A TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE: 40 YEARS OF FARM-GROWN SKINNOVATION
A HISTORY OF INNOVATION AND MILESTONES 1985-1990 | THE BEGGINING OF A DREAM Jurlique was born in 1985 when Dr Jurgen and Ulrike Klein set out to create pure, natural skincare inspired by the healing power of nature. They found the perfect home for their vision in the unspoiled Adelaide Hills, where they established their first biodynamic* herb farm. Their philosophy, built on three core principles—purity, integrity, and care—has shaped the brand we know today. By 1987, Jurlique’s dedication to farm-grown botanicals led to the opening of a purpose-built facility in Mount Barker, producing herbal skincare and therapeutic oils. It was the beginning of a skincare revolution powered by nature. 1991-2000 | ICONIC PRODUCTS, GLOBAL GROWTH & OLYMPIC PARTNERSHIPS The 1990s saw Jurlique take bold steps forward. We opened our first concept stores in Adelaide and Melbourne in 1991. And just two years later, we launched our now iconic Rosewater Balancing Mist and Herbal Recovery Serum, loved by skincare enthusiasts around the world. Our global reach expanded with flagship stores in Singapore and Japan, while wellness spas and treatments became central to our identity. In 1995, Jurlique was commissioned to create the Blue Cypress Oil for the Olympics. We were also named the official wellness partner for the Atlanta Olympics in 1996 and the Sydney Olympics in 2000, providing over 2,500 rejuvenating treatments to over 10000 athletes from 199 nations—a milestone that solidified our international presence. 2001-2010 | SUSTAINABILITY & PRODUCT INNOVATION To support growing global demand, in 2005, we relocated to a 105-acre farm in Mylor, reaffirming our commitment to biodynamic* farming. Our efforts earned NASAA organic certification in 2006, highlighting our dedication to sustainable and chemical-free farming practices. By 2010, we celebrated our 25th anniversary with limited-edition rose products, paying homage to the botanical heritage that shaped our brand. 2011-2020 | GIVING BACK TO THE LAND & COMMUNITY In 2012, we launched our Tree Planting Day, planting over 15,000 native trees to improve local ecosystems and provide natural protection for our farm. This initiative reinforced our mission to give back to the land more than we take from it. In 2015, we released the Precious Rose Hand Cream, featuring Rosa gallica extract, to celebrate our 30th anniversary. Innovation continued with the launch of Activating Water Essence+ and Rare Rose Face Oil, expanding our portfolio of botanical-rich hydration products. In 2020, we contributed to South Australia’s bushfire recovery, donating 3,000 tree seedlings to restore affected areas. And, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Jurlique supported frontline workers by donating over 43,000 products worldwide—an expression of our care and gratitude. 2021-PRESENT | MILESTONES & CELEBRATIONS In 2023, we relaunched our Aromatherapy range, pairing sustainable packaging with botanical-rich formulations. A year later, we revitalised the Herbal Recovery range and introduced Calendula Face Oil, continuing our journey of innovation in natural-based skincare. In 2024, we reached one of our proudest milestones by becoming B Corp certified, meeting the highest standards of social and environmental performance, transparency and accountability. This year, we marked our anniversary with the introduction of the Intense Rose—a stunning new bloom cultivated on our biodynamic farm*. Featured in our limited edition Intense Rose Hand Cream and Mist, it symbolises our evolution and commitment to crafting skincare that nurtures both the skin and soul. LOOKING TO THE FUTURE As we move forward, Jurlique is dedicated to advancing sustainability and innovation through our four core pillars: Planet, Partner, People, and Product. Our B Corp certification reinforces these commitments as we continue to drive positive change within the beauty industry and beyond. Our vision for the future includes expanding our farm-grown actives, advancing natural skin science, and enhancing our impact on both the planet and our communities. With every new product, we honour our heritage while pushing the boundaries of conscious beauty—rooted in tradition yet blooming with endless possibilities.

