5 ESSENTIAL TIPS FOR SOFTER, SMOOTHER HANDS
During the height of COVID-19, hand care became a top priority as frequent washing and sanitising took centre stage. While those days are long behind us, they did leave us with a deeper understanding of the importance of self-care—especially for our hands. Our hardworking hands are often overlooked despite facing exposure to harsh cleaning ingredients, chemicals, and environmental stressors. Now is the perfect time to check in and make sure your hand care ritual is keeping your hands soft and nourished. Here’s how to do it in five easy steps. USE A GENTLE BUT EFFECTIVE HAND WASH Frequent hand washing is essential, but harsh soaps can strip your skin, leaving it dry and irritated. Opt for gentle, PH-balanced formulas like Jurlique Rose Hand Wash, enriched with Rosa gallica extract and natural botanicals that cleanse without drying. Its uplifting rose scent also adds a touch of relaxation to your daily ritual. Tip: Wash your hands for at least 30 seconds, paying special attention to your fingertips and between your fingers. EXFOLIATE TO REMOVE DRY SKIN We often overlook exfoliating our hands, but regular exfoliation can help remove dead skin cells, leaving your hands softer, smoother and more receptive to hydrating products. Tip: Next time you exfoliate your face or body, don't let the leftover formula go to waste. Massage it into your hands and cuticles to gently exfoliate dry skin. Alternatively, mix half a teaspoon of sugar with your favourite body oil to create a quick, hydrating hand scrub. USE OILS TO NOURISH DRY SKIN & CUTICLES Our hands are constantly exposed to drying elements, making oils an ideal solution to hydrate and soothe tougher areas like cuticles and nail beds. Natural oils absorb quickly to restore moisture without leaving a greasy residue. Tip: To keep your hands and cuticles soft and healthy-looking, try massaging a few drops of your favourite face oil, like our Rare Rose Face Oil. APPLY HAND CREAM REGULARLY Frequent washing and daily tasks can strip your hands of moisture, leaving them dry and vulnerable. A nourishing hand cream is essential to keep your hands hydrated, soft, and protected from environmental aggressors throughout the day. While moisture is key, remember to choose a cream rich in antioxidants to help shield your skin from environmental aggressors. Tip: Gently massage hands for a moment of self-care throughout the day. Use circular motions to release tension in your palms, knead each finger and the spaces between them, and finish with soothing strokes along the back of your hand. Choose a fragrance you love to elevate your ritual and awaken your senses. DON'T FORGET SUNSCREEN Many of us are diligent about applying sunscreen to our faces but often forget about our hands. However, hands are one of the first areas to show signs of sun damage, including dark spots and premature ageing. Since hands are regularly exposed to sunlight through everyday activities—whether driving, walking or relaxing at the beach—they require the same level of protection. Tip: Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF to your hands daily to shield them from harmful UV rays and keep them looking youthful and radiant. Building a hand care routine doesn’t have to be complicated. With these simple steps and the right products, you can maintain smooth, hydrated, and healthy-looking hands that feel as good as they look.

Our 2025 collection features the winning design from our annual art competition, a beautiful tradition that's blossomed into its second year. A GLOBAL CELEBRATION OF CREATIVITY Our 2025 Mother's Day art competition was an inspiring journey that connected the wider Jurlique community around the globe.

Her artwork beautifully captures the essence of motherhood and the beauty of our farm-grown botanicals. It feels especially meaningful to see the winning piece come from the same land where our biodynamic* farm thrives, and Jurlique's journey began 40 years ago. HILARY SHEEDY Hilary Sheedy's artwork is a stunning representation of her own experiences and memories shared with her mother. "I created this artwork in Adobe Illustrator, using the paint feature. My inspiration came from a few different bunches of flowers that Mum and I had exchanged over the last few Mother's Days and birthdays," she explains. "My mum was once a florist, so flowers have always been her number one present for giving and receiving! Each bouquet holds a special memory, and I wanted to capture the essence of those moments in my artwork." Her design is a heartfelt tribute to the nurturing spirit and the small yet significant acts of love that mothers embody. CELEBRATING MOTHER'S DAY As we celebrate Mother's Day this year, Hilary's artwork reminds us of the beauty in nurturing and the joy in simple, meaningful moments. It captures the delicate balance of care and creativity that mums and mother figures bring into our lives every day.

