Why we love Linden Leaves<br />

We love family businesses, and we love businesses<br />

who give back to the community and the<br />

environment, so when you combine these two<br />

together in a New Zealand cosmetics company that<br />

is focused on providing luxury products you can<br />

understand why our ears pricked up! Using<br />

sustainable ingredients and employing the family to<br />

help grow the business, its exciting to learn more<br />

about what drove a family to take the durastic step<br />

of starting a skin care brand.<br />

Linden Leaves was founded by Brigit Blair in 1995<br />

in Christchurch, New Zealand to help care for two<br />

of her children who suffered severe eczema and<br />

allergies. At the time, natural and effective products<br />

that were kind to sensitive skin were hard to find,<br />

and so out of necessity, Linden Leaves was born.<br />

Brigit began harvesting and freeze-drying roses,<br />

and blending fruit and flower oils with the unique<br />

scent of essential oil blends. It became a real<br />

labour of love for Brigit, who set out to create<br />

beautiful, effective and quality handmade natural<br />

products that were kind to the skin.<br />

From a humble family kitchen operation, Linden<br />

Leaves has expanded into an internationally<br />

recognised brand known for its natural everyday<br />

luxury handmade products.Devoted to effective,<br />

natural products created from the best quality<br />

ingredients, Brigit’s vision for Linden Leaves has<br />

always been focused on beautiful, effective and<br />

gentle products to nourish the skin and soothe the<br />

soul.<br />
