Big Brand News For Arbonne
Launching their latest range in June, Arbonne has continued their ‘derm’ collaboration and expanded from ‘glow’ to their new ‘advanced’ range.
The exciting range consists of five standalone pieces and two multi-step kits, which bodes well for those hoping to use the products in conjunction with one another. The range aims to target fine lines, wrinkles, texture and loss of firmness and elasticity.
A look into the products:
As Arbonne is a certified B Corp company, their mission is to create products that meet the highest standards set by B Corp to create a positive social and environmental impact. So, it should come as no surprise that their products boast a vegan formulation with a PETA approved cruelty-free seal of approval. Oh and bonus: they’re also gluten-free (basically good enough to eat).
Arbonne promises to go beyond clean with their ingredient lists so you can be sure any ingredient included will be doing the absolute best for not only your skin but also the environment.

Go-To releases new cleanser
Juicy Gel joins Go-To’s cleansing collection.
Juicy Gel is the first step to a clean, soft face and won’t strip or dry the skin of its natural oils.
Soap-free with a light lather, Juicy Gel removes impurities while keeping your skin barrier balanced and happy.
Expertly formulated with calming and soothing ingredients - cleansers are the first product to hit your skin morning and night, they should be soft and light - Juicy Gel is a jam-packed replenishing recipe.
Cucumber extract hydrates and plumps, whilst tapping into its cooling and refreshing properties too. Lotus root water soothes the skin with its essential oils. Highly nourishing aloe vera helps to prevent flaking or dryness, and restore suppleness to the skin.
And jojoba esters leave your face feeling clean and smooth (never dry) long after cleansing. All that before you’ve even reached for your targeted active ingredients (or morning mimosa celery juice). A good cleanser sets up the rest of your skincare to really work.
Juicy Gel is gentle and hydrating enough to get down (and clean) with sensitive and mature faces, but is perfectly suitable for any skin type chasing an invigorating cleanse.
With Juicy Gel (gel) cosying up beside cult-favourite Properly Clean (mousse) and double cleansing hero, Fancy Face (oil), Go-To now expands their cleansing collection to three unique products, ideal for any face or textural preference.
Use Juicy Gel alone or as the second step (after a cleansing oil or balm) in your double cleanse routine.
Juicy Gel 200ML is A$39 Available from gotoskincare.com and Mecca. On sale August 29, 2023
