Health, Beauty & Wellness Awards 2024

Health, Beauty & Wellness Awards 2024 | 39 Best Small-Batch Skincare Range 2024 Chanla Chau Cosmetics is an award-winning, woman-owned, and plantbased skincare line formulated by its namesake, an aesthetician with almost two decades in the beauty industry. Making these clean beauty products in small batches once per month to ensure both their freshness and potency, this small business provides products that can be likened to fresh produce. When a customer receives their order, it will be just a few days old and already at its peak, ready to be used in all of its nutrientrich glory. We speak with Chanla to learn more about this award-winning product line. Providing its customers with products that are about as fresh as you can get anywhere in the world, Chanla Chau Cosmetics is small and health conscious, two areas prized by its loyal customer base. Passionate about taking care of the environment by using only responsibly sourced ingredients and packaging for all of its products, the business recognises that its products may not be some of the most cost effective on the market, but their remarkable results and commitment to putting the planet first make them well worth the investment. What sets Chanla’s brand apart from others is its unwavering dedication to nature and quality in equal measure. Each and every ingredient used is handpicked by Chanla herself, ensuring that no toxic or padding ingredients make their way into the formula. The freshness of these products means that they usually have to be used within a few months to yield the full benefits. Chanla’s two children both use these products, and it is her aim for all parents to feel safe knowing that their children are using kind and natural solutions. This ties into the wider demand present across today’s health and beauty sector, with consumers seeking out more natural options for their skin. This is a change that Chanla is incredibly grateful for. Although many of the big box stores are simply hopping on the trends surrounding natural living and clean beauty, Chanla and her business are in it for the long run, an ethos that extends to every element of their operation, right down to the fully biodegradable packing peanuts that are shipped out with every order. Through Chanla Chau Cosmetics, besides quality natural products, what Chanla offers is the opportunity for a few important moments of self-care. As she explains, “every day is incredibly busy and sometimes it feels like we are always rushing, or even on autopilot. I think it’s important to slow down and do things with intention, so to start your morning caring for yourself is such a great way to get the day going. You’ll spend a few minutes doing your skincare and setting the tone for the rest of your day, and it feels good.” Bolstered by a small and dedicated team who have proved invaluable in Chanla growing Chanla Chau Cosmetics into the leading smallbatch skincare range it is today, Chanla tells us that her team are all defined by their openmindedness, encouragement for each other, and positive attitude. As Chanla herself aptly puts it, “when I have a new idea, I ask their input and am wowed at what everyone has to say. Each person brings something different to the table. Between everyone, I have the dream team!” Of course, things have not always been easy for Chanla, something that any small business owner can attest to. Having to fill multiple roles at once, one particular area where Chanla has struggled has been social media, where the early days of her business saw her set aside a lot of time to create posts that would garner little to no engagement. Or so she thought. Even though people were not liking or commenting, they came to recognise the brand and its sales steadily increased, demonstrating the importance of persistency and consistency. Both of these elements have proven incredibly beneficial across the Chanla Chau Cosmetics brand, which is expected to have doubled or even tripled its 2023 numbers by the end of this year. What really motivates Chanla is the knowledge that her skincare line is finding its way into the hands of new people every week, with her customers sharing these products with their family and friends. The organic growth the brand is experiencing is thus a sight to behold, making it worthy of being celebrated with this award.
