Organic is thrown around a lot in beauty these days. And sometimes, not in a good way. Did you know that a product can legally use the word organic even if there’s not one single organic ingredient in the mix?
Fortunately, Stem Organics is raising the bar for the Australian natural and organic beauty industry. This boutique range (there are eight products at present) is powered by antioxidant-rich formulations, featuring 70%-and-higher levels of certified-organic ingredients.
Just some of the goodness you’ll find: Kakadu plum, which has an impressively high vitamin C count … Willow bark, which is naturally exfoliating … Beta glucan (from oats), which promises rejuvenating benefits … Essential fatty acids, which offer beautifully nurturing and nourishing … and Australian Bush Flower essences, which add a lovely healing touch.
Prices begin at $38. Available at Stem Organics.
PS - Did you know: there are various reasons a product may not be 100% organic. For instance, it may need a preservative system for shelf-life purposes, or it may include ingredients harvested from the wild rather than organically farmed.
