| NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 |
| 1. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Accounting convention |
| These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" ("FRS 102") and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime. The disclosure requirements of section 1A of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosure is required to show a true and fair view. |
| The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below. |
| Going concern |
| During the year ended 31 December 2024, the company made a loss after tax of £561,501 (2023: £493,524), at the balance sheet date the company had net current liabilities of £604,468 (2023: £68,320) and net liabilities of £513,435 (2023: net assets £48,180). |
| The company continues to meet its day to day working capital requirements through loans from Natura Bisse International S.A. of £1,036,733 (2023: £654,761) which the holding company has confirmed will continue to be made available. Accordingly, the directors consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis and they do not include any adjustments that would result from a withdrawal of support. |
| Turnover |
| Turnover is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, and is shown net of VAT and other sales related taxes. The fair value of consideration takes into account trade discounts, settlement discounts and volume rebates. |
| Turnover arising from the sale of cosmetic products is recognised when the significant risk and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer (upon delivery), the amounts of revenue can be measured reliably, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably. |
| Turnover arising from commissions is recognised on delivery of the goods on sale of which commission is due. |
| Turnover arising from the sale of services in the form of spa treatments is recognised on the day the treatment takes place. |
| Cost of sales are recognised in the same period as the related revenue. |
| Intangible assets other than goodwill |
| Intangible assets acquired separately from a business are recognised at cost and are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. |
| Amortisation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases: |
| Software 3-10 years |
| Website 3-6 years |

| Tangible fixed assets |
| Plant and machinery | - |

| Computer equipment | - |
| Impairment of fixed assets |
| At each reporting period end date, the company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). |
| Stocks |
| Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. |
| At each reporting date, an assessment is made for impairment. Any excess of the carrying amount of stocks over its estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell is recognised as an impairment loss in profit or loss. Reversals of impairment losses are also recognised in profit or loss. |
| Taxation |
| The tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable. |
| Current tax |
| The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the profit and loss account because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The company's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting end date. |
| Cash and cash equivalents |
| Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities. |

| Employee benefits |
| The costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense, unless those costs are required to be recognised as part of the cost of stock or fixed assets. |
| The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received. |
| Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the company is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits. |
| Retirement benefits |
| Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due. |
| Leases |
| Rentals payable under operating leases, including any lease incentives received, are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease except where another more systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leases asset are consumed. |
| Foreign exchange |
| Transactions in currencies other than pounds sterling are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At each reporting end date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the reporting end date. Gains and losses arising on translation in the period are included in profit or loss. |
