So, is green the new black? “no, green is life” according to Jurlique CEO Eli Halliwell.  When people say, green is the new black, it implies that going green is a trend and therefore temporary and trivial.  Halliwell instead sees the change to green as a shift in thinking.  People are more aware than ever that we are at a critical time in our natural timeline. 

The ironic part is, we’re heading back to the way things were done so long ago.  Composting, preserving, reducing waste by reuse which segways into paying more attention to what we eat, drink and wear. Nature is efficient, it disposes of that which it does not need and renews itself perpetually.  So it’s no surprise that more and more people want to learn how to live Biodynamically and in sync with nature.

Essential Oils are so powerful they should not be applied directly to the skin, irritation and rash are among other more serious consequences.  They can induce labor (cumin), cool your body (peppermint), warm your body (black pepper essential oil) and much more.    In learning more, we will shed the bad ingredients that threaten our health and well being and find new and exciting products that are just as beautifully packaged and desirable as their poison laden counterparts. 

The old ideas of marketing skincare have to be changed as well.  When asked if Jurlique had an anti-aging line, Halliwell said that he found the term disingenuous and that it invites death.  At the same time, Jurlique could meet or beat anti-aging products on the market. 

Jurlique is the “alternative beauty company that believes beauty comes from beauty”.

Rosie Jane Poppy Cheek Gloss

May 1st, 2008 · 4 Comments

RosieJane Cheek glossooh how I love the packaging of this little product!  that bow is just too much, amazing little present for a girlfriend.  Rosie Jane Cheek Gloss comes in the cutest little white compact with mirror.  The idea is to have a little color on cheeks that isn’t dry which is great for a day where you don’t really want to wear make up.  Luv the Cheek Gloss on the lips for a look that defines lips without looking like you’re wearing anything. The scent is beach-y suntan lotion eau de coconut so it may make you crave sand.  Check out more product reviews and get the best industry news from CEW.
