Our New Organic Aloe Vera Cream Bases


We have been trialing some new organic creams that we use as the bases for some of our products. We want to keep all of our products up to date and fresh, whilst maintaining their standard and quality. So we are really excited to be able to say that the new bases have far exceeded our expectations!

We have seen definite improvements in the appearance and texture of our skin. And so, we will be replacing all of our existing organic cream bases with the new range.

We are finding the creams are lighter under makeup but still ultra hydrating. The reason for this is they are Aloe based creams. Aloe Vera is extremely hydrating, restorative and light. We will post a blog later this week on Aloe Vera so you will know why we love it so much for our skin.

You can expect some new additions to our range as well. We are introducing a Night Cream which is a little heavier than the Moisturising Facial Creme, and a deliciously light Facial Serum.You can expect the same great blends of essential oils, extracts and all the other natural ingredients we use to tailor your products, just with a new and improved base!

We think you will love these, and look forward to hearing your feedback once you have tried them!

Oil of the Month - May Chang (Litsea Cubeba)


To all of our lovely followers, thank you for bearing with us whilst we have been going through our period of transition.

Starting from this month, we are going to be highlighting our "oil of the month". To kick us off, this month, we are writing about May Chang (litsea cubeba).

Litsea Cubeba is Erin's favourite of all of the essential oils.

She believes this to be a savoir for modern day living. In our fast paced, sleep deprived world with too much stimulation causing fatigue, lack of mental clarity and anxiety, this is a must use oil. Known as the Oil of Tranquility,  it is a stimulating, uplifting, refreshing oil that calms body and mind.  It has a tonic effect on the nervous system which eases symptoms of stress such as anxiety, confusion, inability to concentrate and fatigue of the body.

As many essential oils have a great effect for reducing stress, we particularly love to use this oil when our minds and/or hearts are racing. It is a great oil to use in the work place every day, when you're feeling down, lethargic or uncomfortable.

As an added bonus, it elicits feelings of happiness with it's fresh happy scent, and even better, it's safe for use during pregnancy, and postpartum if you have the baby blues, to uplift and bring feelings of happiness.

Hello Spring!!!

With the warmer weather upon us it’s time to update your skincare.

I recommend lighter facial moisturisers to get ready for summer.  I'm blending lots of light citrus oils for fresh, clean, summer skin.

Get yourself stocked up on all your body products now.  Again get some bright citrus body lotions or body butter.  I always have a wattleseed body scrub all year round.  But this year I have a pink grapefruit body scrub and a sea salt body scrub.  Great to get your legs and feet ready for exposure!

Lastly for today, a very good friend of mine has an obsession with smelling like summer all year round.  She loves the coconutty smell of reef oil.  And who doesn't think of summer days when we smell this!  So for the last couple of years I've been making her tubs of coconut body butter.  The coconut is a fragrant oil and not an essential oil.  So it’s not something I would usually promote on our website as such.  But I have had many requests from people who know her I thought, why not?

Keep your eye on the webpage, I’ll be adding this as a buy now later this week.

 Happy Spring!!!!
