Calling all skincare junkies as we’re bringing you five new products that have hit the shelves this week.
There are always new products and releases coming out all the time, so how do you know what to try out? To make it easier, we’ve rounded up a few new products that are worth adding to your collection.
ETHIQUE ZERO WASTE LIP BALM RANGE
Ethique has recently released its first lip balm range made up of five flavours and packed in gorgeous 100% plastic-free, plant wax-lined home compostable push tubes. This range is created from direct trade with sustainable ingredients to hydrate and give you luscious lips.
Did you know almost 200 million plastic lip balm tubes end up in landfills EVERY year? Personally, I am a lip balm addict, so knowing that I can pop the tube into my home compost or garden to break down and nourish the earth makes me feel less guilty about having a bunch of lip balms lying around.
The range includes:
PEPPED UP – A cooling peppermint formulated with cocoa butter and jojoba oil
SO COCOA – Yum… smells just like chocolate as it’s made with organic and fairtrade cocoa butter, moringa, jojoba, and castor oil.
SUGARPLUM – The only tinted balm from the selection perfect to add a boost of natural color. Made of castor seed, cocoa butter, moringa, and jojoba oil.
JUICY – Sweet and citrusy with pink grapefruit and vanilla.
NECTAR – One of the unscented balms for the everyday hydration if you’re sensitive to scents, packed full of fatty acids and Vitamin E.
RRP $12.00

Loved by many of us New Zealanders, essano, has brought in an even better new and improved hydrating rosehip range.

This new range is packed with Açai Berry Oil, Aloe Vera, Jojoba Oil, and Shea butter! There are fourteen new products to the range but here are a few out of the many gorgeous products essano has launched.

MANUKARX
Last week, New Zealand skin health brand MānukaRx launched a radiant new branding for its hero ingredient, East Cape Mānuka essential oil. More than 1000 times more potent than manuka honey, East Cape Mānuka essential oil is scientifically proven to have powerful anti-aging, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-viral, and anti-inflammatory properties!
Unique to the East Cape, mānuka essential oil is scientifically proven to contain the highest amount of β‐triketones (β‐triketones are natural compounds that kill or stop the growth of microorganisms), 30x more effective than Australian tea oil, and contains synergistic properties when combined with other ingredients (meaning the potency of both ingredients is amplified).
