Dichotomy Eye Serum is our happy collision of two historic foes. In the blue corner: Nature. Wild, untethered nature stacked with the supernatural benefits of Norwegian Kelp, Swamp Maple, Horopito, St Paul’s Wort and Persian Silk Tree. The red corner: Science, brandishing clinical evidence and proven efficacy like a killer dance move. Apart, they are tremendous. Colliding together, they are the future. Dichotomy is now.

 

DIRECTIONS

Dot a small amount of serum around the orbital bone, working from the inner to the outer corners of the skin around your eye area.

 

5 Things you need to know:

 

1/ Norwegian kelp, Persian Silk and Gotu Kola help Dichotomy to reduce sagging skin and dark circles caused by dehydration, stress and not enough sleep.

 

2/ Dichotomy optimizes hydrous flow and moderates water circulation, reducing unnecessary puffiness caused by modern lifestyle excesses.

 

3/ Dichotomy supports collagen production, provides tensile support to blood vessels and improves skin elasticity. Crucial to maintaining healthy skin around the sensitive areas of the eyes.

 

4/ Dichotomy promotes the synthesis of essential lipids and proteins essential to healthy, youthful looking skin.  Attacks crow's feet by boosting elasticity and improving firmness of the sensitive skin around the eyes.

 

5/ Rich in Kakadu Plum, the world's natural Vitamin C superhero.

The dark moon is invisible to Earth, silent and hidden in shadow, a deep breath taken before each lunar cycle. ‘Dark Moon’ by Triumph & Disaster represents this concept of reflection and recovery and is designed to work with our body’s natural rhythm. A scientifically engineered hydrating cream, Dark Moon utilises Vitamin C, Olive and Horopito to facilitate healthy, vibrant skin; working silently and naturally in the deep hours before dawn.

 

DIRECTIONS

Apply daily prior to bed, or as a top up to your daily moisturising routine. 

 

5 Things you need to know:

1/ Engineered to enhance collagen production using multiple sources rich in Vitamin C such as Kakadu plum, Swamp maple, and Rosemary. Vitamin C is for Collagen.

 

2/ Hydration for regeneration. Best used as a night cream, this is a light hydrating phenomenon. Feels effortless on the skin whilst delivering outstanding hydration.

 

3/ Perfect aid for overnight rejuvenation rich in Swamp Maple and its proven pro-collagen and pro-elastin qualities. Clinical trials show the long-term efficacy of this polyphenolic extract, a wonder ingredient that promotes healthy collagen production.

 

4/ Go easy, don’t overload. We believe heavy, thick night creams are counter-productive to the regenerative process. Our role is to facilitate repair not hinder it by overloading the system with synthetic obstacles that then need to be flushed.

 

5/ Clinically proven - We have investigated and adopted the very latest science combined with our knowledge and philosophy of skin to promote the healthiest skin we can. The science we use is clinically proven, the ingredients traceable and sustainable, the ethos pure and green.

Volcanic Ash & Green Clay Face Scrub

Skin grows old and peels naturally. Left to their own devices dead layers of skin will sit on the surface until they either flake or are brushed away. Beneath dead skin pores build up deposits of sebum, the oil our skin naturally produces. Over time these deposits collect particles of dirt creating blackheads and unhealthy looking skin. Regular exfoliation with a well balanced and complete face scrub like Rock & Roll Face Scrub will remove this build up of unwanted material, cleaning out dirty pores and revealing the fresh layers of good skin underneath. 

Infused with a unique natural fragrance that we call 'Smoke and Wood', Rock & Roll Face Scrub is engineered with safe, efficient science combined with natural ingredients.

This Old-Fashioned Shave Cream 90ml Tube reminds us that shaving is a skill passed down from generation to generation and as such, a thing of true value, like a good piece of advice. It's part ritual, part preparation, all man time.

Less is more. Especially when it comes to your face. Cleaning with normal soap will strip skin of natural oils and protective qualities leaving it dry and exposed.

A gentle, natural, peppermint scented formulation designed for everyday use 'Ritual' gently dissolves grime while toning the skin, leaving you feeling fresh and looking bright.

When it comes to crafting a look and a personal style, we believe in wearing your heart on your sleeve and shooting for the end zone. Coltrane clay delivers on just such an ethos.
