Natio’s NEW Glow skincare range supports skin at a cellular level to glow its brightest best. Guided by the belief that the best ingredients are found in nature, Natio Glow heroes this powerful edit of potent plant antioxidants and combines it with synergistic plant oils and extracts that further support skin’s health and radiance.
With glowy, radiant skin in mind we created a signature Natio cellular extract blend rich with known skin brightening ingredients.
You might be thinking what is a cellular extract?
Essentially a cellular extraction is skincare science – it allows us to extract a natural ingredient’s full profile, of both the oil and water soluble phyto compounds, resulting in active natural materials that directly affect the function of skin. The extraction is the closest to nature compounds that are “true to nature”.
Cellular Extracts of Kakadu Plum, Goji Berry and Pomegranate combine forces to bring your best glowing skin to life. Kakadu plums are potent with natural Vitamin C and are known to help reduce the visible signs of ageing, by promoting collagen production to keep the skin looking plump. Pomegranate’s seeds are also powerful antioxidants, that fight the skin’s ageing process and help to detox the skin. The last hero ingredient that makes up our Cellular Extract Trio is Goji Berries, known for their anti-inflammatory properties to help soothe irritated skin and encourage a more even complexion.
Lets get to know the glow…
Start your routine with the Beauty Boost Cleansing Balm –the balm format, effectively and easily melts away all waterproof makeup and SPF, leaving skin looking healthy and radiant.
Follow with the Brighter Skin Refining Toner works to brighten and refine skin delivered in a mess free, convenient mist. Containing PHAs and Lactic Acid to help gently exfoliate skin, while hydrating and evening skin tone.
Next up is the Multi-Action Exfoliating Concentrate – another new format to the Natio range, the leave on, liquid exfoliant helps reveal plump, radiant looking skin. The multi action formula contains PHAs and Lactic Acid to help gently exfoliate skin, while hydrating and evening skin tone, its perfect for those with sensitive skin.
Perfect to lock in all those beautiful skin loving ingredients is the 24/7 Hydrating Water Cream - a lightweight, luxe water gel moisturiser, that provides long lasting moisture to skin, whilst sitting perfectly under makeup, leaving skin with a balanced moisture barrier and lasting radiance. Ideal for morning and night.
We should all know that sun protection is the most important step to help prevent premature ageing and the Prep & Prime Clear Gel SPF 50 is a double hero product! The perfect step after your skincare routine to prep the skin for cosmetics to follow. As you test this formula you will notice it is an innovative texture, a completely clear gel waterless SPF, that works to prime skin, allowing for a seamless foundation application whilst leaving zero white cast.
The 7-piece glow range is completed with 2 treatment products – the Purely Radiant Botanical Face Oil ideal for daily use for all skin types, but a must for people with dry or dehydrated skin. This hydrating and nourishing botanical face oil leaves skin looking refreshed and revived from environmental stressors. Infused with Sweet Almond Oil, Jojoba Oil, Rosehip, Squalane, Vitamin E, it can be used morning or night.
The last product in the range is the 10 Minute Miracle Mask - an intensely hydrating, wipe off face mask, that leaves skin feeling rejuvenated and balanced. Simply apply a thick layer to face, leave on for 10 minutes, and wipe off excess. The mask helps to replenish vital skin hydration and promote a healthy moisture barrier.

At Natio, we believe in the power of embracing your authentic self and individuality. This International Women's Day we are proud to celebrate our partnership with the Melbourne Mavericks, a team that embodies resilience, passion, and the spirit of women supporting women.
The Mavericks bring a bold, refreshing energy that resonates with our ethos to cherish your uniqueness and strive to be your best self. Behind every great team are great leaders and the Mavericks are led by two powerhouse coaches - Travey Neville and Nicole Richardson.
Netball has long been a sport where women excel, holding the title of Australia’s most popular team sport. As the leading women’s sporting league in the world*, the Suncorp Super Netball League has a unique ability to motivate and inspire Australian women.
Both Mavericks coaches have years of elite netball experience and are proving to young girls that they can be trailblazers in their chosen sport. If you’re a netball fan, you know Tracey Neville. A former England Roses player turned legendary coach, she won bronze with her team in the 1998 Commonwealth Games and the 1999 World Netball Championships. As a coach, she made history in 2018 when she led England to a gold medal win at the commonwealth games. Now, she’s bringing that same winning mindset to the Melbourne Mavericks, building a fierce and unique team from the ground up.
Nicole Richardson is a legend in netball. She played for Australia in both netball and softball and her team won the 1995 Netball World cup. After transitioning into coaching, she brought her elite sporting experience and tactical brilliance to the sidelines. Today, she’s instilling the same dedication and strategic thinking that earned her legendary status in her sporting career.
Tracey and Nicole are more than just coaches - they’re trailblazers. They show us what is possible when women are given the space to lead and inspire. We deeply admire everything they have achieved and the way they continue to create opportunities for women to thrive, both locally and globally.

