March 31, 2021 0 Comments

When you hear the word “algae” you probably picture an unkempt fish tank or a pond covered in growths of fluffy green plant matter. While algae may look like a plant, it is actually a group of photosynthetic eukaryotic microorganisms belonging to the taxonomical kingdom Protista.

Algae often gets a bad rap, particularly when it starts to grow out of control, but it isn’t all bad. In fact, certain types of algae can be quite beneficial for the human body. Algae is commonly found in dietary supplements for immune health and it can be a valuable source of protein and fiber.

An Overnight Mask Could Be the Key to Waking Up Glowing

March 19, 2021 0 Comments

When it comes to sleep, there’s a reason they call it “beauty sleep”. Though there’s a lot we don’t know about sleep, there are many things we do know. First and foremost, sleep is when your brain sorts through the day’s information, storing important tidbits away and creating long-term memories. It’s also a time when your body becomes flooded with hormones that help stimulate repair and regeneration.

When you fall asleep your body switches from survival mode to recovery mode. The average person starts to get sleepy around 9pm or when the sun has fully gone down, which is exactly when your skin starts to settle down as well. Over the next few hours is when your skin is the most primed to absorb topical treatments. This makes it the perfect time to use a treatment mask.

Tropic Takes on Racism – Building on the conversations from the past year

January 26, 2021 0 Comments

Welcome back to another issue of Tropic Takes on Racism. This time, we’ll be looking at how 2021 can build upon the conversations that were had in 2020.   

2020 – WHAT HAPPENED 

Following the murder of George Floyd, protests erupted throughout the UK from the Shetland Islands to Cornwall. Statues were toppled in Bristol, programmes like Little Britain were removed from streaming platforms and black squares were posted on social media in solidarity. 

Brits sympathised and were appalled with the stories of racism emerging from the US, and many saw this as the time to stand against the extent of racism and discrimination baked into British society.

While difficult conversations on race were had throughout 2020, with more people than ever before involved in the discussion, in 2021, it’s policy change that needs to happen.

PLANET DIARIES: WHY TAMANU OIL IS A CLEAN, GREEN, NOURISHING MACHINE

January 22, 2021 0 Comments

The tale of our Tamanu Balm, from nut to pot.. 

THE SEED OF AN IDEA 

There’s a lot of heart packed into this green all-in-one skincare saviour. The initial idea came to our Founder, Susie Ma, after one of our Ambassadors told Susie that she had a scar on her face from a car accident when she was younger. Susie wanted to create a product that could help with skin repair and reduce the appearance of scarring, and so the hunt for powerful plant ingredients began. 

GOING GREEN 

Indigenous to the islands of French Polynesia, the South Pacific and the Indian Ocean, is a little-known evergreen tree called the tamanu tree. From this tree grow small, sweet-smelling white flowers which produce fleshy fruit the size of an apricot, and it’s within this small fruit that the tamanu tree stores its skin-saving secret. Inside is a nut, which can be pressed Read the rest
