Beeswax is an indispensible natural raw ingredient that is used as a thickener or emulsiyer agent for many cosmetic products like creams, lotions and body butters.

Beeswax can also be used in a variety of other applications, such as making food wraps, polishing furniture and making pure beeswax candles.

Note that this wax has been refined, which means it has been melted and filtered, which results in a wax which does not have a strong honey odur or the traditional yellow colouring. This is desirable for many applications where discolouration is a problem.

Our beeswax comes in pastille/bead form, making it easy to weigh, use and store.

Ingredients: Beeswax

Safflower Oil Refined

Safflower Oil is a light and easy penetrating oil that is quickly absorbed and is suitable for all skin types. It is highly rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants; particularly Linoleic acid, which is an Omega-6 essential fatty acid that cannot be produced naturally by the body.

Its anti-inflammatory and regenerative properties make Safflower Oil very helpful in reducing the dry and itchy symptoms of eczema and psoriasis, as well as other skin complaints such as acne. Highly hydrating, it is also excellent for use as a moisturiser, helping to soften dry skin, promote elasticity, reduce wrinkles and fine lines, and improve the overall tone and texture of your skin by locking in moisture.

In addition to the wealth of skincare benefits Safflower Oil boasts, it is also excellent for hair care too. Being a quickly absorbing oil, it penetrates deep into the hair follicles, helping to hydrate and nourish your hair from the root. It is also known to help protect and prevent hair from future damage.

Safflower Oil is very popular oil for massage blends, and is commonly used amongst cosmetic manufacturers in a range of products including hair care products, moisturizers, lotions & creams, soaps, and facial & body cleansers. It is particularly well suited to products and cosmetics for oily skin.

Obtained from the ripe fruits of the avocado tree, Avocado Oil (Refined) is rich in unsaturated fatty acids, making it particularly nourishing for the skin. It is especially high in oleic acid (Omega-9), linoleic acid (Omega-6), dermal palmitoleic acid, potassium, and vitamins A, B1, D & E. Due to its versatile nature, it is also a fantastic carrier oil for diluting essential oils.

• Due to its incredibly nourishing composition, Avocado Carrier Oil is one of the major bases for many cosmetic, skin and body care products including bath lotions, skin moisturisers, creams and soaps.
• It has an excellent hydrating effect and is highly spreadable. It penetrates well into the corneal layer of the skin due to the high content of oleic acid and has a fantastic regenerative effect due to the skin-related fatty acids, making it very popular in anti-aging products.
• Other Avocado Oil benefits make it particularly suitable for treating rough, flaky and dry skin.

This Avocado Oil has been refined to remove the dark green colour, making it well suited for higher percentage usage in base oils or cosmetic formulations. Clouding may occur at low or room temperatures which is a normal process for this oil and does not pose a reduction in quality.

EPSOM SALT / MAGNESIUM SULPHATE PREMIUM GRADE USP/BP CERTIFIED

A premium USP/BP grade Magnesium Sulphate, commonly known as Epsom salt, which can be used to supply the body with abundant Magnesium and Sulphur which are absolutely essential minerals for health & wellbeing, which makes it an ideal choice for bath soak, foot soak, spa or cosmetic use, and in many other applications for therapeutic benefits.

Nanna's tried and tested home remedy for muscle aches and soreness, is to take a soak with Espom Salt. 

Great for soothing muscle aches by placing 2 cups of Epsom Salt in a standard sized bath and soaking for at least 10 minutes, or make a luxurious soak by mixing 2 cups of Epsom Salt with a cup of Bicarb Soda and 15 drops of your favourite essential oil.

There are various grades and prices for Epsom Salt, but watch out for cheap quality options, as they may be using cheap and even recycled chemicals to produce the salt and save money, and there is no garauntee or testing to verify the amount of magnesium contained in the salt.

USP/BP and Food Grade are the highest grades available, with both having stringent specifications that the Epsom Salt must meet before it can be either grade. If an Epsom Salt meets these specifications, then it is definitely a quality Epsom Salt. Our Epsom Salt is graded both USP and BP grades and is independently analysed to ensure the best quality.

