Active
Therapeutics

The vitamins, enzymes, fruit acids, and minerals we use are of the purest quality and most effective standards.  All herbs are chosen for their purity, freshness and potency.  Only certified organic, ecologically grown, and wildcrafted herbs are used.  Our uncommon colors reveal the richness of organic herbal extracts, and our delightfully aromatic scents are derived exclusively from 100% pure essential oils.  We do, whoever, avoid using the oils of sandalwood, rosewood or other tropical heartwood harvests because of their deforestation impact on rainforest ecology.  We recognize only ethical growing and harvesting practices.

Delivery
System

Our deeply penetrating creams create a perfect therapeutic environment to gently deliver active ingredients to the cells of your skin.  Purified water, organic juices, glycerins, humectants, liposome encapsulated vitamins and herbal extracts, combined with rich emollient emulsifiers and therapeutic essential oils soften, moisturize and enhance the absorption of active ingredients.  Our 100% pure botanical formulations are free of animal fats, mineral oils, artificial fragrances or harsh sulfate surfactants.

Preservative
System

We believe that preservatives in certain skin care products are essential.  Like fresh produce and dairy foods, botanically rich creams are susceptible to bacteria, molds, yeast and rancidity.  Bacterial growth can begin as soon as a product is opened or contaminated by human hands.  Products high in certain essential oils, detoxifying herbal extracts, and antioxidant vitamins can limit contamination.  However, using high concentrations for preservative purposes has not proven to be adequate assurance of broad spectrum protection.  We believe it is much safer to use a low level safety-proven  system along with vitamins, essential oils and antioxidants than to risk potential skin contamination.
