OUR STORY

Hello and thank you for being here …

The Aromatherapy Lifestyle has been borne out of pure passion and inspiration from nature to achieve 100% natural, innovative blends in the creation of simply beautiful products, encapsulating the power and therapeutic benefits of pure essential oils.

We have always been clear about our brand ethics which are to offer a high-quality product range, wholly made in the UK, using 100% natural, ethically sourced ingredients which are organic wherever possible and are suitable for nut allergy sufferers and vegans. Each of our products have a CPSR or Cosmetic Product Safety Report.

Being nut-free has been a vital element of our business as our Founder’s daughter has a severe nut allergy and so the unique creation of a nut-free, 100% natural Aromatherapy product range was number one on the wish list when starting out.

We have also created waterless product formulations, taking an eco-friendly approach in reducing our water footprint and eliminating the need for preservatives. This also means the products are more concentrated, last longer and go further.

All our products have the exclusive provenance of being designed by Mandy, our Founder. She is a qualified Clinical Aromatherapist and is a member of IFPA (International Federation of Professional Aromatherapists), so each product has been carefully and expertly created to provide the optimum benefits whilst synergising the most amazing aromas.

Blended and handmade in the UK in small batches, we ensure that the ingredients are as fresh as possible, allowing us to use what nature has gifted to us to promote positive effects on the physical and emotional wellbeing whilst being kind not only to the body and mind but to the planet as well.

We hope you love our products as much as we do! x

Hi, I’m Mandy

The Aromatherapy Lifestyle
Mandy Giles MIFPA

Besides being the Founder of The Aromatherapy Lifestyle, I am a proud mother of a beautiful daughter, a fully qualified Clinical Aromatherapist (IFPA) and hold ITEC Level 3 Diplomas in Anatomy & Physiology, Massage and Aromatherapy.

I am grateful and inspired to be working in the Aromatherapy space, something I have been so passionate about for such a long time but could never quite reach for one reason or another… but my dream has finally become a reality!

I have spent almost all my working life in the travel world, owning a multi-award-winning travel business. In amongst the stress of busy corporate life, I always had a keen interest in Worldwide Destination Spas and Wellness Resorts, appreciating the benefits and importance of relaxation and wellness against the natural backdrop of stunningly beautiful, serene and soul healing surroundings with amazing aromas spilling into the air and wanting to share this with others.

In the rare spare time I had whilst running a business and raising a child at the time, I qualified as an ITEC Aromatherapist but never had the time to pursue this beyond making blends at home and for the office because the travel business was so demanding.

As life unexpectedly changed for me on a personal level and I also sold the travel business, I found myself re-evaluating my future path, revisiting and delving deeper into my other great love in life besides travel … Aromatherapy.

I studied long and hard and qualified as a Clinical Aromatherapist to IFPA standard (International Federation of Clinical Aromatherapists) and achieved further qualification with a Beauty Brand Business Management Diploma, thereafter founding my own business once again... The Aromatherapy Lifestyle was born and I think I am exactly where I am meant to be.

As my daughter has a severe nut allergy and this is such a big part of our personal life story, it has been vitally important for me to produce natural products that are nut-free. It has always been a challenge, whether it be in food, beauty or hair products, to easily find nut-free recipes and formulations and we have both spent many hours over the years deciphering long lists of ingredients or simply having to avoid things all together.

In driving my passion forward and using my expert knowledge in Aromatherapy, I would love to encourage an Aromatherapy lifestyle for all, instilling a natural, holistic and pure approach to the everyday, allowing us to re-connect with nature and feel her around us, working her magic!

Sending Aroma Love
