An everyday product with repeat-sale potential – Hand and body cream is easy to understand, regularly used and likely to bring satisfied customers back for another bottle.
Fragrance-led body care with a proper identity – Familiar Agnes + Cat scents give the range more character than an ordinary moisturiser and help customers find a fragrance that feels like their own.
A substantial, giftable presentation – The 300ml frosted glass pump bottles look smart on a shelf and have enough presence for gifting without needing elaborate packaging.
Made for the independent trade – These wholesale hand and body creams are produced in small batches in Sheffield, giving retailers a British-made range with a genuine story behind it.
Plant oils add substance to the formula – Sunflower seed oil forms part of the range, accompanied by oils such as apricot kernel, olive, peach kernel, jojoba, avocado or argan depending on the fragrance.
Plenty of natural cross-selling opportunities – Merchandise the creams beside Agnes + Cat soaps, bath products, candles and home fragrance in matching or complementary scents to build a fuller display.
Agnes + Cat began in the Lake District, where the surrounding landscape, changing seasons and countryside scents inspired the first candles and bath products. It was a small northern brand with a clear sense of place - and customers rather liked it.
As demand grew, the original creators partnered with Ancient Wisdom to help produce and promote the range. In 2019, the Sheffield team took over the reins when the Lake District creators moved on to other things. The cosmetics, soaps and reed diffusers have since been made in small batches at the Sheffield production unit. Read David Hardy’s account of the Agnes + Cat story.
The hand and body creams carry that fragrance-first approach into everyday skincare. Each formula includes sunflower seed oil alongside another plant oil selected for the individual variety. Clementine, for example, contains apricot kernel oil, while Sea Salt & Moss contains olive oil and Moroccan Roll uses jojoba oil. The precise ingredient list should always be checked on the individual product page or bottle.
So there is a useful little story for the shop counter: inspired by the Lakes, developed further in Sheffield and still made in small batches in the north of England. Not a bad journey for a bottle of hand cream.
