We're thrilled to share the fantastic news that Bloom In Soap has won two prestigious awards at the Green Parent Natural Beauty Awards - and we couldn’t be prouder.

Let's find out.
About The Green Parent Natural Beauty Awards
The Green Parent Natural Beauty Awards, established in 2013, are held annually to honour and celebrate sustainability in the beauty industry. These awards recognise top products, brands, and innovators who are setting new standards for quality and pushing the boundaries of beauty. This year, the awards saw over 300 products competing in 30 different categories. The judging process was thorough, with each product judged by a panel composed of beauty editors, influencers, and parents. Each product underwent testing by at least two evaluators over a two-month period. The judges rated each entry based on criteria such as company ethics, sustainable packaging, and overall effectiveness, providing detailed reviews and ratings for each product.
Award-winning Spice & Shine Shea Butter Soap
We're so proud of our Spice & Shine Shea Butter Soap, which won a Bronze award in the 'Best Soap' category. This luxurious natural soap is a real treat for the skin. It’s packed with nutrient-rich ingredients that exfoliate and polish, leaving the skin feeling buttery soft. Turmeric helps improve skin tone and texture, while finely-ground walnut shell gently buffs away dead skin cells. Our raw, fair trade organic shea butter, ethically sourced directly from a women's Fairtrade Co-operative in Ghana (which you can find out more about here), retains moisture, and the soap is infused with the exotic aromas of frankincense and May Chang essential oils, known for their rejuvenating and skin-softening properties. Each natural soap is wrapped in a plantable which is impregnated with wildflower seeds for you to grow in your garden. This natural soap embodies our commitment to creating effective and indulgent natural skincare products while being kind to our planet.
Silver Award-Winning Petal Power Conditioning Shampoo Bar
Our Petal Power Conditioning Shampoo Bar, which won a Silver award in the 'Best Shampoo' category, is perfect for anyone with normal to dry, heat-damaged hair. This pH-balanced shampoo bar gently cleanses while enhancing shine with botanical extracts and hydrating glycerine, and is suitable for all hair types, including coloured hair. Inulin, a plant extract from chicory root, naturally conditions the hair, leaving it silky and shiny without buildup. Organic tomato seed oil locks in moisture and softens the hair shaft, while bamboo extract, rich in natural silica, strengthens hair follicles and promotes growth. Ylang-ylang oil, known as nature’s conditioner, regulates sebum and adds shine, reducing hair breakage. Handmade without harsh sulphates, this conditioning shampoo bar is a perfect example of our innovative approach to hair care that's gentle to the environment too.
Why shampoo bars are so great for hair and the environment
- Unlike traditional liquid shampoos, our conditioning shampoo bars don’t require plastic packaging, which significantly cuts down on waste.
- They’re highly concentrated, so they last much longer than liquid shampoos, giving you more washes per bar.
- Our conditioning shampoo bars are formulated with ingredients that gently cleanse and nourish the hair, and are free from harsh sulphates that are often found in commercial products.
Convenient and travel-friendly
One of the things we love most about shampoo bars is the convenience, especially when traveling. Our solid shampoo bars are compact, lightweight, and spill-proof, making them easy to pack in your carry-on or gym bag, with no more worrying about liquid restrictions at airports or messy spills in your luggage. Just purchase with a travel tin, and you’re good to go. Plus, they’re super easy to use—simply wet your hair, glide the bar over your scalp and hair, lather, and rinse thoroughly.
For a complete hair care routine, we recommend pairing our shampoo bars with our conditioner bars. After cleansing and rinsing your hair with the shampoo bar, glide the conditioner bar over your wet hair, focusing on the ends. Massage the product into your hair and scalp, then rinse thoroughly. This combination leaves your hair soft, shiny, and manageable, without any harsh sulphates. It’s the perfect match for anyone seeking a natural, vegan, and sustainable hair care routine.
If you're searching for essential everyday skincare for your travels, our travel soap in a tin is perfect for you. This space-saving solution is ideal for your skincare routine on holiday, fitting neatly into your carry-on luggage and making airport security a breeze! Available as a refill or in a durable, waterproof travel soap case made from rust-free aluminium, our travel soap allows you to continue caring for your skin with our high-quality, natural products while you're on the go. Available in a selection of scents, including our Bronze award-winning Spice & Shine natural soap!
Fragrance-free options for ultra sensitive skin
