The good stuff
Organic Coconut Oil
We only use unrefined, raw, organic coconut oil. Like coconuts themselves, coconut oil is rich in essential fats. These fats keep skin healthy and rejuvenated, both internally and externally. Coconut oil is a brilliant moisturiser for all skin types, especially dry skin and is safe for babies and kids making an excellent nappy and skin cream. It also speeds up the healing process of bruises by helping to repair damaged tissue, it penetrates deeply and is nutrient rich. Also amazing to use if your kids have nits!! We adore coconut oil for its therapeutic activity and use it as a base of many of our products.
Organic Beeswax
We only use natural unbleached organic beeswax in our natural sleep aid. Beeswax has a number of benefits for the skin, including an anti-inflammatory action that helps to calm and soothe. It forms a protective barrier on the skin to guard against irritants and lock in moisture. Unlike ingredients made from petroleum, beeswax doesn’t suffocate the skin and won’t clog the pores. It is excellent to use for skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis. I have chosen to use organic unbleached beeswax for its skin healing properties. It’s also antibacterial and soothes tender skin! Bees are amazing and are in great danger around the world. Bees are not harmed during this process of the removal of the wax. We adore and respect our bees!
Organic Carnauba Wax
Carnauba wax is a vegetable wax obtained from the leaves of a Brazilian palm tree (Copernica cerifera) known as the “Tree of Life.” Carnuba Wax is known for its beautiful hydrating properties increasing moisture in the skin as well as naturally protecting it.
Organic Lanolin
Lanolin is a natural and organic substance that is mainly known for its moisturizing effects on the skin. It provides a smooth barrier which protects the skin and is a natural emollient.
Organic Lavender Essential Oil
We are obsessed with organic lavender essential oil. We feature it in almost all of our products because it benefits almost every body system. Lavender essential oil smells divine and is an excellent tonic for the nervous system soothing and relaxing and supporting healthy nervous tissue function. Brilliant for anxiety, migraines, headaches, depression, nervous tension and emotional stress. Lavender is one of the three essential oils which most powerfully stimulate the growth of healthy new cells – Tea Tree and Neroli are the others. Lavender has numerous active constituents but above all, it is primarily the balancing and normalising action of the oil which makes it so beneficially versatile.
Organic Sandalwood Oil
Sandalwood has beautiful benefits in promoting mental clarity and is known for it’s relaxing and calming properties.
Organic Cedarwood Oil
A beautiful warm woody essential oil designed to give comfort known for it’s support of the respiratory and nervous systems.
Wild Crafted Murunga (Kakadu Plum)
This miracle of nature is from the Kimberleys in Western Australia and is a potent, natural wholefood source of Vitamin C and a beautiful emollient designed to soothe the skin.
Magnesium Chloride
Magnesium is an amazing mineral to promote nervous system function. When we are stressed our magnesium levels lower. Magnesium actually increases the serotonin levels in the body to help you achieve calmness. Magnesium is a super important mineral to help you fall asleep and stay asleep.
Homeopathics/ Bach Flower Remedies
Bach Flower Remedies are a safe and natural method of healing discovered by Dr. Bach from 1920 – 1930’s in England. They gently restore the balance between mind and body by casting out negative emotions such as fear, worry, and indecision, which interfere with the equilibrium of the being as a whole. The Bach Flower Remedies allow peace and happiness to return to the sufferer so that the body is free to heal itself.
The Bach Flower Remedies are made from wild flowers and are safe for the whole family including pets and children. There are no known side effects or allergic reactions.
Rock Rose for terror and panic
Cherry Plum for unsettled thoughts
White Chestnut to calm the mind of worrying thoughts.
Love and Hugs
This is without a doubt our most important ingredient in every one of our products, and Sleepy Head Balm natural sleep aid is no exception! Our beautiful Sleepy Head Balm is made lovingly and filled to the brim with love and hugs and designed to promote and enhance the health and wellbeing of your family.

Sleepy head balm is my lifesaver! I use it on my 3yo and have for nearly 2 years now. It settles her so well and is a must have part of our bedtime routine. A must recommend to anyone needing a little help to get off to sleep.

My 10 year old daughter suffers from anxiety that effects her sleep. We pop on the sleepy head balm every night and she happily goes to sleep. I even rub it on my head.
Tara (verified owner) –
Helps to calm the kids down before bed. Makes our night time routine a smooth task.
Manda Keane (verified owner) –
This definitely helps relax our 3yo and us too. I keep sniffing him while we read our bedtime story ha! It’s not the miracle for us that others report but it still makes a difference to how well our son settles before bed. We ran out and we definitely noticed. He was wired!!
Thanks for making such a great product that’s safe for our kids.
