Beauty and lifestyle brand launches campaign for domestic violence awareness
Monday, November 25 marks the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, highlighting the enormity of Australia’s domestic violence problem.
Did you know domestic violence effects a startling 1 in 6 Australian women and 1 in 16 Australian men? To help expose this problem, international lifestyle brand Jeunesse Australasia, and its charitable arm, Jeunesse Kids, is bringing attention to the hidden struggles of children affected through a national purpose campaign.
In partnership with not-for-profit charity Friends with Dignity, the initiative is set to launch through the grand reveal of a raw, emotionally moving interactive mural and animation film titled, ‘Sarah’s Story’ on York Street in Sydney’s CBD on November 20, marking the United Nations Universal Children’s Day.
Jeunesse Australasia hopes to raise awareness around these sobering statistics through ‘Sarah’s Story’ - a story based on the real-life events of a 6-year-old child affected by exposure to domestic violence in the home, and her remarkable recovery through the charity’s scholarship program called Little Friends.
Friends with Dignity and Jeunesse Kids are both tackling this challenge in a different way, by providing bursaries to children who have been exposed to violence, giving them hope to continue growing and evolving in their lives. Already, over 186 scholarships have been distributed as part of the Little Kids Scholarship Fund.
To show your support, please donate to the Little Friends Scholarship Program supported by Jeunesse Kids, here.
The first Australian brand to utilise this natural retinol alternative

The plant-based, certified organic skincare brand has released Renew Serum, a powerful serum complex of 15 unique botanicals, including the aforementioned powerhouse ingredient.
The benefits of bakuchiol has been harnessed for years in Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine, however recently it’s been found to offer the same anti-ageing and skin renewing benefits as retinol, without the irritating side effects or photo-sensitivity.
Suitable for all skin types, the Renew Serum combines bakuchiol and kakadu plum, a potent source of vitamin C, with 13 more botanicals that work in synergy to hydrate and protect the skin from environmental stressors, soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, smooth skin texture and improve firmness and elasticity for healthier, refined skin.
“We’ve already seen some pretty incredible results that most people think are only achievable with synthetic ingredients”, said Saya Skincare director, Saya McDermott. "The Renew Serum truly is a game changer for Australian skincare".
