1. Simply marvellous
Star product Simply. Body Butter ($20 for 170 g).
Claim to fame This moisturizer hydrates to the max, with organic shea butter, safflower oil and vitamin E, and it leaves you smelling sweet-like chocolate -- thanks to fair-trade cocoa butter.

2. Rosy glow
Star product Farmaesthetics Pure Complexion Tonic With Chamomile & Rosewater ($29).
Claim to fame This toner soothes, softens and cleanses your skin with 100-percent natural botanicals like witch hazel, lavender and chamomile. And the royal-blue apothecary-style bottle is a nice retro touch.

3. Amazonian beauty
Star product Inara Organic Body Care Babassu Body Crème ($47).
Claim to fame The key organic ingredient in this rich lotion is ultra-moisturizing Babassu oil, harvested from the Amazon. Quickly absorbed into the skin, it will leave you with that fresh-from-the-spa glow.

4. Clean slate
Star product Miessence Lemon Myrtle Shampoo ($22).
Claim to fame Send your locks into detox with this shampoo. The organic lemon, bitter orange and grapefruit extracts wash away heavy product buildup.

5. Juicy details
Star product Juice Beauty Sensitive Green Apple Peel from the Organics to Go kit ($60 for the kit).
Claim to fame A fave of Kate Hudson and Scarlett Johansson, this organic line cares for the skin with fruit and botanical juices. In this case, an apple a day does keep the (skin) doctor away!