COMBATING EXPOSOMES AND SKIN AGEING
Reducing your fine lines and wrinkles doesn’t happen overnight – just like experiencing skin ageing, it’s a gradual process that unfolds over time. When life gets busy, our skin is impacted by daily environmental and lifestyle factors, leading to visible signs of stress, dullness and premature ageing. These stressors are known as exposomes and understanding their connection to skin ageing can empower you to combat them effectively. WHAT CAUSES SKIN AGEING? Exposomes are environmental and lifestyle factors that affect skin health over time. This can include lack of sleep, poor nutrition, changes in temperature and general everyday stress. These factors can contribute to skin ageing. While some of these factors are unavoidable, it helps to use skincare products that revitalise and support the skin to fight free radicals. That’s why we created the Herbal Recovery Range – nature’s remedy to revitalised skin. Harnessing potent farm-grown botanicals that help your skin respond to lifestyle stressors, it features our exclusive Jurlique Recovery Blend: four farm-grown botanical actives rich in antioxidative and adaptogenic qualities to support the skin moisture barrier. Dermatologically tested, the products are clean and ethically formulated, with 98% natural origin ingredients+ and an energising fragrance that takes you on a sensorial journey. STAR PRODUCT: HERBAL RECOVERY BI-PHASE SERUM Now available in a new 50mL size, the Herbal Recovery Bi-Phase Serum harnesses a 2:8 oil-water ratio, combining a nourishing oil phase that locks in moisture with a water phase featuring Hyaluronic Acid to hydrate skin. Clinically proven to smooth the appearance of fine lines****, it also gives skin a 10.4% boost in overall suppleness***. At the heart of the serum is our exclusive Jurlique Recovery Blend – four farm-grown botanicals that help skin respond to stress.

