All Natural, Australian owned, all-purpose balm
www.thegreatstate.com.au @thegreatstate
After a year indoors with nothing but time to experiment with skincare products and trying our luck at cooking sourdough, there is a new beauty trend that’s all about ‘celebrating simple’. Enter Skinimalism – a movement to skip endless (often unnecessary) beauty steps, and focus on healthy skin without the need for so many different products. A paired-back beauty routine which lets our skin breathe and do its own thing, and one that’s gaining momentum.
The Great State balm is skinimalism and multitasking at its finest, this natural all-purpose balm can be used to soothe and protect skin from skin complaints ranging from chapped lips, cracked heels, dry skin, and many many more. It’s 10+ products combined into one convenient tin.
Australian made, The Great State is a toxin free, fragrance free balm that contains 7 pure ingredients guided by a deep belief in the healing powers of nature. Each ingredient has been carefully selected, ethically sourced and specially formulated to harness and maximise the benefits of each ingredient. The lightweight and effective formula makes it perfect for use everywhere, for everything, for everyone.
Passionate about giving back, The Great State is committed to empowering women in developing countries to reimagine the future for themselves and their families, achieving this through a partnership with the Love Mercy Foundation’s “Cents for Seeds” program. The program works through the provision of a loan of seeds, a hand-held gardening tool, and educational workshops and aims to increase the resilience of entire communities whilst relieving immediate poverty.
The Great State balm can be used for:
Moisturising lips, dry cuticles, cracked heels, dry elbows, tame eyebrows, windburn, cold- chapped cheeks, brittle nails, paper cuts, insect bites, boosting a moisturiser lotion, nappy rash, board rash, eczema, some fungal infections, cradle cap, preventing ingrown hairs, making glossy glazes with powdered pigments, a carrier for essential oils… and more!
The Great State ingredients:
Jojoba Oil – This protective oil moisturises all skin types and is particularly useful for nourishing dry and mature skin. With excellent softening properties, itʼs a great multi-purpose oil especially for those rough and dry areas of skin.
Shea Butter – Shea butter is one of nature’s most effective moisturisers. It is high in essential fatty acids, vitamin A and vitamin E, which are all important nutrients for skin growth and repair.
Organic Beeswax – Harvested from organic farms in Australia which have cruelty-free certification. This beeswax is used for its emollient (skin softening and/or soothing) and humectant (attracts and assists in the absorption of water) properties.
Avocado Oil – Deeply moisturising, avocado is one of the best oils for soothing dry skin, and can even help to soften rough patches, such as elbows and heels. Naturally rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, the oil is cold-pressed from the fruit, to protect and retain the natural goodness.
Grape Seed Oil – Cold-pressed from the seeds of grapes, this light, fragrance free oil is rich in antioxidants and essential fatty acids, and is easily absorbed. Mildly astringent, it helps to tone, balance and condition the skin while regulating its natural moisture levels.
Organic Virgin Coconut Oil – This tropical treasure has been used by the people of Pacific Islands for generations. Sourced through a social enterprise who helps remote tropical villages to create income from excess coconuts that would otherwise go to waste.
Cherry Seed Oil – Rich in vitamins and antioxidants, cherry seed oil provides natural, effective hydration.
Tocopherol – More commonly known as Vitamin E. It exhibits antioxidant activity, which means it not only preserves the products that it is in, but it is also nourishing and can help to control free radical damage.
