5 MINUTES WITH BELYNDA HENRY
Belynda Henry is the acclaimed Australian artist who created The Jurlique Farm, the stunning painting that appears on our 2017 Rosewater Balancing Mist Intense Deluxe Edition. We chatted to Belynda to find out more about what inspires her work and why she chose to collaborate with us.How important is nature in your life?I live on 40 acres on the NSW Central Coast, at the end of a secluded valley surrounded by thousands of acres of national park. There’s lots of wildlife here, and it’s where my two daughters have grown up. I’ve loved teaching them about nature and we’re lucky that there’s a lot of nature around us. And my everyday fascination with the Australian landscape inspires what I paint.How do you incorporate nature in your art?Living at the end of a long valley, which I drive through daily, I am constantly and automatically gathering views, moments and images I see. Then, back in my bushland studio, I reassemble the memories much like a jigsaw into a simplified and emotional interpretation of the beauty that surrounds me. I look for shapes, forms and colour, and my interpretations depend on how I feel when I look at things.What made you want to work with Jurlique?Jurlique loves and respects nature, so I think that was our common thread. I can relate to this, as I too take something simple yet wonderful from nature and transform it into something people love. Jurlique’s link with nature is really important to me, how they don’t take it for granted; they incorporate the principles of sustainable farming and only grow what they need. It represents both a simplicity and a power.When did you first start using Jurlique products?I went to Sydney College of the Arts and had to travel through the city to get to there. That’s when I first saw the Jurlique store. I had a part-time job, and I would go and spend all my money in there; it was one of the first brands I really loved. I loved the scents and the natural products.How did you create The Jurlique Farm?My painting is a summary of everything I saw when I went to the farm. On my last day there, we sat on the side of a hill that looks across the valley, and that’s where I did my sketching. The wide open space, the native Australian colours of the gum trees, and of course the Roses were my inspiration.The colours at the farm were so beautiful and had such a beautiful fragrance. The painting I created was my interpretation of the farm, based on the colours and how it made me feel.And it was wonderful learning how Jurlique products are made – seeing the different elements of the farm, talking to the growers, finding out about the unique extraction process. It’s amazing how Jurlique has the vision to take nature, which is something so many people take for granted, and turn it into something so beautiful. Being there made it all make a lot more sense.Is there any Jurlique product you can’t live without?I love Rosewater Balancing Mist. It’s so beautiful. I keep it on my coffee table or sometimes it moves to the kitchen bench; it’s always somewhere where we can walk past and have a quick mist. It makes you feel special; it hydrates, but the smell is so beautiful and natural, and reminds me of the Roses I saw growing on the Jurlique Farm. It’s energising and makes you feel like you’re ready to go again.Rosewater Balancing Mist Intense Deluxe Edition is available in store and online at jurlique.com.au only while stocks last.

THE JOURNEY OF OUR PRECIOUS ROSA GALLICA FLOWERS
It takes an exceptional Rose to become an extraordinary extract. Discover the journey of the Roses that made it into our ultra luxe Fragrant Rose Hand Cream Limited Edition. It’s a story about liquid life force. Jurlique has always known that Nature is the most powerful beauty lab. The secret of the lush moisture and intense Rose scent of the NEW Fragrant Rose Hand Cream Limited Edition lies in the earth. THE STORY BEGINS WITH A ROSE BUD The pure essence of Rosa gallica flowers contained in the rich hand cream is drawn only from the best blooms of the season – the picks of the bunch. Hand-sown into the nutrient-rich soil of our organic Farm, each Rose plant is nourished by clear rainwater and sunlight of South Australia’s Adelaide Hills – the purest place on Earth. As the first organic Roses spring tenderly from the bush, they are gently hand-tended, raised to perfect bloom – Nature’s perfect Roses. PURITY IS THE ONLY PROCESS At Jurlique, everything is timed to Nature’s cycle. We hand-pick the best Roses only while they are at the peak of their natural power and take them to the botanical drying shed on our Farm, where fresh ingredients become purely concentrated, active extracts. Inside the shed, our Roses go through a meticulous three-phase extraction process to capture the powerful antioxidants and hydrating properties that live inside each petal. This painstaking process delivers a rich concentrated extract to deeply hydrate and replenish the skin on hands. NOT ALL ROSES ARE CREATED EQUAL Our Rosa Gallica is not just any Rose. Known as the Alchemist’s Rose, this Rose has been used medicinally for thousands of years – the pick of the bunch for its indulgent nourishing properties and the sweet fragrance that envelops the senses, lifting both the mind and the body. THE ULTIMATE GIFT OF NATURE We’ve simply blended the intense, active concentrate of Rosa Gallica into a lushly fragrant luxury hand cream, both a hand moisturizer and antioxidant-loaded, to deeply hydrate, soothe, soften and restore the skin while relaxing the senses. No artificial fragrances, parabens, silicones, PEGs or mineral oils or paraffin – just the pure liquid life force of red Roses, captured in a tube. We’ve also boxed it beautifully, into a luxurious gift for the skin and the senses. Give to someone special – or to self. An intense indulgence has never felt more necessary.
