Outback Body Products

Hi everyone. As part of my Diploma in Organic Skincare Formulation, I need to learn why people choose and use different skincare products. I’d really appreciate your help with five quick questions about the products you already use.

1. What skincare or body-care products do you use regularly, and why do you use them?
2. What skin problems or needs are you hoping those products will help with?
3. What do you enjoy most about using your favourite products?
4. What frustrates or disappoints you about skincare products?
5. What matters most when you choose a product—price, ingredients, performance, scent, packaging, locally made, or something else?

There are no right or wrong answers. Your honest feedback will help me complete my course activity. Thank you!

A week ago I started my Diploma in Organic Skincare with Formula Botanica. It was a huge step for me because schoolwork, studying, and computers in general have never really been my favourite things. I also have a habit of getting distracted 😜 and before I know it, I’ve completely lost track of time!

Knowing that about myself, I was determined to stay focused and keep myself on track. I set a very ambitious goal of graduating in just six weeks so I wouldn’t lose momentum or motivation.

So far, it’s working! 🎉 Today I started Module 3, and I was thrilled to receive a distinction on my exam.

I’m excited to keep learning and can’t wait to bring everything I learn back into Outback Body Products.

✨ Northern Sky
🌌 Soap Challenge Club – Galaxy Challenge

This challenge was a bit of a journey!

The inspiration for my color palette came from the Northern Lights back home in Alaska. I wanted to capture those vibrant blues, greens and purples against the black of space, with each planet having its own unique look.

It took me three attempts to get there.

On my first soap, I added confetti to the black layers to try and create the appearance of stars. It seemed like a great idea at the time, but when I cut the soap I wasn't happy with it. The nebula ended up too dark and just didn't stand out the way I'd pictured it in my head.

For the second soap, I was much happier with the galaxy, but something still wasn't quite right. The bottom black layer wasn't large enough, which pushed the planets down towards the bottom of the bars instead of having them flow through the middle.

By the third attempt, I finally felt like everything came together. A few adjustments to the layer proportions made all the difference, and the design was much closer to what I'd imagined from the beginning.

Sometimes it's tempting to settle for "good enough," but I knew I'd always wonder "what if?" if I didn't give it one more try. I'm really glad I trusted my instincts and kept refining the design.

A big thank you to Amanda, Robyn and Lane Bass for another challenge that really got me thinking. I can't wait to see everyone's galaxy creations! 💜✨

Life gets busy. Between work, family and everything that needs doing, it is easy to keep putting yourself last. But when you are constantly running on empty, stress and exhaustion can build until you have very little left to give.

Outback Body Products understands that an entire day of self-care is not always realistic. The Take a Moment Collection was created to help you use the small pockets of time you already have to pause, breathe and recharge.

Choose the moment you have, choose the product that fits and give yourself permission to stop for a little while. Whether it is a shower steamer before work, a sugar body polish at the end of the day, a relaxing bath or an at-home pedicure, even a small moment can make a difference.

Feel calmer, refreshed and more like yourself again.

Life gets busy. Take a moment.
