At Natio we have always taken a holistic approach to self-care, with the belief that beauty comes from within. We have always understood that mindfulness and taking the time to rest and reset is good for the mind, body, soul – and in turn, your beauty. The new Natio Utopia range puts this concept into practise, promoting a sense of calming tranquillity through the act of taking a moment of pause. For the first time, we are extending our body care offering, so you can feel rejuvenated from top to toe (literally!) with a new collection focused on hand and foot care.

Our hands and feet the brunt of so much work throughout the day, taking us on our journey and lifting endless daily tasks. Natio Utopia offers relief for hardworking hands and feet with a range of products to revive and replenish with a meditative moment of self-care.

Hardworking hands

Whether they’re tip-tapping at a keyboard or laying bricks, your hands do plenty of hard work every day. Treat them to an at-home spa experience that will leave skin supple and protected from the everyday with these two luxurious formulas.

Over the years you may have tried one of our bestselling hand creams – they have been a mainstay in our core range (and in our gloveboxes, handbags, vanity cabinets... you name it). For the first time, Natio is introducing a hand balm to infuse vital moisture, rich with emollients like Olive, Almond and Shea. The Utopia Divine Nurturing Hand Balm is just that – divine! It smells like a day spa and offers hands long lasting hydration while improving texture and protecting against moisture loss.

You know when you get a manicure, and at the very end the manicurist adds a cuticle oil that make you feel *chef’s kiss*? We have captured that feeling in a 15ml bottle. The Utopia Rich Revival Cuticle Oil can be used daily, so you don’t need to wait for your next salon visit to feel refreshed. This fragrance-free formula nurtures cuticles with Vitamin E, Jojoba and Coconut Oil for a luminous sheen that supports nail growth. Brush onto clean, dry nails and nail beds with fingertips until absorbed, then wipe away any excess.

Self-care for the soles

Your feet aren’t just a vehicle to get you from A to B, they’re integral of your daily journey and they deserve consideration and care to support this. The Utopia collection has been designed to honour your feet with three rejuvenating and revitalising formulas, so you can tread joyfully.

The first step (haha, step!) in your self-care routine for feet is the Utopia Zen Energy Foot Soak. A coarse blend of restorative minerals, herbs and citric fruits, the foot soak dissolves into a warm foot bath, where you can rest for up to 30 minutes and take the time to reset from the ground up. Calming Camphor Bark blends with Olive Oil, repairing Magnesium and refreshing Peppermint in an uplifting aromatic blend designed to recharge and revive.

Dry and dehydrated feet? Skip the sandpapery pumice stone and reach for the Utopia Sublime Renewal Foot Scrub. This exfoliant opts for natural Pumice, with emollient Olive Oil and a Coconut-derived cleanser to remove expired skin cells. Simply apply to damp skin and massage particularly dry areas, taking a moment to breathe deep. Rinse thoroughly and enjoy resurfaced and renewed skin.

Similar to our luxuriously rich hand balm, we have created our first ever lusciously thick, restorative Nourishing Nirvana Foot Balm to tend to dehydrated soles. Intensely nutritive, this balm leaves a revitalising protective barrier, leaving skin smooth, soft and serene with the help of Olive Oil and Vitamin E. You’ll feel like you’re walking on sunshine – or maybe a blanket of skin-loving botanicals.

The Utopia hand and foot care range is available now. Want to feel the product for yourself? Find your nearest Natio stockist here.

For over 30 years, providing plant-powered skincare solutions guided by the principles of Aromatherapy has been part of Natio’s heritage. Our dedication to nurturing and caring for your skin with cruelty-free ingredients derived from nature, extends to protecting our environment and the unique eco-system we call home here in Australia for years to come.

We believe that our beautiful planet deserves the same love and protection we give our skin, which is why we’ve always been committed to treading lightly on the planet. From our sourcing of raw materials, packaging and ingredients required to make our products, sustainability and reducing our environmental impact has played a key role across all aspects of our operations.

