Roses for spring? Groundbreaking. Miranda Priestly may have been onto something when she poo-pooed floral fashion for the change of season in the 2006 film, The Devil Wears Prada. But when it comes to beauty, we can’t get enough of roses. In particular, Jurlique’s Rare Rose skincare collection.

Aside from bursting with the goodness of rose oil, it’s available in eco-friendly packaging, which we loveJurlique’s goal is to reach 100 percent reusable or recyclable packaging by the middle of 2024. Its Rare Rose range kicks off the eco-friendly packaging makeover with up to 94 percent recyclable packaging. Cartons are locally produced, made with certified sustainable materials that are 100 percent kerbside recyclable. Jurlique’s frosted and translucent Rare Rose bottles are also 100 percent recyclable and made using recycled content. The droppers, pumps, caps and tubes are recyclable in-store via Terracycle.

Inside the packaging, a world of sensorial skincare awaits. Think: botanical-rich ingredients that help to elevate your self-care ritual and the scent of rare roses that will instantly relax and soothe. Not only that, but you’ll receive nourishing, long lasting hydration. Let’s take a look at the Rare Rose Range
