JOURNEY TO THE JAR: THE STORY OF OUR ROSE - Jurlique US

JOURNEY TO THE JAR: THE STORY OF OUR ROSE

You might call the Rose “queen of the botanicals”, such is its popularity and regard. Our particular matriarch is the species Rosa gallica. Nine varieties of Rosa gallica grow on our organic farm in the Adelaide hills of South Australia, their blooms spanning a spectrum of shades, but their properties and intoxicating scent identical. This is the story of the queen of botanicals and her journey from first planting to taking centre stage in our nourishing skin care.Step 1 | South Australian provenanceAdelaide is the Rose capital of Australia, thanks in large part to its climate – hot in summer and with plenty of rain throughout winter – which is ideal for growing Roses. Nutrient-rich soil and pure, unpolluted air are some of the most important qualities of our farm and to capitalise on this pristine environment, we follow organic growing methods, keeping the farm free from synthetic fertilisers, pesticides and insecticides.Step 2 | Plant partnersPlanting is meticulously planned so that all our botanicals can work symbiotically to protect each other from harm. Our Roses are planted beside Yarrow , which nourishes and protects them from predatory insects.Step 3 | Hand-picking petalsHarvesting begins in November each year, and our Roses are gently picked by hand when at their peak. Between November and February, we harvest 30 to 60 kilograms of Rose petals each week. Some weeks, when we’ve had particularly good weather, the Roses grow extra quickly and we can harvest up to 100 kilograms of petals per week.Step 4 | Next comes dryingThe Rose petals are laid flat on large racks and placed in our heated drying cupboards for five to six days. The dried petals can be stored for up to three years without diminishing their active ingredients. Rose is a key ingredient in many of our products, so it’s important that we always have a continuous supply.Step 5 | Extracting the nutrientsTo unlock the nutrients within the Rose, each petal goes through our exclusive extraction process. This proprietary process captures the pure, potent and active essential nutrients and minerals from the plants. This precious Rose extract is then transported to our nearby Natural Beauty Plant, which was developed in line with our culture of sustainability.Step 6 | The products you loveHere at the Natural Beauty Plant, the Rosa gallica extract becomes the hero ingredient in many of our most loved products, including our bestselling Rose Moisture Plus Moisturising Lotion and Rose Hand Cream. As well as imparting its divine scent, this botanical beauty helps hydrate dry skin, leaving it feeling soft and supple.

THE JOURNEY OF OUR PRECIOUS ROSA GALLICA FLOWERS - Jurlique US

THE JOURNEY OF OUR PRECIOUS ROSA GALLICA FLOWERS

It takes an exceptional Rose to become an extraordinary extract. Discover the journey of the Roses that made it into our ultra luxe Fragrant Rose Hand Cream Limited Edition. It’s a story about liquid life force. Jurlique has always known that Nature is the most powerful beauty lab. The secret of the lush moisture and intense Rose scent of the NEW Fragrant Rose Hand Cream Limited Edition lies in the earth. THE STORY BEGINS WITH A ROSE BUD The pure essence of Rosa gallica flowers contained in the rich hand cream is drawn only from the best blooms of the season – the picks of the bunch. Hand-sown into the nutrient-rich soil of our organic Farm, each Rose plant is nourished by clear rainwater and sunlight of South Australia’s Adelaide Hills – the purest place on Earth. As the first organic Roses spring tenderly from the bush, they are gently hand-tended, raised to perfect bloom – Nature’s perfect Roses. PURITY IS THE ONLY PROCESS At Jurlique, everything is timed to Nature’s cycle. We hand-pick the best Roses only while they are at the peak of their natural power and take them to the botanical drying shed on our Farm, where fresh ingredients become purely concentrated, active extracts. Inside the shed, our Roses go through a meticulous three-phase extraction process to capture the powerful antioxidants and hydrating properties that live inside each petal. This painstaking process delivers a rich concentrated extract to deeply hydrate and replenish the skin on hands. NOT ALL ROSES ARE CREATED EQUAL Our Rosa Gallica is not just any Rose. Known as the Alchemist’s Rose, this Rose has been used medicinally for thousands of years – the pick of the bunch for its indulgent nourishing properties and the sweet fragrance that envelops the senses, lifting both the mind and the body. THE ULTIMATE GIFT OF NATURE We’ve simply blended the intense, active concentrate of Rosa Gallica into a lushly fragrant luxury hand cream, both a hand moisturizer and antioxidant-loaded, to deeply hydrate, soothe, soften and restore the skin while relaxing the senses. No artificial fragrances, parabens, silicones, PEGs or mineral oils or paraffin – just the pure liquid life force of red Roses, captured in a tube. We’ve also boxed it beautifully, into a luxurious gift for the skin and the senses. Give to someone special – or to self. An intense indulgence has never felt more necessary.

