What's in it and why
 

• Plant Oils - naturally packed with vitamins and omega oils to nourish, condition, rejuvenate, hydrate and promote skin elasticity.
  Walnut oil - sourced locally from Granary Oils where walnuts are grown and cold pressed on the farm just a few miles away from where the product is made. Walnut oil is rich in omega 6 and 9 which promote water retention in the skin making it softer, supple and more youthful. Also very nourishing, the perfect oil for maturing skin.
  Macadamia - rich in palmitoleic acid which occurs naturally in the skin (but reduces with age), the function of which is to maintain moisture levels. Macadamia oil is therefore an excellent moisturiser and nourishes older, drier skin.
  Pumpkin seed oil - rich in omega 6 and 9 and also magnesium. Tones and lifts the skin making it firmer.
  Argan - promotes healthy skin cell growth, protects and rejuvenates, making skin soft, supple and elastic.
  Baobab - helps skin retain moisture, great for tackling wrinkles.
  Pure Essential Oils - Frankincense, Geranium and Patchouli. Chosen to soothe, tone and balance maturing skin.
   
• Plant Extracts and Vitamins – to give skin that extra boost!
  Acmella flower extract - has remarkable ability to visibly firm and smooth the skin, so giving it a lifted appearance. It has been hailed by some as 'botox in a bottle!' The extract is 100% natural and extracted from the plant buds which are harvested by hand so the plant is preserved. It is grown in South Africa by a co-operative of farmers in a bid to develop the local African economy.   
  Vitamin E - an antioxidant that is soothing and softening. Promotes healthy skin growth and keeps fine lines at bay. It is natural and extracted from non GM crops, mainly sunflower.
  Vitamin A - vital in products that promote healthy skin growth. It improves texture and radiance and diminishes the look of fine lines. It doesn't occur 100% naturally but is derived from plant sources, usually palm oil. I am mindful to only use Vitamin A derived from sustainable palm oil according to RSPO (Roundtable on sustainable palm oil) certification.
  Rosemary leaf extract - added as an antioxidant to naturally prolong the shelf life and freshness of the product. Organically produced in the UK and often used in food.
   
• Misc
  Emollient - isoamyl laurate, isoamyl cocoate. Included as it aids the rapid absorption of oils and makes the product less greasy. Has a silky, luxurious feel on the skin and is made from renewable natural sources such as sugar and coconut. It is Ecocert certified for use in natural and organic cosmetics.

Ecocert is an international organic certification body for sustainable and ecological development. See www.ecocert.com for more information.

RSPO is the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil.
They stress that sustainable production is the way forward, rather than boycotting palm oil altogether. Some very interesting reading and education.  See www.rspo.org for more information or follow on twitter.
