Essential Oils
The best quality essential oils are used in our creations from candles to cremes. We decided to use only organic and foodgrade scents approved for human intake and aromatherapy. These naturally water distilled oils are sourced locally if possible.
Almond Oil
Made from sun ripe cold pressed sweet almonds, this organic oil is known for it’s skin calming nature and found in many traditional anti aging recipes. This oil provides lots of moisture without clogging your pores and has a medium absorption rate.
Jojoba Oil
Jojoba oil is pressed from the nut like fruit of a desert tree. It is known for its wound healing properties and high Vitamin E content. Jojoba oil is really a wax, that doesn’t go rancid which prolongs shelf life naturally. It has a fast absorption rate and a mild nutty scent that pairs well.
Sheabutter
Organic sheabutter will provide extra moisture for all skin types. We don’t use factory refined sheabutter to avoid toxic chemicals. This natural butter is made from organic african berries and purified by only hot water vapor to eliminate the use of chemicals.
Beeswax
Beeswax acts as a natural barrier from the environment while moisturizing your skin. Its high Vitamin A content will help to prevent wrinkles and keep the skin elastic. It’s tradtionally known as a remedy for skin irritation. The beeswax we use is all organic and locally sourced.
Soywax
Sustainable Soywax is a great alternative to petroleum based wax used in common candles. To avoid toxic fumes in your home while burning, it’s best to use a natural base for your candle. Soywax is also a neutral vegan alternative to beeswax.
