My Calming Blend won the Fragrance & Wellness Award at the 2025 Nourish Beauty & Skincare Awards, achieving the maximum star rating.
The Nourish Awards are highly respected, celebrating natural and ethical products created with genuine care. For my Calming Blend to win this category is a very proud moment, as it was created to bring a sense of calm and balance into everyday life.
🏆 Aromatherapy Trade Council (ATC) Brand Membership Here

ATC membership is a mark of trust. It shows that my blends meet the strictest standards for safety, purity, labelling, and ethical practice.

🏆 GHP Best Vegan Aromatherapy Brand 2024 – Northern England
Mai Joie Botanicals was awarded Best Vegan Aromatherapy Brand 2024 – Northern England by GHP Magazine.
This award celebrates the very heart of my brand — creating aromatherapy that is pure, ethical, vegan friendly, and cruelty free. To be named the best in my region is something I am deeply proud of, as it reflects both my values and my belief in the power of essential oils to support wellbeing naturally.
🏆 Vegan Beauty Awards – Brand Award
Mai Joie Botanicals won a Vegan Beauty Award, celebrating my whole brand for being 100% vegan and cruelty free.
Here’s what Louise Jane, CEO of The Vegan Beauty Awards, said about Mai Joie Botanicals:
“It’s so refreshing to come across a brand like Mai Joie, whose products go beyond providing fast solutions but also give a gentle nudge to slow down and take care of ourselves. They recognise that beauty is more than skin deep and that our health plays a vital role in how we look and feel.
What makes them truly special is their diverse range of oil blends that cater to your different needs throughout the day. Whether you want to focus, unwind, or get a good night’s sleep, they have the perfect blend to align your mind and body. These blends not only smell amazing but also create opportunities for tranquillity and positive mental shifts.
And, I can’t even express enough how much I adore and value their collection of bath salts. It’s evident that the founder is highly knowledgeable and experienced in their field, as these salts not only smell incredible but also contain high-quality blends of magical ingredients that work miracles.”
To have my whole brand win this award means the world to me.
