The Lilly pilly fruit is adorable...as well as the other names 
Seriously though, I like the basis and origin of their products because they have longevity with proven results(all except for Lilly pilly never heard of that fruit before). How the work synergistically is another story, as we all know. Are you thinking about bringing this on board? I will sign up to be a guinea pig for samples!! |

OK, I am going to "harvest" mum & dad's Lilly Pilly tree when I go home next month!! And here I was thinking it was only good for Jam!! Gonna put on a mask and forage for Wattle too (wattle gives me asthma, so better go industrial  )
Man, between seeing this and discovering that the Simplicite line from Aus uses Flannel Flowers in some products i am starting to feel rather patriotic all of a sudden.
I somehow remember using Madame Korner skincare when I was a wee lass... but I think it was very different to the range on that sight.
Dag #1 signing off. |

The Lilly Pilly is an evergreen tree/shrub. They get a kind of pinky-red berry on them in winter (I think) that I have never eaten raw (I think they are a bit sour) but they make awesome jam!! yum yum!!
Here is a pic of the tree /shrub with its berries. You can see a close up on this link http://science.uniserve.edu.au/school/curric/stage4_5/nativeplants/gallery/lillypilly/lpfruitbig.jpg
Of course thre are different varieties whose fruit and flowers vary a bit. |

Well, there is L.P. fruit extract in the shampoo, also in the refining rose hip scrub, and in the clarifying rose hip wash.
Didn't find it in the "8th natural wonder", purifying cream cleanser and replenishing moisture cream. |
