropriate lists and today is the turn for gifts for the grown ups!
Made by Coopers
Made by Coopers is a modern apothecary brand crafting natural products to boost and balance mental and emotional well-being.
The brand was formed after the founder, and now apothecary expert Clare, found solace from her all-consuming anxiety disorders in essential oils and powerful plants. Clare’s journey took her to India and back, where she learnt her craft, and found her ‘cure’, and at that moment she wanted to share her knowledge with anyone she could – so Made By Coopers began.
What makes every single Made By Coopers product different is:
- It’s full of clean, nutrient-rich essential oils and botanical ingredients.
- It’s free from parabens, SLS’s, sulphates, mineral oil, artificial colours and synthetic fragrances.