MEET OUR NEWEST BLOOM: THE INTENSE ROSE
INTRODUCING OUR NEWEST FARM-GROWN ROSE INNOVATION For four decades, roses have been at the heart of our skincare expertise, cultivated with care on our biodynamic* farm in the pristine Adelaide Hills. Co-founder Ulrike Klein once described roses as “the queen of plants when it comes to skincare,” a belief that has guided our commitment to unlocking the power of this iconic bloom. To celebrate our 40-year journey, we set out to cultivate a new rose that would honour our rose heritage while bringing a fresh era of botanical innovation. In collaboration with renowned rose breeder George Thomson, we are proud to introduce our latest farm-grown innovation: the Intense Rose. A NEW CHAPTER IN OUR ROSE HERITAGE The Intense Rose is a remarkable addition to our rose family, joining a lineage that includes Ruby, a resilient climber; Rhapsody in Blue, a bold modern rose; and Charles de Mills, an elegant old garden variety. With its small prickles, large, vibrant petals that shift from deep red to near-blue hues and deep yet delicate fragrance, the Intense Rose is one of a kind, cultivated exclusively on our biodynamic* farm. THE LEGACY OF GEORGE THOMSON The Intense Rose is a heartfelt tribute to the late George Thomson, a celebrated rose breeder who dedicated his life to developing resilient, breathtaking roses suited to the Australian climate. George’s collaboration with Jurlique began in 2015 when he bred the iconic Jurlique Rose, the hero of our Rare Rose Range. His final masterpiece, the Intense Rose, celebrates his legacy. His passion and expertise will continue to inspire botanical innovation at Jurlique for years to come. A BLOOMING FUTURE FOR SKINCARE In celebration of our 40th anniversary, we’ve reimagined our bestselling hand cream and mist with the addition of our exclusive Intense Rose. Our limited-edition Intense Rose Hand Cream and Intense Rose Balancing Mist combine this rare bloom with farm-grown actives to hydrate and soften, enveloping skin in velvety comfort and a delicate rose scent. But the story doesn’t end here. The Intense Rose is just the beginning of the next chapter in our skincare innovation. You’ll be seeing more of this incredible bloom in the future. Don’t miss out — discover our limited-edition Intense Rose Hand Cream and Balancing Mist. *Certified biodynamic by the National Association for Sustainable Agriculture, Australia.

HOW TO NATURALLY LIFT AND TIGHTEN FACE & NECK SKIN
As we age, our bodies and faces naturally begin to change. You may notice that the once-tight skin around your eyes, mouth, jawline and neck has begun to lose its youthful firmness — that’s perfectly normal. The good news is that there are steps you can take to age gracefully and maintain firmer skin as you do. In this guide, we take a look at what causes saggy skin, how you can prevent it and face and skin tightening treatments that can help you achieve a firmer, more youthful appearance. What Causes Sagging Skin? Loose or sagging skin occurs when skin loses its elasticity and firmness, leading to a drooping or wrinkled appearance. Several factors can cause saggy skin, including: Ageing As skin ages, it naturally produces less collagen and elastin, two important proteins responsible for structural support and elasticity. Research shows that after age 20, the dermis produces about 1% less collagen each year. Over time, this loss adds up, and your skin loses its structural integrity, leaving you with a sagging face. Years of Sun Exposure Years of sun exposure can take a toll on your skin, especially if you skimp on sunscreen. Prolonged sun exposure breaks down collagen and elastin fibres, which can exacerbate sagging and cause wrinkles to appear earlier than anticipated. Weight Loss Losing weight can be a bittersweet win for your skin. If you drop a significant amount, like 45 kg or more, you might find it tough for your skin to bounce back. As we get older, our skin naturally loses some of its elasticity, which definitely doesn’t make things easier after a major weight loss. Illness and Medical Conditions Some medical conditions can make the skin saggy. One such condition is granulomatous slack skin, a rare subtype of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. How to Tighten Skin Naturally If you’ve noticed a bit of sagging around your face and neck, there are things you can do to help firm it up. Firming Skincare Products A daily skincare routine with creams and serums specifically targeting a loss of