The unisex range comprises five products that can be blended together to suit a user’s individual skincare needs. For example, the exfoliating powder can be combined with the multi-use balm to create a smoothing lip treatment.

The range taps into the wider industry trend for natural beauty with its list of plant-based ingredients including essential oils derived from fruits, flowers, leaves, bark and vegetables.

Founder Alexandra Nodes highlights the story of creative manager at Sony Music Matilda Kahl, who wears the same clothes to work each day to remove the stress of choosing what to wear, as the main inspiration behind the range. ‘We decided to simplify our line to five products, one of each type, to help remove the clutter, confusion and stress from your daily skin needs,’ says Nodes.
