Beauty destination: Linden Leaves’ new flagship store

Last week I was invited to Parnell, Auckland to have a peek at New Zealand natural skincare brand Linden Leaves’ first ever store, and what a small-but-perfectly-formed little stunner it is!

Housed in one of the area’s histories buildings, it is the ideal place to showcase the very visual brand’s collection in its entirety and at 317 Parnell Road it’s a great addition to the iconic strip. After a glass of bubbles and a good look around we headed to Italian restaurant NSP for a humdinger of a lunch, and a catch up about how and where the Linden Leaves brand is going.

We also left with a bottle of their legendary body oil and a sample of one of their newer releases, Linden Leaves Porcelain Brightening Serum with Organic White Tea (pictured). A natural correcting serum, it is formulated with natural skin correcting ingredients to brighten, balance and to help fade the appearance of dark spots and age pigmentation for a smoother, fresher complexion. Key ingredients apart from the aforementioned white tea include Mulberry and Liquorice extracts – to lighten and brighten the skin – and sweet almond oil  to help combat the signs of ageing.

Suitable for all skin types in need, you can mix it into or layer it under your essential facial moisturiser, or even apply it carefully over make up as an instant refresher during the day. Very handy!
