PURELY FIJI

One of the freshest, purest products coming out of the South Pacific is from Pure Fiji. Their skincare range has its beginnings in all kinds of plants, including passionflower, green coconut, sugar cane, lavender, mint, pineapple and papaya.

These freshly harvested ingredients are blended with coldpressed oils from wild-harvested coconuts as well as dilo, macadamia and skieci nuts, all of which possess medicinal and beautifying agents that nourish, moisturise and ultimately protect the skin. Deep- sea plants are also used in some of the formulations for their sun-protective properties and hydrating effects.

Pure Fiji is a feel-good product for other reasons too.

The company involves and supports as many local communities as possible in the creation of its products, and wild harvests many of the product ingredients, thus reducing the need for energy- sapping irrigation and fertilising. Bottles and jars used in packaging are from environmentally friendly PET, gift packaging is either handmade paper or baskets woven from natural fibres, and even the staff uniforms and linen used in Pure Fiji’s several spa operations are sundried to lessen the use of electricity.
