Nutrition Information
ACTIVE INGREDIENTS: Witch Hazel, Shea Butter, Almond Oil, Grape Seed, Coconut Oil, Apricot Kernel, Jojoba, Calendula, Sesame Seed Oil and Colloidal Silver.
Witch Hazel: One of the most widely used cosmetic ingredients, it is a skin freshener and astringent made from the leaves and/or twigs of Hamamelis virginiana.The plant is valued for its astringent and firming effects and its stimulation of connective tissue. Witch hazel thus helps to give a clear, rosy complexion on account of its astringent and soothing properties.
Almond Oil: helps to soften Dandruff, thereby facilitating its elimination and alleviates dry skin. Almond paste was a favourite early European cleanser. An oil that absorbs well during massage and protects the skin. Best used on normal to dry skins. Can be blended with other nutrient rich oils or essential oils.
Grape Seed Extract: Maintains the integrity of the Skin's Collagen and Elastin - by quenching the Xanthine Oxidase enzyme that catalyses the production of the detrimental Collagenase and Elastase enzymes. This activity helps to prevent some aspects of Skin Aging. Grape Seed assists in inhibiting the development of Wrinkles (by enhancing the body's renewal of Collagen, inhibiting excessive Cross-Linking and inhibiting the Hyaluronidase enzyme).
Coconut Oil: widely used in the manufacture of baby soaps, shampoos, shaving lathers, cuticle removers, pre-shaving lotions, hair-dressings, soaps, ointment bases, and massage creams. Stable when exposed to air. Lathers readily and is a fine skin cleanser. Coconut Oil helps alleviates dry skin.