We’ve always been passionate about creating beautiful cosmetics that not only make you feel good, but that reflect our commitment to the environment. That’s why we’ve crafted our SHINE FROM WITHIN, mineral eyeshadow palettes from recycled and recyclable packaging.

If you’re close to hitting pan on your favourite palettes from the collection, there’s no need to worry as we’re here to make recycling a breeze! We’ve created a step-by-step guide for easy and responsible recycling:

How to recycle your palettes

STEP 1

Begin by carefully scoring the edges of your eyeshadow palette with a blunt knife. This will help to loosen the components and make it easier to disassemble.

STEP 2

Pry apart the outer casing from the inner palette. Once separated, remove the elastic band that holds the palette closed.

TIP: reduce waste by upcycling the elastic band into a hair tie.

STEP 3

Using the same blunt knife, carefully score along the cardboard layers of the inner palette. This will allow you to separate the cardboard layers with greater ease.

STEP 4

With your blunt knife, carefully lift and remove the eyeshadow pans from the cardboard casing. Clean any residual eyeshadow powder by rinsing the pans in warm water. Ensure that all is removed to ensure effective recycling.

STEP 5

Once the components are all disassembled and cleaned, responsibly dispose of them into your curbside recycling. The metal eyeshadow pans and cardboard can be placed into your curbside recycling.

Well done! Your eyeshadow palettes can now successfully go on to live another life.

We hope you’ll join us in treading lightly on the planet to minimise our environmental impact, together.

Let’s protect this beautiful land we call home for many years to come. Do you have other Natio empties ready for a second life?

What’s the 411 on the ‘glass skin’ trend? This term is being used to describe skin that isn't just free from blemishes, but is radiant and shines from within, so much so that your skin looks like porcelain. Originating from the Korean phrase ‘yuri pibu’, which translates to ‘glass skin’, the concept of glass skin is attainable through living a healthy lifestyle, hydrating and nourishing the skin with skin loving ingredients.  

This trend has rolled over into the beauty community with the rise of ‘glass skin makeup’. Which is essentially a similar concept to glass skin but without the rigorous 12-step-skincare-routine. Natio Colour Cosmetics has an array of products to help build the perfect skin loving, luminous base to achieve your best ‘glass skin makeup’. Follow our step-by-step guide below. 

Luminous, Pore Less & Porcelain Skin 

Porcelain skin starts with a flawless and hydrated base – using our Soft Focus Pore Perfecting Primer in the t-zone of your face will help minimise pores, imperfections and help reduce excess shine throughout the day. Combining this with our Luminous Pearl Perfecting Primer on your cheeks will help hydrate skin for a radiant appearance.  

These primers are infused with ingredients your skin will love - Jojoba, Pomegranate, Vitamin E, B5, C and Rosehip. Use these two primers alone for a more natural look, or move on to our Mineral Tinted Moisturiser for more coverage. 

 

Your Skin but Better – Mineral Tinted Moisturiser 

For additional lightweight coverage to enhance your complexion, introduce our new Mineral Tinted Moisturiser with SPF 50+ into your glass skin makeup routine. This radiant Mineral Tinted Moisturiser has very high protection SPF50+ and contains mineral zinc physical sunscreen filters to help protect against harmful UVA and UVB rays. Helping to protect your skin from pre-mature ageing.  

As we applied the luminous primer to the cheeks of the face, this will help transform the the Mineral Tinted Moisturiser to be dewier in these areas for that glass-like-appearance, whilst keeping your t-zone under control. For further coverage under the eyes or to conceal blemishes, lightly pat in our Under Eye Cushion Concealer once the Mineral Tinted Moisturiser has been applied. Lightly set the T-zone with our Pressed Powder to reduce shine throughout the day.  

TIP: Don’t overdo it on the pressed powder to ensure the base of the makeup is kept light and dewy for that glass-like appearance. 

