All Trent Apothecary goods are handmade by Claire Wong at home in Newcastle-under-Lyme.   At the beginning Claire's fascination with soaps was purely about the process.  With a love of science and the scientific method Claire was driven to understand as much as possible about the soap making process as possible.

​

This love of the process turned into a love of the product.  The various ways there are to make all manner of items using age old techniques, adding different colours and fragrances, and experimenting with different techniques to produce wonderful unique items.

​

Claire realised she could create fabulous products that were superior to over the counter products that are designed with the minimum ingredients but maximum effectiveness.

 

Trent Apothecary now produces a range of different items that are loved by those that use them and wouldn't return back to commercially created products full of unnecessary additives and preservatives
