Raw Materials
Apricot Oil: Apricot oil is an excellent skin barrier and emollient. It locks in skin moisture and helps to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Apricot oil is naturally anti-inflammatory, antiseptic and antibacterial and can help to heal blemishes and protect the skin from environmental damages. Apricot oil is best for skin that is not acne prone.
Hemp Oil: Hemp oil is a balancing oil which helps to moisturize skin without clogging pores. Hemp oil can also help to even out oily skin by regulating the skin's oil production. Hemp oil is rich in omega fatty acids and can help cause inflammation and irritation on the skin.