MEET THE MOTHERS AMONGST US! - Jurlique US

MEET THE MOTHERS AMONGST US!

There are iconic women who transform our world all around us. This Mother’s Day we wanted to celebrate those we sit amongst. We spoke to some of the inspirational women in our Sydney office to understand how they nourish, how they balance work and home life and how their own mothers have inspired them. Anna, Marketing Director - ANZ Mother to Dayne & Mila How do you nourish your skin? I think masks are such a wonderful way to give my skin a boost, or treat a particular issue. My favourites are Purity Specialist Treatment Mask, to deeply cleanse and smooth, and Intense Recovery Mask to revitalise. Has the concept of 'beauty' changed for you since becoming a mother? Absolutely. Having a child, you instantly become the whole world for this tiny person and dedicate yourself fully and unconditionally to them. Well, at least the first few years. The notion of beauty evolved for me to become more holistic, to focus on inner beauty rather than my looks. Motherhood does that to you, it puts your whole life in perspective. What’s your morning ritual? I always start with a cleanser to wash off all the dirt and impurities. My favourite is our Nourishing Cleansing Oil, it has an amazing texture and fragrance. My skin is left feeling soft and smooth. Another must have is Jurlique’s Activating Water Essence, which is a delight to use and it makes my moisturiser work harder and last longer, it makes such a big difference to my skin. How do you balance family life with work life? The short answer is I don’t. I just go with the flow while my kids are young and enjoy the ride. It gets super busy and exhausting at times, but it’s worth it! I had to become much more organised and make sure I plan for all weekly meals ahead, coordinate my work travel with my partner and book the babysitter months in advance. What is something your mother always said to you? Mum used to say: “Anna, in this life you can only be successful if you believe in yourself”. A notion that helped me at different stages of my life when my self-esteem was low. What do you wish for your children? I wish for them to be happy, loved and try to make this life better for all beings around them too. It’s probably a bit ambitious but I’m sure they can give it a go. Aimee, Design Lead – Global Mother to Willow and now, at the time of publishing, 4-week-old Charli Who’s your everyday icon? I have the hugest admiration for Saskia Havekes, founder of Grandiflora. We have been so fortunate to collaborate with her on some of our campaigns over the past few years. I am truly astounded and inspired by the way she has created an internationally recognized business empire, whilst remaining one of the most hard-working, gracious, kind and gentle women I have ever met – all whilst raising two daughters. How do you nourish your skin? At the time of answering this, I am a few weeks away from meeting our second child – and I feel like I literally can’t get enough moisture into my skin – GIVE ME ALL THE OILS AND MASKS! I use Jurlique’s Skin Balancing Face Oil every day, layering it under moisturiser and also mixing it with foundation – my skin literally drinks it up! I also love our Rose Moisture Plus Moisturising Cream Mask. I love that when used overnight, your skin looks refreshed and hydrated in the morning. I am going to keep this one especially close over the upcoming months! How has your own mother inspired you? My mum has always been my biggest supporter and cheerleader. She has brought me up to believe that I have something unique to offer the world, BUT that if I want to make a difference, it’s up to me to go out and do it. 15 years ago, she set up a business in Cape Town, South Africa, creating art out of recycled tea-bags. The business now supports more than 20 individuals from an informal settlement. It is testament to her unwavering desire to create a positive impact in the world through the talent she has been blessed with. Has the concept of 'beauty' changed for you since becoming a mother? I feel like since having a little one, ‘beauty’ has become a way for me to reconnect to myself as ‘Aimee’ and not ‘mummy’. I feel energized and able to take on the world when I have washed hair, skin care and make up on and I am out of my tracksuit pants! What’s you must have beauty product? Jurlique’s Skin Balancing Face Oil How do you balance family life with work life? My husband and I regularly challenge ourselves and each other to focus on work when we’re at work but then remain present when we’re at home, but we don’t always get it right. What do you wish for your children? That they find a sense of purpose and through that, happiness. Above all, I hope they are kind and gracious, to themselves and others. Also, I hope they always come over for weekly dinners even when their Dad and I are old and uncool! Bertha, Visual Merchandising Manager – ANZ. Mother to Audrey and Eliza. How do you nourish your skin? By drinking lots of water and making sure I always do a mask every week no matter how busy life gets! How has your own mother inspired you? My mother passed away last year. She was always thinking of others, even up until the end of her life. So, I try to always put myself in other’s shoes and do what’s best by others. Has the concept of 'beauty' changed for you since becoming a mother? I try to be a role model for my girls. I want them to know that all women are beautiful no matter what we look like on the outside. As a mother, beauty for me is not physical but how we take a moment to appreciate everything around us – nature, people and how we are all connected. What’s your morning ritual? Apart from ushering the kids around and making ham and cheese sandwiches, I make sure that I take 10 minutes for myself. I cleanse my skin, followed by Activating Water Essence and Calendula Redness Rescue Restorative Treatment Serum. Then I use the Herbal Recovery Signature Eye Cream followed by the Skin Balancing Face Oil as a moisturiser. I make sure I do all the steps, as it’s the only time in the day I get to focus on my skin. What’s your must have beauty product? My Jurlique Rose Silk Finishing Powder, it’s changed my life! How do you balance family life with work life? I am very lucky to work at a company that respects and encourages work and family balance, which makes it much easier to be a full-time working mum. I make sure that I am there for most of my girl’s school performances and that I actually switch off the emails as soon as I am home…or at least not look them till the next morning on the train! What is something your mother always said to you? “Don’t take on everything yourself – ask for help when you need it.” What do you wish for your children? I want my girls to be happy, healthy and have a positive outlook on life. There is so much beauty all around us and I don’t think we take enough time to appreciate it. Nicole, Brand Manager - ANZ Mother to Zoe How do you nourish your skin? Days have been a little more hectic since becoming a mother 5 months ago, but I make sure, at the very least, that I hydrate with Activating Water Essence and Herbal Recovery Signature Moisturising Cream every morning and night. If I have an extra few minutes, I use the Herbal Recovery Signature Serum and Herbal Recovery Signature Eye Cream. I also squeeze in a Purity Specialist Treatment Mask or Intense Recovery Mask every week. How has your own mother inspired you? Her work ethic and strength are so inspiring. She is amazing. Has the concept of 'beauty' changed for you since becoming a mother? I think I feel more beautiful now as a mother, than I ever have. Beauty seems more tied with happiness than my physical appearance. What’s you must have beauty product? Activating Water Essence is my holy grail! How do you balance family life with work life? At the moment I get to enjoy all the time with my beautiful girl, Zoe, as I am on maternity leave. I will worry about the balance when I need to. What is something your mother always said to you? “Don’t waste time worrying about things that are out of your control.” How do you relax and reconnect with yourself at the end of a busy week?A walk around the block, a hot bath and a face mask. What do you wish for your children? I wish Zoe a lifetime of infinite love, happiness and friendship! Strength when she needs it and to keep her beautiful little smile.