WHY YOU SHOULD DOUBLE CLEANSE YOUR SKIN
In recent times, many beauty publications have touted double cleansing as a major breakthrough in skin care. If you’re thinking about jumping on the double cleansing bandwagon, wondering how double cleansing differs from regular cleansing or what the real skin benefits are, you’ve come to the right place. Read on to discover the answer to your questions and more. What is double cleansing? Double cleansing, like many of our now ingrained skin care methods, originated in South Korea and Japan. Essentially, double cleansing is cleansing your skin twice. A technique that involves using two different types of cleansers after one another to deeply remove all traces of makeup, sunscreen, sweat and other surface debris from your face. What are the benefits of double cleansing? 1. While cleansing your skin twice doesn’t sound like the kind of party your skin wants to attend because of the “stripping” nature of cleansing, double cleansing really gets to work and ensures that you remove every last bit of surface debris, dead skin cells and impurities that can cause skin break outs, inflammation and irritation.2. Using two different types of products to double cleanse (we’ll hash this out in a moment) means that you’re not only removing surface build-up and gunk, but you’re also getting deep down into your pores to remove pollutants – making your cleansing ritual far more effective.3. If you wear makeup daily, then this one’s for you. Double cleansing helps break down your makeup so that you’re not scrubbing at your skin or using an excess of harsh makeup wipes. There’s no more dreading removing your makeup after a long day.4. As a result of effectively cleaning your pores, another benefit is an overall more radiant, less congested, even skin tone. Clarified pores = healthier looking skin. Double cleansing method Here’s the fun part. In order to double cleanse, all you need is: an oil cleanser, a muslin cloth or face towel, and a cream, lotion, gel or foam cleanser that suits your skin type. Once you’ve got all your tools, follow the steps below:1. Massage 2-3 pumps of your oil cleanser (we recommend our Nourishing Cleansing Oil) onto dry skin including the eye area using circular motions.2. Next you can either wet your muslin cloth, face cloth or face towel with warm water, wring out the excess water and then place the cloth onto your face gently to swipe away the product. Or as you add warm water to the Nourishing Cleansing Oil once applied - on contact with water - the oil transforms into a rich cleansing milk that hydrates and softens the skin as it removes makeup including waterproof mascara, excess oil, pollution and impurities.3. After rinsing/swiping away the emulsified oil, it’s time to cleanse with your regular cream, lotion, gel or foam cleanser and rinse off as normal. Choosing a second cleanser As always, be sure to choose a cleanser that suits your skin type. Keep in mind with double cleansing, your regular cleansing product isn’t doing all the work alone. Gentle cleansing products will suffice and reduce any unnecessary stripping of your skin. Here are our recommendations:Dry skin:If you have dry and sensitive skin, go for our Replenishing Cleansing Lotion. It calms and conditions the skin. Featuring Marshmallow Root and Calendula Extracts, your skin will be clean and soothed.Mature skin:Go for an anti-ageing cleanser like our Nutri-Define Supreme Cleansing Foam for mature skin. With its rich and luxurious texture, it’ll be a treat for your skin after your oil cleanser step as jojoba beads gently exfoliate to reveal a youthfully luminous complexion.Blemish prone skin:Blemish prone skin is also usually associated with oily skin. So, you want something that balances the skin. Our Revitalising Cleansing Gel is perfect as its key ingredients of Peppermint Leaf Extract and Rosemary Leaf Extract soothe the skin while rebalancing oiliness.Combination skin:Combination skin needs to be simultaneously hydrated and balanced. Our Radiant Skin Foaming Cleanser is perfect for all skin types and is the go-to for combination skin. A powerful blend of antioxidant-rich botanicals leaves skin thoroughly cleansed and protected, but not dry or tight. Frequently Asked Questions Do I need to double cleanse in the morning?Yes! You might think your skin is clean enough from the night before, but your skin still produces grime and sweat while you sleep. By double cleansing, you’re creating a clean slate for your morning skin care and/or makeup routine.Will double cleansing make my skin oiler?No. While oil cleansers are made from oils, they don’t necessarily add more oil to your face. The purpose of oil cleanser is to lift away skin surface debris – this includes excess oil. This means your skin balances out and the production of oil and on your skin rebalances itself. Also, if you follow up with your regular cleanser, the oil cleaner washes away and doesn’t remain on your skin.Can I use coconut oil or olive as an oil cleanser?It would be great to cost-wise. However, coconut oil and olive oil are comedogenic. Meaning they clog your pores instead of cleaning them. Unlike our Nourishing Cleansing Oil which emulsifies, other oils don’t combine with water so they end up sitting on top of your skin. Cleansing oils are specifically designed to cleanse your skin, so it’s safer to steer clear of coconut and olive oil to cleanse.Double cleansing is a relatively straight forward skin care technique that really gives you noticeable results and improves the effectiveness of the products in your skin care ritual.

