I wanted to take a break from product reviews to tell you a little bit about the sites that I like to visit when shopping online for beauty products from natural and independent brands. Sometimes the choice can be overwhelming so I wanted to create a reference for you that can help you navigate the world wide web of Australian beauty e-tailers. I have personally shopped from all of these and have always had a great customer service experience.
The Beauty Edit
Run by my dear friend Franca, this Perth based beauty retailer stocks some of my all time favourite natural skincare brands such as Sodashi, Skin Juice, Ausceuticals and cult favourites such as La Belle Lune. Franca only stocks products that she has personally tested so you can be sure that you are in good hands. Hit her up for a free skincare consultation and she’ll get your skin on the right track.
Fluke Favourite: Ausceuticals Peptide Moisturiser
Eve Organics
Eve Organics is a Perth e-tailer that stocks indie beauty favourites such as H is for Love, Leahlani and Earthwise Beauty. Eve seems to be very passionate about bringing on up and coming brands, which is great to see. I was so happy to discover an Australian stockist of H is For Love!
Fluke Favourite: H is for Love Propolis Regenerative Face Mask
The V-Spot
Jannifer of the V-Spot not only shares my love of mint green but also the love of natural beauty. Her online vegan sanctuary is home to brands such as Gemma Vendetta cosmetics, Nude and Noir cosmetics, Oilixia and Skin Owl. Jannifer is really committed to providing a one stop shop for those leading a vegan lifestyle and at V-Spot you can find everything from beauty to clothing and accessories such as shoes and bags.
Fluke Favourite: Skin Owl Illuminating Body Oil
Luna Beauty & Apothecary
After trying to find an Australian stockist of Twelve Beauty I stumbled upon Luna Beauty & Apothecary which is based in Sydney. They stock brands such as Wildcrafted Organics, Kypris and Living Libations and if you’re ever in the Surry Hills area you should stop by their brick & mortar store which also offers naturopathic and complexion services.
Fluke Favourite: Twelve Beauty Hyaluroil Lip Treatment
I am Natural Store
I am Natural Store is my go to for 14e cosmetics, Josh Rosebrook and Tata Harper. They have some really cool indie brands that I am yet to try, so all in all it’s a great source of shopping inspiration for fellow beauty junkies. They also offer wellbeing and lifestyle products.
Fluke Favourite: Josh Rosebrook Hydrating Accelerator
The Lab Organics
The Lab Organics is a brick & mortar and online store located in Melbourne. They stock hair products such as Reverie and Mr Smith and cult skincare brands such as Herbivore Botanicals, Indie Lee and MV Organic Skincare. Their offering is really impressive and they have some really hard to find products on their shelves which is always refreshing to see. I only shop at Lab Organics for brands that are exclusive to them as their pricing is a little bit higher on the more popular brands, compared to other retailers.
Fluke Favourite: Reverie Milk Anti-Frizz Leave In Nourishing Treatment
Clean Beauty Market
A relative new comer to the beauty retailer world is Clean Beauty Market which is located in Mermaid Beach, Queensland. They have a brick & mortar and online store which represents brands such as BYBI Beauty, Clove & Hallow and The Beauty Archive. They have a really good mix of skincare and makeup and they also offer special event make up and classes. Check them out if you’re ever in the area.
Fluke Favourite: Babe Balm Multi Purpose Beauty Balm
Natural Supply Co
Natural Supply Co has a great selection of familiar brands and some harder to find ones thrown in the mix too. Some that you may be familiar with are Inika, Bite Beauty and Bondi Wash. Others which are less known include Mia Höytö, The Skin Kitchen and Hello Brows. They’re next on my list!
Fluke Favourite: Lani Tropical Super Serum
