What is your business about, tell us when did it start and what products or services do you offer?
Justine Le Guil is a small business based in Dublin and offers handcrafted & natural soaps, shampoo bars and skincare accessories made out of organic cotton. The business was launched in 2018 with the opening of the Etsy store. We now mainly trade from our e-store.
How are you guys dealing with the pandemic situation?
It is quite challenging of course but as we offer our products online, we haven’t closed a single day and continued receiving and shipping orders.
Who are your costumers?
Anyone who is looking for natural, vegan, cruelty-free and / or plastic-free cosmetics. Some of our customers are not necessarily vegan but want to take care of their skin and hair with no harsh ingredients.
How do you see the vegan community in Ireland?
People are getting more aware about animal welfare & the environment. Most people in Ireland are curious and not afraid at all about the vegan lifestyle. The vegan community is definitely growing in Ireland and it is great to see vegan products offered almost everywhere. I was vegetarian for many years and thought it might be difficult to become vegan, especially when eating out. On the contrary, tasty vegan food is now widely available, even in relatively small towns.
