Edible Beauty Pure Enchantress Makeup Remover Oil
Without stripping natural face oils, Edible Beauty’s Pure Enchantress Makeup Remover Oil is a delicate cleansing oil that removes any makeup, excess oil and pollutants from your skin leaving it with a soothing, moisturised and non-irritable finish. Suitable for all skin types, the Pure Enchantress Oil is also effective at removing waterproof mascara and heavy makeup thanks to its recipe of natural ingredients including grapeseed-, grapefruit-, hemp seed-, jojoba- and cherry-oil to name just a few. After one use, you’ll wish that it was edible!
Face Halo Original
Forget disposable makeup wipes (which can take up to 100 years to decompose in landfill), and instead, look to Australian owned Face Halo – the renowned modern makeup remover that’s taking the world by storm! Not only is this soft, little cushion eco-friendly and chemical-free, it only requires water to gently wipe off your full-face of makeup. A personal favourite within the Hunter and Bligh team, Face Halo replaces up to 500 single-use makeup wipes. Just wet, wipe, wash and reuse.
Kora Organics by Miranda Kerr Mist
Australian owned, Kora Organics by Miranda Kerr is renowned for its array of certified organic skincare products. To help calm your mind, body and skin, we recommend spritzing yourself with the Calming Lavender Mist. Made with aloe leaf juice, lavender water and oil, bergamot, orange, tangerine, sea salt and quartz to name a few; Kora Organics’ Mist spray is perfect to soothe irritations and redness whilst creating a refreshing and relaxing sensation – all while hydrating the skin to look healthier and less distressed. Plus, it is also available in rose and citrus.
Mere Hydra-Bright Eye Lifting Catalyst Cream
Another Australian owned beauty company, Mere, has created a revolutionary Hydra-Bright Eye Lifting Catalyst Cream which is non-irritable, non-sensitising and made from an impressive selection of 100 per cent natural ingredients. This vegan-friendly revival cream is made with a natural blend of Persian silk, holy herb and an array of antioxidant-rich extracts to gently remove signs of fatigue whilst protecting the delicate areas of skin around the eye. If you haven’t already added this to your skincare routine, we recommend doing so!
Sukin SPF30 Sheer Touch Facial Sunscreen
Australia’s leading natural skin and beauty product brand, Sukin, launched a chemical-free, 100% naturally derived sunscreen earlier this year- the SPF30 Sheer Touch Facial Sunscreen. Mineral-based and vegan friendly, this sunscreen is perfect for tackling the skin against harmful chemicals, preventing sun damage, and it also protects marine life from bleaching which is attributed to the many chemicals found in regular sunscreens. Designed for daily wear using a non-greasy, reef-friendly formula, Sukin’s SPF30 Sheer Touch Facial Sunscreen is also available in tinted and untinted shades.
Thursday Plantation Tea Tree Toothpaste
Made in Australia, for the past 40 years, Thursday Plantation has been the country’s favourite natural oils company. Working alongside Australian suppliers, buyers will be pleased to know that a number of Thursday Plantation’s products carry a Made in Australia certification. If you’re looking to give your mouth a clean that it deserves, look to the Thursday Plantation Tea Tree Toothpaste. Fluoride-and sugar-free, the Tea Tree Toothpaste uses the unique antibacterial power of tea tree oil for each brush, fostering the help of healthy teeth and gums, control of plaque and tartar and, of course, providing a fresh, clean feel.
