BESTOW CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
“I have been using Bestow Beauty Powder for over two years now. I find it a fabulous way to get essential nutrients for optimum skin health, both for myself and my clients. It’s easy, tasty and very effective. Within six weeks of taking Bestow Beauty Powder, in conjunction with Bestow Beauty Oil, clients see a noticeable improvement in their general well being and their skin,”- Jemma Moran
Bestow Beauty Oil Plus tastes beautiful, looks beautiful and keeps my skin beautiful! I have a tendency to struggle with eczema, but it has markedly improved by taking Bestow Beauty Oil over the years. Recently I forgot to take my oil due to a change in my eating habits and to my horror, my eczema started to return. I started taking a tablespoon of Bestow Beauty Plus Oil and it is back under control again. The more fruity flavour, due to the blackcurrant oil, tastes great in my soaked muesli every morning. As a beauty therapist, I recommend Bestow Beauty Plus Oil when my clients are stressed, under the weather or have a poor digestive system which stops them from producing the full family of fats required for health.” -

BESTOW THE GRACES COLLECTION
A small collection of plant-based, topical skincare TH E G R A C ES
The Graces are a small collection of topical skincare products, which sit under the Bestow Beauty brand. In Greek mythology, the Graces were a trio of goddesses who personified beauty, charm and grace. They embodied these feminine virtues and bestowed them upon women. This mythical trio are like the original beauty therapists. They are symbolic archetypes who bestow beauty and grace and who work together to help women blossom. The Graces skincare products are designed to bestow grace upon specific skin concerns and challenges. They will not replace your normal skincare range but can complement it.
They contain no nasties, are not tested on animals and are made in New Zealand.
WE ONLY LET THE GOOD LIGHT IN.
Bestow The Graces range is packaged in specially crafted MIRON Violet Glass bottles, which prolongs the potency of the oil blend. Plants need sunshine to grow and to activate their vital properties, but once those plant actives are extracted, light becomes damaging. MIRON Violet Glass blocks the complete spectrum of visible light with the exception of the violet part, which energises rather than decays the oils. In essence, these beautiful deep violet bottles care for your skin by letting the good light in and keeping the harmful light out.

BESTOW RITUALS
Healthy habits for a beautiful life
We have discovered that self-care and soul-care are directly related to skincare. If your life is hurried and stressed and characterised by negative mental patterns, you are unlikely to make the empowering choices that lead to health and wellness. On the other hand, we notice that the women who take time to build healthy habits into their life enjoy greater health and more beautiful skin over the decades. This is why we embrace the power of rituals at Bestow. Rituals are beautiful habits that support your health and wellness over your lifetime.
BESTOW SELF-CARE RITUALS
Women often take wonderful care of everyone except themselves. This is why we encourage clients to embrace these six self-care rituals. They create moments of pause when you can tend to your own wellbeing.
TIME FOR TEA | TIME FOR ME RITUAL
01
02
Take time for you. Put the kettle on and select a beautiful tea-cup to enjoy your tea in. Steep your chosen Bestow Organic Tea in boiling water. While you wait for your tea to steep, take 5 slow, deep breaths. Put your hands on your belly and feel your belly rise and fall as you breathe all the way down. Sit quietly and sip your tea slowly, savouring this moment of blissful pause. Go onwards with grace and gratitude.
03
BESTOW RISE AND SHINE RITUAL
This daily ritual is to awaken and enliven our bodies upon rising. Encouraging you to wake with the natural morning light and face towards the sun, this ritual inhibits the production of melatonin (your sleep hormone) and stimulates the production of serotonin and cortisol, which signal to your entire being that it’s time to be alert and active.
04
DRY BRUSHING RITUAL WITH BESTOW BODY BRUSH
Dry brushing your skin each day is a wonderful way to encourage detoxification and to promote soft, smooth skin. The B estow Body Brush has a wooden handle and the bristles are made from natural fibres. Take time for you; Before showering or bathing, brush your skin for five to ten minutes using the Bestow Body Brush. Begin at your feet and move upwards until you have brushed your whole body. Brush towards your heart with a light pressure until your skin has a slightly pink, healthy glow.

BESTOW SMOOTHIE RITUAL
Set a reminder in your phone or calendar to make your mid-afternoon Bestow Smoothie Ritual. Get ahead of the blood-sugar drop! Make your Bestow Smoothie (recipes available on our website). Pour it into a nice glass and sprinkle on some toppings. Take a break for five minutes and sit and sip your smoothie slowly, savouring each mouthful.
