Vitamin E Oil is an ingredient that can be found in all of our creams here at Sweet Cecily’s.
The oil, which is naturally extracted from plant oils, has been found to have several different benefits from minimizing the appearance of scars to its ability to seal in moisture on the skin.
This is a wonderful ingredient that helps our crems to keep your face and body feeling & looking great!

This month, we are showing our support for those w

This month, we are showing our support for those who have or have previously had Breast Cancer. This is something that we are passionate about as each one of our team has sadly experienced the effects of breast cancer on a loved one.

In the UK, one woman is diagnosed with breast cancer every 10 minutes. And 1/7 women will develop breast cancer throughout their lifetimes. And, although it is rare in men, there is still around 370 males being diagnosed with it on a yearly basis.

We should all aim to check our breast at least once a month to detect any changes that could potentially be a sign of breast cancer. As the earlier it is detected, the more chance it is of being treatable.

Check out our second photo to see the different symptoms of Breast Cancer.

Ps – You might have noticed we are all wearing matching pink t-shirts today. Keep your eyes peeled over the coming weeks to find out what they are for…

The weather may be quickly changing into the colder months, but we’re not ready to let go of summer scents☀️

Our Citrus & Walnut body scrub is a fresh and fruity moisturising scrub which also gently exfoliates and cleanses, easily getting rid of your dead skin.

Top Tip: Using a body scrub before shaving can help you have a smoother shave and to free ingrown hairs!

Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate, Glyceryl Stearate SE &

Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate, Glyceryl Stearate SE & Stearyl Alcohol are three of the main ingredients that we use in all our creams here at Sweet Cecily’s.
You may think that they sound like harsh chemicals. However, all three are natural ingredients!

Each providing different benefits including:
• Helping the skin to stay soft
• Creating a protective barrier on the skin which prevents it from losing moisture
• Protecting the skin from radical damage.
The list goes on...

They may not be the prettiest of ingredients, but they certainly do have many great advantages for our skin.

Over the next couple of weeks, we will be posting a blog to explain in depth why all three ingredients are such a big part in the cream making process.

This week at Sweet Cecily’s we’re celebrating

This week at Sweet Cecily’s we’re celebrating National Dessert Day!🧁

Not only do we like to eat desserts, but we also like to give you a taste of deliciousness by mixing certain flavours with our natural ingredients, giving you our bestselling Victoria Sponge Cake and Red Velvet Cake lip balms. These balms don’t just smell great, but they also leave your lips feeling and looking moisturised and cared for.

We hope your week is full of desserts!🍰

Our Rose Water Toner can be used in seconds while

Our Rose Water Toner can be used in seconds while giving you a whole bunch of benefits! Using it every morning and every night after cleansing, some of the benefits are;
- Reducing anxiety! A study in 2016 found that the smell of Rose Water not only helps your skin feeling soothing and calm, but also you!
- It can help sooth sensitive skin due to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties
- If you find that some makeup removers are irritable to your skin, Rose Water can be used as a makeup remover, gently dissolving your makeup, and finally removing it with a cotton pad
Our Toner comes in a spray bottle which makes for a quick and easy way to refresh your skin. We recommend that you use a cotton pad to easily remove residue and impurities. Handy hint – spray another round of Rose toner after to provide your skin with additional moisture!
Tip of the day: Mix the Rose Toner with our Pink (For sensitive skin), Green (for oily skin) or Red clay (for normal skin) to double the benefits of each product.

All the team wish you a happy weekend and a happy time looking after your precious skin!

Over the next couple of weeks, we will be giving y

Over the next couple of weeks, we will be giving you an insight into the natural ingredients which we use in our products here at Sweet Cecily’s.

Since working here, I have come across an array of natural components from Beeswax to Cocoa butter. However, I have found that my favourite ingredient so far has to be the Sea Buckthorn. Deep red in colour with a slight shimmer, this fruit pulp oil is high in Omega 7 & Vitamin A, C & E.

We add this into our Sea Buckthorn Berry hand cream to help hydrate sore and dry hands (perfect for this time of year!)

You can also find this gorgeous oil in our Sea Buckthorn & Frankincense Night Cream.
Sea Buckthorn Berry has been found to improve the skins elasticity and also promotes the regeneration of your skin overnight.

I think we can all agree on how pretty this oil looks! 😍

This week importantly highlights World Mental Heal

This week importantly highlights World Mental Health Day. A day when we reflect on the significance of speaking out and sharing our feelings with others.

At Sweet Cecily’s, we encourage a sense of openness and honesty within the team. If you are having a bad day and let your colleagues know, we will try and organise our time, so you get to do a task in HQ that you enjoy or if you need some time alone, we try and work round that too. Some of the jobs that we do here such as pouring the lip balms can be very therapeutic and can provide a great environment to slow down and be mindful. This often leads to us into deep conversations about many different areas of our lives, from relationships to families and times when we ourselves have struggled.

Out of work, we all have our ways of engaging in self-care, from relaxing in a long hot, candle lit bath to walking along the beach.

What’s your favourite way to give yourself some self care? Let us know in the comments (our favourites include the Soothing Bath Infusions & our Face Masks).

Here’s 4 reasons why you should add our Sea Buck

Here’s 4 reasons why you should add our Sea Buckthorn & Frankincense Night Cream into your evening skincare routine!

1. All our ingredients are natural, cruelty free and free from SLS & Parabens (which basically means no nasties or harsh chemicals!)
2. The cream contains Evening Primrose Oil which has been proven to increase moisture and firmness of the skins, as well as fatigue resistant
3. We make it right here in our little factory in sunny #Whitby!
4. A whole lot of love, care, attention, and hard work (our arms start to ache after 20 minutes of whisking!) has been put into every single pot. We are not a massive company using fancy machinery, it’s just us and our hands!

Head on over to our website to check out the range of skincare we produce and spruce up your skincare routine!

A Christmas Miracle! Due to all of you lovely lot

A Christmas Miracle! Due to all of you lovely lot that order our products, we have had to create a new space in our warehouse!

The additional space will mean that we are able to produce many more of our ever popular Make Your Own Lip Balm kits and have space to store them in the coming months, as we prepare for the busiest period of the year (Christmas time!).

The new room is one of many new changes we are making here at Sweets Cecily’s HQ, in fact tomorrow we are getting a fancy new desk, which we are all very excited about! 😊 #shopsmall #naturalskincare #whitbybusinesses #supportlocal #etsyuk

You may have seen on our stories over the last week that me and Beth have been learning how to make hand creams! Our hand creams have been made with completely natural ingredients and developed to replenish and quickly soak into skin.🙌

On top of the constant use of hand sanitizer over the last year, and now the humidity in the air starting to plunge, it’s important to take care of our hands. Check out the full range on our website.
