Active Ingredients and Skin Care Benefits

• Coconut Oil (Cocos Nucifera) — Medium-chain fatty acids (primarily lauric acid) that penetrate the skin shaft rapidly, locking in moisture and providing a protective barrier against transepidermal water loss. Delivers immediate softening to dry, rough skin areas.
• Unrefined Shea Butter (Butyrospermum Parkii) — Rich in oleic acid, stearic acid, and natural triterpenes; a high-concentration emollient that softens rough patches, reduces inflammation, and forms a protective moisture-sealing layer on the skin surface.
• Vitamin E (Tocopherol) — Fat-soluble antioxidant that protects skin cells from free radical damage caused by UV exposure and environmental stressors, while supporting the skin's natural repair process.
• Certified Organic Aloe Vera (Aloe Barbadensis) — Rich in polysaccharides and enzymes; soothes irritated skin, delivers lightweight hydration, and supports the skin barrier without clogging pores.
• Centella Asiatica (Cica) — A clinically recognized skin-healing botanical; stimulates collagen synthesis, accelerates wound healing, and calms chronic skin irritation and redness.
• Chamomile Extract (Matricaria Chamomilla) — Contains apigenin and bisabolol; anti-inflammatory compounds that soothe sensitive, reactive skin and reduce redness.
• Clary Sage, Rosemary, Grapefruit & Lemongrass Extracts — A curated botanical blend providing additional antioxidant protection, natural fragrance, and skin-toning benefits.

Who This Product Is For

• All skin types for daily full-body use — gentle preservative system and organic botanical formula suitable for everyday application.
