Natural Skin Care

We're obsessed with the best truly natural skin care at Biome. These days there are many Australian skincare brands claiming to be organic, natural, or clean beauty. But what does that really mean because there is no regulation of those terms.  That's why Biome has the strictest standards of any natural skin care products store in Australia.  

We carefully vet all our natural beauty products so that you can be confident of no toxins, plus the values you're shopping for - vegan, Australian made, certified organic, certified cruelty free, and palm oil free.

No natural skincare greenwashing

Firstly, the natural skincare products that we stock are effective and work to take care of your skin!  We don't buy into any guff about anti-aging or anti-wrinkles or pseudo science of chemical names you can't pronounce. There's full transparency from our natural skin care brands: only plants, no petrochemicals, free from all toxins, synthetic preservatives, and synthetic fragrances; full ingredient disclosure; and verification of any claims such as organic and cruelty free.

For more information on our ingredient standards see 30+ Toxins and Harmful Ingredients You Will Not Find at Biome and Our Stance On Palm Oil.

Are natural skin care products effective?

They absolutely can be effective! Of course, as with conventional petrochemical based skin care, it depends on the quality of the ingredients. There are still cheap natural skin care products full of water and fillers that make you think you are getting a bargain, when in fact the beneficial ingredients are too diluted. The most effective natural skin care products have close to nature ingredients, some are even simply 100% pure oils, so that maximum nutrients and nourishment are available to assist your skin. Biome Be.UNITY skin care range is a great example of pure concentrated ingredients.

How do I start natural skin care?

As always at Biome, we recommend using up what you have and changing as you need to replace. It is perfectly fine to mix brands for your cleanser, toner, moisturiser, exfoliant, etc. Don't fooled into thinking you need a "regime" from just one brand. To be frank, most brands use very similar ingredients, and saying they work together is marketing guff.

What is the best natural skin care for teenage skin?

Started to notice signs of oily skin and acne on your teen? This is all completely natural as they progress through adolescence, but it can be stressful for young people as they chart a way through this time. A basic natural skin care routine is the best start, so they do not assail their skin with synthetic chemicals, fragrances and preservatives that cause additional irritation and redness. At Biome, we have compiled the best natural skincare choices suitable for teenage skin and tweens.

All of these choices happen to be Australian-made, palm oil free and cruelty free. Particularly important for skin care for teenagers is that these choices are free from harsh, petrochemical-derived ingredients, synthetic fragrances and preservatives.

Going hand in hand with a good skincare routine is a healthy diet, rich in vegetables and fruit, drinking plenty of water and getting daily fresh air and exercise. Getting into the habit of applying sunscreen daily is also important for teens taking care of their skin.

Is natural skin care more expensive?

We care about your natural beauty budget because we know you want to make a difference in an affordable way. We even teach you how to make natural skin care products with our DIY skin care recipes because natural skincare does not need to be complicated, nor expensive.

We believe that natural skin is not more expensive, especially when you purchase high quality concentrated products (not watered down), and with simple close to nature ingredients.

There is no need to buy multiple products with supposedly "active" ingredients, that increase the price that brands think they can charge. Glowing skin also comes from a healthy diet, drinking plenty of water, getting enough sleep, using a gentle cleanser, applying a simple, clean moisturiser, and occasionally exfoliating.

For natural skin care products in Australia, we need to protect our face and the skin all over our body with natural sunscreen.

Does skin care contain palm oil?

Most natural skin care products contain 'synthetic' ingredients that started as a plant source (often palm oil) about five chemical processes ago, plus synthetic petroleum-derived fragrances and preservatives!  At Biome we champion close to nature ingredients that are always palm oil free. Hidden behind 100's of chemical names, palm oil is decimating forests and animals but because it is a plant oil brands claim it is 'kind for the planet and you'!  That's why at Biome cruelty free and vegan skin care means no palm oil too.
