We lived on a boat for three years in the Caribbean after crossing the Atlantic (and losing our engine, though that’s another story), as well as in Florida after the hurricane hit the Virgin Islands in 2017. We are happy to be back on this side of the pond (no mosquitoes and no hurricanes), though glad we had the experience we did, which gave us the idea for our eco company.

MY MORNING ROUTINE
My morning routine tends to rush around getting the kids ready for school before a later, fairly healthy breakfast of home-made yogurt or cereal/porridge and oat milk or avocado and boiled eggs (I am lucky to get fresh eggs from my neighbour). If I have time, I do a quick morning meditation from The Mindful Movement but usually try and do a sleep meditation instead which helps me to switch off at night. If it’s nice weather, I cycle to work about a mile from my house. Of course I regularly use my hair care bars, face cleansing bar, soap bar and my home-made cleanser, toner, eye make up remover, all of which will be available on my recipe blog page as ‘How To’ videos over the next few months.

MY FUTURE PLANS
After much formulating and introducing two additional economical hair care ranges, including for the hotel industry. We are now focused on expanding the wholesale retail side of the business both nationally and internationally.

3 THINGS ABOUT THE SOLID BAR COMPANY

  1. Our first product was our Lemongrass Repellent bars; which we spent two years formulating in the Caribbean to work against both mosquitoes and biting flies.
  2. The range has been endorsed by The Prince Albert of Monaco Foundation.
  3. My background is in horticulture so I enjoy growing and using herbs for my soaps and balms, including Chamomile, yarrow, Calendula, Nepeta as well as some fruit and veg for the family.