WHEN DID YOU FIRST TRULY SEE YOUR MUM? - Jurlique US

WHEN DID YOU FIRST TRULY SEE YOUR MUM?

There comes a moment when we recognise not only how our mothers transform our lives but how she has lived her own. We see her as a woman, a mentor, a confidant – an everyday icon. It doesn’t always hit like a lightning bolt. Sometimes it’s a slow appreciation that dawns as we enter adulthood. Other times, it’s in the awestruck affinity we feel for our own mothers when we become parents ourselves. When we truly begin to see our mothers as women who lived entire lives before us, and who created a world around us, we understand what it really means to be iconic. And that there’s more to say than thank you on Mother’s Day. One day really isn’t enough. We honour resilience We bow down to the plate-spinning juggles and the struggles – because we can see now that when she made our childhoods feel like magic, she worked hard to make it so. Even when it seemed effortless – in fact, especially then. We admire her power to lead and inspire The trails our mothers blazed to light our way are often invisible when we’re kids. Was yours doing double shifts? Was she chipping at the glass ceiling or the role model and CEO of the home? We know she deserved to be paid double. As grown women, we see how far there is to go because we understand how far our mothers and mentors have come. That’s real inspo. We celebrate her compassion How do we say a simple thanks for her endless capacity to nourish and nurture us? For the unrelenting strength in her tenderness? She’s imperfect and so are we and yet she loves us anyway. There’s no love like it. Mum, we get it. We see you. And on Mother’s Day we give more than gratitude. To celebrate all she is and all she does, Jurlique has boxed up absolute bestsellers in beautiful gift sets – for every kind of everyday icon.

