Apricot Kernel

Apricot kernel oil, taken from the kernel of the seeds of the apricot tree (Prunus armeniaca), is often used in hair care, massage oils. It is an excellent softener for the delicate skin of the face especially the eye, mouth and neck area. This is very soothing oil, recommended for sensitive skin, dry or inflamed, mature or prematurely ageing skin, it is lovely and light in texture and is readily absorbed into the skin, we use this in both our soap bars and moisturisers.

Castor Oil

Castor Oil is a smooth, rich oil that help when wanting a protective barrier between the skin and the environment. It is extracted from the seeds of the castor plant (Ricinus communis) and is used wildly in large quantities in commercial lipsticks because of it's excellent emollient capabilities. Castor oil helps to shine hair when used in conditioners, we use this is most of our products.

Cocoa Butter

Cocoa butter is a great skin lubricant, it's natural cocoa scent is a plus. Coco butter is solid fat from the roasted seed of the cacao plant (Theobroma cacao), this is composed of around 50% solid butterfat. This butter is a wonderful addition to lotions, creams, soaps and balms.

I love Australian macadamia oil (Macadamia integrifolia), this oil is similar to the sebum produced by human skin. It is very emollient and soothing. absorbs extremely well and is one of the luxury oils, we use this in nearly every product we make, it is one of my most favorites.

Olive oil does not block the natural functions of the skin, we use it in nearly all our products.
