BASE
Our ingredients decoded
We want to make sure that you know what you are cleaning your house with… Believe it or not, (it’s not actually necessary for us to do this as there is no legal requirement for cleaning products to list what’s actually in them… shocking I know!)
So, we have created a list of what we use and why so that you can feel confident that your home is safe for everyone.
