Welcome to our world
We're a small brand from Inverness - the heart of the Scottish Highlands. We create with simplicity at heart. What we make is designed to support everyday rituals - calm, tactile, and quietly joyful. Each formula is thoughtfully composed, with gentle ingredients and a focus on balance. Nothing more than needed. Nothing less than meaningful.
Kinga
I began making candles and soaps because the process helped me feel calm. Within Lotamou, I craft objects to slow things down and make space for stillness. Nature and light guide me — in scent, form, and every small detail. My love for photography helps me bring it all together — blending candle-making, soapcraft, and visual storytelling into one evolving, beautiful journey.
Marek
I take care of the business side of Lotamou, and I support Kinga in her work so she can focus fully on creating. I believe in simple, natural things - the kind that don’t need much noise to make an impact. My greatest passion is climbing - it brings me as close to nature as I can get, and it’s where I find my inspiration.
Chalky
I’m the four-legged heart of our studio. I keep watch over every soap batch, nap under the desk during long creative sessions, and occasionally sneak a sniff of lavender. My humans say I bring balance to the chaos and charm to the quiet. I take my role seriously: daily walks, garden patrols, and making sure every package leaves with a little extra love.
