The Sydney Morning Herald — Australian Potions for Far-off Climes

Next time you thump down on a runway somewhere, ready for the adventure ahead, make sure your face is as ready as the rest of you is.

Just near Byron Bay (of course), Synthesis, a small company run by Theme Rains, is blending up some of the exquisite organic face products around.

Synthesis Discovery Sample & Travel Collection features seven tiny bottles of magic potions, deisgned to support faces in canging climes and time zones.

Rains suggested a pre-flight routine of applying the Enzyme Cleanser, then Hydrate Tonic, followed by a thick layer of the Brighten Vit C Serum to wear as a hydrating mask. Next, add a rich layer of Replenish Eye Cream. For me, it's the blast of the luxurious Australian scents come shower time on day four or five that really brinsd you home.
