Botanical Name: Simmondsia Chinensis

Extraction Method: Cold Pressed

Plant Part: Bean

Jojoba Oil is golden in color and comes from the beans of a shrub like plant, and it is actually a liquid plant wax. Jojoba oil is an actual wax that resembles the natural sebum (oil) of our own skin and is rich in vitamin E. Jojoba oil is excellent for every skin type, even oily skin as it is noncomedogenic, meaning it doesn’t clog pores. Jojoba oil is rich in iodine, which fights harmful bacteria growth that leads to breakouts. The antioxidants present in jojoba oil soothe fine lines, wrinkles and naturally slow down other signs of aging. 

Because Jojoba is not an oil but rather a wax, its shelf life and stability is considerably higher then most oils and rancidity is very rarely a concern.

Botanical Name: Rosa Canina

Extraction Method: Cold Pressed

Plant Part: Seed

Rosehip Oil is harvested from the seeds of rose bushes predominately grown in Chile. Rosehip Oil is considered a “drying oil” which means that it is quickly absorbed by the skin and does not leave an oily feel. In addition to its penetrating qualities, it is extremely high in essential fatty acids, vitamins and anitioxidants that are known to correct dark spots and hydrate dry, itchy skin, all while reducing scars and fine lines. It is also suitable for treating burns, scars and stretch marks. With beauty benefits like these, we believe rosehip seed oil has the potential to become the next coconut oil. 

Users can expect a shelf life of 2 years with proper storage conditions (cool, out of direct sunlight)

Product description

WHAT IS YELLOW SHEA BUTTER? Yellow shea butter is made from the same Karite nut (Butyrospermum parkii). It is processed similarly, but the root of the Borututu tree (Cochlospermum angolense) is added during the milling process. The root is responsible for the bright yellow color. Borututu is a medicinal plant from Africa. A tea made from the bark of the Borututu tree is useful to detoxify and to assist the functions of the liver and gallbladder. It is also used externally as a DETOX wash. Although both yellow and ivory shea butter come from the same source, the yellow variety is slightly more firm and takes a little longer to absorb into the skin. The smell is very similar to ivory shea butter, a slightly sweet and nutty scent. The two butters are more or less the same. Some people say that yellow is better for skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis, because it stays on the skin longer. Our preference is for ivory, due to it’s softer texture and neutral color. You cant go wrong either way, try both out for yourself and see which one you like better! Shea butter has been used to help heal burns, sores, scars, dermatitis, psoriasis, dandruff, and stretch marks. It may also help diminish wrinkles by moisturizing the skin, promoting cell renewal, and increasing circulation. Shea butter also contains cinnamic acid, a substance that helps protect the skin from harmful UV rays. Shea butter is a particularly effective moisturizer because contains so many fatty acids, which are needed to retain skin moisture and elasticity. The high fatty acid content of shea butter also makes it an excellent additive to soap, shampoos, anti-aging creams, cosmetics, lotions, and massage oils—its soft, butter-like texture melts readily into the skin. Shea butter protects the skin from both environmental and free-radical damage. It contains vitamins A and E, and has demonstrated both antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties.
