to empower guests with a new beauty goal: 

to be a healthy beauty (inside and out) 

we are on a mission to make modern day guests feel more comfortable and confident in themselves in their everyday lives- effortlessly and in turn empower them- through beauty, to be the best versions of themselves.

not through mastering their winged eyeliner, or overlining there lips and selling them on their insecurities but by empowering them to enhance and reveal there natural beauty- with a new beauty goal that celebrates looking after yourself from the inside out, to look and feel like the healthiest version of themselves with products that reveal there natural beauty and amplify what is already there.

why? because feeling good in the skin we are in, in this modern day world- is truly everything. it could be the difference between killing that speech at work, landing that deal, striking up a convo with the barista, taking yourself out for a solo dinner date or negotiating a salary increase with your boss.

so guests- join us in aspiring to a more empowering beauty goal, 

to look and feel like the healthiest version of yourself,

to be a healthy beauty - 
inside & out. 

when was the last time you felt truly comfortable and confident in your own skin? odds are, you were probably on holiday somewhere, checked into a hotel- away from the stress of your everyday schedule.

picture this. you’ve just checked into the hotel, the worries on your mind start to dissipate, your biggest worry becomes what beach you're heading to. you spend your days lying in the sun, swimming in the ocean, sleeping 10 hours and eating well. 

the result? you look & feel refreshed, radiant, glowing, calm and sun kissed-  you look healthy.

in turn, you are inclined to wear less makeup and show off your skin- through a new found confidence and comfortability in yourself. 

we know this isn't the reality for your everyday.

you’re booked out and busy- chasing your tail trying to meet the demands of your jam packed schedule. 

living on the go and long winded beauty routines don't go hand in hand- so you opt to go without. 

we believe beauty shouldn't feel like a chore, adding more steps to your ever growing to do list. 

modern beauty should be the antidote to your stressful everyday life- a routine that is like a holiday in its application and aesthetic- easy, breezy- effortless. 

beauty that looks and feels like a holiday -even when life isn't.

go on- check in,
you (healthy) beauty!

love, 
hotel of beauty.

we believe being healthy means finding balance.

balance in formulation is finding equilibrium or a ‘sweet spot’ between natural ingredients and (safe & vetted) synthetic ingredients. if a safe synthetic ingredient is necessary in a specific instance, we make sure it’s thoroughly safety vetted and approved. 

we choose ingredients that either directly benefit the health of the skin or support the integrity of our formulations. we don't care if it is synthetic or natural, we instead consider ingredients based on biocompatibility (not stressing your skin out, causing an adverse reaction, interfering with the physiology of the skin or causing congestion.

our goals is to make formulas that:

1. feel really comfortable to live in

2. makes the skin look better minus the steps and stress

3. wont stress you or your skin out. 

we are also vegan, cruelty free and commit to no fragrance, essential oils or dyes.

reducing waste is the biggest challenge the beauty industry faces.

we don't have our head in the sand- we know our recycling system is broken & many items deemed ‘recyclable’ sadly don't actually get recycled.  

while we make an effort to ensure our product packaging is recyclable, some of them may not get sorted into the recycling system due to their small sizes. 

as a small business, we currently don't have the facilities to receive, store & sort your beauty empties & while this is a goal of ours - to take recycling into our own hands (literally), you're going to have to do the heavy lifting for now - ok? 

wash and clean all your beauty empties. take note of what material the packaging is made from on the individual product pages and follow relevant recycling method.

we get that beauty can be a pain to recycle though- so we are supporting any of our guests who would like to take recycling seriously and work with terracycle.

if you have alot of empties - here is how to not let your beauty be a burden on you or the planet by ensuring that materials are sorted and recycled properly. 

1. once you have finished your beauty products, clean them out. 
2. order your very own  terracycle ‘beauty products & packaging zero waste box’ - you can order it at https://zerowasteboxes.terracycle.com.au/products/beauty-products-and-packaging-zero-waste-box 
3. pop your accepted beauty empties into the box- the box should last you ages (20kg weight limit)
4. once its full, send it back to terracycle with the prepaid return label that came with the box 
5. re order your next box. 
6. as a thank you from us for doing your bit for the planet- email us at hello@hotelofbeauty.com a  screenshot of your terracycle order confirmation & we will take 10% off your next order. 

we dont believe beauty should or can be labelled ‘clean’ or ‘dirty’.

“clean” or “natural” doesn’t mean a product is chemical-free (all natural ingredients are, of course, chemicals), safer, or more sustainable, and “synthetic” doesn’t mean it is bad. these demonising labels of good and evil with no regulatory body there to regulate the use of the term means they're getting thrown around like no tomorrow leaving consumers with no ability to decipher what products are actually safe,  will work for them, their health and beauty goals.

we will always move with science, industry leaders and the strictest global regulations the EU- pushing to always take the most responsible route in formulation. we will always be transparent with you - our guests, who deserve to understand what they are putting on their face everyday.