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT FACE MISTS - Jurlique US

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT FACE MISTS

Face mists…they’re just fancy water, right? Well, they are water-based but they offer so much more. Along with refreshing your skin, face mists deliver a hit of hydration to your skin whenever it needs it, as well as reawaken the senses. We sat down with our experts to find out what the fuss is all about.What is a face mist?Unlike mineral or thermal water, face mists contain skin-loving ingredients and botanicals. Think of it as your toner step, closing the pores, refreshing skin and priming your face for the next step in your skin care ritual. With a few spritzes of a face mist, surface skin is softened, delivering nutrients and moisture to the top layers of the skin. Jurlique Beauty Expert Rebecca Nicholls (she’s our fountain of all knowledge) puts it best when she says: “Imagine your skin is like a dry sponge. To allow a sponge to soak up moisture, it has to be damp. Your skin works in a similar way.”The benefits of face mistsNot only are face mists refreshing, they hydrate the skin and leave it dewier. They cool skin on contact (perfect for warmer temperatures or after a workout at the gym) and minimise the drying effects of air conditioning and heating (they’re skin care saviours during a flight). Like most skin care products, face mists are formulated for specific purposes, helping to soothe skin, set makeup, tighten pores, nourish skin and give you a healthy-looking glow.How and when to use a face mistA face mist is the second step in your skin care ritual. After cleansing, close your eyes and spritz your mist around your face. Gently press into your skin to help the ingredients absorb and follow up with your Activating Water Essence, serum, eye cream and moisturiser. Face mists can also be used throughout the day (they work over makeup and won’t cause it to smudge) or when you need a little refresh. The best face mist for your skinJurlique Mists contain high-performing botanicals from our farm in the South Australian Hills, which all target skin care concerns. Not sure what your skin type is?

THE BENEFITS OF USING A FACE MASK - Jurlique US

THE BENEFITS OF USING A FACE MASK

Chances are you already have a step-by-step skin care ritual but even when we’re doing all the right things, sometimes our skin needs (or deserves) a little boost. That’s when you turn to a face mask – or, what we like to call, ‘power products.’ They’re highly concentrated and work hard to solve pesky skin issues, from dryness and oiliness to irritation and blemishes. Here’s why it’s worth adding a weekly mask to your skin care routine.THEY TARGET COMPLEXION CONCERNSFace masks are so much more than an excuse to sit down and relax for 10 minutes. They deliver high concentrations of ingredients to the skin, are formulated for specific skin types and address the concerns that come with having dry, dull, sensitive, ageing, acne-prone or oily skin. To address different skin care concerns at once, try multi-masking by layering two (or more) masks in different areas of the face.Dry and dehydrated skinWe recommend: Jurlique Rose Moisture Plus Moisturising Cream Mask. Rich and creamy, this natural moisturising face mask contains Rose Hip Oil and Shea Butter to deeply hydrate and replenish the skin. Visible signs of dehydration and premature ageing are addressed, and skin’s overall texture is improved.Sensitive skinWe recommend: Jurlique Nurturing Mask. A creamy clay face mask enriched with Shea Butter and Jojoba Seed Oil, this mask moisturises and revitalises the complexion and reduces signs of redness.Dull, tired skinWe recommend: Jurlique Intense Recovery Mask. Lightweight Rose Hip and Carrot Oils in this mask nourish the skin, while Rosa gallica and Chamomile extracts help to restore radiance. As for any impurities? The mask’s base of Green Clay absorbs them.Oily or congested skinWe recommend: Jurlique Purifying Mask. To take skin from oily to looking matte and feeling soothed and softened, this mask is our go-to. Containing Kaolin Clay and Moor extract to refine skin and address excess surface oiliness, this treatment mask is deeply purifying.Ageing skinWe recommend: Jurlique Purity Specialist Treatment Mask. With Apricot Kernel that provides a gentle exfoliating action and Willowbark extract to help smooth and refine skin’s texture, this creamy clay mask deeply cleanses and removes impurities.THEY HAVE VISIBLE RESULTSAs a focused form of skin care, face masks offer instant gratification. As well as targeting specific skin care concerns, cream masks absorb into the skin and encourage the blood vessels to expand so more blood can flow through the face (hello, radiance). Use face masks to complement your current skin care ritual, and to give your skin a boost when you’re dehydrated, tired or before an event. We like to use one once a week, and make sure we pack one in our suitcases whenever we travel.THEY’RE A RELAXING RITUALStress not only effects our mental health but can have a knock-on effect on our skin, too. Yes, masks contain skin-loving ingredients, but stopping to unwind for 10-15 minutes while they do their magic also carries a pampering, self-care element (which we could all do with more of).THEY BOOST THE EFFECTIVENESS OF OTHER SKIN CARE PRODUCTSAfter masking, your toner, serum and moisturiser will absorb better. Think of your post-mask skin like a canvas, prepped and ready for the next skin care step. Also, since masks have concentrated formulas, there’s a better chance of those ingredients penetrating the deeper layers of your skin. Win-win all-round.Complete your skincare routine by adding in a weekly face mask. Jurlique products target different skincare concerns - explore our range to find your mask match.
