They grow 95% of their pure plant-based ingredients on their certified organic and biodynamic farms in Southern Australia. Their goal is to protect and preserve the natural “life-force” of the healing herbs they cultivate, utilizing principles from aromatherapy, homeopathy, herbal medicine and alchemy.
Balancing Day Care Cream
A lightweight, balancing moisturizer, formulated to provide light-textured hydration for the skin. This easily absorbed lotion helps to minimize the visible signs of aging, leaving the skin with a smooth, healthy-looking glow. Ideal for maintaining balance.
I liked the balancing day care cream; it’s a little rich so I would recommend it more for a normal skin type. If you are a combination skip type this may be better for use in the winter time every second day. I found it a really effective cream to hydrate and bring suppleness back to the skin. Smells great too!

Eye Makeup Remover
A gentle eye makeup remover, formulated as a moisture-based cream that safely and effectively removes eye makeup and impurities without causing irritation. Biodynamically grown Calendula and organic Sunflower and Jojoba Seed Oils leave skin feeling soothed and refreshed, with no oily residue. Ophthalmologist-tested.
I enjoyed using the eye makeup remover, it is gentle but really great at removing suborn mascara. The remover didn’t cause any irritation. It’s also good to all skin types.

A protective hand cream, rich in tangerine, mandarin and lemon, to deeply moisturise and restore smoothness, leaving hands feeling soft and supple.
This hand cream is very rich and great all for skin types, it’s quite concentrated so you don’t need a lot. It worked very well as a deep moisturizer and has a nice lemon drop candy sent. Yum!