There’s something undeniably magical about the golden hour, the brief moments just after sunrise and before sunset when the world is bathed in radiant light. It’s nature’s most flattering filter and was the muse behind Natio’s latest collection: Golden Hour.
To give you an exclusive behind-the-scenes look, I sat down with the creative minds behind the collection - our Product Development team - to uncover their inspiration, favourite products and a few hidden gems you won’t want to miss!
Kerith, can you tell us what inspired the Golden Hour collection?
This collection was inspired by nature’s most flattering light and is a celebration of the golden flowing light, low on the horizon that bathes the world in warmth preceding sunrise and sunset. The range is all about embracing this beauty and letting your unique features and your inner beauty shine!
Nikki, you were the main developer behind the collection, what are some hidden gems we might not know about it at first look?
The Eyeshadow Book has a removable mirror! You can pull it out and pop it in your handbag and voila! – you have a travel ready mirror. Plus, the Cream Bronzer can be used so many ways - on your face or eyes. As a makeup artist I’m all about multi use products, especially ones that give you an overall bronzed glow.
What products are you loving most from the range and why?
Eliza – My top pick is the Luminous Gold Glow Drops! They give a radiant, dewy finish that I love. You can mix them in with your moisturiser or foundation for a bronzed glow. The ingredients are also great for hydrating skin – Kakadu Plum, Rosehip extracts and Shea Butter! It’s a new must-have in my makeup bag.
Lisa – I love the Colour of the Bronze Goddess Liquid Eyeliner! The soft shimmery brown shade adds a subtle touch of glam to the eyes. It’s so soft and easy to use. We also formulated it to dry quickly to avoid smudging for easy application.
Clara – My faves are the two Lip Oils in Pink Sunset and Solar Kiss. We made them with Jojoba, Coconut and Vitamin E, so they hydrate and condition your lips instead of drying them out. I love that it provides the perfect gloss, shine and colour while being a non-sticky formula – no more getting your hair stuck in your lip gloss!

Gone are the days of un-functioning makeup products that stick to dry patches, cause break outs or just don’t provide the colour payoff that you were wanting. Skincare infused makeup (also known as skincare-makeup) has recently become the new girl on the block and she’s here to stay.
Why has skincare-makeup become so popular? The desire for cosmetic products that don’t weigh down skin, improve the look and feel of your complexion and to cut down your morning routine has been the key driving factors.
Illuminate skin from within with our skincare infused ingredients in our new Golden Hour collection. This range of skincare-makeup hybrids has been designed to help you glow from the inside out, even after your makeup is removed, to create a radiant makeup look.
For a Sunny, Dewy and Hydrated Look with the Luminous Gold Glow Drops
Achieve instant luminosity with our antioxidant rich Luminous Gold Glow Drops. This wash of golden shimmer contains hydrating Rosehip and Shea Butter, alongside brightening Kakadu Plum. High in Vitamin C, the antioxidant properties help to protect skin against free radical damage, pollution and environmental stressors. These ingredients work harmoniously to provide a sheer wash of sunny colour with long lasting hydration that can be felt long after application.
Lip care infused with Nourishing Plant Oils
Get the shine of the lip gloss without the stickiness - our Glossy Lip Oil provides plumping hydration and a hint of colour. Available in two shades, this 2-in-1 lip treatment is non-greasy and contains nourishing Jojoba Oil, softening Grapeseed Oil teamed with Vitamin E to improve skin elasticity, and Coconut Oil which is rich in fatty acids. These fatty acids benefit the skin by softening, hydrating and improving skin barrier function. The vegan friendly formulation is also fragrance free. 
Perfectly Sun-kissed Skin with our Cream Bronzer
Bronzy skin with a glow – our Summer Glow Cream Bronzer melts into skin, whilst adding a touch of sheer bronzy warmth. The hydrating formula combines rich Shea Butter, the moisturising and antioxidant properties of Jojoba Oil and Coconut Oil. Whilst Candelilla ensures the product creates a breathable layer on the skin to retain moisture and won’t clog pores, making it great for all skin types. Skin is left with a buildable, luminous, natural glow from mineral pigments.
Complexion Boosting Cheek Products
Say hello to juicy cheeks with a pinch of colour with our Sodium Hyaluronate infused Champagne Dreams Liquid Highlighter and Radiant Cloud Liquid Blush. The silky formulation contains meadowfoam, a powerful emollient that is non-comedogenic, hypoallergenic and helps the skin retain moisture. The liquid blush and liquid highlighter provide the skin with buildable colour and a dewy, glazed appearance upon application.
Create your own glowy makeup look with the skin-loving ingredients from our Golden Hour collection.

