Price increases on raw materials

As many of you may be aware, these last few weeks have seen protest and rioting in many developing countries as millions are affected by rising food prices. Increased energy and fuel prices, competition amongst biofuel producers and crop failures with the resulting food shortages have resulted in the marked increase of special vegetable oils. Because of the competition from the biofuel sector, oils like sunflower and thistle oil used for food have seen stock market increases of 30-40%.

India and China are ‘vacuuming’ the world, not only for metals but also for vegetable oils and are buying up entire export crops from whole countries. Some vegetable oils may be difficult to get because of this. Sunflower Oil and Organic Thistle (Safflower) Oil has increased in cost by 10%.

Our raw material supplier have contacted us and advised they are going to have to increase most of the ingredients by 10%

It is inevitable we will have to increase the prices of our products in due course, we will keep them at the current prices for as long as we can, however we felt by informing you of the price increases in advance you can stock up with your favourite products.

Due to the continuing droughts around the world, citrus essential oils will increase in price in the near future. There also only very small supplies left of Roman Chamomile (doubling the market price), Hyssop (price doubled), Bergamot, Palmarosa, Patchouli and Ylang Ylang. As the supplies become even shorter, these prices will increase. Tea Tree Oil has almost doubled in price due the fact that so many farmers have stopped farming it, some of our essential oil prices will increase due to the global factors mentioned. The price of vegetable-based Glycerine will increase much more than 10% in the near future. Vegetable-based Glycerine has remained more or less the same price for 10 years but now it has increased radically in the last few months.

In many ways we are more blessed than the poor people in Bangladesh are and other developing countries where already poor people have to cope with the doubling and even quadrupling of their most stable food, rice.

Just a few of our customer's Testimonials for the new 'Testimonials' page:

 

 

"Having been a hairdresser for over forty years and owning my own shops for over twenty, I am only sorry to be out of the trade now, because the "Elixirs of Life" Shampoo for Dry Hair is the best product I have used, it leaves the hair shiny and full of body.  It might cost a little more but you save all of that because you do not need other products to put back what commercial shampoo's take out, i.e Conditioner and Antioxy products to stop colour fade, free from synthetic additives.  It's a pure product and a pure joy to use not to mention the smell, fab:-  Thank you"

A.Roles - Kent

 

"For a long time I have been looking for a range of natural products for my skin, without the adverse effects of the chemicals in many mass-produced products.  I was delighted to find this in the "Elixirs of Life" range & at an affordable cost.  My skin looks radiant & healthy."

M.Morton - Saffron Walden

 

"I am very conscious about what I put into my and my families bodies, always using organic food and produce and awareness of the environment so keeping "food miles" down to a minimum.  I was delighted when I found you at my local farmers market!  Seeing that around 40% of what we put onto our skin is absorbed into our body I wanted to find a supplier who would have the same ethos's as I do when caring for my family.  I bought the lip balm for my super skin sensitive red headed 6 year old daughter who has told me frankly - Mummy I Love it!

 So needless to say I will looking forward to next month and seeing you again ready with an order! I know you said that I could pre-order the items and would bring them with you - so I shall be adding your site to my favourites - I'm converted!

 

Thank you once again x"
