  • Loved it

    I was absolutely thrilled to receive this product to trial. The bottle was beautiful and simple, and looked lovely on display in my bathroom. It had a velvety texture that was just the right consistency without being too heavy, and the scent wasn't overpowering but light and summery and enough for other people to notice, and they noticed and asked with interest. It has made my skin feel so soft and nourished.

    I have been using this religiously and will continue to do so.

  • Smooth to apply, fast absorbing, soft skin.

    This lotion was quite surprising to me, it was thick when put onto skin but smoothed out an absorbed very well leaving beautiful soft moisturised skin! The scent is very light yet refreshing. Unlike other lotions that are thick and gloopy, that never seem to absorb no matter how much you rub it in, you will not find that with this one. It is perfect when I’m in a rush in mornings busy getting kids ready as well as myself for work I can quickly use this lotion and not have to worry about taking forever to rub it in or it feeling yuck an oily. It feels lovely. I will be buying it again.

  • etch & ethos Nourishing Summer Citrus Body Lotion

    I found the etch & ethos Nourishing Summer Citrus Body Lotion to be lightweight and non greasy. I like the simple but pretty packaging and the handy pump pack. I didn’t overly enjoy the scent however. I did not detect any “summer citrus” which is the only let down of this otherwise nice lotion. The light fragrance might suit others but I myself would have preferred a slightly stronger scent like a lemongrass or something fresh and clean scented.

  • Even my partner that hates all moisturisers, liked it!

    Love that this came in a pump bottle as it really does make it so convenient to leave on the bathroom bench and quickly apply after a shower or before bed. The formula was lightweight, not greasy or heavy and absorbed quickly into my skin. Best of all it passed the fusspot partner test. He thinks all moisturisers are smelly and sticky, but he actually liked this one!

  • Super dry to super happy

    I have always really suffered from dry skin, especially on my legs. This moisturizer really surprised me, it went on super smooth and really absorbed into my skin well, giving my legs a super smooth appearance and didn't dry out after like an hour which I have found some moisturizers do. Would definitely be buying more of this product.

  • Lovely Summery Lotion

    etch & ethos Nourishing Summer Citrus Body Lotion is a lovely body lotion. It is very lightweight and absorbs quickly - unlike some heavy/greasy moisturisers. The Summer Citrus scent is refreshing and not overpowering - I normally purchase unscented lotions as I don't like fragrances so this was a pleasant change. I would happily purchase etch & ethos Nourishing Summer Citrus Body Lotion and recommend it to other mums who are in need of a few moments of pampering!

  • After shave lotion

    Today after I shaved my legs I decided to use Etch & Ethos on my legs. Oh my goodness it was the most soothing sensation. It felt fresh, soothing and so calming. All the itchiness and burning sensation from the shaving process disappeared instantly and didn’t return unlike with other moisturisers I’ve used. Plus one for Etch & Ethos as a soothing after shave lotion ????

  • Great lotion

    I really enjoyed using this lotion. It use easy to use & was quick drying (who like their clothes sticking to them ????). My sensitive skin (I’ve had eczema since my last pregnancy) didn’t flare up using this lotion, which is a win. Even my nearly 2 year old used it. My skin feels soft & smooth with no dry patches. The scent is very floral, maybe a bit too girly for me, next time I might use the citrus one for a more refreshing lotion. I love it.

  • Hydrates without the grease factor!!

    My pet hate with all creams and lotions is the "grease factor". I hate feeling like after you use it you still have a coating layered on your skin. I was so impressed that this soaked into my skin so fast and left it feeling hydrated and soft, but without leaving any greasy coating. It even passed the test of being able to open a door handle after using it! Smells delish, 10/10, would buy again!

Topics

Mum-of-two Rebecca McCracken has spent the last four years reading ingredient lists on pretty much everything she buys at the supermarket.

Like many parents raising kids with food allergies, a quick trip to the supermarket often means checking labels, comparing products and hoping to find something the whole family can eat.

Bec’s four-year-old son and 17-month-old daughter were both born with cow’s milk protein allergy. While her son has since outgrown his allergies, her toddler still reacts to dairy, making even everyday staples like bread a challenge.

“Unless we buy expensive sourdough for seven or eight dollars, we don’t really have a choice.”

Even then, it’s not ideal.

“A kid doesn’t want to eat a sourdough sandwich,” Bec laughs. “And fairy bread on sourdough is not great.”

A New Loaf On The Block

Bec runs an online community for allergy families, so she spends plenty of time sharing recipes, product finds and supermarket discoveries with other parents.

It was one of those parents who first told her about new JUST bread.

“A follower messaged me and said, ‘Oh my gosh, this bread is coming soon.’ I was like, ‘Where? When? I need to know. I’m getting my car keys and running!'”

Made with baker’s flour, water, yeast, vinegar, oil and salt, JUST bread contains no artificial preservatives, flavours or colours.

For Bec, it sounded almost too good to be true. “When we saw JUST bread, I was like, ‘You’re joking.’ A bread that’s fresh baked but in the bread aisle? That’s unheard of for us.”

