Byron Bay OZmetics Skin Care for Teens

One look at the ingredients label of teenage skincare products and Sharen Barbera and Kirsten Harris decided they had to produce a locally made, natural alternative.

After extensive research, they found a leading chemist who took on their cause, agreeing to create products using natural ingredients sourced in the pristine surrounds of Byron Bay on the New South Wales north coast. Their criteria? No petrochemicals. No artificial perfumes or colours. No testing on animals. Only naturally derived ingredients. They got their wish list and the products were made in Byron Bay. Six months later, Byron Bay OZmetics Co. is launched.

The products are made from a spring water base rather than alcohol, soap or oil, which can play havoc on teenage skin. The locally sourced spring water is purified through a UV filtering process (no chemicals are used) then combined with essential oils, medicinal herbs and plant extracts.

The best way to have healthy skin is to look after it from an early age. Byron Bay OZmetics Co. is a natural skincare range for teenagers that helps keep young skin natural and healthy.