volume can help tighten skin on face. Look for products containing peptides, hyaluronic acid, retinoids, niacinamide and vitamin C to help boost collagen production and improve skin elasticity. Don’t forget to apply sunscreen to protect your skin from the sun’s harmful rays. Our Age-Defying Skincare Range is packed with youth-restoring botanicals like spilanthes flower, horseradish root, rock samphire, tara fruit, red algae extracts and naturally derived forms of hyaluronic acid, which help to smooth, firm and restore skin naturally. Exercise Building muscle helps strengthen your ‘frame,’ which can provide better support for your skin and help reduce sagging. Strength training stimulates muscle fibre growth and increases density, creating a firmer, more defined structure beneath the skin. Although scientific evidence is limited, many beauty experts swear by face exercises, or ‘face yoga.’ Like any kind of workout for your body, face yoga can help tone your face and strengthen your facial muscles. Techniques like the ‘cheek puff,’ ‘forehead push’ and ‘neck tilts’ can subtly lift the jawline and neck. Skin Massage Treating your face and neck to a gentle massage, especially when paired with tools like a jade roller or gua sha, can help reduce that pesky puffiness, improve blood circulation, helping to leave you with a firmer, lifted look. We recommend applying a facial oil like our Purely Age-Defying Firming Face Oil beforehand, just to minimise any skin stretching. Lifestyle Change Skin laxity is inevitable as we age. But what if we told you that there are lifestyle changes that could help roll back the clock on skin ageing? That’s right. Simple daily habits, like moisturising and wearing sunscreen, can visibly improve your skin’s health and appearance. Discover our complete range of face skincare, including moisturisers, sunscreen, cleansers, essences, serums, face oils, masks, eye care, lip care, hand care, body care and products for dull, uneven skin tone. And it’s not just about what you put on your skin either. Eating healthy, staying hydrated, getting enough sleep and keeping stress levels down can lead to fresher, younger-looking skin. Making good choices like drinking in moderation or quitting smoking can also make a big difference over time. What Is the Best Skin Tightening Treatment? If you’re wondering how to tighten face skin instantly, cosmetic procedures like chemical peels, laser treatments and ultrasound therapy may deliver quicker results. For advanced sagging, you could consider minimally invasive treatments like fillers, micro-needling with radiofrequency or PRP. Just a heads-up, though — these might involve needles, some downtime and may be pricier than at-home treatments. Consult a board-certified dermatologist to help determine the best skin tightening treatment plan for your skin type and health. What causes sagging skin on the face and neck? One of the most common causes of loose skin is the loss of collagen and elastin, two proteins essential for maintaining skin firmness and elasticity. As we age, we naturally lose these proteins, and of course, things like sun damage and unhealthy lifestyle accelerate that. Less collagen and elastin means the skin is less able to snap back into place after being stretched, which leads to sagging and loose skin. How to tighten skin on face and neck? If you’ve noticed that your skin isn’t quite as firm as it used to be, there are steps you could take to help improve firmness and plump your skin. At home, you can start with firming skincare products that contain collagen-boosting ingredients such as peptides, retinol, hyaluronic acid, niacinamide and vitamin C. Facial massage with your hands or tools like gua sha or jade rollers can get the blood flowing and throwing in some facial exercises, or ‘face yoga,’ can also strengthen and tone the muscles underneath. A healthy lifestyle plays a big role too. Eat collagen-rich foods like berries and leafy greens, stay hydrated, get enough sleep, exercise regularly and wear SPF daily to protect against sun damage. What is the best ingredient for facial skin tightening? Sure, there’s no magic elixir for youthful skin, but some ingredients may help tighten skin over time. Retinol and peptides are your go-tos for long-term face tightening, while hyaluronic acid gives you that instant plumping effect. Vitamin C is another hero ingredient, protecting against sun damage and boosting collagen production.

Behind the Skincare Debate: Toner or Essence—or Both?
