Key Ingredients:
White Orchid Extract – the white orchid is a flower that is well known for its beauty and fragrance; it has been used in Asia for centuries mostly for its reparative and protective properties, moisturizing, anti-oxidants, increasing skin immunity and reducing the appearance of fine lines. Ideal for all skin types and rich in minerals which exist naturally in the skin, such as zinc, calcium, magnesium, iron and copper.
Shea Butter - shea butter nourishes the skin with vitamins A, E and F. Vitamins A and E help maintain the skin and keep it clear and healthy. They are particularly helpful for sun damaged skin. They help prevent premature wrinkles and facial lines. Vitamin F acts as a skin protector and rejuvenator. Shea Butter easily penetrates the skin allowing the skin to breathe while not clogging the pores.
Sweet Almond Oil - This is a fine, emollient, non-drying fixed oil expressed from the kernel of the sweet almond. Odorless, it is used for conditioning and softening the skin and is great for dry, itchy skin. It is used in massage oils, lotions, balms, soaps and moisturizers.
Jojoba Oil - though technically not an oil, this is a yellow wax pressed from the bean of a dessert plant. It is similar to the skins own sebum. It contains a substance similar to collagen, which gives skin a silky smooth feel. Jojoba oil penetrates deeply to increase skin softness and reduce superficial lines and wrinkles. It seems that the reason jojoba works so well is that the skin accepts it as sebum and allows it to penetrate. Useful for acne, eczema, hair conditioner, inflamed skin, psoriasis.
Aloe Vera - aloe vera is also known as medicinal aloe, medicine plant, burn plant. The best known use of aloe is the topical treatment of minor burns and scalds; the gel can heal wounds, soothe irritable rashes, stings, bites and ulcers and help manage acne and eczema.
