At Gondwana Macadamias, our passion has always been about more than just creating beautiful products. It’s about honouring the land that gives us so much, caring for our environment, and crafting skincare that feels good for people and the planet. That’s why we are thrilled to share some exciting news. Two of our amazing botanical skincare products have been recognised with Silver at the 2025 Clean + Conscious Awards.
What the Clean + Conscious Awards mean
The Clean + Conscious Awards shine a light on products that are safe, effective, ethical, and sustainable. They look beyond packaging and marketing claims, diving deep into ingredients, sourcing, and the values behind the brand. For us, being recognised at these awards is incredibly meaningful. It validates what we’ve always believed, that skincare can be luxurious, effective, and responsible all at once.
Winning Silver for two of our core products tells us we’re on the right track. It reminds us, and hopefully you, that when we create products with integrity, the results speak for themselves.
Meet the Silver Award Winners
EASE ~ Macadamia Joint & Muscle Spray Mist
Lightweight, fast-absorbing, and designed for real life, our EASE Joint & Muscle Spray has become a favourite for those looking to soothe tired joints and muscles. Whether you’re recovering after a gym session, unwinding after a long day, or needing quick relief on the go, this spray delivers comfort without fuss.
It’s made with Australian macadamia oil, known for its nourishing and anti-inflammatory properties, blended with squalane and botanicals like rosemary, ginger, and peppermint. Together, they create a formula that feels cooling, restorative, and grounding.
Practical wellness is at the heart of Ease Spray. It fits by your bedside, in your gym bag, or your handbag to provide cooling comfort for tired muscles when you need it.
Macadamia & Mineral Face & Body Scrub
Described by many as “radiance in a jar,” our Macadamia & Mineral Face & Body Scrub is all about bringing a glow back to your skin. Its creamy texture gently exfoliates with sugar crystals while enriching your skin with macadamia and safflower oils. The uplifting citrus notes of lime and rockrose transform a simple skincare step into a refreshing ritual.
The result? Skin that feels smooth, nourished, and luminous.
What the Judges Said
EASE ~ Macadamia Joint & Muscle Spray Mist
“This spray is the perfect all-rounder for muscle aches and pains. It absorbs quickly and doesn’t leave any greasy residue, which is a huge plus. I loved the cooling effect and the subtle natural scent. A thoughtful, well-formulated product that makes recovery simple.”
- Emma Freeman, Clean + Conscious Judge
“I love that this spray can be used on joints as well as muscles, it’s lightweight and non-greasy. It absorbs well and feels refreshing after a workout. A great formulation using Australian macadamia oil.”
- Ash Quinn, Clean + Conscious Judge
Macadamia & Mineral Face & Body Scrub
“This scrub is lush! The texture is thick and creamy without being heavy, and the sugar gives an even exfoliation that feels effective yet gentle. My skin felt super soft after rinsing, like it had already been moisturised. The fresh lime and earthy scent adds a spa-like vibe.”
- Emma Freeman, Clean + Conscious Judge
“The scrub smells amazing! Gentle enough for the face, but just as effective for the body. It leaves skin smooth, nourished, and hydrated, and I love that it’s made in small batches with care.”
- Ash Quinn, Clean + Conscious Judge
“I’m obsessed with how my skin feels after using this — so soft and glowing! The regenerative and community ethos behind the brand makes me love it even more.”
- Emily Fletcher, Clean + Conscious Awards Founder
The Power of Macadamia Oil
At the heart of both our Silver Award winners is one extraordinary ingredient, Australian macadamia oil. Native to our rainforests and treasured for thousands of years, macadamias are part of Australia’s history, and their oil is a true skincare multitasker.
Rich in essential fatty acids, antioxidants, and nutrients, macadamia oil is known for its ability to:
-
Nourish deeply without leaving skin greasy
-
Soothe and calm with natural anti-inflammatory properties
-
Support skin barrier repair, helping protect against dryness
- Absorb quickly, making it ideal for both face and body care
Pairing this powerful oil with other botanicals is what makes our formulations effective, gentle, and now also award-winning.
