More and more consumers are being drawn to the world of natural beauty products. Some because they want to reduce their impact on Mother Earth. Others because they're looking for a more gentle alternative. Some in the hopes it will cause less irritation to their skin.
Whatever one's reasons for going natural, it's always nice to dip your toe into something newm or new to you, without it breaking the bank. And these fab three Kiwi brands make it possible with products that cost less than ten dollars!
Skinfood
For sixteen years Skinfood's been bringing beautiful products to the market at fabulous prices. Want to try them? Their body bar range is only $3.99, the lip balm is $7.99, and the divine sheet masks $6.99 each. Cruelty-free, Vegetarian Society approved, and designed to make you feel cleansed, nourished and revived - what's not to love?
Boasting over 15 Top Rated products, essano are one of the most reviewed and loved brands in NZ. The all-natural ingredients are assembled from an all-star cast of plant-derived organic oils and active natural botanical extracts. Most products retail over $10, but you can try their Micellar Water for $9, Body Wash for $10 and a sheet mask for $6. Check them out during one of Countdown's Beauty Weeks and you can try more for under $10.
Cruelty-free, GE-free, Child Labor-free, with a 'love me or your money back guarantee', ecostore have been rocking our world since 1993, bringing us affordable, natural products designed to show our bodies and environment loads of love. Pictured is the Body Wash ($7.99), the lavender soap ($2.95), and the Skin by ecostore Nourishing Manuaka Lip Balm ($9.99) - a small offering from a range that includes many amazing products for less than a tenner.
I love these brands so affordable and natural.
