Back in 2008, I started reacting to synthetic chemicals in household and body products.  With small children in the home I started wondering what these ingredients were doing to our health and to the environment.

Some years later, reading the novel Perfume by Patrick Suskind while on holidays in Far North Queensland, and surrounded by unusual native flora, I wondered whether here in Australia we could create beautiful fragrances and products from native botanicals, just like the French have been doing for centuries.  I started researching the fragrance and properties of Australian native flora and was inspired by the potential of these little-known botanicals.

Starting on the kitchen bench in 2012 I developed a Bench Spray, Hand Wash and Floor Wash – while simultaneously developing a range of all-natural scents, each based around a beautiful Australian native.

BONDI WASH launched in November 2013 with 3 products and 3 scents.  The range was developed drawing on expertise from chemists and using the latest technology in natural ingredients.  We now have over 40 different products and 11 natural scents.

The range combines the power and fragrance of unique Australian botanicals with a luxurious mix of other essential oils and natural ingredients that are at least 99% derived from nature, often 100%.  The range harnesses the naturally anti-bacterial properties of Australian botanicals to effectively kill germs on the body, in the air and on surfaces.  Many of the products are independently lab tested to confirm they 'kill 99.99% of germs'.

My hope is that the range will provide a little daily pleasure as you wash and breathe in the natural scents of Australia - and do no harm to your health, to your family or to our precious planet.
