Awake Organics : Our Story

Melissa Kimbell | Awake Organics | UK Beauty Brand

Welcome! It’s amazing to have you here.

My name is Melissa Kimbell and I’m the founder of Awake Organics. I’m an entrepreneur, an activist, a mum doing her best, and I’m super passionate about our natural world and alternative health. If you’re avoiding controversial chemicals in your cosmetics, looking for ways to live a natural and holistic lifestyle, or are fed up with waste and plastic piling up on beaches, you’ve come to the right place, my friend!

I’ve dedicated my life to formulating effective, natural skin care and deodorant that helps you enjoy luxury without compromising on sustainability (you can read about my personal journey here). Our products are always 100% natural, and we have a small supply chain with 89% of our ingredients and packaging made in the UK. Plus, you can relax into the Awake experience and never have to worry about parabens, SLS, aluminium or petro-chemicals. Because, who has time to worry about that?!

a story of transparency, and my family working together to make the world just a little bit better

Awake Organics is a growing family business based in Northamptonshire. We work in a studio, and all of our products are made by people, not machines. Every single product we make is carefully formulated, using clever, organic and sustainable ingredients. We buy our ingredients and packaging from UK suppliers, keeping money in the local economy. And we advocate for the earth by using materials that leave little impact. In fact, we’re even piloting a #ZeroWaste500Club which is on course to reduce CO2 emissions by 4.3 tonnes by April 2020.

Awake Organics is a natural beauty brand born from the heart. We’ve created a platform of resources about the things I know you care about, and natural products that help you feel healthy, beautiful and confident every day!

We also make boring tasks, like applying deodorant or moisturiser, something to look forward to every day. How? By integrating alternative health modalities like crystal healing and aromatherapy into our natural formulas.

We are proudly certified Cruelty Free.

Above all, we love what we do. Our products are alive and when you apply them with your whole heart and mind, your body will respond in positive ways. We never test on animals and can guarantee that there is no animal testing in our supply chain. We are proudly certified Cruelty Free by the Cruelty Free International Association (Leaping Bunny).

I’m grateful for you and your support. Thank you for reading. If you are looking for ways to improve your health and wellness, you should join our Live Community on Facebook, Twitter & Instagram, sign up to our newsletter here, and join our Natural Holistic Living UK group on Facebook.

Keep in touch,

Melissa x

Instagram post 2191023003353234832_3044723324 THIS IS WHAT PLANT SHAMPOO LOOKS LIKE!_

No SLS, colours, synthetic fragrance, harsh preservatives, Petroleum byproducts, detergents or plastic._

Just a clever, add-water powder made from coconuts, guarana seed, rosemary and lemongrass._

It's pH balanced, so your hair won't feel like straw afterwards._

AND..._

It actually cleans your hair. Not like most natural shampoos that leave a greasy buildup after a couple weeks._

Watch the demo on our website and discover if this really is "the unicorn" of natural shampoo!_

Instagram post 2188455073386200986_3044723324 THINGS HAVEN'T GONE TO PLAN_

The incident at London Bridge meant a large area in London was sealed off._

Fortunately, Flat Iron Square is on the perimeter and @pebblemagazine #pebblefestive is still going on as planned._

But unfortunately, James and I needed to travel the night before and we weren't able to access the hotel._

This morning I'm looking at my suitcases and thinking about all the late nights we did this week, the people we won't meet and the money we lost._

But while I'm gutted not to be joining the market today, it's nothing in comparison to what happened to the innocent people who were just sitting, sipping their lattes. Their families are in hell this morning. _

I'm grateful to be alive, loved and healthy. Makes me want to seize the day!_
