Thanks to a nourishing blend of marula butter, shea butter, coconut oil and meadowfoam oil, this hard- working SOS salve treats and relieves irritation such as rashes and sunburns. An essential in any makeup bag, it can also be used on cracked heels, chapped lips and dry, dead ends.

This vegan water-activated powder formula sops up dirt, oil and debris in hair with refreshing peppermint essential oil and exfoliating papaya extract. One bottle of this powder shampoo is equivalent to five bottles of liquid shampoo (which requires up to five litres of water to produce). This not only makes The Powder Shampoo easy on the wallet, but also on the environment.

Made with 98 per cent natural-origin ingredients such as propolis, beeswax and shea butter, this tinted lip balm softens lips and imparts a subtle wash of colour. Comes in three wearable shades.

Inside this instant confidence-booster sits a concoction of zesty citrus leaf, spicy cardamom and woody cedar. It’s a scent that’s both fresh and comforting.

Skincare meets makeup in this glow-inducing compact. Its water-gel texture instantly refreshes skin, while
