Yes — all Skyezone skincare products are gluten‑free.

The only item we make that contains gluten is our multigrain bread loaf, which is made with Laucke flour.

All skincare, balms, serums, oils, and body products are formulated without gluten‑containing ingredients.

The term “Therapeutic Grade” isn’t an official or regulated standard in the essential oil industry. However, all our oils are 100% pure, unadulterated, and suitable for aromatherapy and topical use when properly diluted.

We list clear dilution recommendations on every label, and we always encourage safe use. Essential oils should not be applied directly to the skin or taken internally unless the product specifically states that it is safe to do so.

Our News Post on Essential Oils gives a dilution chart and breakdown of several oil and their uses.

The short answer: No — and that’s a good thing.

Everything in nature, including plants and our own bodies, is made of chemicals. Botanical extracts are rich in naturally occurring bio‑chemicals, some of them quite potent, and these are exactly what make them effective.

What we do avoid are harsh synthetic additives, fillers, and unnecessary artificial ingredients. Our focus is on plant‑derived, evidence‑based ingredients that are safe, functional, and aligned with natural skincare chemistry.

Some ingredients we use — such as Sclerotium Gum, MSM, and Sodium Hyaluronate — are originally plant‑based but must be refined or processed in a laboratory to ensure purity, stability, and safety. These are ingredients that cannot be extracted in a home or studio environment, yet they remain gentle, well‑studied, and widely used in natural formulations.

We grow and process many of our botanicals right here on site, but we also work with trusted Australian suppliers for the raw materials we can’t produce ourselves. Because we use such a wide variety of botanicals, no single country has the climate or industry to grow everything we need.

Even when we purchase through Australian suppliers, the plant materials themselves may originate from different regions around the world. This ensures we can access the highest‑quality botanicals from the environments where they naturally thrive.

Whenever possible, we prioritise Australian‑grown ingredients first — supporting local growers and maintaining the freshest, most traceable supply chain.

Physical exfoliation
This is exfoliation you can feel. Our Skyezone Facial Scrub uses fine, natural particles to gently buff away dead skin cells on the surface. It gives an immediate smooth, polished feel and helps brighten the complexion right away.
Best for: normal, dry, or combination skin; people who enjoy a tactile, instant-result exfoliation.

Chemical exfoliation
AHAs (like lactic or glycolic acid) and BHAs (like salicylic acid) work by dissolving the bonds that hold dead skin cells together. Instead of scrubbing, they melt away the buildup. AHAs target surface dullness and hydration, while BHAs can travel deeper into pores to help with congestion.
Best for: dullness, uneven texture, congestion, or when you want a deeper, more even exfoliation without physical particles.

Some people alternate them. Physical exfoliation gives that instant polish, while chemical exfoliants support deeper renewal. The key is not to overdo it; gentle, consistent exfoliation always wins.

Active vitamins are some of the most effective, research‑supported ingredients in modern skincare. They don’t just sit on the surface — they interact with the skin in meaningful ways to support repair, brightness, hydration, and overall resilience.

Vitamin C
is a powerhouse antioxidant that helps the skin look brighter, firmer, and more even.
Key benefits:

• Supports natural collagen production
• Helps reduce the look of dark spots and uneven tone
• Protects against environmental stressors
• Gives skin a fresh, luminous glow

Vitamin B
(B3 - Niacinamide & B5 Panthenol) strengthen and soothe the skin barrier — essential for healthy, balanced skin.
Key benefits:

• Improves hydration and reduces moisture loss
• Helps calm redness and irritation
• Supports a stronger, more resilient skin barrier
• Helps refine the look of pores and uneven texture

Unlike basic moisturisers, active vitamins work at a deeper functional level. They help the skin:

• Renew itself more efficiently
• Defend against daily stress
• Maintain elasticity and smoothness
• Stay hydrated and balanced

Botanical extracts provide antioxidants, minerals, and phyto‑compounds, while active vitamins deliver targeted, measurable benefits. Together, they create a well‑rounded, high‑performance routine — which is exactly how Skyezone formulates.

Yes — even natural ingredients can trigger sensitivities or allergies. Plant extracts and essential oils contain potent bio‑active compounds, and everyone’s skin responds differently.

That’s why we always recommend a 24‑hour patch test on the inner forearm before using a new product. If your skin is highly reactive, it may respond within minutes, so it’s best to start with a tiny amount and increase gradually.

Listening to your skin is key. Natural doesn’t automatically mean non‑reactive — but with mindful testing and gentle introduction, most people enjoy the full benefits comfortably.

We make our products as natural as possible. Many of our ingredients come directly from the botanicals we grow and process on site, and we choose natural, plant‑derived materials wherever they perform well and safely.

Some ingredients — like natural gums, vitamins, or hyaluronic acid — need to be refined or processed in a laboratory to ensure purity, stability, and effectiveness. These are still gentle, well‑studied, and widely used in natural skincare, but they aren’t something that can be extracted in a home studio.

