I wanted to spread the word about this company that one of our readers gave me the heads-up on – it is The Lab Co. The company are concerned that fashion waste is killing our planet and their mission is to stop clothes going to landfill as their laboratory has developed formulas make our clothes and items last longer and smell amazingly natural. I must say the fragrances are exquisite. The company have created their formulas for specific fabrics, whether that is delicate silk, wool, cashmere or odour filled sportswear. Their solutions always gently, but effectively deliver results. I am impressed that their products are packed full of natural, plant derived and biodegradable ingredients and that powerful results are still achieved without any harmful toxic or environmental side effects. The company use plant based ingredients that are sustainably sourced, biodegradable, non-toxic and vegan. The Lab Co has an impressive company ethos which is better for us, better for our items and of course better for the world.
Cashmere & Wool Laundry Care Kit from The Lab Co.
This clever kit, of 300ml cashmere & wool wash and a 150ml mist have been specially formulated for cashmere, merino, and mohair blends. This means you can wash your expensive items and they will be cleaned, nourished and rejuvenated. It also means instead of regular and expensive trips to the dry cleaners, you can care for them at home, saving you valuable time and money. The mist makes the perfect partner for the wash. You don’t need to wash your cashmere after every wear, just refresh by giving them a spritz. How easy is that? No wonder I love that!
The fragrance is delightful, reminding me of a warm fireside in a bottle. Comforting cinnamon has been balanced with myrrh, known for its rejuvenating properties and finished off with rich cedarwood used for its natural moth repellent properties. The addition of cedarwood is a real blessing as anyone who has found a moth hole in their favourite sweater will be aware of how upsetting that is.
