Isn't it strange how time can seem to pass by so slowly yet it also seems like in the blink of an eye it's already March!?  Even though we’re in a lockdown with nothing to do and nowhere to go, many of us still feel drained, tired and overworked.  With the short days and winter in full effect (for those north of the equator) coupled with everything going on in the world today, it is only natural to feel like we’re running on empty.  We also live in a society that is obsessed with productivity.  In the age of side…

           Baltasar Garcian, the Spanish writer and philosopher once said “self-reflection is the school of wisdom”.  Well if that’s the case, I think this year has put us all through a pHD and maybe a post-doctorate as well.  Reflection is defined as ‘serious thought or consideration’.  And with a global pandemic still at hand whilst nearing the end of a Gregorian calendar, what better time to stare into the mirror of the cosmos and reflect on oneself, life and the past 12 months?             Before we dive head first into introspection let’s take the…

                It’s November!  You know what that means right? Yes, the last remnants of auburn autumn colors gracefully falling to their place of rest, leaving space for barren branches to be seen as they kiss the sky.  Yes, winter has purchased her return ticket and may be on that red-eye home sooner than expected.  Yes, that crispness in the air that used to flow deeply in, expand your lungs and revive your soul is slowly turning into a stream of steam on your exhale.  But more than that, it’s National Gratitude Month!  And…

Did you know that water shortage is likely to be a major concern in the coming years? According to the World Wildlife Fund, two-thirds of the world’s population may face water shortages by 2025. Freshwater, is a precious resource, and is often the first ingredient listed in several products that we use today, beauty products included.

*** The following is an excerpt from our Guide to Glowing Skin. This guide is an amazing resource to understand how to nourish your skin and promote radiance from the inside out. 

Integrative beauty takes a whole - person approach to beauty. It understands that our bodies are complicated and addresses the need of a holistic approach to beauty instead of a fragmented approach. Diet and lifestyle changes complement our beauty routines - the same way one may use an exfoliating mask for dull skin, or a spot treatment for blemishes, or an eye cream for under eye circles - we must understand that our daily choices have major influence over how our body and beauty behaves.

We are delighted to announce the launch of our new website!

In this series, we share some of our favourite all natural skincare regimes and ingredients used in different countries and cultures around the world.