Awaken your inner bronzed goddess and enjoy those balmy summer evenings with a sunkissed makeup look that’ll have you glowing from day thought to night.
Like clockwork, as soon as those sunny summer days hit, every fiber of my being yearns for glowy, bronzed skin that looks as though I’ve been kissed by the warm, flattering light of golden hour.
Our new Golden Hour collection is what sunkissed dreams are made of! If you’ve ever felt as though your makeup kit was missing that special something, this collection is it. Instead of overpowering shimmer, these luminous, skin-loving formulas deliver a soft, radiant glow that enhances your natural beauty while keeping your skin hydrated. Whether you’re after subtle warmth or a full golden-hour glow, this collection has everything you need. Let us help you master your look with expert tips and easy-to-follow guides.
The secret to radiant skin - A lit from-within glow
The key to the ultimate “golden hour glow” is all about luminosity.
Using our Luminous Gold Glow Drops, mix a couple of drops with your foundation or moisturiser for an all-over radiance boost. Or, wear them alone under your foundation or tinted moisturiser for a stunning, lit-from-within glow.
These glow drops work beautifully underneath makeup or mixed into foundation thanks to their skin-loving ingredients. Let the glow-giving Kakadu Plum and Rosehip, plus nourishing Shea Butter keep your skin hydrated and your makeup looking fresh all day long.
Bright eyes with bold impact
Once your base is complete, bring definition to your eyes with our Golden Hour Eyeshadow Book.
For a look that makes your eyes pop, follow our step-by-step guide (or, for our visual learners watch our handy TikTok makeup tutorial here.)
How-to apply:
- With a fluffy brush, blend ‘Sandstone’ into the crease. Sweep any remaining shadow across the eyelid
- Apply ‘Shell’ towards the brow bone to create a seamless transition and eliminate harsh lines
- Using a flat brush, apply ‘Sunrise’ across the mobile eyelid, keeping it below the crease
- With a smaller fluffy brush, apply ‘Twilight’ to the outer corners for depth, blending into the crease
- For the final touch, use your ring finger to dab ‘Sunset’ onto the center of your lid and let this shimmer bring a little sparkle to the eyes!
Pro tip: Apply eyeshadow before concealer for ease of clean up and to create a polished look.
A touch of metallic magic
Add the finishing touch to your eye look with your choice of our Metallic Liquid Eyeliners.
For years, longtime Natio fans have been asking for a blue eyeliner, and when I say we’ve overdelivered, I mean no exaggeration! Not only do our Metallic Liquid Eyeliners come in two sparkling shades, but they offer intense pigmentation and a precision tip for effortless application.
As someone who has never been particularly great at applying eyeliner, I’m always on the lookout for foolproof formulas. With these liners, I can confidently freehand my application. They glide on like a dream and don’t bleed into any fine lines around the eyes, making them the ultimate gamechanger!
The bronzer that steals the spotlight
As a longtime Natio fangirl (even long before working here) I never thought any bronzer could replace my beloved Mineral Pressed Powder Bronzer Sunswept... until our Summer Glow Cream Bronzer entered the chat.
If you prefer a bronzer that leans less on the orange side and delivers a naturally sunkissed glow, look no further - this is the bronzer of your dreams. Don’t let the subtle hint of shimmer scare you, as once applied to the skin it blends seamlessly to make me look like I’ve just returned from a glorious 6-week holiday in Europe.
How-to apply:
- Sweep the bronzer along the outer perimeters of your forehead where the sun naturally hits
- Apply underneath the cheekbones to create soft definition
- Lightly blend along the jawline for a sculpted finish
- Add a touch across the nose (this step seals the deal for that fresh-from-the-sun glow)
For a seamless, natural finish, apply using a patting motion with fingers or a stippling motion with a brush. When it comes to bronzer, just remember there’s no such thing as over blending.
A flush of colour
While on the topic of a sunkissed glow, it’s time to embrace blush blindness and achieve a natural flush that ties your entire base makeup application together with our Radiant Cloud Liquid Blush.
For a soft, seamless blend, apply a few dots of blush to the apples of your cheeks and blend upward toward your temples.
Unlike some other blushers, the lightweight, buildable formula melts into the skin for a natural-looking glow that lasts all day without any need for touch ups.
To take your glow to that next level, dot the Champagne Dreams Liquid Highlighter onto the high points of your face such as the cheekbones, brow bone, and the tip of your nose. Blend with your fingers or a brush for a radiant, light-reflecting finish that catches the sun just right.
Gorgeously hydrated lips
No golden hour makeup look is complete without the perfect glossy pout.
For a polished finish, start by lining your lips with your favorite Natio Lip Liner to enhance shape and definition. Then, complete the look with our Glossy Lip Oil made with a nourishing formula that delivers a glass-like shine while keeping lips soft and hydrated.
Infused with hydrating ingredients, this lip oil is the perfect balance between skincare and makeup, ensuring your lips stay plump and comfortable all day long.

Golden Hour all day long
With our Golden Hour collection and our easy how-to guides, achieving a radiant, sunkissed glow has never been easier. Whether you’re heading out for a summer brunch with your friends or basking in the golden light of sunset, your makeup will have you glowing from dawn to dusk.
