Ever since I was a little girl, I have been fascinated with flora and fauna – especially when it comes to New Zealand (Aotearoa) Native animals and plants! My family has always been passionate about the conservation and protection of our special species, and I have always loved learning about them… I felt so inspired by New Zealand’s natural beauty that I wanted to turn that inspo in to another passion of mine… which is makeup!
I put together a colour scheme that was inspired by some of New Zealand’s most gorgeous offerings – these shades are perfect to create a bold look, a natural look or anything in-between… day or night!
To celebrate the launch of my NEW #nativepalette, xoBeauty has donated to TWO charities that are doing AMAZING things to help conserve our beautiful Native to New Zealand species – including wildlife, wetlands and forests! https://www.nfrt.org.nz/about-the-trust/ and https://www.endangeredspecies.org.nz/act-now/donate – please check them out and consider supporting them, or donate or volunteer if you can!
I have included a DOC link of charities, conservation efforts and volunteer groups you can help out with too! https://www.doc.govt.nz/get-involved/volunteer/make-a-donation/ and remember to share your knowledge and raise awareness, so people continue to spread the word! Education is key xox

? Study Ecology at Massey University (say hello to my Aunty Tracy hehehe):
https://www.massey.ac.nz/massey/learning/programme-course/programme.cfm?prog_id=92411&major_code=PECLG
“Ecology is the study of the relationships between living organisms, including humans, and their physical environment; it seeks to understand the vital connections between plants and animals and the world around them.” Even though I didn’t study here, as a child I literally spent countless days in this building and on little field trips with the team there, learning so much about animals and more! SUCH a cool course if you are interested. My Aunty is so passionate about it and I wanted to share it with you, too!
