6 Australian Beauty Brands You Need to Know
Evo
This environmentally friendly Aussie brand delivers perfectly messy, beachy hair without compromising your strands thanks to their paraben- sulfate-free formulas. For surfer-girl bounce, flip your hair upside down, and spray some evo root canal volumizing spray at your roots. (To add even more lift, use a hair dryer and tousle your hair until its about 70% dry.)
Davroe
Looking for a natural, vegan, and cruelty-free hair care routine? Look no further than Davroe, which believes that natural ingredients can yield the best results. No matter your hair type or concern, the brands unique combination of plant-derived ingredients will shield your hair against stressors like heat, sun damage, and salt water. Their Davroe Ends Repair is a favorite for a reason: Enriched with rice and wheat proteins, it repairs and strengthens your hair, preventing split ends and helping your strands grow longer and healthier.
ModelCo
This iconic brand is known for sharing the bliss of Australias sunshine with the rest of the world. Their ModelCo Instant Tan Self-Tan Lotion is a favorite among celebrities like Victoria Beckham, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, and Sienna Miller, but thats just the start: Founder Shelley Barretts years of experience with makeup artists, stylists, and models have been crucial for developing their innovative, multitasking, and PETA-certified makeup formulas, like ModelCo Lip Enhancer Illusion Lip Liner, which gives you fuller-looking lips and keeps them nourished for hours.
Cargo
Bringing together the quality and innovation of professional makeup with easy-to-wear products, Cargo is a makeup minimalists dream come true. Proof is in the variety of beach-ready, long-lasting formulas they carry, from the Cargo Swimmables Shadow Stick Trio to their best-seller Cargo Swimmables Resistant Bronzer in Medium. Even better, all their products are cruelty-free, and several are both vegan-friendly and 100% natural.
Raw Spirit Fragrances
This sustainable, socially-conscious fragrance brand is about much more than just making you smell great. (But they do that, too.) Through their environmental preservation and rehabilitation initiatives, Raw Spirit Fragrances has worked to create new opportunities for indigenous and marginalized communities around the globe (a portion of product sales supports these projects). We recommend spritzing on their romantic Desert Blush Eau de Parfum Rollerball, which combines the sweet, citrusy aroma from boronia (a blossom shrub native to Australia) and the seductiveness from sandalwood, violets, jasmine, and musk.
Jurlique
Lets not forget glowing skin! Famous for their organic and biodynamic formulas, Jurlique is Australias top prestige skincare brand. Amongst their most beloved products is Jurlique Rosewater Balancing Mist, a refreshing mist that hydrates and balances your skin while soothing irritation with a delicious combination of aloe and marshmallow extract.
