"Combination skin presents a real challenge. Boost Balancing Moisturiser by Botáni allows light moisture to soothe and calm troubled skin. Restoring vitality and calmness is the outcome, without any clogging. Perfect for under makeup and great for men as an aftershave moisturiser to soothe shaving irritations." …Gerald Quigley, Pharmacist and Herbalist, Priceline Pharmacy Prahan. What other people are saying….. "Just when I was about to give up, I found one last box of Botáni Purify Facial Cleanser and Boost Balancing Moisturiser sitting on a shelf in my local health food shop. I thought "I have nothing to lose"... so I took my chances and took it home to try. I loved the packaging, the smell, the feel of the product and the fact that

your products are Australian made from NATURAL plant ingredients, by a group of people who are earth and animal friendly and creating a more conscious approach to skin care. The best part was your product actually gave me RESULTS! My skin cleared more and more with each day I used it. Now, it FEELS amazing. It is hydrated and for the first time ever, not excess in oil. The acne has cleared and my skin is actually smooth... without the bumps of pimples! Friends and family are commenting on how clear my skin is. I am so proud to be in my skin now. I LOVE your product and am so grateful to you for taking the time and effort to create a wholesome product that has changed the health of my skin and my self confidence with it"…..Stacey Elmes

"I purchased the Boost Balancing Moisturiser, and it is amazing how quickly I saw results. Apart from the beautiful smell and the lovely texture, my skin literally began to glow - so much so, other people have commented on it - something that has never happened to me in my whole life!
Thank you so much for putting a 'real' product on the shelves, not one that made up of harsh chemicals and false hope!"...Sarah Molnar

"I started using the Purify Facial Cleanser and Boost Balancing Moisturiser over a month ago. Prior to using your products I have a history of pimples and in general just irritated sensitive skin that just never looks clear. Since using your products I have noticed a major improvement in my skin. My complexion is the healthiest it has been in years and your products do not irritate my skin at all. Thanks for your help and wonderful products."….Megan Harris

"I have only been using "Botani" products for the last few weeks. I am 42 years old and have always had great skin, but over the last few years I have developed Rosacea, to my great frustration. It was not really bad, but bad enough. I have tried many products, gels recommended by doctors, special creams from America...
I decided that the idea of chemical free, organic, etc was the way to go, so I visited my local health food store and they recommended your product. Since then my skin has improved out of sight. My Rosacea now has only appeared for the 3 days around my period last month, but my skins feels firm and strong, my face is not red and inflamed looking anymore and my skin actually looks younger.. And for 99% of the month my skin is clear... And I have only used the Olive Soothing Cleanser, Olive Skin Serum and Boost Balancing Moisturiser so far!
Thanks for developing such a great product! I am very happy. I have recommended you to all my friends, several of whom have already rushed out to get some!".....Kim

"Just a quick note to say how happy I am to have finally found your product.
I am a person who has allergies; I am Vegan and have been searching for a natural skin range that suits my skin.
While walking past my local chemist I noticed a new display with "Botani" products. I began to read the literature, and proceeded to buy the Olive Skin Serum and the Boost Balancing Moisturiser. They have both proved to be compatible with my sensitive skin type. Although the Boost Balancing Moisturiser is for combination skin it does appear to be very good for me as a daily moisturiser.
I look forward to purchasing other Botani products. Good work"…..Paula

"Josh is really happy with the way his skin feels, the moisturiser stops him from scratching his face to pieces at night. The eczema on his face and neck feels calmer. All the ingredients in the Boost Balancing Moisturiser are what Eczema suffers need l am so glad we have found something for his skin. Thanks"….Michelle

Boost Balancing Moisturiser comes in 50ml (RRP $25.95) and 100ml (RRP: $42.95 )

Time for a Detox?

As we follow the seasons, Spring is the perfect time for a detox. Now, I know some of you will cringe at the thought, but a detox doesn't have to be a frightening thing.

Eliminating toxins is a normal process of our body. Every day we take in food and liquid and our bodies are designed to process what we need and remove what we don't. This all works well, but our environment today is very different from when it was at the beginning of human-kind. The food we eat is processed, we often eat more than we should, our foods are full of chemicals and many of us survive on one caffeine fix to the next. And let's not forget about all that stress we put ourselves under. It is any wonder that we now have more and more disease that are directly association with the body being toxic and overloaded.

Symptoms of being toxic are varied, but if you suffer from aches and pains, headaches, digestive problems, constipation or skin problems (just to name a few) then a detox could be a good start to get you on the road to recovery.

To keep things simple, a detox can just be a few changes in your diet. Take it easy on yourself and start slowly. If you're drinking a lot of caffeine, then gradually decrease the amount you're having, such as drinking smaller cups. Introduce more fruit and vegetables (of the season) as well as nuts and seeds. If you do this gradually then, it will be easier for you to take a few days of just concentrating on these purely fruit and veg that will nourish you and cleanse you.

Drink fresh juices. If you normally drink fizzy drinks, then help make the change by mixing soda water with your juice. Try some herbal alternatives to tea and coffee. And drink lots of water. Yes around 2 litres a day or more! Especially when you are detoxing. This will help to eliminate toxins, which helps you lose weight and have beautiful clear skin.

Make October your month to do something positive for yourself. You will feel and look fresh and wonderful for the Summer ahead.

(Seek advice from your Natural Health Practitioner for a full detoxification program, especailly if you are dealing with any major health issues.)
