Beeswax (Cera Alba)

Perfect for many skin conditions such as psoriasis, eczema, scars, stretch marks, and acne. Beeswax has strong antiseptic, healing, and anti-inflammatory properties. It helps protect and repair rough, dry, or chapped skin by locking in moisture. Its emollient properties are unlike anything else, as it doesn’t clog pores and allows the skin to breathe. Beeswax is an antioxidant that soothes and softens the skin, helping it retain moisture. It contains vitamin A, which is essential for human cell development, softening and re-hydrating the skin.

Cocoa Butter (Theobroma Cacao)

Yes, this is found in chocolate- and you can smell it in our products. The natural caffeine content in cacao offers anti-inflammatory benefits to reduce redness and promote healthy circulation for a soft, glowing complexion. This butter provides instant relief to dry skin along with being a good source of protective fatty acids and sulfur, which promotes healthy skin, nails, and hair. It also tastes and smells delicious.

African Shea Butter (Butyrospermum Parkii)

Originating from the seeds of the African karite tree, organic shea butter contains natural fats, oils, and waxes that provide moisturizing and conditioning to the skin and hair. Organic shea butter repairs skin and slows cellular degeneration, while offering extra protection against the sun’s harmful rays. It is anti-inflammatory, hypo-allergenic, antioxidant rich, ultra moisturizing, and skin-plumbing!

Hemp Seed Oil (Cannabis Sativa L.)

Deriving from the cannabis sativa plant, hemp oil contains several compounds with oil-reducing, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties that help improve scars by reducing healing time, boosting collagen levels. It stimulates healing processes, such as cellular turnover and regeneration. Hemp oil has a beneficial effect on dry, rough skin and skin conditions, such as skin dryness, itchiness, and acne.

Jojoba Oil (Golden Simmondsia Chinensis)

Pronounced huh-ho-buh, this liquid wax (yep, not actually an oil) works well on all skin types because it very closely resembles skin sebum. What is sebum you ask? Our bodies make sebum to lubricate, coat, moisturize, and protect our skin. Jojoba oil has excellent moisturizing emollient and protective effects. Heals, softens and penetrates the skin.

Cold-pressed Olive Oil (Olea Europaea L)

Olive Oil helps to repair damaged skin tissues and combats aging. It has a high content of vitamin A and E, which strengthens the epidermis and stimulates the production of collagen. It also has vitamins D and K, which makes it an ideal product to protect and nourish sensitive skin. Olive oil is ideal for repairing areas of dry and cracked skin, such as elbows and knees. In fact, the vitamin D contained in this oil can also help if you suffer from skin conditions such as rosacea and psoriasis, and acne since it calms down inflammation. Thanks to the high concentration of vitamins, minerals, oleic acid, and natural fatty acids, olive oil helps stimulate skin cell regeneration.

Virgin, Cold-pressed Coconut Oil (Cocos Nucifera)

Coconut oil is a magical elixir. It moisturizes the skin, minimizes the look of fine lines, wrinkles, and takes care of dryness while it protects skin against environmental stressors. It helps soothe skin irritation. Coconut oil is a good choice for sensitive skin and helps skin retain moisture, providing instant hydration and protection.

Vitamin E Oil (Tocopheryl Acetate)

Both a nutrient and an antioxidant that helps to rejuvenate your skin and restore lost moisture. It has been known to lighten scars and stretch marks. While healing damaged skin, it works as a great moisturizer!

Sunflower Lecithin

Better than soy lecithin, as it’s sustainability harvested and organic- no GMO! Works as an emulsifier—suspending fats and oils and keeping them from mixing.

Essential Oils

Essential Oils (EOs) are aromatic liquids pressed from herbs and other plants. Called oils, EOs are not fatty oils, they are concentrated pure plant essences that have been properly distilled at low temperatures. Serving as very powerful tools for oxygenating skin cells, many EOs kill viruses, bacteria, and restore the health and beauty of skin alongside of providing delicious aromas. Taking EOs and blending them with other pure plant oils (such as those aforementioned) do wonders put directly on skin. They can oxygenate, cleanse, and do their work. Unlike drug store body care products with “natural” scents, pure EOs do not contain synthetic ingredients.

Menthol Crystals

A solid constituent of mint oil, these 100% natural crystals originate from cornmint essential oil extraction. They are cooling, refreshing, and have a strong minty aroma. You’ll find them in a number of products, ranging from cosmetics, salves, medicated creams, throat lozenges, toothpaste, mouthwash, gum, foot sprays, shampoos, shaving creams, compresses, cooling gels, and liniments.
