Is buying KIWI important to you?

What comes to mind when we showcase a product from an NZ brand?  What have we come to expect from a Kiwi skin care or cosmetic company?

Kiwi beauty brands feed into the belief (and thriving sector of the industry) that natural is best for our bodies.  And it seems that by starting from this beautiful landscape a brand is on the right path - all they need to do is to continue to be guided by the land around them.  Any great product starts with great ingredients.  Ingredients that have been used for centuries before being overlooked for fancy packaging, glossy advertising and long ingredient list. 

Sustainably grown local ingredients.  Recyclable packaging that won't harm the land that has gifted us with the power of these ingredients. Giving back to the local communities that support the brand and help them grow.  Combine these factors with good ole Kiwi ingenuity and it's no surprise that Kiwi Beauty Brands are a force to be reckoned with.

Just look at Kiwi brand Wild Ferns.  Their motto is Committed to New Zealand, Committed to you.  Wild Ferns' philosophy is to ensure the most important ingredients and components come from natural, ethical, and sustainable sources; retaining and protecting the clean, green beauty that is New Zealand.

All Wild Fern products are 100% New Zealand Made, not tested on animals, environmentally friendly packaged, Sodium Lauryl Sulphate free, Paraben Free and Mineral Oil free.

We're going to be sending out twenty Wild Ferns Autumn Glow sets for review.  

Each set contains:

  • Replenishing Day Creme - A beautiful crème containing premium certified Manuka Honey 80+ for daily hydration and nourishment. A potent blend of essential fatty acid rich oils of Evening Primrose, Avocado, Olive and Raspberry Seed provide instant hydration and softness, while Chamomile helps calm and soothe irritated skin for a healthier, more radiant complexion. 
  • Ultra Enriching Night Creme - This night crème contains premium certified Manuka Honey 80+ with carefully selected ingredients that nourish and replenish the skin while you sleep. Powerful antioxidant Co Enzyme Q10 combines with moisturising Apricot Kernel and Jojoba Oils to help your skin retain moisture, smooth dry lines and preserve elasticity. Vitamin A and Buttermilk help promote cell renewal. 
  • Intensive Refining Eye Creme - This intensive eye crème containing premium certified Manuka Honey 80+ has been specially formulated to be used around the eye area to hydrate, brighten and soothe the skin. Rosehip, Borage, Wheatgerm and Hazelnut oils will soothe and soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while vitamins A, C and E provide high antioxidants which will help to stimulate collagen production.
  • Radiance Renewal Facial Serum - A lightweight serum designed to penetrate the skin and deliver many skin loving ingredients. Premium certified Manuka Honey 80+ and powerful antioxidant Vitamins A, C and E combine with a potent blend of Sweet Almond, Rosehip and Evening Primrose oils to moisturise, nourish and help protect skin from future damage. Royal Jelly and Bee Pollen regenerate and rejuvenate the complexion for a radiant, healthy glow.

All Manuka Honey used in Wild Fern products is guaranteed to contain at least 80% Manuka Pollen – ensuring a skin care experience like no other.  The products feature formulas containing more ingredients from nature and a more natural preservative system. 

So how about you?  Are you in love with NZ beauty brands?  Is it important to you to support your local brands?  When looking for a new product do you opt to try Kiwi first?  Have you tried any Wild Ferns products before?

I have not tried this brand before but have friends who have and love it. What a beautiful product range! I love and trust our products that are made here in Aotearoa! Gorgeous! I would love to give these a trial!

Pick me as your honey bee. I love Nz products and Manuka honey has so many benefits would love to try this set out to see the improvements

9th April, 2017

I'd like to use more Kiwi products, unfortunately I'm not aware of many. When I think of beauty products it's the big international names that come to mind first. However in saying that I believe its important to support kiwi brands so I would love to try Wild Fern products in the future.

8th April, 2017

This brand and set looks absolutely divine! I try and buy Kiwi as much as possible - hence I loved the BBBE NZ Brands boxes, totally amazing. NZ does so well in holding its own with beauty products, so what's not to love and support? Would love to try this brand too.

8th April, 2017

I'm always supportive of anything Kiwi - and the idea of supporting a skincare range made in New Zealand excites me. We love Manuka honey and use it whenever the kids are sick in drinks, so I love the idea of this being used as a base for skincare. Yummy!

I've never heard of wild ferns -I must check them out.They sound amazing. I always try to support NZ products. I love the fact that its 100% NZ made ( and not made in NZ with local and imported ingredients lol). We have such an awesome country with some amazing skin care ingredients just in our backyards. We're really lucky here in NZ

This brand sounds amazing. I love that they use Manuka honey in their products. I have not seen this brand in store yet but I always try to buy Nz products if I can. I really would love to review these for you. Their packaging is super cute too.

Natural, ethical and Sustainably grown products with recyclable packaging are all things I look for in products. I think it's important we support local products!! Manuka honey is incredible, I'd love to give this kit a go!

7th April, 2017

Love New Zealand products as usually made with such great ingredients. Haven't heard of this brand before but sounds great.

7th April, 2017

Buying Kiwi is important but in saying that it is not the be all and end all. I believe if we are all honest, we buy the products that work for us. But when it comes to honey we know that here in New Zealand we sell the best products that are totally natural. I would love the opportunity to review these products. Wild Ferns' I have not heard of until reading about them here now.

7th April, 2017

These products sound amazing! I'm currently using a couple of Manuka Honey products from a different Kiwi brand - will be interesting to see how they compare.

7th April, 2017

For me I base it on reviews it doesn't bother me too much where it's made however a brand like Oasis Beauty is a winner to me. I cannot wait to read this review particularly for the day/night creme. I've only tried some products instore but it didn't sway me to buy them. I'd love to know if this works well on mature skin.

7th April, 2017

I AM in love with NZ brands! So many have taken the natural stance the last few years and it works for my skin - whilst I do still have not all natural skincare products, I will mostly pick natural first. I've never heard of Wild Ferns before! Would love to give them a whirl.

6th April, 2017

I think it's really important to support Kiwi brands, especially if they are using locally sourced ingredients. It's also important that they are not tested on animals, are environmentally friendly packaged and Paraben Free. I love Essano products but also love the benefits from Manuka Honey. As my 40 year old(ish) skin is starting to show signs of wear and tear, I am using more serums and night creams to help my skin so would love the opportunity to see how this range of skin products compares! I am always proud to support Kiwi companies, especially if they're products are as good as they say they are!

6th April, 2017

I have never heard of Wild Ferns before and will look out for them now. It is always a pleasure and common sense to support a New Zealand. I am boycotting Cadbury at the moment because they are a company laying off workers. Manuka honey is not only a great product but one that we can take world wide. Adding value is the key. Definitely a brand to support!
