About us

Third Stone Botanicals has been created by qualified naturopath, nutritionist, epidemiologist and lecturer, Tess Dingle.

Tess supports the philosophy that as holistic beings our skin must be cared for with our body, mind, spirit, and environment in consideration. Therefore, Third Stone Botanicals products are formulated to support the healthy functioning of our skin, from within and without, with mindful and minimal impact on our environment.

Only whole, plant-based, and organic skin foods are used in our formulas, including medicinal herbs, cold-pressed oils and Australian mineral clays. As these ingredients are used in their purest, organic and unrefined state, they provide essential nutrients like anti-oxidants, amino acids, vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids, all of which support and nourish the skin. With the addition of certified organic pure essential oils and Australian Bush Flower Essences®, these nutrients are more effectively absorbed and utilized by our own holistic constitution.

Third Stone Botanicals contains no toxic, synthetic, petrochemical, genetically modified or animal ingredients and our products are tested on happy human volunteers. Some products contain certified organic Australian beeswax or manuka honey for its renowned healing properties. We plant bee-attracting flowers around the studio to encourage our wonderful native bees and give back to nature. All other products are suitable for vegans.

Over 90% of our product range contains close to 100% certified organic ingredients which are listed on our website and product labels for your informed choice. Third Stone Botanicals is manufactured in small batches under strict quality control in our solar-powered studio. All packaging is recyclable, compostable, or reusable – good for us and good for the planet. We are striving towards plastic-free packaging including glass, aluminium, and kraft paper pouches as it becomes available and safe for the life of the product.

We welcome your feedback and love hearing your ideas for new or improved products. Together we can strive for a less toxic and wasteful life lived in harmony with our planet and enhanced by divine natural fragrance!
