Where are some organic skin care products in Singapore?

Post by simplynat » Sat, 20 Sep 2008 12:00 am

I just got here in Singapore a couple weeks ago and am looking for some organic stores but found none.
Could someone tell me where I can get Logona, California Baby and Burt's bees? Can't live without them :)
Also someone please tell me if Logona has make-up products such as lipglosses and mascaras. I am just too desperate!!

Have you tried Origins? They have skin care/make-up counters at most department stores here.

i get my supplies from drugstore.com and gardenofwisdom.com

I found some organic stores last weekend and got shocked after checking out those prices.
I mean c'mon! A burt's bees lipbalm for 17.90 dollars? I bought my balm only for 1.99 USD. I had to only buy two products (Shampoo from Califor. baby and one ointment from Burt's and that came out the grand total of almost 50 dollars!)
Thank you for the comments. I'm going to use the online stores you've given me. :)

You can get the Logona and other brands of organic products from Bud Cosmetics (www.budcosmetics.com). Good luck!

Hi! You may wish to try out the shop Four Seasons Organic Market at Basement Two, Great World City. They have an outlet within Carrefour Suntec City as well, but I think their range of organic skincare products is wider at their Great World City outlet. Their tel number is 68361855

Cheers

Please don't patronise this shop which is know to be unethical in it's business and offer bad service. See one of the brands they are ruinning:

http://www.iluvorganic.com/warning-alert.asp

Please be informed that Wing Long Trading aka Dragon D’or Cosmetics are NOT authorized to sell nor distribute Nature’s Gate products in Singapore. They have lost all distribution rights for Singapore market since 2006, when Purveyance Asia Pacific Pte Ltd became the exclusive agent and distributor for the Singapore market.

It has come to our attention that several of our authorized retailers have been harassed by persons by the names of Sunny (Chinese man in his 40s) and Anna (Chinese woman in her 60s) from a company known as Wing Long Trading aka Dragon D’or cosmetics(located at 32 New Market Rd #03-1126). It has also come to our attention that they have been trying to sell Nature’s Gate products at Changi General Hospital. They have already been asked to remove their stocks from the shelves since end Sept 2008.

They are currently trying to sell Nature’s Gate stocks in Singapore, which are meant for the Indonesian market. We have obtained the information from the US main office.

We have painstakingly built up the brand of Nature’s Gate in Singapore through costly investments in A&P, listing in reputable stores like Dairy Farm Group(Guardian and Cold Storage), and consumer education in the last few years since 2005. Riding on our successful marketing efforts, Wing Long has resorted to unethical undercutting means to disrupt our business and the business of our authorized retailers. Levlad, the brand owner and manufacturer of Nature’s Gate, together with Purveyance, condemn such acts of unethical business practices. We hope that you, our customer will also support us in upholding good business ethics and principles, by not purchasing Nature’s Gate products from Wing Long Trading aka Dragon D’or Cosmetics.

Please be informed that all Nature’s Gate products distributed by Purveyance are covered by product insurance and warranty. Any Nature’s Gate products not distributed by Purveyance are not within the insurance coverage.

Thank you for your kind attention and cooperation.

Just my 2 cents worth.
With regards to Dragon D'or. I found myself pretty satisfied with their service. I've been patronising for a year, may be more.

I support the usage of organic products and you could almost say i cant live without them now. Some brands i'm using are: Jason Organics, Nature's gate etc..

One fine occasion, i was planning to buy some fabric material for my aunt, so i took a walk around the building. Found this store that carries some products i'm using. I was astounded. The prices were at least 30% lower than the market outside, not to mention they always offer fair discounts if you purchase more. Although they may not be the most fluent in english, and offer you the best service, at the very least, i feel that they are sincere and

I'm quite shocked at the warning you posted. However, in times of crisis like this, where recession hits, I need to say: I value my dollars and cents.

I believe many of you are like me. No doubt, they might be unethical in the way of seemingly "hijacking" but since the authorities are aware of them doing that, I'm quite pleased to say: as long as the goods are genuine and authentic, I don't mind getting my 30% discounts. *Chuckles

But in a way, i also antagonize against monopoly(s). With monopoly, comes legal extortion.

But i'll be watching this case closely.
Just expressing a different view - mine
Call me a cynic, but i do value my dollars and cents.

Have a nice day
I value my dollars and cents

You might want to look elsewhere, the sales assistant in the shop was obscenely RUDE. :mad:
Such a place should just close down.

For the other who are looking for organic stuff, you're better off ordering them off the internet rather than buying from these local rip offs.

Most of the brands mentioned here can be found at Bud at Novena Square 2 (Velocity). The owner Eric is very well informed and patient.
