At a glance:
Our panel of mum testers loved the fact that this set came with natural products and was elegantly presented in a re-usable see-through bag. The quality of the product was praised, especially because not much was needed for one application for it to be effective. The price point is high for everyday use, but this would make a beautiful gift set.
What they say:
“Neatly packed into a practical and high-quality travel wash bag that’s perfect for mothers on the go, our Little Traveller is the ideal introduction to the Storksak Organics range; a beautiful collection of natural, organic bath and skincare products proudly made in England. Our natural and delicate signature scent has been specially designed to pamper your baby. Formulated by the fragrance experts of Grasse, it combines subtle notes of English pear, chamomile extract and honey inspired by the gentle tranquility of the countryside. We use only the finest natural and organic ingredients made with baby’s delicate skin in mind.”

Would you recommend this to other mums?
I would recommend Storksak as the quality of the products is great, I think they are very generous amounts for travel, so would fit into a bag easily and would last. I also think that the bag is helpful if you need to carry wet items as it zips and keeps everything inside contained. I also would recommend this as a gift for new parents, it's different and would be useful and luxurious for the babies to use.
How did this product make your life easier?
This product is great, especially as a gift or for travel. The size of the items inside the bag are a lot bigger than I thought from looking at the image online, they are brilliant to be able to take for travelling and the handy wipes are useful for cleaning hands (both for baby and mum). The scents and texture of all of the shampoos, lotions and balms are lovely and are even better for baby’s skin as they are organic.
Would you choose this product to win?
I think this product stands out as the ingredients are organic and there aren't too many ingredients involved. Baby skin is very sensitive and I think most parents want to use the most natural products possible. The packaging is very high-end and you feel as if you can keep the bag after you've used the products. I also am very impressed with the size of the products, they would last for a long time and I feel that this product is good value for money.
What changes would you make to this product?
I wouldn't change anything about the Little Traveller Set – it is packaged in a very subtle way; the actual products are really lovely and either as a travel set or as a gift it delivers what you need. The number of products and the quality of the bag make you feel happy with spending money on this item, it's definitely a lot bigger than it looks online and as a gift it appears to be worth more than you have paid.
Tested by mum Josie Lockwood for the Mother & Baby awards 2018:
Would you recommend this to other mums?
I love the quality of the products and they seem to lather and sink in well to my baby's skin without being greasy. The set was well packaged with a simple yet tasteful design and came with some supporting notes about the brand and the ingredients of the products which was a nice touch as it felt like you were getting the full experience. I also really like that the products use 100% natural ingredients and don't contain any perfume or alcohol.
How did this product make your life easier?
This travel set is really compact with everything you need for bathing and moisturising your little one. It's easy to pack in your bag and the carry case makes it easily transportable without taking up too much room. The products are lightly fragranced, yet natural and organic, which gives me peace of mind and confidence that they are suitable to apply to my baby's sensitive skin.
Would you choose this product to win?
The quality stood out to me as being a higher end product. Initially the price seems quite expensive but you are getting four different products, so it's not too bad value for money. I would consider buying this as a new born baby gift or to take on holiday, but I probably wouldn't splash out on this set on a frequent basis as other brands are equally as effective and cost much less.
What changes would you make to this product?
I would probably change the carrycase to be more bespoke to the brand and make it slightly more expensive looking, as you could probably get a similar one for a few pounds. I think it lets the brand down – it could have a few interior pockets or a separate zip compartment so you could use it after the products have run out.
Tested by mum Beth Duncan for the Mother & Baby awards 2018:
Would you recommend this to other mums?
I would 100% recommend to a friend or even buy one for an expectant mum to be. It's a lovely gift to take to a baby shower or to give when the baby has been born. It comes in a lovely little zip bag to keep the products together; the creams are lovely to use on baby's skin and the hand and face wipes are ideal to keep in the baby bag for when you are out and about.
How did this product make your life easier?
I've been using the Storksak organic range for a week now on my five-month-old baby and have found the products lovely to use. They are soft on babies’ skin and smell lovely too. I've also used it on my four-year-old who suffers with bobbly skin. I don't think that the product could be made any better as it's great value for money and the presentation is lovely.
Would you choose this product to win?
I think this product should win as it comes beautifully presented in a zip clear bag with a gift tag. The creams and wipes are in nice bottles or wrap. I think it's also great value for money and looks more expensive than it actually is. The creams are gentle on babies’ skin and smell nice and fresh. This would be absolutely great to give at a baby shower.
What changes would you make to this product?
I really do not feel you could make this product any better. The cost of the product is what appeals to me as it looks a lot more expensive than it actually is. You get a baby wash, baby lotion, baby balm and hand and face wipes in the gift bag and they all smell great and are not tiny tubes. An absolutely excellent product.
Tested by mum Katrina Daniels for the Mother & Baby awards 2018:
Would you recommend this to other mums?
I would certainly recommend this product to family members with babies and small children as I also used this product on my four-year-old and it has left both hers and my baby’s skin lovely and soft. It smells lovely, is gentle on skin and comes well presented in a lovely bag.
How did this product make your life easier?
Life is easier, especially if you’re travelling, as the products come in small bottles so you can take them swimming without them weighing down your bag. My baby’s skin is itch free and the bottle is nice and easy to open when bathing baby alone.
Would you choose this product to win?
I would maybe buy these products as they are really nice and the presentation is very lovely, but I’d also use the other brands as well as some are better if you haven’t got the money for Storksak.
What changes would you make to this product?
There is not really much I would change with the product as everything is great about it. The design on the bottles is visible through a clear wash bag, so you can see what the product looks like. The only thing I would maybe change is the price as its quite expensive especially for a first-time mum.
Tested by mum Sian Milton for the Mother & Baby awards 2018:
Would you recommend this to other mums?
Keeping in mind that every child is different and also every skin type is different, which means it could work for one but not the other, this does not change the fact that I would recommend it till I'm blue in the face. Both of my youngest children haven't had a reaction after using it and the skin is soft enough to eat!
How did this product make your life easier?
With my baby having sensitive skin since birth I thought this would be a godsend to try and see actually if natural products work as well as what they say, especially since this wasn't a product that I had seen online or in stores. With this in mind I also was able to try it on my six-year-old who has many allergies and skin conditions.
Would you choose this product to win?
I certainly would pick this product over any. Using a natural product has got to be better than using chemicals on such sensitive gentle skin. The more natural products that come on the market, the more chance us parents have of choosing something gentle and nourishing for our babies!
What changes would you make to this product?
The only thing I would change is maybe the price. Even though this product is amazing and works wonders, money isn't always available to spend £20 each time on a product that doesn't last that long.
