Virgin Hemp Seed Oil possesses powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Many scientists agree it is the most perfect nutritional oil for the skin.

We've also added something new: infused into this wonderful product, is fresh Ginger and fresh Tumeric. Both are nutritional superstars for the skin. And two butters are included too.

What's in it?

Reverse Osmosis Purified Water virtually all skin care products 'say' they use purified water. But the real deal is reverse osmosis purified water. This mean ZERO contaminants which means the starting point is pure. It's expensive to do (goes through 5 filters, which have to be changed often), but it is the only water we use. We use the waste water from this purifying process to water our flowers and landscaping. So there is no waste. Don't some products use distilled water? Yes but distilled water is environmentally expensive to make (heat is used to boil the dirty water and steam is collected). The problem we have with distilled water is it has a lower pH due to the extra ions added during the process. it's very harsh. We prefer to work with pH neutral water. To me there is no more perfect water than R-O water. I remember the 1st time we made soap with it. As we poured the soap it was so creamy! It looked like home made ice cream right before it gets solid. It's one of our special secrets to how good our products are. Again, no one does this.

Virgin Hemp Seed Oil: (Cannabis Sativa Seed Oil) Hemp seeds are rich in protein, polyunsaturated fatty acids, omega 6, omega 3 and insoluble fiber. They are a good source of tocopherols, or Vitamin E antioxidants. ... High in essential fatty acids, Omega 6 and omega 3, hemp oil can be used to increase immunity, counteract aging skin and improve cardiovascular health. There is no THC, so you cannot test positive for marijuana.

Emulsifying wax: This is a vegetable wax that is used to combine the oils and water.

Mowrah Butter: (Bassia latifolia seed butter) Also known as Mahua butter, it is derived from the fruit kernels of the Madhuca (butter) tree, which is native of India. In India this butter has both cosmetics and edible uses. It is known to reduce the degeneration of skin cells, prevent wrinkles, and restore skin flexibility. Although a solid at room temperature, Morah butter melts when it comes into contact with skin. Mowrah butter is high in oleic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid and linoleic acid. Mowrah butter is regenerative and emollient.

Cocoa Butter (Prime Pressed). Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Seed Butter. This butter is great for giving firmness to a moisturizer. We decided to use the full scented version of this cocoa butter, to take advantage of its smell. Many people love the chocolate smell of real cocoa butter.

Stearic acid: is not an acid, but another vegetable wax. Adds creaminess.

Glycerin (Vegetable) Unless a skin care product specifically says vegetable glycerin on the label, the glycerin they almost always use contains animal derived glycerin. I won't even get into describing what part of the animal they use. Think of everything in a cow and pig they cannot sell as food. Yes everything. EVERYTHING! Put it this way it is a big joke in the cosmetic community how many vegetarians are using animal based products and don't know it. We weren't laughing. We don't use animal derived ingredients because we just don't know what is in them. To increase their weight, they pump a lot of stuff into animals right before slaughter.

Cetyl Stearyl Alcohol (vegetable wax) this is a waxy vegetable ingredient used to give the moisturizers a bit of heft and contact feel. It also is a lubricant.

Germall Plus (diazolidinyl Urea, 3-Iodo-2-propylbutylcarbarmate) (a vegetable derived preservative to keep our product fresh) Look before you ask, no totally natural preservative really protects products from bacteria. We don't like using Parabens. and since we pH balance our moisturizers we are limited in our choice of preservatives. What's great about this one is so little is needed to afford protection.

Optiphen: additional preservative. anytime we use herbs in a formulation we find many times it needs a bit more preserving

Best if used within one year of receipt. I'll bet no skin care product you have bought from a store was made within the last year. Most of the products were made years ago. We find we can better control our quality if we make products as they are used. Fresh just makes for better skin care products. Our families all use our products. We only sell what we would use.

No animal ingredients or testing EVER! We also get assurances from our suppliers that all of our raw ingredients are not animal derived or any animal testing done there either.

Most skin care products you buy to use today, were made in large factories years ago and have been in storage. Everything we ship was made in small batches within a few weeks of shipping. Fresh matters! Quality ingredients matter!

Most of our ingredients are as close to natural as possible. We avoid overly processed ingredients. Processing means high heat and that destroys the goodness in these precious ingredients we use.