JOURNEY TO THE JAR: THE STORY OF OUR ROSE
You might call the Rose “queen of the botanicals”, such is its popularity and regard. Our particular matriarch is the species Rosa gallica. Nine varieties of Rosa gallica grow on our organic farm in the Adelaide hills of South Australia, their blooms spanning a spectrum of shades, but their properties and intoxicating scent identical. This is the story of the queen of botanicals and her journey from first planting to taking centre stage in our nourishing skin care. Step 1 | South Australian provenance Adelaide is the Rose capital of Australia, thanks in large part to its climate – hot in summer and with plenty of rain throughout winter – which is ideal for growing Roses. Nutrient-rich soil and pure, unpolluted air are some of the most important qualities of our farm and to capitalise on this pristine environment, we follow organic growing methods, keeping the farm free from synthetic fertilisers, pesticides and insecticides. Step 2 | Plant partners Planting is meticulously planned so that all our botanicals can work symbiotically to protect each other from harm. Our Roses are planted beside Yarrow, which nourishes and protects them from predatory insects. Step 3 | Hand-picking petals Harvesting begins in November each year, and our Roses are gently picked by hand when at their peak. Between November and February, we harvest 30 to 60 kilograms of Rose petals each week. Some weeks, when we’ve had particularly good weather, the Roses grow extra quickly and we can harvest up to 100 kilograms of petals per week. Step 4 | Next comes drying The Rose petals are laid flat on large racks and placed in our heated drying cupboards for five to six days. The dried petals can be stored for up to three years without diminishing their active ingredients. Rose is a key ingredient in many of our products, so it’s important that we always have a continuous supply. Step 5 | Extracting the nutrients To unlock the nutrients within the Rose, each petal goes through our exclusive extraction process. This proprietary process captures the pure, potent and active essential nutrients and minerals from the plants. This precious Rose extract is then transported to our nearby Natural Beauty Plant, which was developed in line with our culture of sustainability. Step 6 | The products you love Here at the Natural Beauty Plant, the Rosa gallica extract becomes the hero ingredient in many of our most loved products, including our bestselling Rare Rose Lotion and Rose Hand Cream. As well as imparting its divine scent, this botanical beauty helps hydrate dry skin, leaving it feeling soft and supple.

HOW TO REVEAL RADIANT SKIN WITH JURLIQUE RARE ROSE EXTRACT
For thousands of years, the rose has been one of the most iconic flowers in the world. Favoured for its beautiful fragrance and known for its unique healing properties, the rose remains a favourite in the beauty and skincare industry today. Jurlique has cultivated roses in the pristine Adelaide Hills for over 35 years. Developed in collaboration with renowned rose breeder George Thomson, our exclusive Jurlique rose is a hybrid of 3 different rose breeds with a large, soft pink flower, delicate scent and powerful botanical benefits. Selected as the star ingredient of our Rare Rose range, the Jurlique Rose helps provide superior hydration throughout the day. Over the years, Jurlique has developed advanced technology methods to capture and magnify the unique properties of our Rare Rose.

Using this method, we are now able to capture a higher concentration of the Rare Rose powerful extract that has been proven to improve skin barrier function and help retain essential moisture while restoring suppleness and elasticity for plump, smooth and glowing skin. And for the first time, its delicate rose fragrance has been proven to help reduce the effects of the stress hormone cortisol, helping to calm the body and mind. Discover Jurlique’s Exclusive Bio-Intrinsic™ method Exclusive to Jurlique, this three-step process extracts and recombines high‐performing ingredients from our dried botanicals to further intensify their skin benefits. Using an ancient alchemistic process of purification, intensification and ashing, components are extracted and reunited to create a high-potency extract for maximum skincare benefits. Rose Droplet Technology The hydrating benefits of rose extract are taken a step further with Jurlique's breakthrough delivery system. Rose Oil extract is encapsulated deep into the core of a natural cellulose microcapsule delivery system (Microsponge™). And when these microcapsules make contact with the skin, they slowly release the Jurlique Rose extract, allowing it to boost and maintain moisture levels and radiance over 24 hours. Rare Rose Ritual The Rare Rose ritual harnesses the power of Jurlique's exclusive Rare Rose extract to deliver long-lasting hydration for glowing, supple and silky-smooth skin. Begin your Rare Rose Ritual with Rare Rose Serum, following with our brand new superpowered Rare Rose Face Oil. This glow-boosting face oil helps relax the mind while leaving skin hydrated, soft and glowing. For an extra-boost of moisture, follow with lightweight lotion or luxurious Rare Rose Cream that uses Rose Droplet technology to provide long-lasting hydration. As a final step in your Rare Rose Ritual, use Jurlique's new Hydrating Mask for the perfect express or overnight self-care treatment, providing skin with an intense boost of hydration and radiance.*Based on an in vitro study conducted by POLA Chemicals of the intercellular adhesion in HLEC and HUVEC. **Based on an in vivo study conducted by POLA Chemicals of the cortisol level in saliva before and after smelling the fragrance based on 32 participants.
