Sodashi Information

Who formulates the Sodashi products?

Sodashi’s Founder,Megan Larsen formulates all Sodashi products drawing on her unique knowledge of aromatherapy, Ayurveda, biochemistry and naturopathy.

Are Sodashi products natural?

Yes, Sodashi products are 100% natural. We create luxurious and effective skincare by blending the purest natural ingredients with love and intention, to deliver pure nourishment for beautiful skin.

Every single one of our products is free of synthetic ingredients including parabens, petrochemicals, GMOs, sulfates, synthetic preservatives and dyes, phthalates and triclosan.

What does ‘hand crafted’ mean to Sodashi?

Sodashi has a small-batch approach to beauty; our artisanal product is lovingly crafted on our own premises and each batch is a one-off production.

There is no compromise on the ingredients; we guarantee what goes in and importantly what stays out.

Are Sodashi products ever tested on animals?

No Sodashi products are ever tested on animals, ever. Sodashi operates in a sustainable and ethical manner at all levels of the business. We refuse to test on animals and do not enter markets that require animal testing.

Are Sodashi products manufactured in Australia?

Sodashi products are proudly manufactured in our very own facility in Fremantle, Western Australia.

Ingredient Information

Do Sodashi products contain vitamins and minerals?

We believe that creating skincare in its most natural state is the finest nourishment for beautiful skin, intact with all of the vitamins and minerals and other nutrients.

With this in mind, our products are created by blending the purest therapeutic grade natural ingredients. For example, we use cold pressed botanicals to formulate our products, to preserve the nutrients and enzymes and ensure the maximum nutritional content of the end product.

I would like to try Sodashi but am not ready to buy. Can I order a sample to try?

Due to the nature of our raw ingredients and our manufacturing process, we do not give out samples. However, if you’re worried about your sensitive skin, we offer a great refund policy – please see the specifics of this policy here.

If you’d like to try a product on your skin, please feel free to visit one of our Spa’s (please feel free to get in touch to find your closest Spa).

How are Sodashi products preserved and what is their shelf life?

Sodashi uses natural preservatives Grapefruit Seed Extract, Benzyl Alcohol and Olive Leaf Extract giving the product a shelf life of two years. We recommend that products are used within six months of opening.

I’ve read that Grapefruit Seed Extract often contains a chemical preservative benzalkonium chloride, is that what Sodashi uses?

We are aware of the concerns that some have around Grapefruit Seed Extract, and we’re actually working towards removing it from our products because of this. That said, we are happy to state that the Grapefruit Seed Extract that we use contains no chemical preservatives at all and we have a Certificate of Analysis to confirm this.

Do Sodashi products contain any artificial fragrances?

Every single one of our products is free of all synthetic ingredients, including synthetic fragrances.

Sodashi will delight your senses, the formulas smell light, clean and botanical because they are formulated using the purest botanical extracts. The subtle natural aromas and delicate textures make them irresistible to touch and smell.

Are Sodashi's ingredients sustainably sourced?

Sodashi works in partnership with suppliers around the world to procure the finest therapeutic grade, ethically-sourced essential oils and plant actives, organic where possible, to formulate Sodashi products.

For example, Sodashi’s supplier of Ylang Ylang oil has worked with a group of local farmers in a remote region of Madagascar to build a local distillery where they process the essential oil, providing a sustainable way living to the local farmers and an exceptionally high-quality end product.

Why aren’t all Sodashi’s natural ingredients organic?

We source the finest therapeutic grade natural ingredients, organic where possible, to formulate Sodashi products.

Our essential oils for example, have to be of the highest quality to have the cell regenerative properties required to create effective anti-ageing skincare. We know our natural ingredients intimately, we know their characteristics and properties, and we know how to enhance their benefits by blending the ingredients in our formulas to create powerful synergies.

There are ingredients that are really important for us to use to ensure the efficacy of our products which are not yet available organically at the quality we require. We have made the decision not to compromise the integrity of our products by replacing these ingredients with lesser quality organic ingredients.

Fortunately, more and more organic ingredients are becoming available at the quality required for the manufacturing of Sodashi products, therefore, the percentage of organic ingredients in our products continues to increase.

What is the shelf life of Sodashi products?

Sodashi products have a shelf life of two years. We recommend you use your Sodashi products within six months of opening, to use them at their freshest for best results.

Do Sodashi products contain animal derived ingredients? Are they suitable for vegans?

Sodashi products are entirely free of animal products and are therefore suitable for vegetarians and vegans. We are animal advocates, and in no way support animal testing of any kind.

Are Sodashi products gluten free?

Yes, all Sodashi products are gluten free and contain no gluten ingredients.

Brightening Face Drops, Cell Renewal Drops, Eye Lifting Gel, Recovery Skin Boost, Calming Skin Boost, Balancing Skin Boost, Skin Restore, Blemish Treatment, Body Balance Salt Therapy Exfoliant and Jojoba Bead Body Polish.

Should I keep my Sodashi products in the fridge?

If you live somewhere where the temperatures often exceed 30 degrees, and your home gets hot you can keep your Sodashi products in the fridge.  It won’t impact on the efficacy of your products at all, but it may change their consistency. The face mists are wonderfully refreshing if kept cool! Otherwise we recommend keeping your Sodashi products in a cool place away from direct sunlight.

The colour and aroma of my regular Sodashi products sometimes varies. Why is this?

The colour and aroma of your regular Sodashi products may vary. This is because no two production batches are exactly the same as each natural ingredient differs slightly depending on the time of harvest; the soil, the climatic conditions, the air quality, all have an effect.

We celebrate these differences because they demonstrate our commitment to blending only the purest unadulterated natural ingredients to create our skincare products.

I still have so many questions to ask / feedback to give. What do I do?

We love nothing more than hearing from our wonderful customers. If you have any questions, thoughts or feedback please send us a message here.  and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can.
