Natural beauties

From plants to minerals, these products harness the earth's beauty-boosting powers
We avoid eating anything poisonous, so why do so many of us douse ourselves in toxins every day?

We do it without thinking. Millions of cosmetic products are replete with fillers, binders, waxes, silicones and other petrochemicals which increase their shelf life, and can having lasting – but not necessarily positive – effects on your skin and general health.

Did you know parabens (chemicals widely used as preservatives) have been linked with breast cancer, and formaldehydes (a form of disinfectant) is also a known human carcinogenic? It’s enough to make you never wash again.

The below products are all free from all these nasties, and many are made from 100% natural ingredients. Crucially, we’ve tried them all and can attest to their effectiveness too (we don’t care if a product has been crafted by the hands of Mother Nature herself – if it doesn’t work, it’s not worth your time or money).

The natural world is potent. It’s time to make the most of its power.