Find Your Perfect Pair The essence vs. toner debate has been circulating in skincare circles for years. While serums and moisturisers often steal the spotlight, these two unsung heroes quietly play a vital role in achieving a balanced, glowing complexion. But which one is truly essential? Or is it less of a debate and more about two champions working together in perfect harmony? Let’s dive deeper into the benefits of each and how they fit into your skincare ritual. What’s the Difference Between an Essence and a Toner? At first glance, toners and essences might seem similar, but their roles in your skincare ritual are quite distinct. Toner: A toner removes lingering impurities after cleansing, balances your skin’s pH, and preps your skin for the steps that follow. Lightweight and refreshing, toners often address specific concerns like redness or irritation while giving your skin that first sip of hydration. Essence: An essence takes hydration to the next level. Its primary job is to hydrate the skin and enhance the absorption of serums and moisturisers. With a silky texture, essences leave skin feeling hydrated, revitalised, and ready for the rest of your ritual. Think of it this way: a toner sets the stage, while an essence amplifies the performance. Meet the Jurlique Champions: Calendula Toner and Activating Water Essence+ Our Calendula Toner and Activating Water Essence+ are the ultimate partners in your sensitive skin ritual, each offering unique benefits: Calendula Toner: Specially crafted for sensitive skin, this toner soothes and rebalances post-cleansing. Enriched with farm-grown Calendula, Manuka Leaf and Tasmanian Pepper Leaf extract, this lightweight toner calms skin* and reduces redness*. Activating Water Essence+: A hydration powerhouse, this essence is crafted to lock in moisture and enhance the absorption of serums and creams. Infused with farm-grown Marshmallow Root extract, it leaves skin hydrated, radiant, and ready to take on the day. While they differ in texture and purpose, both products are united by their ability to transform your skin’s hydration and radiance. When to Use One, the Other, or Both Your choice between toner, essence, or both depends on your skin’s needs and your desired results. Use Calendula Toner if: You have sensitive, reactive skin and need a calming, soothing step after cleansing. Its gentle formula preps your skin and leaves it rebalanced and nourished. Use Activating Water Essence+ if: You’re looking to amplify hydration, improve serum absorption, or boost your skin’s natural glow with a formula suitable for all skin types. Use Both if: You want the best of both worlds. Start with the Calendula Toner to balance and soothe, then follow with Activating Water Essence+ to deeply hydrate and enhance the efficacy of your serums and moisturisers. Together, they create a seamless ritual that nurtures and transforms your skin. A Perfect Partnership The toner vs. essence debate isn’t about choosing sides—it’s about understanding how they complement each other. Together, they form a dynamic duo that works to soothe, hydrate, and prepare your skin. Ready to experience the best of both worlds? Discover the soothing power of our Calendula Toner, and amplify your ritual with our Activating Water Essence+. *Clinical study of 20 subjects with sensitive skin, 5 minutes after a single application.

The Journey Behind Our Calendula Range
Discover our new sensitive skin saving range At Jurlique, we’ve always believed in the power of listening. That’s why our new Calendula Range was born from a commitment to address the real concerns of those with sensitive skin. From start to finish, this range was shaped by input and feedback from people who face the daily challenges of redness, dryness, tightness, and irritation. Our campaign also features the faces and personal stories of those with sensitive skin. Created with Your Concerns in Mind We approached the development of our Calendula Range with one goal: creating products that work in harmony with sensitive skin. We started by identifying the key concerns faced by those with sensitive skin—redness, dryness, tightness, and irritation. From there, we carefully selected a blend of potent farm-grown actives, using advanced skincare science to craft a solution that’s as gentle as it is effective. Hero ingredients like farm-grown Calendula Flower and Manuka Leaf soothe and protect from environmental aggressors, while Tasmanian Pepper Leaf extract calms and reduces redness*, restoring balance and comfort to compromised skin. Each product in the range underwent rigorous clinical and consumer testing to ensure it delivered real results. Clinical studies revealed that our newest members of the Calendula range helps reduce redness**, improve hydration***, strengthen the skin’s moisture barrier^ and restore damaged skin^. Consumer trials echoed these findings, with participants reporting softer, calmer and more hydrated skin, with sensitivities soothed and redness visibly reduced. Finding the Faces of Our Campaign When it came time to share the story of our Calendula Range, we knew the best way to do it was through the voices of the very people who inspired its creation. So, we turned to our Jurlique community with a casting call for people who have experienced the challenges of sensitive skin. What we discovered was nothing short of beautiful. From heartfelt stories of struggle and self-care to unshakable passion for natural solutions, our community showed us the true meaning of resilience. The individuals selected to feature in our campaign are the voices for sensitive skin, sharing their journeys to help others feel seen and understood. Meet Sarah Walters “Dealing with sensitive skin always felt like a guessing game—I never knew what would set it off,” Sarah says. “The Calendula Serum has been a game-changer for me. It’s so gentle and soothing, and it keeps my skin calm and hydrated without feeling heavy.” Meet Jolie Chatfield " My skin can be hypersensitive when trying new products, so I've always had to be careful with what I put on my face" says Jolie. Her go-to product is the Calendula Cream. "It's so comforting and gentle, it always leaves my skin feeling soft and calm." Meet James King "I’ve always struggled with redness and irritation, especially after shaving," James shares. His top pick? The Calendula Toner. "It’s light and refreshing, and it instantly soothes any discomfort. My skin feels hydrated and balanced, without that tight or dry feeling."

