Detoxing Your Makeup Bag
June 24th, 2021
When we use skincare and beauty products, our intention is to care for our skin so we look and feel good. But when using conventional beauty products, this can mean applying around 168 chemicals to your body each day, including ingredients with known health risks, from skin and eye irritants to neurotoxins, endocrine disrupters and possible carcinogens.*
We believe natural products are the perfect start to lessening this potentially toxic load. And this doesn’t just mean skincare, but cosmetics as well. Our range of natural cosmetics is formulated with active botanical ingredients to work with your skin, providing beautiful colour and no nasties. There’s no need to compromise on quality. When looking for ways to detox your beauty bag, here’s where to start.
Tinted Moisturiser
Made in New Zealand with Active Manuka Honey, Jojoba Oil, Avocado Oil and Vitamin E, our certified natural Tinted Moisturisers provide a wealth of nutrients to enhance the skins health and help protect against free radical damage. The lightweight formula is a makeup bag staple, perfect for everyday wear without weighing skin down with nasty additives. As with all our products, our tinted moisturisers are also 100% micro plastic free. Providing beautiful sheer coverage when worn alone, you can also pair with our certified natural Luminous Pressed Powder for extra coverage and staying power.
Suitable for all skin types and available in three beautiful shades, our tinted moisturisers now have improved packaging and a new summer fruit fragrance. Plus, the shade ‘Day Light’ has been improved to more accurately represent a medium tone.
Mascara
Mascara is an everyday essential, but with the eye area being particularly sensitive, it’s important to consider the effect that synthetic mascaras may have. The good news is, opting for natural (and gentler) mascara has never been easier with our certified natural, fragrance free Thickening Mascara. Available in Jet Black or Blackened Brown, the formula is gentle and buildable, making it a versatile choice for every occasion. The award-winning formula contains New Zealand Halloysite Clay, Active Manuka Honey, Grapefruit Extract, and Vitamin E to keep your lashes nourished and healthy.
Lipstick
We all love a good lipstick, particularly when its cruelty free and locally made with a nourishing blend of good-for-you ingredients. Crafted in Kerikeri, New Zealand, our moisture rich natural lipsticks are infused with active botanicals and premium pigments for creamy colour and long lasting lip nourishment. This includes ingredients such as Shea Butter, Candelilla Wax, Squalane, Beeswax, and Vitamin E. With 14 beautiful shades, some of our top picks include Glamorous (a classic blue-red), Summer Rain (a rich plum-pink) and Precious (a soft pink-nude). Dress them up with a natural lip pencil, or pair with one of our natural tinted lip hydrators for a hint of shimmer.
