Packaging Design for Smith’s Leather Balm

Packaging Design for Smith’s Leather Balm

About the brand and owners:
We’re Shane and Mandy Smith. We’re the husband and wife team and makers behind Smith’s All Natural. We wanted a safe alternative to the toxic household products we see on shelves in stores. So, we started by making an all natural leather conditioner using only organic cocoa butter.
Today we make a full line of skin care, leather care and grooming products all using organic, plant based ingredients. No toxic chemicals, no animal products, no preservatives. Just organic cocoa butter, beeswax and pure sweet almond oil.

Brand specifications
Our recipe is no secret, we’re proud of it.
Every batch of Smith’s is handmade in Maine from just 3 all-natural ingredients. We start with 100% organic cocoa butter. Organic cocoa butter is not commonly used in leather care due to it’s high cost. It has become one of the most highly sought after ingredients in natural cosmetic supplies and skin conditioners.
Cocoa butter is rich in vitamin E and contains natural antioxidants that help fight the premature aging and deterioration of leather.
Next, we add 100% organic beeswax. Organic beeswax is safer and more effective than other barrier creams like petroleum jelly which contain harmful chemicals that can damage stitching. It acts as a natural waterproofer, sealing the leather and helping protect it from harsh elements. In addition, beeswax functions as a moisturizer, softening stiff, rigid leather.
Finally, we introduce 100% pure sweet almond oil.
Pure sweet almond oil is rich in vitamins A, E and B. It’s a preferred ingredient in natural health and beauty products.
The almond oil we source is 100% sweet, cold pressed and refined. During the refining process the harmful tree nut allergen is extracted so it will not trigger any tree nut allergies. Almond oil has many wonderful health benefits and works to improve the overall look and feel of leather goods. That’s it. No animal fats, synthetic compounds, preservatives or petroleum based products. Just the safest, highest quality natural ingredients. Always.
