Jurlique is delighted to introduce a new scent to complement the much-loved Rose, Lavender and Citrus hand creams. NEW Jasmine Hand Cream is a rich, protective hand cream, infused with the living energy of Jurlique’s plants & flowers, to deeply moisture and restore smoothness to hands while imparting the beautiful aroma of Australian Jasmine.Jasmine Hand Cream provides long-lasting moisturisation and hydration with a special blend of natural ingredients including Safflower & Macadamia Oils, Honey, Glycerin & Aloe Vera. Calendula, Viola and Chamomile Extracts help to soothe and comfort skin whilst Carrot Root Extract and Marshmallow help to hydrate and soften skin, leaving skin feeling silky and supple.
The delicate star shaped jasmine, long the subject of rituals in ancient cultures, is renowned for its nightly blooming ritual and distinctive scent. In traditional aromatherapy Jasmine is known to have therapeutic properties and its calming and soothing effects make it an ideal aroma for body and bath products. One litre of “Jasmine absolute” is made from approximately eight million tiny white flowers, equating to one ton of Jasmine flowers to produce one litre of this precious essential oil. The Jasmine plant flowers all day but the intensity of the odour is most pronounced in the very late night / early morning hours, when the pollinators are out harvesting their nectar, which is why the flowers are best hand-picked at dawn.
The formulation contains no Parabens, PEGs, artificial colors, artificial fragrances or Sodium Lauryl Sulfate.
Sound good, right? The Jurlique Jasmine Hand Cream will retail for $27 AUD for 40ml and $55 AUD for 125ml. It will be available for Australian purchase from Jurlique stores, leading department stores, selected pharmacies and for International purchase via the Jurlique website.
Another bit of Jurlique news is regarding the initiative that they’re starting on the 22nd of March 2010 in Jurlique stores throughout Australia. It’s called “Give & Gift” and is in celebration of Earth Month in April this year. Customers are invited to return Jurlique packaging such as bottles or tubes in exchange for a 10% discount off replacement purchases. Give & Gift will be a permanent addition to the service in every Jurlique store and aims to raise awareness for responsible recycling. Very exciting!
