BEHIND THE BRAND
Tata Harper's skincare line is defined by its unwavering commitment to beauty and purity. As a trailblazer in the realm of natural luxury skincare, Tata Harper was driven by her inability to find products that met her exacting standards for effectiveness, quality, and purity. This led her to create her own line, designed for herself and for those who demand the best in both health and beauty.
At her organic farm in Vermont's Champlain Valley, Tata and her team of green beauty experts blend nature with science. They harness the power of over 400 ingredients from 75 countries, crafting potent, nature-based formulas that push the boundaries of skincare technology. Every Tata Harper product is meticulously crafted, batched, and filled on the farm to ensure the highest level of freshness. The entire range is 100% free of GMOs, toxins, fillers, artificial colors and fragrances, and synthetic chemicals, reflecting a deep commitment to pure, uncompromised skincare.

Jack's Private Camp
A relic of one of the world's largest super-lakes, the Makgadikgadi dried up thousands of years ago as a result of the continued shifting of the earth's crust. Jack's Camp is sited in this prehistoric setting offering just ten bedouin-style suites. Here, in the cool interiors of your private deck, the striking desert contrast is truly appreciated.
A trailblazer in desert aesthetics, Jack's Camp has designed this Private Villa for families, complete with a private deck and pool, creatively aligned to harmonize with the sun's trajectory and gentle breezes. This strategic orientation, coupled with ample shade and continuous airflow, offers a blissful escape from the Kalahari's sizzling temperatures.
Yet, the ultimate luxury at Jack's lies in disconnecting from the world, relishing the serene companionship of the desert's tranquil silence.
The color palette of Jack's Private Camp draws inspiration from the vibrant hues of desert life, reflecting the rich tapestry of the environment, its people, and the surrounding landscapes.
Dry season photography
There's always some mystery unfolding in the light of the African plains. Skittish zebra approach the swelling pans, their spell of caution broken as a vast cloud of dust erupts when a herd of Cape buffalo charges across the floodplains of the Okavango.
These majestic creatures play a crucial role in shaping the landscape, as their grazing and movement through the undergrowth maintain open spaces for predators to thrive and hunt.
Dry periods and droughts are natural occurrences that help stabilize ecosystems and wildlife populations. Just as wet cycles characterized by increased rain benefit specific wildlife, dry periods bring advantages for others such as African Wild Dog, Hyena, Lion and Vultures. The shorter grasses result in more visible game viewing, perfect for photography.
