OUR MISSION
Superfood-powered, Multipurpose Beauty for Better SKIN, Better PLANET
The beauty industry is one of the most unsustainable industries in the world. From our purchasing habits and our hoarding of products to how the industry is geared for profit, the mission of my brand is to address the issues of excessive beauty consumerism that is leaving a damaging impact on our skin and the environment. As beauty consumers we therefore need to take a long hard look at whether we need a latest, new, improved or wonder product. Perhaps one product can multitask and save us the need for more. And we need to ask if the products we use are truly essential for the health of our skin and the planet?
Therefore, I never support the idea of overworking our skin with 10 -14 step skincare routines as it not only puts unnecessary burden on the landfills, but also do more harm than good to our skin.
Why Crowdfunding?
My capsule range of superfood skincare products is ready to complete, but I need your help to get there! With your help, I can complete the range by introducing 'A Nearly Everything Minimalist Powder Mask' that is unlike any other.
At the same time, introducing ethical, plastic-free and zero-waste gifting bags (made of sustainable cork) would also help consumers avoid single-use waste associated with travel and seasonal holidays.
Furthermore, after a year of no face-to-face events, losing my part-time job and unexpected Brexit costs, my small business has taken a severe toll. Exactly when I was ready to raise awareness of my wonderful mission, all our planned events had to be postponed due to the impact of covid19. And, now it is not possible to go ahead with any of those options anymore. Similarly, losing my job affected the business cashflow and other marketing plans which means I really need your support to ensure smooth running of the business.
LEARN ALL ABOUT 'THE NEARLY EVERYTHING MINIMALIST' POWDER MASK
Brimming with antioxidant-rich superfood extracts, it is something we all need to feed the skin with eco-friendly, skin-loving nutrients without compromising on the results.
It works to brighten skin, refine pores, soothe, hydrate, detoxify, and offer an antioxidant boost all at once.
This new product addresses the issues around excessive consumption in one of the most effective ways.
- It's mainly a 6-in-1 Treatment, but its suitable for the entire body. You can also use it as a HAND and FOOT mask.
- It is also 100% waterless, completely customisable, and made with biodegradable ingredients including not just one, but two upcycled ingredients diverted from food waste! (Discarded charcoal derived from sustainable oak fencing offcuts & misshapen white rice)
Key Ingredients:
Turmeric, Aleo Vera, Vitamin C, Coconut Milk, Charcoal, Rice, Liquorice and Orange peel extracts.
Sustainable Features:
-Upcycled Ingredients
Do you know that if food waste were a country it would be the 3rd largest emitter of greenhouse gases (after China & the USA)? The UK alone produces an estimated 14 million tonnes of food waste each year, according to the European Commission.
My brand is always focused on reducing waste and avoiding unnecessary consumption. Therefore, I always strive to rescue by-products from other industries – the food and drink industry in particular.
This new formula utilises discarded charcoal derived from oak fencing offcuts and rice extracts made from misshapen white rice. As always, you get Superfoods for your skin, which are SuperGood for the planet.
-Waterless
Why this new product is waterless?
Water doesn’t absorb into your skin and it doesn’t hydrate you. It’s just diluting down the good ingredients.
That’s why we don’t include any water. And because our products aren’t watered down, they’re incredibly potent, which means you can use less product each time.
''Let's empower more people to declutter complicated beauty routines and show the beauty industry that it is certainly possible to make beauty rituals less wasteful and more results-driven''.

- Cabbage, Cranberry, Hemp Deep Cleansing Oil & Makeup Remover (3-in-1 for Face, Eyes and Lips)
WHY DO WE SAY OUR MULTI-USE CORK BAGS ARE THE MOST ECO-FRIENDLY OPTION TO REDUCE PLASTIC WASTE DURING THE HOLIDAY SEASON?
Our Multi-use Gifting Bags will be made of Cork, which is one of the most sustainable and versatile raw material out there.
Production Process
It all starts in the forest. It doesn't harm the tree, and the cork bark regrows. In fact, during regrowth, it absorbs up to 5 times more CO2 from the environment.
- The year of harvest is marked on the trunk, so each tree isn't harvested at the wrong time.
- Throughout the production process, absolutely nothing is wasted. All waste is returned to the production process, making cork harvesting and production one of the most sustainable business practices on the planet.
Next steps.
If you've made it this far down, you're awesome! Hopefully we've convinced you that this is a worthwhile business and tempted you with our scrumptious rewards. So there's only one thing left to do.
