Camilla Thurlow and Jamie Jewitt won the nations heart’s back in 2017, following their appearance on ITV2’s reality show Love Island – and now they’re hoping to win pride of place on our bathroom shelves, too. The duo have launched their own eco-friendly beauty brand, Love Jamila, and it ticks all the boxes – natural, recyclable, cruelty-free as well as being kind to your skin, and others, too. Philanthropy is proudly at the core of the company, with 10 per cent of their turnover going towards Help Refugees (helprefugees.org), supporting asylum seekers across Europe and Middle East. As if a new range of ethical beauty products wasn’t enough to get excited about, Love Jamila gets extra brownie points for helping those in need. The collection is currently comprised of five items with plenty more in the works. We caught up with the power couple to find more.

About Be Kind
Hello,
If you’d asked me earlier this year what images
the Amazon rainforest conjured up in my mind, it
would be densely packed, lush green trees, brightly
coloured macaws and chatty toucans living alongside speedy
squirrel monkeys and majestic jaguars. Perhaps naively, I assumed
that the world’s largest rainforest was a constant – a protected
part of our natural landscape, somewhere we can all close our
eyes and see images of, like the Alps or the river Nile.
But, over the last few months, this idyllic picture of the
Amazon has been destroyed, replaced with haunting and
horrifying images of blazing fires and ominous plumes of smoke.
Often described as the lungs of the planet, the Amazon now
looks like it’s starting to choke. The anthropogenic impact we
have had on some of the most vital natural resources on the
planet is really starting to show.
The notion of constants is changing, too – our glaciers
are melting, our rainforests are being destroyed, our rivers are
polluted and our coastlines eroded – the landscape of our planet
as we know it looks set to continue to transform and degrade.
As bleak a future as I’m describing, it’s not all doom and gloom
and there are many things we can do to help. We want the future
generations to close their eyes and picture the toucans, not the
burning embers of what was once the greatest rainforest on
Earth. We need to act, and we
need to do it now.
Have a great month,
Phillipa
Editor
