Ella Baché Botanical Skin Treatment Oil
This week, iconic Australian beauty brand Ella Baché launches the all-natural, vegan Botanical Skin Treatment Oil—the first luxury skincare oil on the Australian market to harness the power of Byron Bay-sourced hemp seed oil. Australian native Kakadu Plum seed oil is formulated with berry seed complex to brighten, plump and smoothe the skin (instantly, I might add). You can also expect some powerful antioxidant properties. Hemp seed oil, jojoba seed oil and evening primrose oil are rich in therapeutic properties, helping to protect and reinforce the skin’s natural barrier, while alleviate excessive dryness to repair damaged skin. Ginger root extract soothes irritated skin. Visit www.ellabache.com.au
White Lotus Acupressure Euromat Mat
Known as the Rolls Royce of acupressure mats, the White Lotus is a mainstay in my house. Lying on the mat (I also have the pillow) for just a few minutes per day can help ease pain, raise energy levels, relieve insomnia and stress. It also won the “Best Acupressure Mat” in the prestigious Vergleich products Awards Germany 2016 and 2017. The Euromat uses food grade plastic for the spikes, with no toxic glues to attach them. Non allergenic dye is used on the cotton. Made using memory foam to contour to the spine, it has a larger surface area to make lying on it easier. All materials are sourced in Europe and have a ‘confidence in textiles’ certification. Also try White Lotus’ skin needling. Visit www.whitelotus.com.au
Petit Kiddo Baby Bum Cleanser
Parents, listen up. You need this—even if you don’t know it yet. I started using Petit Kiddo’s Baby Bum Cleanser a couple of months ago (on baby, not me!) and I’m not sure how I did without it before. Specifically formulated for nappy care, this is an all-natural liniment that cleanses bub’s delicate skin, nourishing the skin and leaving a thin oily layer, which acts like a barrier to the next lot of wees and poops. Inspired from a traditional French recipe, acclaimed in France for decades, Petit Kiddo Baby Bum Cleanser is made in Australia from natural ingredients, including a locally produced certified organic olive oil. Also cruelty-free, nasty-free, paraben-free, mineral oil-free, petrochemical-free, fragrance-free and BPA-free (phew!). Visit www.petitkiddo.com.au
Be Pure
New Zealand-based Be Pure was born from the desire to help people personalise their health, for optimal wellbeing. Owner and founder Ben Warren, who also happens to be one of the country’s leading nutritionists, is a wealth of real health information that is gently and holistically helping people find their balance. At the core, Be Pure helps people identify which foods support their metabolism to keep their blood sugar levels stable, as the key to hormone health, energy and weight management. “We look at what is driving health concerns, such as organ function or gut health, and then work with individuals to create a personalised, tailored plan,” Ben says. “We understand that no two people are the same and these factors need to be implemented in a way that works for the individual. We work alongside each person to help them find this balance.” I’ve personally done a Be Pure cleanse and felt amazing afterwards. Visit www.bepure.co.nz
Lite the Light Orgonite
Orgone pyramids by LitetheLight are made with the highest intention to amplify and restore the harmonic balance of Mother Earth. These pyramids are powerful tools working in alliance with the crystal kingdom—”a pre-eminent and unified Light Frequency Force” says creator, Michelle. Each crystal/mineral is energy-specific and may be chosen accordingly. As the resin hardens, it locks the crystal in an amplified state with continuous, unending output of light frequencies. The incorporated metals neutralise the negative frequencies. Together, these two aspects manifest as a positive energy generator. Be warned: once you own one, you want to own them all.
