CONSCIOUS RETAIL THERAPY FOR A HAPPIER LIFESTYLE
From ethically sourced Bhutanese baby yak wool to socially conscious skincare tinctures, explore our planet-friendly essentials to create a happier lifestyle.
Nature connects us to our innate rhythm – there is a time for action and a time for rest, we expend and we replenish. The magic, as with everything, is in finding a balance that works for us.
While we all have different levels of access to being able to live and shop better, the heart of sustainability is about slowing down consumption and investing in essentials that we would love to last longer.
From sustainable materials and stylish design to ethical production and community building, here are two of our favourites that inspire conscious retail therapy for a happier lifestyle.
COMO SHAMBHALA BABY YAK SHAWL
From the mesmerising valleys of the Kingdom of Bhutan, envelop yourself in the timeless elegance of the COMO Shambhala Baby Yak Shawl. One of the world’s most beautiful fibres, baby yak wool is a softer, more delicate weave than cashmere.
Made from ultra-fine underbelly hair of baby yaks which is shed naturally during springtime, yak wool is a sustainable and renewable material in Bhutan. It is lustrous, lightweight and breathable, making it perfect through the seasons.
COMO Shambhala partners with artisans who work closely with herders from the Himalayan villages to ensure ethical practices and finest quality good for you, the environment and the community that produces it.
Expert craftsmanship for a unisex silhouette, the shawl delivers raw beauty and wearability anytime, anywhere. Comfortably wrap around the neck, drape on the shoulders, layer beneath accessories or use as a breastfeeding cover-up while you are on the go.
HAECKELS
Haeckels showcases skin, hair and body products championing an ocean-first philosophy. Packaged with recyclable or compostable materials, the skin-building products are made of natural ingredients from the surrounding coast of Margate, in the United Kingdom.
Based on the tradition of Thalassotherapy, Haeckels uses locally-grown botanicals and ECOCERT-certified ocean vegetable extracts rich in valuable vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and hygroscopic properties to capture water molecules on your skin’s surface.
From facial and hair cleansers, body balms and exfoliants to plumping serums and eye brighteners, ethically hand harvested seaweed is the base of all products. Loaded with anti-bacterial and inflammatory properties, it is three times more efficient than hyaluronic acid at hydration, and offers advanced moisturisation and restructuring action.
Reset yourself with the world’s natural beauty. Plan a trip, go for a swim or take the coastline’s natural goodness away with you in a Haeckels bottle.
With a focus on improving the mind, body and spirit, let our curated COMO Shambhala personal and home collections be a part of your wellness journey.
