LanaB Holistic Skin Care and how it all began

After contributing natural skin care articles to a national magazine for over twenty years my life has changed dramatically. When I began writing for Grass Roots I was about 22 years old and the mother of two adorable little girls. My interest in natural beauty began through necessity as we didn’t have much money and I still wanted to care for my skin. I started out trying the basic skin care recipes that my mother swore by, milk baths, oatmeal bags and egg face masks. These really did work a treat but I couldn’t help myself and started to ‘tweak’ the basics and thus began an obsession that has turned into my online business, LanaB.

I am passionate about my skin and the skin of my daughters. From when they were born I was always conscious of the effect the sun had on their skin and as they grew older they became interested about skin care and we would make face masks and foot scrubs together, which they enjoyed. They both grew up watching me create products to write about and were often the ‘guinea pigs’ of such products. Now they are as involved with the products as I am and happily volunteer to try out any new recipes.

What we want to do is to give women skin care products that will nourish and rejuvenate their skin without adding harmful chemicals to their systems. The last thing the body needs are more free radicals to combat!

LanaB was created from the desire to remind women that natural based skin care products can be just as effective and definitely healthier for their skin and bodies than synthetic and chemical based products. We are a small 'boutique' business that has built somewhat of a 'cult' following!

The mass market of commercial beauty products and the marketing machines behind them can create the illusion that you are actually benefiting your skin using their products. I can’t deny some of these products do produce the skin to appear more youthful but the artificial substances within the products are then absorbed into your body adding free radicals, which can actually damage your skin even more. We at LanaB believe that skin care products should be made with all of you in mind, not just your appearance!

We have over twenty years experience creating natural products and are constantly researching new ingredients to add to our skin care range. We are extremely excited about the future of our business.

The products we make at LanaB are made in small batches so they are the freshest we can make them. They contain the best ingredients for your skin that in our opinion we can offer and they smell great. Ingredients such as Rose Hip Oil, Aloe Vera Gel, Vitamins E, A and C, and Spirulina all add special nutrients and goodness to the skin. Rose hip oil is often used in products made for stretch marks, burns, scars and mature dry skin.

Aloe Vera is also a great skin moisturiser that helps to keep skin supple by bringing oxygen to the cells, and therefore increasing the strength of skin tissue. It is very hydrating, softening, healing and also has anti-inflammatory properties.

Vitamin E helps protect against free radicals, relieves sunburn, skin irritations and softens fine lines and wrinkles, while Spirulina is an algae rich in vitamins, proteins and trace elements. We also wanted this range to be ultra feminine so the essential oils we use are truly decadent. Rose Geranium, lavender, lemon and lime are just some of our scents.

We also want to give our buyers great value for money so we have kept prices reasonable and offer a full money back guarantee if they need to return anything. Most of our products are under $20.00.

LanaB is a family owned skin care boutique business that is very proud of our Australian products. We sell them to you with absolute confidence and offer a full money back guarantee if you are not satisfied
