If you hear Nan’s voice in your head telling you to reach for the garlic and ginger instead of the cold and flu meds, we guarantee this all-in-one skin nourishing balm will tickle your natural remedies fancy.
Clean skincare is understandably having a moment and The Very Good Goo really understood the assignment when designing the Intensive Care Skin Balm. Packed with natural ingredients and free from any synthetic ingredients, this Australian-owned and made balm embodies the clean cosmetics ethos from its gooey insides to the totally plastic-free tin.
The key to the self-described goo’s success can be found in the stellar lineup of natural ingredients. Safflower oil hydrates and soothes, apricot oil improves skin tone and radiance, and chamomile works hard to neutralise free radicals. The likes of calendula, cocoa, jojoba, and geranium extracts also lend their strengths to this calming yellow goo.
Leaning in hard to versatility, this is the one product you’ll want to keep in your bag for all occasions. Hydrating dry skin and soothing chapped lips are only the beginning for this total body balm. Treat your cuticles to some replenishing goodness or work a little bit through your locks to restore and define your curls. A thin layer also works wonders as a lightweight primer to give your skin a nourishing base under makeup that will keep your skin hydrated and vibrant all day.
Not only will your skin feel fantastic but so will your conscience, knowing that the juicy orange tin housing the balm is totally recyclable. Made from aluminium, it’s super lightweight, and it can go straight into the recycling bin once you’ve used up every last bit of balm.
Every order receives free, carbon-neutral shipping Australia-wide and you can nab 15% off your first order with the code "GOO15". As if it couldn’t get any better, Very Good Goo will also plant a tree for every order placed.
