CosBeauty Magazine #85

EACH PRODUCT
HAS ITS OWN UNIQUE
SCENT THAT EVOKES
THE EXPERIENCE OF
BEING AT GAIA.
THE RANGE HAS CRUELTY-FREE
AND VEGAN CERTIFICATIONS
AS WELL AS PALM-OIL FREE
CERTIFICATION. WERE THESE
CERTIFICATIONS DEAL
BREAKERS FOR ITS CREATION?
Absolutely! These were nonnegotiables.
Olivia, myself and the
entire team at Gaia believe that
there is no need to harm an animal
or Mother Earth to create effective
skincare. We are really proud of these
certifi cations and believe they are a
truly unique aspect of our brand.
YOU’VE USED A NEW
TECHNOLOGY CALLED
AUSTRALIAN BIO-MIMICRY.
CAN YOU TELL US A LITTLE
ABOUT THAT?
It’s a super-advanced extraction
method that captures the powerful
phyto-compounds within the
Australian plants we use as they
exist in nature.
To survive in the harshest places
on earth, these Australian native
plants intelligently store high
concentrations of antioxidants
and vitamins. This new Cellular
Extraction allows for delivery of
their molecular profi le to help target
skincare concerns and deliver visible
results from the very fi rst application.
THE AROMAS IN EACH
FORMULA ARE VERY SPECIAL,
WITH EACH PRODUCT HAVING
A DIFFERENT SCENT. WHAT IS
THE IDEA BEHIND THIS?
We wanted the entire experience
of Retreatment Botanics to refl ect a
Gaia treatment, including the aromas
we use in the spa itself, natural scents
of the beautiful land that Gaia sits
on, and the trees, bushes and shrubs
that grow from it.
Each product has its own unique
scent made from pure essential
oils that evokes the experience of
being at Gaia. For example, our
Calm Essential Oil Blend – with
sandalwood, ylang ylang, lemon
myrtle, mandarin and lime, is the
signature scent of Gaia Spa. Our
therapists use it to guide you into
deep relaxation at the beginning of
every treatment.
Wild Kakadu Hand and Body
Cream is scented with rose,
geranium, citrus, rosemary leaf and
lavender to deliver an uplifting but
calming hand and body massage at
home. A third example is Radiance
Cream Cleanser, which uses a
refreshing blend of citrus oils with
bergamot and rose. This is a beautiful
way to begin and end the day –
cleansing the skin as you inhale the
exquisite blend!
And of course, Olivia just loves
the stunning yet delicate aromas
in our serums – they smell so good,
lifting the spirit as you apply them
to your skin.
HOW QUICKLY CAN WE EXPECT
TO SEE RESULTS?
It was important to Olivia, the Gaia
Directors, me and the entire team
that we create a pure performance
range that delivers results from the
very fi rst application. So, what you
will see is softer, calmer and more
radiant skin from your fi rst use.
These results will only improve with
continued use. The skin renews itself
around every four weeks or so. After
four to six weeks, you will notice
really incredible results. CBM