Add some Colour with our Cream Sticks  

To finish off your radiant look, our range of cream sticks melt into the face and hydrate with rich moisturising cocoa butter and carnauba wax for a silky and smooth application. Using a cream stick over a powdered blush, bronzer or highlighter ensures the dewiness of the skin is obtained. Add the Cream Stick Bronzer to the hollows of your cheeks, around the temples and on the jawline to add depth to the face. 

Our Cream Stick Blusher can be applied to the apples of the cheeks and lightly across the nose for a sun-kissed look. To bring forth features on the face like the cheekbones, eyebrow bone, cupid’s bow and the tip of the nose, apply our Cream Stick Highlighter to these areas.  

 

Finish off with your go-to brow routine, some mascara and your favourite lippy and voila -you now have easily obtained glass-skin and are ready to tackle any new and emerging beauty trends that come your way!  

For those of us who can remember all the lyrics to Salt n Pepa, 'Push It', it’s probably time to reconsider the products you use to get the best out of your makeup. Introducing every person’s secret weapon a blurring, pore minimising, mattifying, creamy primer.

Soft Focus Pore Perfecting Primer

Welcome to the chat, soft focus pore perfecting primer. This beauty balms lasts beyond your expectations to help secure and protect your base so that you can focus on other important tasks at hand. Take it from me this primer instantly creates a smooth, silky base for a soft-focus natural look, and now has earnt it’s place in my daily routine.

What makes it different to other primers?

It is formulated with a specialised combination of waxes, antioxidants and natural oils to smooth, protect and create the perfect base for your makeup – and I don’t mean Ace of Base that other critically acclaimed 90’s era lyricist. Simply put, the primer will ensure that the investment you have made in the products to follow, foundation, makeup lasts longer and gets you a perfectly natural result.

How to apply

To achieve the best results, I like to dot the primer onto my forehead, cheeks, chin and nose and gently massage into my skin with our Apply and Prime Application Brush, avoiding my eye area where the skin is very delicate. A little goes a long way with this product so start small and add as needed. On my 40’s something skin I can see instant results, pores, redness, fine lines are reduced, and my foundation applies like a dream and stays all day.

Clear skin comes down to a few things: genetics, skin hygiene and skincare formula choices. While you can’t change your genes, you can control the other two factors – and 2 out of 3 isn’t bad! See, clear skin can be achievable when you take the right steps, with the right products. Blemishes, clogged pores or blackheads can be managed – even banished -  by seeking out some specific ingredients within your face wash, toner and other skincare steps. Learning how to target and treat your skin’s issues by focusing on certain ingredients can make the world of difference to your confidence and help promote clearer skin.  

Let’s start! 

Face Wash

Cleanliness is key, but make it gentle. And smart. Starting and ending the day with clean, balanced skin is the best first step to your skin becoming clearer. Formula matters, and a good cleanser will be both effective and mindful of stripping vital moisture, with a blend of ingredients that care and actively work to improve your skin’s condition. Case in point: our Men Plus Fresh Face Foam Cleanser. Containing antioxidant rich Vitamin C and moisturising Hyaluronate, the proactive free radical-fighting formula helps fade visible signs of ageing, hyperpigmentation and can promote a brighter complexion while hydrating and maintaining skin’s moisture balance, without clogging pores. 

Tip: Cleansing and showering right after a workout can remove impurities, sweat, dirt, oil and bacteria built up from a workout. Without doing this, blemish-causing bacteria can be left on the skin and can cause break outs on the face, back and chest. 

BHA Exfoliants

Exfoliation is that extra step you need to take to keep congestion at bay and skin clear. Takes 30 seconds, makes a big difference. A chemical exfoliant is great, sidestepping the rough buffing that can happen with traditional physical scrubs (those with grit to them). Milder than their physical cousins,  chemical exfoliators like Natio men plus our Light and Tone BHA Exfoliant work to dissolve away rather than slough away expired skin. The hero ingredient? Salicylic acid, which stimulates cell turnover and helps reduce blackheads, whiteheads and the incidence of future breakouts. So easy, so good. 

