Buy Curious

Companies/brands that are currently on my "to-patronise" list


~ 100% Pure Cosmetics
Founded by Susie Wang in 2004 with Headquarters in California and in Paris. They claim to offer cosmetics coloured from antioxidant-rich fruit and vegetable pigments as well as skin care, body care and hair care products that contains no synthetic chemicals; no artificial fragrances; no petro chemicals; no chemical preservatives or any other toxins. Their product formulas are organic, gluten-free, cruelty-free and vegan.

~ SK-II
Over thirty years ago, a scientist was visiting a Japanese sake brewery and they noticed how soft and young the hands of the workers were. After five years of research, scientists were able to isolate the natural, nutrient-rich liquid which they called Pitera - the signature ingredient in all SK-II products. Their Facial Treatment Essence contains over 90% pure Pitera and has been described by many women as their "holy water".

~ The Body Bakery
Dessert Inspired... Skin Desired. This company was started in 2001 and is owned by Lia Schmoldt. They offer bakery-scented bath and body products.

I am especially tempted by their lip butters which currently comes in 55 delicious-sounding flavours ranging from Almond Cookie to White Chocolate Raspberry.