Our Farm-Grown Favourites for Sensitive Skin
Uncover the soothing power of nature Sensitive skin is an increasingly common concern, affecting over 60% of women and 50% of men globally*, with symptoms ranging from redness and dryness to irritation and discomfort. At Jurlique, we’ve made it our mission to address these concerns with a gentle and naturally effective solution. Our new Calendula Range is powered by farm-grown actives, including Calendula and Manuka Leaf. But how do these natural actives compare to popular synthetic ingredients like niacinamide? Let’s take a closer look. Our Soothing Duo: Calendula and Manuka Leaf At the heart of our sensitive skin range are two hero ingredients—Calendula and Manuka Leaf, cultivated on our biodynamic** farm. This soothing duo were carefully selected for their ability to calm, protect against environmental aggressors, and restore sensitive skin. As one of the largest growers of Calendula in Australia, Jurlique has spent years perfecting the cultivation of this calming flower. We trialled 25 varieties to select the top performer carefully chosen for its rich antioxidants and soothing properties. Meanwhile, Manuka Leaf—a new skincare active and Australian native hand-harvested on our Adelaide Hills farm—is known for its ability to calm skin. Together, these botanicals create a powerful duo that nurtures even the most delicate skin. Farm-Grown and Carefully Crafted At Jurlique, we believe that the best skincare starts at the source. That’s why we grow our Calendula and Manuka Leaf on our biodynamic** farm in South Australia. Our seed-to-skin philosophy ensures that every ingredient is carefully cultivated, using sustainable practices that nurture and enrich the land. From planting to harvest, we oversee every step to preserve the natural vitality and potency of our botanicals, ensuring they deliver the highest quality actives. Synthetic vs. Natural: Finding Balance in Skincare The debate between synthetic and natural ingredients often creates a false divide, but the truth is that both have their place in effective skincare. Take niacinamide, for example. Like Calendula and Manuka Leaf, this synthetic ingredient is celebrated for its ability to soothe irritation, improve hydration, and strengthen the skin moisture barrier. Its benefits make it a staple in many skincare rituals. However, natural ingredients like Calendula and Manuka Leaf offer something unique. Beyond their soothing and protective properties, they deliver a multi-sensory experience—aromas that calm the mind, textures that comfort the skin, and a connection to nature that synthetic ingredients find hard to replicate. These natural actives offer a more considered and holistic approach that is ideal for sensitive skin. Natural Ingredients with Proven Results We rigorously test our natural ingredients to ensure they deliver results without compromising skin health. Our sensitive skin range is dermatologically tested and trusted by real consumers with real sensitivities, ensuring you get the gentle care your skin needs without sacrificing effectiveness. Calendula and Manuka Leaf demonstrate the power of natural actives in delivering soothing, effective care for sensitive skin. Explore our Calendula Range and discover the gentle, transformative power of farm-grown actives for yourself. *Miranda a.

The Role of Fragrance in Sensitive Skincare
Calm skin and senses with our Calendula Range It's a common belief that fragrance-free skincare is a must for sensitive skin, but is it really the only option? For years, many have associated fragrance in sensitive skin products with irritation or discomfort. While some fragrances may contribute to these concerns, natural fragrances, when consciously crafted, are known to enhance your skincare ritual. Let's explore the role of synthetic and natural fragrance in skincare and how Jurlique is redefining sensorial skincare experiences. Understanding Synthetic Fragrances in Skincare Synthetic fragrances are widely used across the skincare industry, offering a vast range of scents. While they are considered safe for many, those with sensitive skin may find synthetic fragrances challenging, as they can sometimes trigger redness, dryness, or irritation. The issue often lies in the lack of transparency around their composition, which can make it difficult to pinpoint potential irritants. However, it's important to note that synthetic fragrances don't always pose issues for every skin type. They have their place in many formulations, but for sensitive skin, a gentler alternative can offer greater comfort and care. Recognising this need, Jurlique is now committed to crafting products with natural origin ingredients and fragrances to better serve sensitive skin. Guided by our new formulation charter, we strive to set a new standard by incorporating 100% natural origin fragrances into every new launch, ensuring a gentle, sensorial experience suitable for all skin types. The Gentle Power of Natural Origin Fragrances Our new Calendula Range is infused with a 100% natural origin fragrance*, crafted to deliver a calming, sensorial experience. These fragrances are chosen to align perfectly with the soothing nature of our formulas. Dermatologically and ophthalmologically tested, this range ensures safety and comfort for sensitive skin. Participants in consumer trials of our Calendula Range reported that the natural scent enhanced their overall experience, helping to calm and soothe their senses**. This underscores the value of a conscious, sensorial approach to sensitive skincare. Sensitive Skincare That Doesn't Compromise While synthetic fragrances may not suit everyone, natural origin fragrances offer an opportunity to transform skincare into a nurturing ritual. At Jurlique, we're committed to incorporating these gentle fragrances into our products, ensuring they are rigorously tested and crafted to deliver the ultimate balance of nature and science. With our Calendula Range, sensitive skincare no longer means sacrificing a sensorial experience. From calming aromas to clinically proven benefits, our products reflect a dedication to innovation and care. Ready to elevate your skincare ritual?

