Transform your skin from within

Transform your skin from within

Your skin is a reflection of your life. The way your skin looks and feels reflects more than the skincare products you use…

Your skin also tells the story of the food you eat, the air you breathe, the alcohol you drink, the amount of stress in your life, your hormonal balance and your self-care practices.

Bestow Beauty offers a beautiful range of organic skin nutrition boosters from beauty powders to oils, beauty capsules and organic teas to moisturise, nourish, purify and protect your skin from within, while their inspiring books help you to achieve healthy skin through nutritious and delicious recipes and daily self-care rituals.

What you put on your skin is only half the story. Bestow’s nourishing skin nutrition boosters support skin on a cellular level and nurture beautiful, healthy, skin from the inside out.

Bestow products are organically sourced from New Zealand and Sri Lanka. The designer skin nutrition boosters include bio-available phytonutrients, minerals, vitamins, and amino acids.

 

Living the Bestow Way is a beautiful way to live. Let’s begin by introducing you to our incredible Bestow Beauty range, available in-salon or online HERE. Bestow Winter and Summer Cleanses are also now available for FREE! Sign up to start your journey to healthier, more radiant skin below.

Brighten your world!

Brighten your world!

Although this time of year can be more dull with the shorter, cooler winter days, your wardrobe sure doesn’t need to be! The easiest and most fun way to brighten up the winter months and lift your spirits is by adding colour, texture and patterns to your outfits!

From warm neutral tones to exuberant reds, we have the hot fashion trends to delve into this season so you can step our feeling fabulous whatever the weather or occasion!

Love it or loathe it, animal print is one of those fashion trends that will continue to return again and again.

Even though Leopard print seems to be the most popular, don’t forget about the other options such as zebra, giraffe, tiger and even tropical birds!

Amp up your denim with an animal print belt or shoes, or bring on instant glamour with a flowy dress or fluffy coat. And if you’re brave enough, why not get some fun nail art to top off your outfit!

Want to go a bit more neutral this winter? Nothing wrong with that!

Light brown, tan and beige continues to be a favourite this season. They pair beautifully with blue, beige and crisp white jeans. So why not welcome these neutrals to your wardrobe?

Whether you want to rock your cinnamon brown boots, your rust coat or accentuate your eyes with a chocolate eye shadow, you will be a natural at showing off your beauty!

Blue is such a classic colour that’s available in many different shades and can easily be dressed up or down.

Wear a smokey blue to the office, some navy blue to a special event or just that timeless pair of blue jeans for a casual coffee out with the girls. It’s an easy colour to wear on its own or pair with some naturals and soft pinks.

What’s the easiest way to brighten up a dull winters day? Add a splash of colour of course!

Do it your way with a piece of clothing, a scarf, a lippie or some nail polish. Whatever you choose you are bound to get some compliments and make you feel extra good.

Adding a bit of orange helps spice up winter days!

Colours such as pumpkin, sunset and salamander are warm and vibrant, while apricot, amber and sandstone has a softer feel.

Orange is associated with joy and sunshine, and when there is not a lot of sunshine around, why not create your own?!

What’s hot this winter season?

Green is definitely one of the popular colour trends this season. Whether you love a shade of deep-sea green, olive, rich green or all of them (nothing wrong with that right!) – you will definitely be looking cozy in your choice.

Pair it with black or neutrals or even some florals in pink or purple. Create a contrast, go all one tone, be YOU!

Yellow is such a stunning, but sometimes feared colour (to wear). Did you know that yellow represents personal power and fulfilment, abundance, courage and self-confidence?

You can easily introduce this colour by means of accessories or beauty products if you don’t feel quite bold enough to don a yellow jacket or pants.

Give it a try and bring some happiness and sunlight to your outfit!

An outfit isn’t complete without a sumptuous lippy! Just in time for winter, Quoi’s new lipstick shades have hit the shelves! These three fabulous colours are available in-salon now!  

These opulent, creamy, intensely-pigmented formulas bathe lips with moisture and antioxidant Vitamin E helps keeps lips protected, conditioned and hydrated throughout the day.

Show your fearlessness with Audacious Azalia from Quoi!

This bold yet beautifully earthy shade will make your pout pop! Representing your brave, daring side, this stunning lipstick exudes confidence, providing that final definitive touch to any outfit!

Regal Red from Quoi.

According to colour psychology, red is the colour most associated with passion, action and energy. Red represents confidence, lust and in some cultures, it represents luck. No wonder there’s something so sultry and divine about a woman who wears a bold red lip.

Let’s go to Paris! If only we could right now…
We’ll take you there with our Parisian Pink lipstick from Quoi.

The colour pink is the colour of universal love of oneself and of others. Pink represents friendship , affection, harmony, inner peace, and approachability. Pink is the sweet side of the colour red.

Escape to Fiji!

Escape to Fiji!

Dreaming of a tropical getaway, relaxing on white sand beaches, dining on fresh tropical fruits and juices, swimming in the pristine oceans of the South Pacific?

Although we can’t physically travel to the tropics right now, indulging in our Pure Fiji products will transport you straight to Fiji without leaving the comfort of your own home!
From body scrubs to butters, exotic body oils to lotions, your skin will not only thank you for using Pure Fiji, but your senses will too!

Sugar cane, pineapple, papaya, passionflower and green coconut are freshly harvested and processed within hours to preserve their fresh bounty of naturally occurring nutrients.

Pure Fiji’s blend of cold pressed coconut, dilo, macadamia and sikeci nuts revered for their medicinal and beautifying properties contribute pure, unadulterated nourishment, moisturisation, nutrition and protection. Deep-sea plants provide protection from the inevitable aging effects of the sun and the inimitable Ngi grass – living within reach of the ocean spray – contribute to the formula for enhanced hydration and drastically improved skin moisturisation.

Pure Fiji’s newest beautiful range, Moringa boosts divine subtle infusion with notes of Mandarin, mulberry, vanilla, bergamot, island rose and honeysuckle.

The rich creamy fragrance of a delicately sweet coconut makes you remember the gentle caress of a sun soaked breeze, and let your imagination transport you back to paradise!

The amazing noni plant has been used by South Pacific Islanders as a source of medicine for over 2000 years. Noni fruit, Noni leaf hydrosols and Noni seed oil are all used in this skin rejuvenating range.

Discover the invigorating multi layered aroma of this exotic fruit with sparkling berry notes, intoxicating blossoms and the freshness of green leaves carried on warm tropical breezes.

Loved and shared throughout the islands, this refreshing and zesty fragrance conjures imagery of sun kissed days and balmy nights.

Nestled within the exotic embrace of tropical fruit and flower notes, you are lulled by the fresh sweetness of a hint of apple caressed by the morning sun.

How to start prepping your skin for winter

Step up your moisturising game

Don’t forget your sunscreen

Just because you’re not hitting the beach and basking in the warm sun this winter, doesn’t mean you should forget about sun protection altogether. While it may not feel sweltering hot, the winter sun can still do plenty of damage. UVA rays are present all year round and are the main contributing factor for accelerated ageing.

Protect your skin every day with broad spectrum sun protection combined with a boost of moisture. Our best-selling non-whitening hydrating formula is fast absorbing and lightweight. Suitable for dry skin types.
