UK based planet-conscious brands for your home

Ethically sourced ingredients from an organic wholesaler in Devon.

Planet conscious principles.

About the brand. 

After reacting poorly to a mislabeled line of products the founder of Minzaanî Martina became more vigilant of ingredient lists and how they affected her, sharing her story she learned many people had similar experiences and an idea was born "to create something transparent, accessible and relevant".  
They ethically source all their ingredients from an organic wholesaler in Devon, who source their stock primarily from villages in West Africa and the Caribbean. Over time their philosophy has developed, tying in their East African heritage and belief in giving back - their name accounting for heritage (meaning scale, in Luganda) while initiatives like #GreenFingers (find out more below to save 30% of your next order) ​were created to encourage customers to get involved with recycling and giving back. 
In addition to ethically sourced ingredients, Minzaanî is committed to making an impact and offering insight into areas that aren't typically explored. We aim to invite our customers into the larger discussion of representation, sustainability and transparency in the skin care industry. Whether that's at the beginning or somewhere in the middle of your journey as a conscious shopper, supporting our brand is a decision to shop with the aforementioned principles in mind and an obligation for us to introduce you to more aspects of clean skincare.
