Body Products of Note & Sukin Organics

Always a great fan of natural and even more so, organic beauty products, one of my greatest discoveries in the last year has been Sukin Organics.

Sukin Organics is an Australian organic cosmetics company that boasts of 100% natural active ingredients. They have no parabens, no mineral oils, no sodium lauryl sulfate, no artificial fragrance or colours, no petro chemicals, no trithanolamin (carcinogen), no harsh detergents.

When you look at the labels of Sukin Organics, the ingredients are all very straight forward and easy to understand. And, the products are beautiful.

I started of buying the deodorant. Always on the lookout for an aluminium free deodorant that works I tried this one. It is really light and subtle in a convenient spray bottle. It worked for me, although warning I don't sweat much, and I don't stink either (as far as I know - if I stopped showering maybe that would change)

The next thing I bought was the Hydrating Body Lotion. An alluring essential oil mix on an aloe vera base. Works beautifully, and I have extremely dry skin in a abrasive Australian climate. Really great, no irritation and so gentle that I use it on my little girl.

There is no greater value for money (and I've done the calculations) than the Botanical Body Wash. At $19.95 AUS for 1 litre, it's definitely the best value out of all the organic product lines.
And the best quality for the price, none greasy or runny or rich, just smooth beautiful creams and gels, understated, simple and effective.

Their products are now also carbon neutral.

There is another Australian brand that I wished to mention. Sohum, a Melbourne brand with aromas and body products to die for. I found it while walking down Chapel St, Melbourne, I walked into this calm, tranquil, beautifully thought out store. It stocked a brand I had never heard of called Sohum. After agonising over what to buy for sometime I chose a body butter called Vanilla Bourbon, it was like silk to touch, and smelt so good it made me want to have sex with myself. All their products seem to be so well thought of. Gorgeous gorgeous creams, scrubs, lotions and candles.
