Avocado oil
our favorite oil
We chose unrefined, organic, non-gmo avocado oil as our base in our salves and creams due to its endless nourshing properties.
Avocado oil has been shown to increase collagen synthesis, reducing occasional swelling, while penetrating the skin's barrier to help retain it's natural moisture.
Avocado oil is derivied from the fruit, not from the seed, making this oil abundant in micro and macro nurtients.

magniesum chloride
zechstein seabed

This trio of magnesium was chosen for its bioavailability, meaning it can be absorbed and used by the body easily.

beeswax
"just like honey baby from the bee"
Our magnesium cream is formulated with raw, local beeswax. Beeswax is abundant in vitamin A, making beeswax mositurizing to the skin, while it soothes red, irritated, and inflammed skin.
Did you know that honey bees have a very sophisticated memory for being so tiny? Not only that but, their dedication to their craft, and loyalty to their queen is unmatched.
It takes twelve worker bees to make one teaspoon of honey. With bees having a life expectancy of six to eight weeks. It takes 6 pounds of honey to make one pound of beeswax.
The 1/12 teaspoon of honey in six weeks is worth admiration, considering the very short lifespan of the bees.
