From The Eu

Antioxidant: protects oils and butters from rancidity.
Anti-aging: blocks the action of free radicals on the skin, notably reducing cellular damage caused by UV exposure.
Helps maintain skin and facial elasticity and hydration by strengthening the skin’s hydrolipidic film.

As an antioxidant:

In your balms, butters, care oils, massage oils, etc. to extend their shelf life
In your emulsions, especially if they contain oils sensitive to oxidation
Add to your bottles of 'sensitive' carrier oils as soon as you receive them to extend their shelf life.

As an antioxidant and active ingredient:

In your face creams or anti-ageing skin care oils
In your aftersun or sun preparation skin care products
In face care products for dry, dehydrated skin

The vitamin E we offer is for cosmetic use only.

Instructions for packaging disposal

EO = Essential Oil

VO = Carrier Oil or Macerated Oil

90 g organic shea butter
10 ml argan carrier oil
10 ml macadamia carrier oil
10 ml Chilean rosehip seed carrier oil
1 tsp aloe vera gel
10 drops gum rockrose essential oil
10 drops neroli essential oil
7 drops of natural vitamin E

Directions: Crush the butter and carrier oils with a pestle to obtain a smooth, creamy paste. Add the rest of the ingredients, mix well and pour the balm into its jar.

Important notes (Aroma-Zone): it's not easy to make a stable emulsion (cream, lotion) using only a wax. Waxes have a low emulsifying power, so we recommend adding an emulsifier. In addition, we recommend adding a preservative to ensure that this blend is preserved.

Use: Every evening for 1 month, massage a large dab of this creamy balm into the affected areas. Do not use during pregnancy due to the presence of essential oils.

1 ml cistus ladaniferus (gum rockrose) essential oil
2 ml pelargonium asperum cv Egypt (Egyptian rose geranium) essential oil
1 ml helichrysum italicum essential oil (curry plant)
1 ml daucus carota (carrot) essential oil
0.5 ml vitamin E
10 ml calophyllum inophylum (tamanu) essential oil
Top up to 100 ml with triticum vulgare essential oil (wheat germ)

Use: 1 to 2 topical applications per day.

2 tablespoons shea butter
1 tablespoon argan carrier oil
1 tablespoon avocado carrier oil
3 teaspoons rose hydrosol
1 teaspoon vegetable glycerine
1 teaspoon honey and royal jelly mixture (10% fresh royal jelly and 90% honey)
10 drops geranium essential oil
6 drops grapefruit seed extract
2 drops of natural vitamin E

How to use: Mix the carrier oils and butter until smooth. Gradually add the hydrosol while emulsifying. Add the vegetable glycerin, then the rest of the ingredients.

65 ml peppermint hydrosol
60 ml neem carrier oil
20 drops tea tree essential oil
15 drops cade juniper wood essential oil
