OUR NEW SPACE

October 09, 2022 3 min read

So by now, you’ve probably heard from our social media, or past emails that we have been renovating and moving into a new space on King St in Newcastle’s CBD. It’s taken us a month of renovating. Starting with removing the previous tenants broken furniture, old carpet, and rubbish. Then we divideD the space into the 5 main areas.

 

 Firstly we have the shop front. It’s a little smaller than our previous stores, we were always fluffing out those spaces with extra gift boxes or plants. Our shop front now is completely functional and easy to navigate.

BLUE TANSY OIL

September 25, 2022 3 min read

Our new range of face oils is almost here and I CANNOT wait for you guys to see and use them! The next specialised ingredient I want to talk about is Blue Tansy Oil. Blue tansy, which is actually yellow in colour and was once a wild-harvested Mediterranean plant, is now primarily grown in Morocco. Blue Tansy Flowers are part of the chamomile family (and also known as Moroccan chamomile). The flower was nearly wiped off in the wild as the demand for beauty goods skyrocketed. Despite the fact that supplies are continuously growing nowadays, it remains one among the more expensive essential oils. It can cost more than $100 for a 2-ounce bottle. Tanacetum annuum has yellow flowers. Its thin leaves have a delicate white "hair" on them. The oil's high camphor concentration gives it a pleasant, herbal scent.

WATERMELON SEED OIL IS VERY GOOD FOR YOUR SKIN

September 18, 2022 2 min read

We’ve been teasing for the last 6 months that we have some special new products in research and development and we are getting very close to launching them! We have a line of face oils and serums coming, with one to suit every skin’s desire. So developing face oils has required a lot of research into what we want to use that fits with the Scrubba Body ethos as well as being super effective with clinically proven results. We’ve learnt a lot during this journey and even me, who follows skin care news like a religion, has delved deep into new ingredients I’ve not heard of. Starting with Watermelon Seed Oil. It comes from, you guessed it, a watermelon seeds! Watermelon seed oil is a fine, light oil that absorbs quickly, and penetrates deeply into skin. It contains a multitude of nutrients that are incredibly beneficial for skin, health, and beauty, including linoleic and oleic acid, omega 3, 6, and 9 fatty acids, Vitamin A, B, and E, and a host of minerals, including magnesium, iron, copper, and potassium.

IS MEN'S SKINCARE DIFFERENT TO WOMEN'S?

September 04, 2022 1 min read

It’s Father’s Day and today I wanted to answer a question that I’ve been asked Are separate skin care products really necessary for men and women? Another option is to declare all skin care to be unisex and call it a day.

Men's skin care is currently all the rage. But do men's-only skin care products (or entire skin care lines) really need to address the differences between male and female skin? ⁠⁠
