Newsletter - August 2022

Welcome to our summer 2022 Newsletter

What a summer this is shaping up to be – with record temperatures, blue skies and endless days on the beach. So much has been going on since our last update, it is difficult to put it all in a short update.  

2022 Natural Health & Beauty Magazine Awards  

Following several wins in 2021, including recognition as 2021 "Organic Innovator", we were delighted and honoured that, for the second year running, we were finalists in the prestigious Natural Health Beauty Awards, in four categories this time.  

Hosted at the prestigious Tewesbury hotel and conference centre in Welwyn Garden City on the 14th July, the Natural Health and Beauty Awards have become a global symbol of excellence, recognising the achievements of key players as well as up and coming brands in the beauty industry. Judged by a panel of highly respected influencers and industry experts, the awards celebrate the very best the natural beauty industry has to offer, from products and brands to retailers. 

It was certainly a great feeling to be listed and recognised as a finalist, alongside well-known global brands such as Dr Hauschka, Neal’s Yard and Tropic and whilst we unfortunately did not win this time, we thoroughly enjoyed being part of the event, meeting enthusiastic, like-minded people, exchanging ideas and making many new friends.  

Competition 

Over the past weeks, we have been running a national competition through Natural Health Magazine, offering entrants a chance to win a bundle of Maiiro products.   

The competition lasts until 14th August – and it is still not too late to enter. Full details can be found on https://comps.womenshealthmag.co.uk/

Maiiro on the Pier 

With the cruise-ship season once again in full swing after two years of Covid related restrictions, town has been buzzing with happy tourists, providing a welcome boost to local shops.  

With our unique range of seaweed inspired beauty products, we have taken advantage of the weather to meet with hundreds of tourists from the comfort of the Pier 17 terrace on the Albert Pier. Soaking up the sun and taking in the iconic views of St Peter Port, Maiiro has been offering visiting holiday makers a truly local, quality taste of Guernsey, providing them with a lasting memory of our beautiful island home, before moving to their next destination. 

Many thanks to Seamus for his support!
