Klorane announces major partnership

Klorane is thrilled to announce its major partnership with Rainforest Rescue to help grow 50,000 trees in the Daintree Rainforest.

In an effort to sustain Australia’s incredible biodiversity for future generations, Klorane has partnered with Rainforest Rescue, a non-for-profit organisation with objectives to protect and restore rainforests. Global warming is a growing, serious issue and one way to mitigate the damage and make a real difference is to plant trees - lots of trees.

With this partnership, Klorane helps contribute towards all the steps that go into propagating and growing 50,000 of the 75,000 seedlings that will be grown by the end of 2022. Klorane will be helping to double up the tree output across the nurseries with this investment, resulting in the largest nursery the Daintree has ever seen.

Laurent-Emmanuel Saffré, Head of Oceania Region and CEO of Pierre Fabre Australia said, “At Klorane we are pharmacists, we are botanists, and we are committed to the planet. And we have been doing this for over 50 years. 2022 marks an important year as we are going one step further in our environmental actions by supporting Rainforest Rescue in growing 50,000 trees in the Daintree. It is our mission to support crucial plant rescue and protection programs, as well as inspiring a love of plant science in generations to come.”

To follow along the journey with Ella Baché, #myskinloves will feature bold stories and anecdotes across www.ellabache.com and via @ellabacheaus from February.

Sunday Riley shares exciting news

After becoming the first exclusive skincare partner at Milano Fashion Week in September 2021, Sunday Riley is delighted to have entered London Fashion Week as the exclusive skincare partner of Rejina Pyo’s AW22 collection.

The brand has shared its secrets to getting the Sunday Riley glow:

The perfect cleanse, prep and prime to get your skin runway ready. Start with a deeply purifying and nourishing cleanse with Ceramic Slip Cleanser, which pulls dirt and impurities up and out of the skin while pulling in critical hydration.

Next, a power-drink for your skin. Pink Drink Firming and Resurfacing Essence is a peptide infused treatment that resurfaces, balances, and firms the look of the skin while supporting the natural microbiome.

Finish with an all-in-one AHA infused brightening treatment mask using Good Genes Lactic Acid Treatment. Designed to remove dull-looking, pore clogging dead skin while plumping the look of fine lines and wrinkles. Good Genes gives your skin a natural looking radiance that's make-up ready and is bound to steal the show.  

The final application is Auto Correct Brightening and Depuffing Eye Contour Cream – the runway bestseller that banishes tired-looking eyes and instantly illuminates the eye area. Auto Correct delivers a lifted and depuffed look to the eye area while rapidly reducing the appearance of dark circles and fine lines.

Sunday Riley is available exclusively at MECCA stores nationwide and mecca.com.au