Tip: When using a chemical exfoliant, we recommend that it is used during your night time skin routine to give it maximum time on your skin before washing again.  

Facial Toners

Forgotten heroes. Face toners are often overlooked within a skincare routine, (wrongly!) perceived as having no legitimate “purpose”. However, good toners – those with purpose-selected botanical and active ingredients - do substantial heavy lifting for skin, helping to remove surface impurities and balance natural moisture levels, leaving the complexion clean, soothed and primed to help better absorb the products that follow. Take our Natio men plus’ Detoxifying Toning Tonic, This Type A heavy-hitter is no slouch in the skincare game, containing both blemish fighting Witch Hazel and antioxidant healer, Vitamin C.  A power duo, Witch Hazel aids helps shrink pores, prevents acne-causing bacteria from inhabiting your skin and reduces inflammation while Vitamin C helps accelerate wound healing (ie. blemishes that have been picked at tsk tsk) and decrease hyperpigmentation caused by post-blemish marks. 

Facial Moisturisers

A comfortable, hydrating, non-greasy moisturiser is a must, day and night. And it’s even better if it contains high performance ingredients, like Natio men plus Age Defence Face Moisturiser. First up - antioxidants, which fight skin ageing free radicals and blemishes caused by impurities. Pow! Second- Retinyl Palmitate, a stable and gentle form of retinol known for its effectiveness in reducing signs of aging and suitability for those with blemish-prone skin. Third– Niacinamide, which soothes, helps hydrate and minimises irritation. Yep, it’s a triple threat. 

Sun Protection

A vital step for clear, healthy skin is incorporating SPF into your daily routine*. It’s a must! A high performance SPF has UVA/UVB protection and a minimum SPF 50+ which will not only protect your skin from harmful UV rays but will also help prevent damage and accelerated ageing. Without consistent use of an SPF, hyperpigmentation  - aka dark spots or red spots left on your skin from acne – is a real threat. Erm, no thanks. Lightweight and non-greasy, the two-in-one Natio men plus Age Protect Face Lotion SPF 50+ is an easy multitasker that works perfectly on all skin types. Make it your last step in any morning routine and keep it on hand for reapplication throughout the day, and you’re golden. 

Eye Cream

They say, ‘the eyes are the windows to the soul’, and having tired, puffy eyes can be a key indicator to whether you’ve had a good night’s kip. The skin around your eyes is much thinner than the rest of your face, so it holds less moisture and is more susceptible to premature signs of ageing. Adding a quality eye cream to your night routine is quick and easy, and will help liberate eyes from puffiness, fine lines and dark circles. Combining hyper-hydrating, skin plumping Sodium Hyaluronate and brightening Vitamin C, Natio men plus Energising Eye Cream helps to awaken tired eyes for a fresher, more youthful look. 

So, you now know what ingredients to look for in each step of your skincare routine. Natio’s men plus collection has been made for men who want to elevate their current skin routine to help promote clearer skin. The ingredients you want, they’re there. You can shop the collection here.  

*Always read the label and follow the directions for use. Sunscreens are only one component of sun protection.  Prolonged high-risk sun exposure should be avoided. Frequent use and re-application in accordance with directions is required for effective sun protection. 

Let's talk about skin. It’s the body’s largest organ, protecting us from the elements and keeping everything functioning smoothly. Just like a nutritious diet, regular exercise and enough sleep, a daily skincare routine is essential for overall health- and yep- that applies to men too!

Men vs Women: Understanding the skin differences

While men and women share the same fundamental skin biology, there are some key differences when it comes to their skin's needs:

• Oil Production: Testosterone amps up oil production in men's skin, making it oilier and more prone to breakouts.
• Shaving Stress: Daily shaving disrupts the skin's natural barrier, leading to irritation and dryness.
• Sun Safety Gap: Unfortunately, according to the Cancer Council, men are less likely to wear sunscreen, putting them at a higher risk of skin cancer (source: cancer council).

