The best of A-BEAUTY

Home-grown brands are beloved for innovative, easy-to-use formulas that get the job done. Consider these 12 reasons to scope out Australian beauty talent before your next buy

1. END OTA

Deep Hydration Face Moisturiser, $22

The namesake brand of Australia’s largest day spa, expect natural formulas packed with the ingredients your complexion needs to be healthy and vibrant. One of our favourite formulas is their bestselling organic moisturiser, packed with avocado, rosehip and grapeseed oils to comfort and soften dehydrated skin.

2. NATIO

Treatments Marine Mineral Overnight Repair Sleep Mask, $17.95

As evidence of our country’s long history of home-grown beauty, consider Natio. The family-run business, going strong since 1993, recently launched a new range of plant-powered treatments for smoother, brighter skin. We can recommend the sleep mask, which has Tasmanian sea kelp and wakame to ensure you wake up glowing.

3. LI’TYA

Herbal Kelp Hydrating Polish, $49

Blending ethically-sourced native ingredients and Australian First Nations elders’ healing philosophies, Li’Tya supports Indigenous communities and brings traditional spirituality to modern skincare. To rehydrate and boost radiance, work the polish into damp skin after cleansing to reveal brighter, smoother skin.

4 . LANOLIPS

Rose Gold 101 Ointment, $19

Aptly named after its endless uses, Lanolips’ original 101 Ointment nixes chapped lips and adds long-lasting moisture to dry skin. Its success sparked the brand’s expansion into skincare, including a suite of tinted and fruitinfused lip balms. We love that every formula is cruelty-free and uses locallysourced, medical-grade lanolin.

5. BIOLOGI

Bqk Radiance Duo, $138
