All our products are manufactured and packaged by us at our facility on our family farm in Saint-Polycarpe, Quebec, Canada.

We recommend using your products within 6-12 months, keeping them out of direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Our products are stable but not indestructible; for instance, leaving them in a hot or freezing car is not the best thing for them. The products will not spoil however over time the oils can oxidize which can affect the scent.

Our line of products are completely natural and contain no harsh or irritating ingredients, such as sulphates (the leading cause of contact dermatitis) and synthetic fragrances that are found in traditional skin care products. We also keep essential oil concentrations below 1% for most of our products. This makes them ideal for individuals with sensitive skin. If you have sensitive skin, we recommend purchasing a sample of the product before committing to the full size, and we recommend performing a patch test before trying a new product. We regularly receive feedback that our products have been helpful for skin conditions and sensitive skin. Please see our testimonials for further information.

At Smith Farms we create products using ingredients that are found in nature, e.g. butter from the karite (shea) nut, rosewater from rose petals, juice from the aloe vera plant and oil from almonds. Sometimes our ingredients are not naturally occurring in nature, but in these cases we make sure they are naturally derived, using organic principles. A good example of this is our emulsifier called Sugarmulse, which is cetearyl alcohol and cetearyl glucoside and is derived from plant sugars.

While many of the ingredients we use are organic, our products are not certified organic.

Many are, however some of our products contain beeswax and our goat’s milk soap contains, of course, goat’s milk. 

Our Gentle Foaming Facial Cleanser and Ultra Restorative Night Cream are not gluten-free as they contain colloidal oats. All our other products are gluten-free but not certified gluten-free. This means, while we don’t expose our gluten-free products to gluten, we can’t guarantee that our facility is 100% free of gluten.

We do not use synthetic fragrances in our line, however we do add low concentrations of essential oils to some. All our products are very lightly scented. 

Never! We reserve the privilege for all our friends and family. :) The cats, dogs and horses just get hugs and food.

Because our products are natural and contain none of the harsh or irritating ingredients found in most traditional products, including baby products, we encourage you to use them on your children or newborn. Our Gentle Foaming Facial Cleanser is non-stinging to eyes and therefor makes a great moisturizing baby wash.

We always recommend consulting your health care provider about any products used during pregancy and nursing to make sure they do not have any concerns .

Yes! We offer most of our products in conveninent sample sizes. Perfect for trying before you buy or as a mini travel sized versions! Find can find them all here. 

We very proudly use a preservative system created by a company here in Quebec. It is called Biosecur, and it is derived from citrus fruit. It is an organic preservative and disinfectant that replaces parabens and quaternary ammonium compounds in products. Find it on our labels under it’s INCI name: “Citrus medica limonum”. It is both USDA and Ecocert certified organic. Visit their website for more information.

Cetearyl alcohol is not really an alcohol (such as rubbing alcohol) which would definitely dry the skin. It is an emulsifying wax, made by combining fatty alcohols from vegetable sources. Emulsifiers are what we use to keep the oil and water components bound together as a smooth lotion. The one we’ve chosen to use is called Sugarmulse and is derived from plant sugars. The INCI name for Sugarmulse is Cetearyl alcohol and Cetearyl glucoside. For more information on Sugarmulse, visit the Herbarie website.

Ingredient lists must conform to the INCI standards of identification. See below for INCI explanation.

The International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients, abbreviated INCI, was established to ensure that cosmetic ingredients are consistently listed using the same ingredient name from product to product. Using consistent ingredient names on product labels allows consumers the ability to easily compare the ingredients between multiple products.

A great resource that anyone can use is the Skin Deep cosmetic safety database. We use this database ourselves for every ingredient we use.

We try to source as much as we can locally, but unfortunately in the case of our raw materials, the bulk of them come from other parts of the world. We use a lot of nut butters and oils (shea, cocoa, almond, jojoba) which don’t grow in our Canadian climate. What we can get locally (beeswax, honey and goat's milk), we do. As for our packaging, we get our aluminum tubes that we use for hand lotion from a company in Hawkesbury, Ontario. All our print materials and labels are done by Montreal printers.

We ship to Canada, the U.S. and Internationally.

We prioritize packaging that is made from recycled materials, is recyclable or biodegradable. We like to use aluminum as it is infinitely recyclable. Glass is another favourite of ours.  Any plastic we use is easily recyclable. We make sure our labels are made of the same material (polypropelene) so that it can be easily recycled once at the facility. 

We ship our orders in cardboard boxes, which are made up of partially recycled content and are recyclable. To pack the products and keep them protected, we use brown kraft paper which is made using 40% post-consumer recycled content. We also reuse packaging from shipments we've received whenever possible. 

Unfortunately, we cannot take back used containers at this time, however most of our products are available in bulk as refill packs and can be refilled.
