For four decades, Jurlique has been a pioneer of pure, natural-based skincare, crafting products enriched with potent, farm-grown botanicals. . At the heart of our journey lies the rose — the queen of our farm and the crown jewel of our skincare formulations. From the very beginning, our founders, Jurgen and Ulrike Klein, recognized the profound skincare benefits of roses, planting them as one of their first crops in 1985.
Why the Rose?
The decision to focus on roses was not arbitrary. Our founders knew Old Garden Roses held the highest active properties, with Rosa gallica boasting strongly scented flowers and thickly textured petals in various shades of red. As Ulrike Klein, co-founder of Jurlique, once said, "Roses connect you to nature – to beauty within. They are the queen of plants when it comes to skincare."
Our Legacy Rose
We have meticulously honed our expertise in rose cultivation with ten varieties of roses across over 2200 bushes. These include our vibrant Rose gallica hybrid blooms and our exclusive Jurlique Rose, a unique variety with a highly perfumed scent, soft pink petals, and a super-hydrating oil extract—developed with renowned breeder George Thomson for our 30th anniversary.
Every winter, we hand prune our rose bushes to encourage the sweetest blooms, fertilizing them every spring with biodynamic* compost made on our farm. From the middle of spring to autumn, our roses are hand-harvested at the peak of their bloom, ensuring we capture their full vitality and skincare benefits. This meticulous care translates into skincare products that are rich in potent, natural ingredients, providing hydration, nourishment, and a luxurious experience for your skin.
Jurlique's Hero Ingredient
The roses grown on the Jurlique Farm in the Adelaide Hills are held in high regard. This is evident in our rose-inspired products, each formulated to deliver the unmatched benefits of these exquisite blooms. The potent properties of our roses feature prominently in our Rare Rose Range, Rosewater Balancing Mist, Rose Hand Cream, Rose Body Lotion and, of course, our 2025 Exclusive Edition Rose Body Oil. This luxurious body oil, featuring our finest blooms and botanicals, provides hydration, leaving skin soft, supple and beautifully scented.