Can’t I just borrow my partners products?

Sharing is caring, but not when it comes to skincare! Your partner’s products might be perfect for their skin type, but they might not be right for yours. Opting for a skincare routine specifically formulated for men’s needs ensures you are addressing your skin’s unique concerns.

Building a strong skincare routine: Start simple, build smart

The best skincare routine is one you can stick to. Here is a beginner friendly approach:

• Cleanse: Wash away dirt, oil, and impurities with a foaming cleanser designed for men's skin.
• Moisturise: Hydration is key! Choose a moisturiser that's lightweight and non greasy.
• SPF (morning only): This is non-negotiable! Daily sunscreen protects your skin from harmful UV rays that can cause premature aging and skin cancer (Sunscreens are only one component of sun protection. Prolonged high-risk sun exposure should be avoided. Frequent use and re-application in accordance with directions is required for effective sun protection).

Level up your routine

Once you have the basics down, consider adding these:

• Exfoliator: Buffs away dead skin cells promoting a brighter and more toned complexion
• Toner: Detox skin from environmental aggressors like pollution while strengthen the skins moisture barrier
• Eye Cream: Targets dark circles and puffiness for an energised look.
• Beard Oil: Soothes and conditions your beard while restoring your skin's barrier after shaving. The ideal product if your beard gets itchy!

Nature Nurtures Best

The best way to nourish, repair and care for skin is to be sensibly natural, utilising powerful actives with botanical extracts specifically chosen for men’s skin. One hero ingredient is Mountain Pepper Berry (Tasmannia Lanceolata), a native plant found in the cool rainforests in the south-eastern region of Australia. It's packed with vitamins, antioxidants and phytoactives that promote skin elasticity and even skin tone. But it doesn’t end there, read more about the active ingredients in Natio men plus here.

Building a personalised skincare routine can be a game-changer for your skin's health and Natio men plus is here to take your skin health to the next level, giving you the products and ingredients you need to feel confident and look your best. Natio men plus is brought to you by the #1 Men’s Facial Skincare Brand in Community Pharmacy* so when you shop with Natio you know you’re shopping from an Australian brand you can trust.

There’s nothing worse than shopping for your new holy grail lippy, only to find when you return home that your newly purchased lip stick is sadly not the shade for you.

Still unsure of where it all went oh-so-wrong, you persevere on your lipstick pursuit hoping that eventually, by some sheer luck you’ll strike gold and finally find your shade.

But alas, the lipstick hunt overcomes you, and you end up going back to the one, tried and true lipstick you discovered back when you were 20. But there’s no fun in that – after all, you should be able to confidently build a collection of lip colours that can reflect your every mood, or suit that makeup look you saw on Pinterest.

Never fear, knowing how to find the perfect lip colour doesn’t have to be a disappointing feat, nor a game of chance. While knowing how to find the perfect lip shade may not technically be considered an “art form”, there is in fact some art theory involved based on identifying your undertone.

Let us guide you through how to find your most complimentary lipstick shade with our trusty old friend, the colour wheel! But first, what exactly is an undertone anyway?

What is your skin undertone?

While you may be on the fair or darker side, your skin undertone isn’t the same as your actual skin tone.

Your undertone is the natural hue that peeks through the surface of your skin, giving pigment to your beautiful skin tone. For many, we assume that just because we’re fair skinned we must therefore have a cool undertone... right? We're here to debunk this and teach you that it is possible to be fair skinned and not necessarily have a cool undertone like you may suspect.

