Introducing A Better – Mind, Body, Spirit: Clean Wellness Backed by Science

At Monecious Hair Skin Health, we’re always in search of products that do more than just feel good—they must also be rooted in science, deliver real results, and support total wellness from the inside out.
That’s why we’re thrilled to introduce A Better – Mind, Body, Spirit—a brand we not only believe in, but use ourselves.
Their products honour the intelligence of the body, while being backed by research in areas like detoxification, inflammation, circulation, cellular hydration, and skin barrier function.
Let us tell you exactly why these rituals aren’t just trendy—they’re scientifically powerful.
Why A Better Fits Our Science-First Philosophy
Each A Better product supports key systems in the body that modern wellness science now recognises as essential for long-term health:
- The lymphatic system, your body’s drainage network, which removes toxins and supports immune response.
- The liver, which filters everything from hormones to pollutants.
- Cellular hydration and antioxidant defence, critical for energy, skin repair, and slowing aging.
- The skin barrier and microbiome, which are now recognised as core to overall health and inflammation.
These systems can’t be supported by surface care alone—and A Better’s products go deeper.
The Products (and The Science Behind Them)
Pure Organic Castor Oil
Castor oil is high in ricinoleic acid, which has been studied for its ability to:
-
- Reduce inflammation (by suppressing prostaglandin E2)
- Support immune cell production, like lymphocytes
- Promote circulation and peristalsis (gut movement)
In a 2011 review, ricinoleic acid was found to have analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties [source: Journal of Ethnopharmacology].
Applied topically, it acts as an emollient that helps restore the skin barrier, reduces trans-epidermal water loss, and increases skin softness.
Reusable Castor Oil Waist Wrap + Cotton Inserts
This wrap allows you to localise castor oil treatment—often over the liver or lower abdomen—to:
-
- Stimulate lymphatic drainage
- Reduce bloating and inflammation
- Encourage liver detox enzyme production (especially Phase I & II enzymes)
Combined with warmth, these treatments can help stimulate the vagus nerve, bringing your nervous system into a relaxed, parasympathetic state—essential for healing and digestion.
Face Oil Moisturiser & Hair Oil
These are rich in:
-
- Omega fatty acids (for barrier repair)
- Vitamin E (a known antioxidant)
- Plant-based esters that help mimic the skin’s own sebum
A healthy skin barrier is key to preventing inflammation, dehydration, and acne flare-ups. Oils like jojoba have been shown to reduce trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL) and improve elasticity.
Jojoba Oil
Structurally similar to human sebum, jojoba:
-
- Balances oil production
- Contains wax esters that help seal in moisture
- Is non-comedogenic, meaning it hydrates without clogging pores
Studies have shown it also has anti-inflammatory properties, helpful for eczema, acne, and dermatitis.
Hair Wrap, Heat Pack & Oil Wraps Pack
These tools enhance the absorption and effectiveness of oils while adding gentle infrared heat, which:
-
- Improves microcirculation in the skin and scalp
- Helps relax fascia and tight muscles
- Makes oils like castor and jojoba more bioavailable
