Manomara

Gerard Durrell’s conservation centre in Jersey Channel Islands, Jersey Zoo, now stocks a full range of Manomara ethical outdoor skincare products.

Buyers at Durrell’s Trinity gift shop are dedicated to offering palm-free products because deforestation for palm oil market devastates Orangutans’ habitat. Now, Jersey Zoo stocks Manomara’s low impact formulas made from luxury botanical ingredients.

A vegan version of the original best seller Soul Butter is also available at Durrell.

Both teams look forward to collaborative work, launching a refillable jar campaign on the Island as well as continuing to cut out one-use plastic packaging.

Hollywood star Henry Cavill is an ambassador for Durrell and will be in the Island on Sunday 13th May 2018 for the Durrell Dash, a 13 k run raising money for the conservation trust. Manomara will also be there.

Manomara’s collaboration with Longueville Manor Cottage Garden Spa continues to grow; the boutique hotel now stocks hand made candles, organic facial oil, body wash and salt scrub as well as the unique collaborative massage oil inspired by the botanicals in the Manor’s walled garden.

We all commit to reusing glass bottles which are collected from the spa and refilled at Manomara’s micro laboratory.

‘In an industry fuelled by technological advances (in products, machines and techniques), it is notable that (one can) simply, and rather magically, used nothing but hands and a selection of serums and oils’ to make yourself look like a lifted and better version of yourself.

‘Who knew that low-fi could be so spectacularly effective?’
