SAVAR

"We’ve been trying out Savar’s latest, their Energising Body Wash for the last few weeks and have loved it. It’s especially welcoming on these cold mornings – the Lemon scent is so refreshing and sets you up nicely for the day ahead. Having really sensitive skin I’m quite picky when it comes to using a body wash, and after a month of using Savar’s Body Wash, I’m impressed and my skin hasn’t protested using something new! It comes in a beautiful 500ml glass bottle and you don’t need alot so it will last for ages. I’ve had my bottle for over a month now and I’m not even halfway through. For both men and woman and can even be used as a natural shampoo. Made in New Zealand and 99% natural it’s a win win! It would also make a lovely gift for someone too."

Savar Advanced Hand Repair and Limited Edition Body Lotion

"Savar skincare is a brand that I was introduced to by my partner a few years ago as he uses some of the products. Savar is a New Zealand brand and their skin care is NZ made also using NZ ingredients... better still, the range is 99% natural. Their hand cream is my absolute favourite product, it doesn't leave my handbag, but I wanted to let you know about one of their new products... A limited edition body lotion for Mother's Day. It smells divine and is made with NZ primrose oil, organic fig extract and one of my most loved flowers, passionflower. The body lotion is beautifully packaged and comes in a 500ml bottle so will last for a long time. The bottle is made of glass so can be up-cycled; when you are finished peel the label off and re use as a liquid soap dispenser or vase."

"My latest purchase from the beautiful Savar range of products was the Jet Set Travel Treats - what can I say these balms are beautiful! The Jet Set First Aid Balm is a must have, it works absolute wonders on cold sores, healing the blister before it has time to scab or crack and become nasty. It also works brilliantly on nasty grazes leaving no room for infection! The Magic Rescue Balm works it's magic on anything dry and is a fantastic cuticle balm. The Temple Relief Balm is exactly that - very calming and works extremely well clearing sinuses. I love these products - they are a must for any traveller. Thanks Savar"

"I’m a big fan of New Zealand skincare company Savar, not just because their products actually work and their packaging is sleek and beautifully understated, but also because of the totally non-nonsense modus operandi behind the creation of each of their releases. They do what they say and they do it well - with minimal frippery or overblown ad campaigns. Their latest offering - Essential Cleansing Lotion - is no different, and a brilliant multitasker to boot. For a start, it gently and effectively removes all traces of makeup - including mascara - and feels like heaven on the skin, making it perfect for dry or sensitive types. In addition, it does double-duty as an exfoliant - making it a new must-have in my travel bag. Just combine two tablespoons of instant oats (the go-to natural ingredient for gorgeously buffed skin) with two tablespoons of Essential Cleansing Lotion and you have an inexpensive, easy as gentle exfoliator. Magic!"
