Ingredients Intel

Organic Beeswax

Beeswax is a nutrient-rich substance, secreted from the glands on the sides of a honeybee’s body. We include it in our cremes to soften and hydrate the skin, it is a natural humectant, attracting water molecules and helping skin stay hydrated over time. Beeswax contains wax esters that also exist in human skin. It is vitamin-rich, especially high in vitamin A which helps the turnover and reconstruction of skin cells. Being an anti-inflammatory and hypoallergenic, beeswax creates a protective barrier on the skins surface, without clogging pores. Keeping toxins, irritations, bacteria and fungus out, as well as other environmental attack; thus, promoting healing and softening of the skin. Making it a naturally nourishing moisturizer as well as being antibacterial, antiallergenic and a germicidal antioxidant.

Beeswax obtains its golden color from the propolis and bee pollen inside, both also known for their incredible health benefits. It is one of the oldest and purest natural waxes. For hundreds of years, it has been used in cremes, lipsticks and other cosmetics.

Organic Wilelaiki Honey

Honey has been known for centuries to heal wounds and treat infection. It is antioxidant, antibiotic, antiviral and contains anti-inflammatory properties. When water is combined with honey, hydrogen peroxide is released in small amounts over time so that the antibiotic effect on your skin works slowly and very gently, making it ideal for sensitive skin. This helps greatly to reduce blemishes and pimples. Honey also stimulates collagen production, which is very important in the reduction of fine lines and wrinkles. Known also for its antioxidant properties, honey is a free-radical scavenger- it neutralizes damaging free radical at the molecular level. Honey is also a humectant (it attracts and retains moisture), and acts as an anti-irritant thus removing dirt and impurities without stripping the skin of natural oils. It contains minerals, vitamins, and natural enzymes, which nourish skin and help to refine skin texture. All these factors make honey a natural fit in our moisturizing products.

Tocopherols (Natural Vitamin E)

Vitamin E is a skin nutrient. It is an antioxidant helping to neutralize free radicals. Naturally slowing the aging of skin while booting collagen production and accelerating cell regeneration. It encourages collateral circulation in smaller blood vessels. Protects the skin against cell mutation from sun and pollution. Also, an anti-inflammatory, therefor soothing and hydrating sensitive skin. 

Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Extra virgin olive oil has a unique ability to be absorbed and supply nutrition to the skin. It is the most compatible oil to human skin because it has a similar composition of fatty acidsTherefore, it absorbs deeply into your skin, without blocking pores, resulting in long lasting moisture and nutrition absorption. It is also soothing and healing to all skin types, being high in anti-oxidants as well as Vitamin E and Vitamin A, which protect against age-accelerating free radicals while cleansing skin cells. Contains antibacterial properties and contains oleic acid (among other fatty acids) which reduces  

inflammation in the body while promoting skin elasticity. Olive oil has been used by ancient Egyptians, Romans and Phoenician as a beauty aid. We use extra virgin because it is cold pressed meaning the oil is extracted from olives using pressure and is not heated over a specific temperature, thus all nutritional value is retained.

Cypress essential oil regulates blood flow and tones the veins. Due to its antiseptic properties, it keeps pores clean and removes excess oil from the skin. It also helps to lighten scars and reduce swelling.