The Inside Scoop on Sensitive Skin
Unlock the ultimate ritual for sensitive skin Sensitive skin is full of surprises, and we understand how overwhelming it can be to manage skin that feels unpredictable. Sensitive skin isn't uncommon, and you're not alone in this journey. The good news? Understanding the causes and characteristics of sensitive skin is the first step toward finding soothing, naturally effective solutions that work for you. Our Jurlique skincare expert is here to provide the inside scoop on sensitive skin. What is Sensitive Skin? Sensitive skin is more common than you might think. Studies suggest that over 60% of women and 50% of men globally experience some form of skin sensitivity*. It can show up as redness, dryness, tightness, or irritation, and it often leaves your skin feeling uncomfortable or inflamed. The defining feature of sensitive skin is its overreaction to external or internal triggers that most other skin types tolerate well. These reactions can range from mild discomfort to visible signs of sensitivity, such as flaky patches, redness, or even a stinging sensation. While sensitive skin can be frustrating, it's important to know that it's not a flaw—it simply requires extra care and understanding. What Causes Sensitive Skin? Sensitive skin is often the result of a compromised skin barrier, which acts as the protective shield between your skin and the environment. When this barrier is weakened, your skin becomes more vulnerable to irritation and discomfort. Internal Factors Sensitive skin can be influenced by various internal factors, many of which are beyond our control. Genetics often play a significant role, as sensitive skin tends to run in families, making it more prone to reactions triggered by various environmental or product-related factors. Hormonal fluctuations, whether caused by stress, pregnancy, or natural cycles, can also heighten the skin's reactivity. Additionally, emotional and physical stress can exacerbate sensitivity, further compromising the skin's natural balance. External Triggers External triggers are equally impactful and can intensify the challenges faced by sensitive skin. Pollution, including dirt and airborne particles, can irritate the skin, clog pores and weaken its protective barrier. Prolonged exposure to UV rays damages the skin's defences, leading to redness, dryness, and discomfort. Seasonal changes, such as shifts in humidity, temperature, and wind, often strip moisture from the skin, resulting in tightness and irritation. Finally, harsh skincare ingredients, including alcohol, synthetic fragrances, and abrasive exfoliants, can disrupt the skin's delicate balance, making it more vulnerable to sensitivity. How to Know If You Have Sensitive Skin Identifying sensitive skin is all about tuning into how your skin reacts. Here are some signs to look for: Reactions to products: If new skincare products cause stinging, redness, or itching, your skin might be sensitive. Environmental triggers: Changes in weather or exposure to pollution often leave your skin feeling tight or dry. Ongoing discomfort: Persistent feelings of tightness, dryness, or tingling can be a sign of sensitivity. Visible signs: Redness, flaky patches, or uneven texture may indicate a compromised skin barrier. If any of these sound familiar, your skin could benefit from a gentler, more targeted approach. Support Sensitive Skin Naturally Sensitive skin doesn't have to be a source of frustration. With the right knowledge and care, you can calm protect against environmental aggressors and restore your skin's balance. At Jurlique, we believe that nature holds the key to effective solutions. Our new Calendula Range is thoughtfully crafted with farm-grown actives and gentle, clinically proven formulas to nurture sensitive skin with uncompromising care. Explore our skin-soothing Calendula Range and experience the power of calming, naturally effective skincare—crafted with sensitive skin in mind. *Miranda a.
