Lifestyle & Homeware Brands at Forest

We carefully select lifestyle and homeware brands that follow ethical processes, use natural ingredients, and advocate for sustainability. We look for artisanal items that are tastefully made, designed to last, and made from natural materials. 

These ethical brands claim a connection to the natural world, either through the formulation of their products, or through locally operated supply chains. They understand the importance of making a minimal impact on the environment. And like our ethos at Forest, these products will bring you closer to nature.

Great care is taken to select products that embody our values, but we also enjoy discovering new products that our community will love. You will find a varied selection of products from these conscious brands ranging from candles and tableware, to handmade plant pots, and luxury skincare.

Here you can discover more about the beautiful brands that we stock and we hope our customers will enjoy visiting our shops seeking something unique, handmade, and carefully crafted.

 

Nkuku – B Corp Certified

 

 

Nkuku is an ethical lifestyle brand that sources a selection of unique furniture, homeware, and interiors found from craftsmen all around the world. They pride themselves on bringing natural, handmade products to a broad audience backed by an ethos that promotes sustainable living.

Their products are brimming with rustic charm, and finished with a contemporary touch. Every product has a story and they pride themselves in sharing the origins of each product and the skilled craftspeople making each piece by hand. Their belief is that every item in the home should be well-made and hold integrity.

Community is also at the heart of Nkuku, and they support local makers from Vietnam, China, and further afield. They do not believe in mass-produced products or fast trends, instead favouring the process of ‘slow-making’ and homeware that is designed to last. 

Nkuku is synonymous with our values, primarily working with natural, recycled, and reclaimed materials.

 

Aesop – B Corp Certified

 

 

Aesop is one of the original advocates of skincare created from plant-based ingredients. Each formulation smells beautiful and feels amazing on the skin, further set apart by distinctive packaging that conveys their minimal approach to natural skincare. High quality balms, washes, and scrubs are the result of years of meticulous experimentation through advanced technology, balanced by the vast world of potent botanicals.

Aesop products work by balancing consistency with desirability, and by finding the perfect balance between nature and science, they have achieved the creation of luxury formulas that are lusted after by many beauty lovers all over the world.

Their rich emollients are widely recognised as the go-to for hard-working hands. We stock on of their most popular formulations Resurrection Duet, showcasing the definitive woody, herbaceous and citrus notes that are synonymous with Aesop.

This combination dream-team is the perfect revival. Firstly, there is the cleansing gel, which has a lightweight texture and is fast absorbing, leaving no greasy film. A rich balm accompanies the gel, which, when applied with a generous pump leaves hands feeling nourished, soft, and restored.

 

Kushboo – 100% natural soaps and skincare

 

Kushboo is a family-run soap and skincare brand, originally created by Sarwat Jaleel. She uses 100% natural ingredients, drawing inspiration from her Indian heritage and her family’s practice of cooking with organic ingredients.

The result is a beautiful range of handmade soaps, shampoos, and body creams that hold a uniquely fine fragrance, ranging from heady scents of cedarwood through to patchouli. Kushboo sources ingredients locally from the Ribble Valley, reducing environmental impact wherever possible. Each soap is handmade with care and every ingredient used is selected carefully and in a way that is respectful to nature.

The depth of the natural fragrance supports feeling of calm and rejuvenation. Our favourite soap scent is Cedarwood, Lemongrass and Calendula. We also love the shower oil, which can be enjoyed in 'calming' or 'uplifting' scents.

All of their products are 100% natural and vegan.

 

Bon Parfumeur Paris

 

Bon Parfumeur is a Paris-based artisanal perfume brand. Each bottle of luxury perfume is entirely made in France from the scent down to the packaging. They specialise in small batch ‘short circuit’ production, meaning all manufacturing is fulfilled locally, which results in a cyclical production process that delivers very low environmental impact.

They are seasoned purveyors of fine perfume, using only the highest quality natural ingredients, with no chemical additions that can affect the purity of the delicate fragrance. Their perfumes are also unisex, so they are perfect for gifting.

We love #002 Neroli, Jasmine and White Amber, delivering sweet, heady notes of orange blossom and comforting base notes of musk, producing a perfume filled with uplifting scents that are perfect for the summer months.

 

L:A Bruket

 

Bringing the Swedish philosophy of wholesome living to the UK, L:A Bruket stands out for their holistic approach to skincare. They create a range of natural treatments for face, body, and hair, that sit between function and luxury. They take inspiration from the Swedish nature that surrounds them by embracing the raw beauty of the elements.

By staying committed to the creation of quality products, they never compromise on the efficacy of their ingredients. We love their scented candles, with each one bringing the harmonious scents of nature indoors.

These natural, organic products are intended to fair harsh weather conditions and keep skin smooth, soft and supple.

We have a selection of products from our favourite brands online but we also encourage you to visit our shops where you can test the skincare products. We love chatting about these nature-inspired brands and they are perfect for gifting - or a treat to self!
