OUR PROFESSION

Are you herbalists?

Marie-Christine is an accredited herbalist therapist. Éléonore, Émilie and Tania are qualified as artisan herbalists or family herbalists from theLes Âmes Fleurs herbalism school.

Do you give health advice?

No. For legal and ethical reasons, herbalists cannot give advice about your health outside of a consultation. We strongly recommend consulting a herbalist therapist to obtain a general picture, suggestions and appropriate, effective and safe follow-up. You will find a list of accredited herbalist therapists by region on the website of the Herbalists Guild.

OUR ONLINE SHOP

Are your products organic, fair trade and zero waste?

Some products are marked as organic, others are not. In this case, we ensure that we have quality products, free of chemicals. Note that some producers cannot afford to pay for certification.

We encourage the purchase of products from a business that respects workers and, wherever possible, purchasing from local producers. We also avoid purchasing raw materials from countries whose war policies are harmful and inhumane.

We are not zero waste, but we use recyclable and above all reusable containers. We use glass bottles as well as plastic. Glass is not 100% ecological (manufacturing, recycling), it makes packages heavier (more carbon during deliveries) and is brittle (high risk of breakage during deliveries). Our plastic containers are reusable and we have chosen labels that are easy to remove. Our bags are recyclable (you must remove the labels). Compostable bags are unfortunately confused with other types of bags at the sorting center and end up among the waste. Compostable products in waste are very polluting because they emit gases and take forever to compost. Recyclable bags are the most environmentally friendly at the moment, among the different options available. Note that unfortunately there are no real zero waste products, unless you grow and produce everything yourself. Transportation of raw materials, even for solid shampoos (ingredients), requires packaging and transportation.
