Organic Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice
Known for its soothing, healing and moisturizing qualities, aloe vera is usually employed as a topical ointment for burns, sun damage, and skin abrasions. Aloe vera includes several necessary vitamins, including A, C, E, B1, B2, B3, B6, and B12, contributing to its anti-aging effects. Vitamins A, C, and E are antioxidants and help fend off free radicals which can contribute to chronic cellular damage.
Aloe contains 12 organic compounds called anthraquinones, which have antibacterial and antiviral effects. Our aloe vera contains a unique type of sugar called Acemannan. This polysaccharide is believed to have antiviral properties and help stimulate the immune system. Aloe vera also consists of four plant-based fatty acids which are shown to have anti-inflammatory and antiseptic qualities. The acids also contain pain-relieving components. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), aloe vera contains 20 amino acids, seven of which are essential. The plant also contains hormones and enzymes that aid in wound healing.
Lastly, Aloe vera’s anti-inflammatory and analgesic characteristics may be helpful in relieving muscle and tendon pain. The gel is often used topically to soothe achy muscles, burns, and rashes.
The plant also has hormones that aid in wound healing and eight enzymes.
Organic Ethanol
Our Organic alcohol is organically grown and harvested.
The natural (organic) plant-derived alcohol in our products will not dry out your skin. As part of a carefully formulated product, helps facilitate penetration of other beneficial ingredients and also acts as part of our natural preservation, making obsolete (additional) synthetic preservatives.
Organic Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Seed Butter
Cocoa butter is derived from the Theobroma cacao tree. An evergreen tree, the species grows naturally in southeastern Mexico southward through Central America and into the South America. Cocoa butter has been shown to contain high concentrations of plant flavonoids and polyphenols. The oil exhibits anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-allergenic and antioxidant properties that are beneficial for the skin. Cocoa butter is high in saturated fatty acids, making it an excellent and stable skin moisturizer and skin emollient.
Organic Glycerin
Organic glycerin is a thick, clear, colorless, multi-use liquid. Typically used as a humectant (an ingredient that keeps things moist, food-grade vegetable glycerin can also be used as a thickener and an emulsifier.
Our 100% USP, food-grade vegetable glycerin is gluten-free, vegan-friendly, and comprised of 99.7% coconut oil-extracted fatty ester and 0.3% water. Our ingredient is Non-Soy.
Vegetable glycerin is often used as a replacement for alcohol in tinctures as its hygroscopic properties (attracting and retaining water) allow for better absorption of other ingredients. It also works well as a massage oil due to its water-solubility or as a carrier oil in essential oil or other moisturizer-based skincare.
Organic Carnauba Wax
Obtained from the leaves of the Brazilian palm tree (Copernica cerifera), also known as the “Tree of Life”, carnauba wax is the hardest natural wax available. We use this ingredient to create the incredible texture of our product and also assists absorption.
This is a species of palm that is indigenous to Brazil. It is not the same species that palm oil is pressed from, but instead is a tree that grows wild in native forests. Annually, the leaves are pruned, and this harvesting practice allows the trees to continue with their natural growth cycles. “Less is More” is the philosophy.
Organic Sunflower Lecithin
In addition to being the most widely photographed flower, sunflowers contain significant properties as a skin nurturer!
Rich in nutrients such as calcium, iron, magnesium, zinc and vitamins A, K and E, sunflower oil is used effectively against inflammation and general irritations of the skin. The high vitamin E content acts as an emollient which traps moisture and keeps the skin well hydrated. It also helps prevent damage to cells by ultraviolet light and aids against premature aging of skin by protecting the collagen and elastin content.
Sunflower is a source of beta-carotene which is converted to vitamin A with benefits of protection from sun damage and free radicals. Omega-6 (linoleic acid), which is found in sunflower oil, assists with cell development soothe and re-balance skin affected by eczema, acne and scarring.
Citric Acid
Citric acid is a weak organic acid that is naturally found within citrus fruits, especially from citrus fruits such as lemons and limes. Its usual commercial uses in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals include its role as a pH adjustor and skin thickening agent within gels and creams.
Organic Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter
Shea butter is extracted from the kernels of the fruit of the shea tree, native to Africa. This fatty substance has a particularly high content of cosmetically valuable ingredients, including a high content of tocopherols (vitamin E) and antioxidant ingredients act as healing agents
Shea butter has a particularly strong moisturizing effect.

USP Micronized Progesterone
The first and most important standard to look for in a progesterone cream is seeing USP (United States Pharmacopeia) on the label. Progesterone is derived from diosgenin, a steroid sapogenin extracted from the tubers of Mexican Wild Yam Root. To render truly bio-identical progesterone (exactly like your body naturally produces), Wild Yam Root requires a special laboratory process to convert the naturally occurring saponins to bio-identical progesterone. Particle size is very important in the body’s ability to absorb it (absorption) as smaller particles more readily penetrate the skin. Our progesterone is further “micronized” to ensure optimal absorption, giving us USP micronized progesterone.
Our plant-derived ultra micronized progesterone has a particle size of 100% <10 microns and 95-99% <5 microns. We source from an FDA-Registered Facility that is GMP compliant and 14 checks and analyses are performed on each lot to ensure consistency and efficacy so our cream continues to perform for you, month after month.
Our special micronized progesterone is:
- Above and beyond USP standards
- Tested in formulas to show better absorption
- From an FDA-Registered Facility that is GMP Compliant
- 14 Checks and Analyses Are Performed on Each Chemical Lot
- Bio-identical plant based ingredient (Derived from Yam)
Our progesterone is made in the USA
As are all of our ingredients using green technology.
Xanthan Gum
An ingredient commonly used in skincare and food products to improve binding, emulsification (blending of fat and water components) and thickening. It helps prevent separation. Xanthan gum is found in every category of cosmetic products, with 3,470 reported uses under the FDA. Xanthan gum is a popular ingredient for green beauty brands as it is naturally-derived and is safe. The Cosmetic Ingredient Review has approved xanthan gum for skincare and personal use products.
Sodium Citrate
Sodium citrate is the sodium salt of citric acid, a weak organic acid. This ingredient’s purpose is to act as both an alkalinizing agent and as a buffering agent to control the pH level. It is important to balance the pH of cosmetics and skin care products in order to maintain the skin’s normal pH as closely as possible. .
