Pestle & Mortar

The award-winning label is based in Kildare, southwest of Dublin. But its roots are in India. In the family of co-founder Sonia Deasy, the profession of medicine man has a long tradition. With mortar and pestle - which gave the Irish line its name - herbal medicines are still produced today, in the 6th generation. With this spirit, Sonia developed a series with selected formulas and a clear philosophy: all products must be uncomplicated and compatible for every skin type, free of chemicals and skin-hazardous ingredients.
