Are Woodspirits products “cruelty free”?
This issue remains politically charged and is also used to sell products that may or may not be free of cruelty. As an herbalist Barbara Bobo believes that plants are living things and that to take their lives for any purpose would be construed as cruel if you feel that animals are harvested cruelly as well. We do not use animal products that result in the death of that animal for the primary use in the product, we do not however use this in our advertising. The lanolin in the Lamb Cakes is a product of wool processing and is washed out of the wool fibers before weaving. The beeswax in our candles is produced by bees but does not incur their death. Our powder puffs are made from the pelts of sheep that have been slaughtered for human consumption. If you are philosophically opposed to these products we understand your concern and list them here for clarity.
