Informed by science and adopting an environment-first philosophy, these innovative brands are developing skincare that is effective, sustainable and satisfyingly sensorial.
Jojoba Ultimate Serum, 30ml, $70; thejojobacompany.com.au
Looking for a sustainable crop to grow on his farm in Yenda, NSW, Ian Turner decided on wadi wadi, a jojoba strain well suited to local conditions. When cold pressed, the jojoba nut produces a liquid wax ester that mimics the molecular structure of human skin’s natural waxes. This 100 per cent pure, golden liquid (Australian Jojoba, 30ml, $20) is deeply hydrating, packed with antioxidants and can deliver active ingredients like HumaColl21 – a vegan collagen used in Ultimate Serum – to the skin’s deeper layers.
Biossance Squalane + Vitamin C Rose Oil, $110; sephora.com.au
Shark liver contains squalene, an oil known for its high moisturising properties. Since it’s used extensively in the beauty industry, millions of sharks are killed each year to meet demand. Biossance’s shark-saving solution: bio-fermented squalane, produced from ethically sourced sugar cane. Touted as biology’s best moisturiser, this vegan-hydrator is the powerhouse ingredient across the Biossance range of skincare.
NIOD Copper Amino Isolate Serum 3 1:1, 15ml, $90; deciem.com
NIOD (non-invasive options in dermal science) continually evolves its products to ensure they make use of the most up-to-date technologies. CAIS3 1:1 is the third generation of its award-winning Copper Amino Isolate Serum and helps trigger skin renewal by building collagen at deep levels. Reducing its impact on the planet, the serum has evolved into a single-bottle offering (it used to be two), reducing packaging and saving CO2 emissions when shipped.
