ETHICS, VALUES and FUTURE VISION
ABOUT ANOINT & VERDEL MACLEAN
Establishing one of the first Holistic Beauty Centres in Australia, and credited with more
than a decade in the Beauty Industry, Verdel Maclean became aware of the way a person’s
skin reflects their wellbeing. Convinced that in order to treat client’s skin effectively you
must understand what is happening on all levels.
Improve the wellbeing and you obviously improve the skin.
Knowing this and using her skills in Aromatherapy, Beauty Therapy and Metaphysics,
the Anoint® brand was born. Initially planning and formulating skincare products over
a few years, Verdel was intuitively guided to step forward with her passion with
the study of Chakras, instead of launching her skincare line.
"One example of a tradition in which I gain inspiration from is Ayurveda."
Originally from India, Ayurveda is called the science of longevity and has been
practiced for thousands of years. The core belief is that five elements
(air, earth, fire, water & ether) exist in different proportions, thereby
creating the entire universe. The use and application of essential oils 'aromatherapy'
is one technique used to influence and balance these elements. The Ayurvedic tradition
believes that these five elements make up three main mind/body types, or doshas,
that influence everything from physical characteristics to personality traits.
For true health, "the doshas" must exist on mental, physical and spiritual levels.
"These products are now being used by some of the most gifted spiritual healers and
holistic practitioners which is very exciting".
These products do not contain any petrochemicals, animal ingredients or known irritant
and are not tested on animals. Anoint sources natural flower and plant botanicals of the
purist origin. Verdel makes each batch through her ritual of prayer and meditation
infusing universal consciousness into each blend.
Verdel currently still performs treatments in her exclusive Eastern Suburbs retreat.
"It’s very intimate and I am able to focus on one client at a time.
Therefore you will never run into another client waiting, as there is 1/2hr between clients
arriving and departing. I have gained a strong client based on this individual service,
privacy and 'no gossip' policy."
