Purified Water

We could say ‘Aqua”

Almond Oil

High in the types of fatty acids needed for troubled skin.

Olive Oil

Wonderfully healthy for the skin. So many good things it might be best to Google "Olive Oil Skin" instead.

Emulsifying Wax

Creams are made from a mix of purified water and oils so as to be more moisturising than oil alone. To hold water and oils together, they need an emulsifying wax. We use a plant based wax that allows the water and oils to stay together.

Allantoin
(Comfrey Root Active)

Comfrey Root has long been known as a healing plant. Allantoin was identified as the part of the plant that performed this function and it has since been synethised to make it more concentrated and effective.  So the allantoin we use is the pure ingredient. Allantoin has been termed a cell proliferant in texts such as the "United States Dispensatory". It is said to clean away dead tissue, hastening the growth of new healthy tissue. Allantoin has been also termed a counter irritant. Allantoin produces its desirable effects by promoting and speeding up the healthy, natural processes of the body. It helps the skin to help itself. It is also promoted as preventing lines and wrinkles by assisting skin repair

Aloe Vera

Most people already know the healing and soothing benefits of Aloe Vera. We loved it before we made skin care, and we love it in our creams.

Honey

We initially added this because of the good effects for the skin. However, we love it most for the balance it gives to the Apple Cider Vinegar. A beautiful smelling cream without fragrance.

Vitamin E

We use natural Vitamin E which is a mix of both Alpha and Gamma Tocopherol. This is important as many products use only Alpha Tocopherol Vitamin E, while it is Gamma Tocopherol that is is considered the best anti-oxidant for skin. Vitamin E functions on the skin to protect cells against free-radical damage, and an abundant assortment of researchers from diversified medical fields have theorized that this can slow the aging process. (Sources: Skin Pharmacology and Applied Skin Physiology, November-December 2001, and Free Radical Biology and Medicine, October 1999).

Guarsilk

A guar based skin conditioner which gives the skin a silky smooth finish.

Apple Cider Vinegar

We added this originally to lower the pH to that of the skin. But we also love the smell of the cream with this and honey

Pirotone Olamine

Non-irritating and also helps keep the cream free from bacteria.

Tea Tree, Rosemary & Lavender Essential Oils

Helps control the microflora of the skin that can lead to skin problems in oily and moist areas of the body. Helps give the cream it’s ‘miracle cream’ title.
