Review: Wild Leaf Botanicals


I was blessed to recently receive a package from Wild Leaf Botanicals including their Hair and Body  Oil and samples of their Body Scrub and All Over Balm. Wild Leaf Botanicals is an Australian made and owned natural skincare line that showcases Australia's native botanicals and essential oils. All products hand crafted by Wild Leaf Botanicals are cruelty-free, natural and earth conscious. Keep reading below for my thoughts on Wild Leaf Botanicals.


Sweet Orange & Macadamia Hair and Body Oil
A nourishing blend of Australian-grown cold-pressed botanical oils with a delicious nutty orange scent to leave you with soft skin and silky hair.

Ingredients:
  • Macadamia nut oil – native Australian; from a small farm with sustainable farming practices in regional south-east Queensland
  • Jojoba oil – Australian; from a small farm in outback Queensland
  • Sunflower oil (organic) – Australian grown and produced
  • Avocado oil – Australian; from a small, family-run farm in the Sunshine Coast hinterland
  • Sweet orange essential oil – Australian grown; by-product from the food industry which reduces waste
  • Vitamin E – natural; antioxidant to prevent oil rancidity
I love the scent of this citrusy blend, and how multipurpose it is. I have used this oil to smooth hair flyaways and soften dry and split hair ends, as a cuticle oil, a moisturiser for dry areas of skin, and as an all over skin hydrator. It can also be used as a hot oil hair treatment, or even to shave legs with; the possibilities are endless! In winter, I love to add a few drops of my current favourite oil blend (this one!) into my body moisturiser for an extra hydrating treat. I love the simple but effective ingredient list; more ingredients do not necessarily make a product more effective, and can actually increase the likelihood of irritation! I recommend this oil to anyone looking for a versatile all over body oil that is reasonably priced, and Australian made.

Citrus & Peppermint Body Scrub
Pink Lake Salt/ Oatmeal/ Olive Oil/ Lemon scented ironbark essential oil/ Sweet orange, mandarin and lavender essential oils
I love the blend of uplifting citrus essential oils in this body scrub blend. This body scrub effectively exfoliates with pink salt and oatmeal, and removes any dead skin on my body. I would reserve this scrub purely for the body as the granules will be too harsh on the face. I love the feeling I get after a good scrub like this as it leaves my skin feeling so soft and hydrated and looking flush and glowing.


Lavender & Calendula All Over Balm
Apricot Kernel Oil/ Sunflower Oil/ Jojoba Oil/ Beeswax/ Lavender essential oil
This is another great multi-purpose product from Wild Leaf Botanicals! I have applied this to dry heels, hands, elbows, and cuticles. It can also be used on the face, but I didn't as I tend to break out from any waxes. This balm is super hydrating and has a lovely calming scent owing to the beautiful Lavender essential oil grown and distilled in Tasmania (my state!).

I loved trying out new-to-me brand, Wild Leaf Botanicals! If you are interested in trying out Wild Leaf Botanicals offerings, visit their website (they also do a face mask and scrub!)
