Tailored [skin-loving] Ingredients

Aqua (water)

[say it like] a•kwuh

What makes up the bulk of this formulation. Water is used as the base of many skincare products including Hydrate, as a solvent, because it is what the other ingredients in the formulation dissolve into, to create the formula (aka the end result).

Niacinamide

[say it like] neye•ah•sin•ah•meyed

I will help retain your skin's hydration, to keep your skin hydrated for longer. As well as this, I will reduce any redness in your skin.

Hyaluronic acid

[say it like] hi•yell•er•ron•ick acid

You're skin's going to love me because I'm a humectant, which means I actively draw (up to 1000x it's weight) water into your skin, to hydrate, plump and reduce fine lines.

NZ Kowhāi extract

[say it like] n•z kow•whai x•trackt

I will help soothe inflammation and fight bacteria in your skin.

Propanedial

[say it like] prop•in•id•ee•ull

This ingredient will increase the absorption of ingredients and enhance their effectiveness. It will also help moisturise your skin, leaving a smooth and dewy complexion.

Benzyl alcohol

[say it like] ben•zile al•kuh•hol

We're about to be very transparent with you here. This is our chosen preservative system in our skincare range. Benzyl alcohol is a powerful broad-spectrum anti-bacterial preservative used to stabilise skincare. It is multi-purpose (think Tailor) as it also helps dissolve other ingredients and decreases the viscosity (thickness) of formulas so they flow more easily.

Dehydroacetic acid

[say it like] dee•high•jrow•seat•ick•acid

One of our preservatives in Hydrate with a potent anti-fungal to keep this cleanser safe to use for longer - because we all love a long shelf life. When mixed (& matched) with benzyl alcohol they create a broad-spectrum preservative against yeasts, moulds and funguses. Take note, our preservative system is synthetically derived and is ECOCERT certified to be used in natural skincare.

How to Use

Apply 1-2 pumps of Hydrate to your face and neck morning and night.

Multi-targeting

Because who has one skin type / concern these days. Tailor is for everyone (yes, that includes your partner that sneakily uses it anyway), click on your skin type and we'll tell you why.

Breakout prone

You just wait till you hear these benefits to your skin. My NZ Kowhai Extract will soothe inflammation in your skin and fight bacteria, absolutely ideal for your skin type. Meanwhile, Niacinamide will help reduce redness and inflammation in your skin, as well as strengthens your skin barrier function, reducing any skin sensitivity and increasing hydration preservation. AKA, healthy looking skin.

Dry skin

You're going to love what I can provide your skin. My Hyaluronic Acid, a humectant which draws (up to 1000x it's weight) water into your skin, will deeply hydrate your skin type, giving a plump complexion. And the addition of Niacinamide (Vitamin B3 will help retain this hydration, keeping your skin hydrated for longer.

Oily skin

The right oily skincare routine isn’t only about only balancing oil production it needs to address hydration too. Oily skin types can still be prone to dehydration, and in fact skin oiliness can be worsened by dehydration that triggers overproduction of oil. My oil-free formulation also ensures that we are not adding additional oils to your skin.

Ageing skin

My Hyaluronic Acid will draw (up to 1000x its weight) water into your skin, to plump and minimises fine lines. Meanwhile, my Niacinamide (a Vitamin B3) reduces signs of ageing, by brightening your skin, increasing collagen production and reducing hyperpigmentation.

Combination skin

Parts of your skin are oily and parts of your skin are dry. I will help your dry patches with my Hyaluronic Acid serum which draws (up to 1000x its weight) into your skin, to deeply hydrate your skin, giving it a plump complexion. And with the assistance of Niacinamide (Vitamin B3), it will help retain this hydration, keeping your skin hydrated for longer.

Dehydrated skin

Did you know dehydrated skin indicates a lack of water? Don't worry, my Hyaluronic Acid will actively draw water into the skin and my Niacinamide (a Vitamin B3) will retain this hydration in your skin.

Uneven skin

My Niacinamide is going to thrive in your skin, as this Vitamin B3 helps brighten your complexion, increase collagen production and reduce hyperpigmentation.

Normal Skin

You're the easiest skin type to please. I will instantly boost and retain hydration, visibly plump and minimise any fine lines and soothe any redness and sensitivities. FYI, you take advantage of all my benefits.

Sensitive Skin

My NZ Kowhai Extract will soothe inflammation in your skin and fight bacteria, to protect your skin and reduce redness and irritation. I am also fragrance free. In conclusion, I'm ideal for your skin type.

What sort of packaging are we talking here?

Glass Bottle

The mission is clear. It’s literally in the name.

To offer skincare that’s tailored to your skin.

Tailored skincare means concise skincare. Multi-purpose products made to treat multiple skin concerns, in multiple ways, without needing to buy multiple bottles. Think a mask that works as an exfoliator and a spot treatment, a hyaluronic acid serum that is also a primer or a moisturiser that’s also an eye serum and an overnight mask.

When each product can work in multiple ways, it saves you buying a million products you’re never going to use. Buy stuff that works. And then works in another way. And another. And on the shelf.

Buy less, buy Tailor.

Not for mature, dry skim
