Who we are

We created this range with the inspiration to make a positive difference to all who use it. We believe that just by changing something as simple as our skin care, we can improve the way we look, feel and how we impact the environment around us.

A note from the founder – Theme Rains

theme"My involvement in Synthesis 345 springs from a total life commitment to discover, nurture and promote ways that make a positive difference to the wellbeing of humanity and the total environment.

Over the last 12 years I have worked in the fields of alternative healing, energy work and conscious living, both in Australia and in the USA, and taken part in helping to establish an organic, ethical lifestyle in co-operation with others in the greater Byron Bay area of Australia. This has involved exploring alternative healing modalities and all aspects of conscious living. In discovering more about consciousness and our innate desire and capacity to live in harmony, so too grew a profound sense of responsibility for the sacred gift of life, a passion for truth and the care of the earth and all living things. This passion allowed the co-establishment of ‘The Thin Green Line’ – an organic, Fair trade, eco-lifestyle shop and conscious wellbeing centre.

As I grew increasingly aware and sensitive to the consequences of my lifestyle choices I began to consider the effect on my body and soul of the multitude of artificial chemicals contained (and most often tested on animals) within skincare products. 

It very quickly became obvious to me that something as intimate as skincare, something so regularly applied and absorbed into our body, had to be as pure as possible and full of positive energy. Thus began Synthesis 345.

A true synthesis of many talents; the technical team that has gathered to manifest the unique formulas, incorporating state-of-the-art ingredients with a certified organic standard, all share the same values that drive the quality and purity of Synthesis 345. 

The team have a combined experience of over 50 years in the natural and organic skin care industry. Our cosmetic chemist is acclaimed for her biodynamic gardening skills and her formulas that are clean, green and biodegrade within 48 hours. Our aromatherapist has received international acclaim over the last 20 years for her groundbreaking work in this field.

In an industry where brands can be marketed as 'natural' and 'organic', even if far from it, the certified organic standard shines like a beacon of hope, and my gratitude goes out to all who have helped to develop and uphold this benchmark.

May you find a quiet moment each day to be nurtured and uplifted by these beautifying gifts, created to nourish not only your skin, but your whole being."
