My Storie in a nut cell……

So where do I start with this introduction. Firstly, my name is Elmar Kruger, born South African, move abroad to find my dream oversee, I work for 12 years in London in the financial sector and 6 years as a farmer on my small but amazing beautiful farm in Lapland Sweden where I start to study en read more about organic soaps and shampoo’s and other beauty products, our winters are very long and cold in Lapland, so I have plenty time for reading, when you start to read of all the chemicals that they put in to our soaps and shampoo’s, you just wonder why? The soap making start with my first farm animals on the farm, yes, goats, I start to read about all the benefits of goat milk and if you can make soap of it, after the first soap was made and ready to use, and when you start to feel the difference afterwards, then you realise you can sell this product, the beauty products that was made on the farm was a success in Sweden where I live but I am an African boy, missing my people and my roots, so I am back, bringing my knowledge back and making soap and shampoo and other products for the future, My inspiration and hero was my grandfather, a very kind and down to earth man, and a farmer, so for my hero, I name my company’s Schoongezight and Schoongezight was also the name of my grandparents farm, Schoongezight, a Dutch name have two meanings in English, first meaning Clean Face, and this side is where the soap and shampoo is part of, and the other meaning, Beautiful view, this part will be for the future, and more about that later. So let’s go back to the soap making, all the products I use, is organic, and most are local, and yes, just outside Wellington in the Western Cape, is a Water Buffalo farm, the goat milk, also a farm outside Wellington, Aloe Vera just a few meters from my house, Almond milk from a local organic Shop. I believe we should look at our bodies and what you put in and on it, my moto is, If I don’t want to use it, why should I make it, so I hope you enjoy my products and let me know what you think, the good and the bad,