“It was really exciting for our family and for the allergy community.”

The Family’s Toughest Critic Approved

Of course, there was one person whose opinion mattered more than anyone else’s.

“My toughest critic is my daughter. She is so fussy. We know something is really good if she approves it, and she approves it. She loves it. She’ll eat it plain, toasted, as French toast … whatever. She loves it.”

Bec says she was impressed too.

“I like it. I like that it’s only got minimal ingredients and doesn’t have the additives and preservatives that are in a lot of other brands.”

A Simpler Option For Everyday Families

Bec tried out JUST bread because of her family’s allergies, but she says it has a broader appeal.

“I think everyone is becoming more conscious of additives and preservatives in their food.”

It’s a feeling many of us can probably relate to. We don’t all want to overhaul the way we eat, but plenty of us are paying a little more attention to ingredient lists and looking for products that keep things simple.

Bread is one of those foods that’s always around. It ends up in lunchboxes, on the breakfast table, alongside soup on a cold night and covered in hundreds and thousands at birthday parties. When we eat something that often, it’s only natural to wonder what’s in it.

JUST bread keeps things simple with a handful of pantry ingredients and no artificial preservatives, flavours or colours. It’s the sort of loaf that fits easily into busy family life without asking us to compromise on taste or convenience.

Little Changes, Big Difference

 

For Bec, finding a loaf of bread her whole family can enjoy is about more than ticking another item off the shopping list.

“It seems like such a little thing to the normal community, but for us this is a massive win.”

Being able to make sandwiches without worrying about ingredients. Packing lunchboxes a little more easily. Bringing back fairy bread for birthdays. Sometimes it’s the little things that make family life feel a whole lot simpler.

And while Bec found JUST bread because she needed another allergy-friendly option, its simple ingredient list is likely to appeal to plenty of other families too. After all, when we can choose everyday foods made with ingredients we recognise, that’s a pretty good place to start.

JUST Bread is made on a line that also processes soy and sesame.


Mouths of Mums is proudly working with JUST. to bring you this article. JUST bread is made with just a handful of pantry ingredients.  JUST. The Good Stuff.

  • It’s at a good price point for families on a tight budget and is “cleaner” but missing the mark with Canola oil . I wouldn’t be running to a supermarket for it but it’s alot better than other varieties on the market. It’s nice to see supermarkets are at least trying and listening

    Reply

  • Most breads are dairy free anyway so I am surprised by this article. Additive free is a bonus. I always go for a grain bread nowadays and have the kids eating it too so I’ll be sticking with that. It’s always great to have variety out there though for the ones that need it.

  • We bought this bread from the supermarket and it is a good price for bread which of course can indeed be expensive. Each slice is a good size and our favourite meal to create and eat with this bread is cheese toasties. The bread holds and is good to eat.

  • I am so glad to hear about this and will definitely be on a look out for this in the supermarket. I have noticed that there are starting to be more ‘cleaner’ products in the supermarket, meaning consumers are being heard. We are going full circle back to how foods use to be produced before companies got greedy and started taking shortcuts to producing food items. I hope we continue seeing more preservative and additive free options that are affordable come back in the supermarkets.

  • Grabbing your car keys and running for a bread ?? I can’t imagine doing so for a bread lol ! It’s nice to see that more and more allergy friendly products are being produced and put on the market.
    I don’t agree with the statement that “A kid doesn’t want to eat a sourdough sandwich”. It depends on what type of bread you introduce to your kids. My kids grew up with 7 seeds, rustic bread and sourdough and they love it. It’s also quite easy and cheap to make sourdough bread yourself.

    Reply

  • I haven’t seen this bread in the supermarket but will be looking for it now. I have been trying to avoid preservatives and additives for some time now and as highlighted in the article bread it difficult to find, or super expensive, without them so I don’t have it often.

  • This is fantastic, finally a bread that is not full of nasty stuff. I will be going straight out to buy this. My son has ARFID and will only eat white bread, but it’s not terribly healthy. With this bread, at least I know that it is much healthier than the alternatives. Woohoo

  • what about gluten is it gluten free thats what i need

    Reply

  • I cant wait to give this bread a go (so far its always been sold out at my local woolies so it must be good). So good its suitable for those with allergies too. I think nowadays were all looking for cleaner options of ingredients in our foods so this is a step in the right direction.

  • I am glad more and more allergy friendly products are being produced and offered. I don’t agree with Bec’s statement that kids don’t like sourdough bread. My kids were introduced to sourdough and the most rustic and seeded breads from the time they started to eat bread, and they love it

    Reply

  • Oh I cannot wait to try this bread! We go through that much bread each week and I always feel so guilty with how much my kids have – not anymore! Would love to see them introduce other variants in the future – multigrain and gluten free would be superb!

    Reply

  • This is such a great product that I’m looking forward to trying! I’ve only been buying bread from bakeries the last few years because grocery store bread texture was so dense and unpleasant. But the hassle with bakery bread is I can’t get it everywhere! I’ll be really keen to give this a go