Our zinc oxide powder is a raw uncoated product which is Non-Nano and Non-Micronized so is a safe option for lotions and ointments such as baby powder, moisturisers and barrier creams.

This can be avoided with the use of other oils like Red Raspberry Seed Oil which is said to offer UVA + UVB protection similar to titanium dioxide with a 28-50 SPF protection factor against UVB rays and 8 SPF against UVA rays.

The Zinc Oxide Powder is cosmetic grade and contains no lead.

Colophony (also called gum rosin) is a dried and cleaned part of the resin obtained from pines and some other plants, mostly conifer tress. It is a brittle and transparent brownish or yellowish substance added to compositions to make them elastic. (Rosin is a specific type of resin.)

Trapeze Artists and Bull Riders also use it for good grip!!

Other names for this product include Greek Pitch, Pine Rosin or Pine Resin.

Fractionated Coconut Oil is coconut oil that has had the long-chain fatty acids removed via hydrolysis and steam distillation. Just this one change makes the oil liquid at room temperature, and extends the product's shelf life. You will often hear fractionated coconut oil referred to as MCT oil or FCO. It is much lighter and non-greasy compared to standard coconut oil.

It is used widely in the skincare industry and used to make hair oil, lotions, body creams, lip butter and many other products. It is also used to make soap. You can also use fractionated coconut oil for culinary purposes. It does not become rancid easily, and so you can store it for quite some time. Since this oil can withstand high heat, it can be used for cooking safely. It is also devoid of trans-unsaturated fatty acids, a type of unsaturated fat and using it for cooking is good for the cardiac health.

FCO is also commonly used for massage oil and as a base oil for aromatherapy essential oil blends, due to its non-greasy nature and due to the fact that it resists going rancid due to light and heat, making Fractionated Coconut Oil, a very versatile and hence popular oil. 

Our FCO is a cosmetic grade oil which has not been certified for food grade use and is not for internal consumption.

Activated charcoal also known as activated carbon is a highly porous, negatively charged substance with an enormous surface area comparative to its apparent size. 

It is a powerful detoxifier attracting, adsorbing and removing chemicals, gases, toxins, poisons, drugs or pollutants, from the body. Positively charged ‘free radicals’ are attracted to the surface of the negatively charged charcoal. 

Due to micro-pores not visible to the naked eye the surface area of the Activated Carbon is immensely greater than what it appears. The greater the surface area the greater the absorbency. One teaspoon of activated charcoal powder has about the same surface area as a football field meaning it can adsorb a huge amount of toxins. 

Our charcoal is derived from used organic coconut shells.

Our Vegetable Glycerine, also called glycerol, is made from coconut oil, so it contains no animal products.

Because it is a humectant, glycerine is excellent for the skin, drawing water from the atmosphere into the top layer of the skin.

It is excellent for dry skin, used as a toner, a moisturiser and a healing oil for acne and other skin conditions.

Glycerine is added to emulsions (creams and lotions) in the water phase, however it is also used in hair conditioners, scrubs and foaming bubble bars and to assist distribution of colourants.

It can be used as an agent in toothpaste, cosmetics, shampoos, soaps, herbal remedies, pharmaceuticals, and other household items.

Macadamia Oil is high in mono-unsaturated fatty acids and palmitoleic acid (promotes soft skin) as well as Omega 3 & 6 fatty acids. It is a highly nourishing oil for mature and ageing skin.

Slightly thicker than most carrier oils, this non pore-clogging and non-irritating oil is well known for its components that combine with skin lipids to condition and nourish, leaving skin smooth and soft and providing a protective barrier against moisture loss. An excellent oil to add to your daily personal skincare regime as it has been known to provide positive results within a short period of time.

Macadamia Oil is a great option for massage and, in particular, pre-natal massage to help minimise the formation of stretch marks. Minor skin conditions such as psoriasis and eczema have also been known to respond well to this oil.