There are 3 undertones which can be identified by assessing the colour of your veins and in conjunction with our colour wheel. These are:

1. Cool undertone = blue or purple veins
2. Warm undertone = green or olive veins
3. Neutral undertone = blue or green veins

When assessing your undertone, it’s also helpful to think about whether you typically wear gold or silver jewellery. For those who love a splash of silver, this typically flatters cooler undertones, whereas gold is known to be complimentary to warmer undertones. For the lucky ones that can wear both, guess what? You’re most likely a neutral undertone!

Still not convinced you’ve found your undertone based on your vein colour? Don’t you worry, we wouldn’t leave it at just that. Simply take the underside of your forearm and compare the closest match to your skin tone on the colour wheel below. This will assist you with more accurately identifying your undertone.

While this method isn’t foolproof, you’ll have a much better understanding to help you shop your most flattering shade to complete your makeup looks.

How to find your lip shade

Now that you’ve completed your colour wheel analysis, let’s de-code this to help you shop your most flattering lip shade hues.

• Cool undertone (blue/purple veins) = Blue or purple lipstick hues
• Warm (green/olive veins) = Red or orange lipstick hues
• Neutral (blue/green veins) = Any lipstick hue

Shop your most flattering lip shades

After all this analysis, you’re now ready to shop your perfect lipstick!

Find our carefully curated collections of lipstick shades perfectly suited to each undertone below:

• Lip shades for cool undertones
• Lip shades for warm undertones
• Lip shades for neutral undertones
  

While it’s helpful to know your undertone to provide you with confidence when shopping for a new lipstick, at the end of the day you should always choose the lip stick that will have you feeling your most comfortable, confident self!

After all, there's no point in buying a lipstick you won’t get wear out of!

The latest trend in colour analysis is Seasonal Colour Analysis and finding out your true season has become the talk of social media. This analysis merges colour psychology with seasonal palette theory, categorising individuals into the four seasons depending on your skin tone, undertone, eye colour, hair and lip colour. The result is a personalised colour palette designed to enhance and complement one’s unique features.  

The first step of this is defining your skin undertone, your skin can either have warm, neutral or cool undertones. See the chart below to help determine which undertone your skin may be. 

Winter [cool + dark]

Cool undertones with Dark Hair – individuals who identify as winter look their best in true blacks and whites as these hues bring out the coolness in their undertone. Winters are advised to steer clear of middle-of-the-road colours and earth tones as these colours tend to skew towards being warmer. Adding vibrant hues to this subdued colour palette becomes effortless by integrating shades from the Rose Quarts and Graceful Amethyst Mineral Eyeshadow Palette. The inclusion of bright, cool-toned pinks, purples, greens and blues serves as a complementary enhancement to Winter’s complexion.  

Spring [warm + light]

Warm undertones with light hair – People who identify as Spring look best in cheerful colours such as aqua, salmon and turquoise, warm neutrals, khaki and stone. Blacks, whites, bright shades and pastels should be avoided as they lean towards being cooler in nature and may risk washing out lighter skin tones. To bring warmth to your make up look, we suggest that Spring individuals pair our Golden Citrine and Luminous Amber for all the beautiful warm browns, ambers and khaki colours.  

Autumn [warm + dark]

Warm undertones with dark hair – Autumn tones look best in earthy shades such as golden browns, olives and warm greys. These darker hues bring out their dark features such as brown eyes or dark brown hair. It is also optional to add a small amount of warm toned greens and blues for a small pop of colour. They should avoid blacks, whites, bright shades and pastels due to being a cooler hue. The warm hues from our Luminous Amber and Golden Citrine Mineral eyeshadow palette have a range of light golden browns to rich dark ambers to complement an Autumn’s complexion. 

Summer [cool + light]

Cool undertones with light hair – Summer tones are best suited for muted colours, including blue-greys, heathers, rose-browns. Ensuring any pastel colours added are soft, cool and light. These colours include baby blues, soft pinks and icy whites. The cool-toned blues and greys in our Marine Lapis Mineral Eyeshadow palette combined with the heathers and rose browns in our Earthy Tektites palette creates depth and dimension.