Our focus is always on safe, evidence‑based, plant‑aligned formulations with no unnecessary synthetic fillers.

Yes — and the results truly speak for themselves. Botanical ingredients are rich in active compounds that have evolved over millions of years to protect, repair, and strengthen living tissue. Many of today’s most effective skincare actives (like Vitamin C, niacinamide, salicylic acid, and hyaluronic acid) originally come from plants.

Our long‑term customers — some who’ve been with us for 10 to 15 years — consistently report smoother, brighter, healthier skin. Their reviews reflect exactly what we see in person.

And if you’ve met me, you’ve seen the long‑term results of a life spent outdoors as a Phys Ed and Outdoor Ed teacher, followed by many years working hands‑on with botanicals. Natural ingredients absolutely can — and do — support a healthy, resilient complexion from youth through to older age.

To achieve a safe 3‑year shelf life, we use a combination of natural, broad‑spectrum preservatives. These help protect your products from contamination by bacteria, yeast, and mould — an essential part of keeping skincare safe and stable.

Our preservative system includes:

• Grapeseed Extract – a natural antioxidant that supports product stability
• Plantaserv E – a gentle, plant‑derived preservative blend offering broad‑spectrum protection
• Naticide – a naturally derived, vanilla‑like aromatic compound with antimicrobial properties

These ingredients allow us to maintain product freshness and safety without relying on harsh synthetic preservatives.

The truth is: you don’t need to avoid all chemicals — everything, including water and plants, is made of chemicals. What matters is avoiding harsh, unnecessary, or irritating synthetic additives that don’t support skin health.

Many people choose more natural, plant‑aligned skincare because:

• Some synthetic additives can irritate sensitive skin
  (especially artificial fragrances, harsh preservatives, or cheap fillers)
• Botanical ingredients contain naturally balanced compounds
  that work with the skin rather than overwhelming it
• Gentler formulations support the skin barrier
  instead of stripping it or causing long‑term dryness
• Natural actives are often just as effective
  — Vitamin C, niacinamide, salicylic acid, and hyaluronic acid all originate from plants

At Skyezone, the focus isn’t on avoiding “chemicals” — it’s on avoiding unnecessary synthetics and choosing ingredients that are safe, effective, and as natural as possible.

Our Sun Guard has been independently tested by Antaria Labs in Queensland, Australia, achieving an SPF rating of 30.6 under controlled laboratory conditions. This places it firmly within the SPF 30 protection category.

Generally, no.
Skyezone avoids palm oil across our range, with just two exceptions — and even then, it’s indirect.

The two exceptions:

• Karma Oil
• Ginkgo‑Infused MCT Oil

Both of these use MCT Oil (Medium Chain Triglycerides), which is derived from coconut oil, not palm. MCT is a clean, stable, lightweight oil that absorbs quickly and feels beautifully non‑greasy on the skin.

Why we use MCT Oil

• It’s palm‑free
• It’s lightweight and fast‑absorbing
• It supports a smooth, silky texture in oil blends
• When taken orally, MCT is known for providing quick cellular energy rather than being stored as fat
• When infused with botanicals like ginkgo leaf, it becomes even more beneficial and antioxidant‑rich

So while these two products do contain MCT oil, they do not contain palm oil.

They work together, but they’re completely different in purpose, strength, and how they’re used.

Essential Oils

• Highly concentrated plant extracts
• Potent aroma + therapeutic properties
• Too strong to use directly on the skin
• Used in tiny amounts (drops)
• Provide the scent and active aromatic profile in blends

Think of them as the “active ingredients” in aromatherapy.

Carrier Oils

• Cold‑pressed or refined oils from nuts, seeds, or fruit
• Mild, nourishing, and safe to apply directly
• Used to dilute essential oils for safe skin application
• Provide slip, hydration, and skin‑loving fatty acids
• Examples: jojoba, hazelnut, rosehip

These are the “base oils” that carry essential oils onto the skin.

How they work together

Essential oils bring the aroma and potency.
Carrier oils bring the nourishment and safety.
Together, they create balanced, skin‑friendly blends.

Every ingredient we use has a recommended usage range based on safety data, dermal limits, and performance research. At Skyezone, we work within those evidence‑based guidelines — then refine each formula to suit skin type, product purpose, and customer needs.

How we determine percentages

• We research each ingredient’s dermal limit and recommended % use
• We formulate within safe, effective ranges
• We adjust ratios to achieve the right texture, absorption, and skin feel
• We tailor actives to ensure the product is gentle, balanced, and effective

This is the heart of what we do at Skyezone: thoughtful formulation, guided by science and refined through experience.

Why we don’t list exact percentages

Percentages are part of our proprietary formulations — but the important thing to know is that every active is used at a level that is:

• Safe
• Evidence‑based
• Effective for the intended skin outcome
