HIGH QUALITY OIL BLENDS

Jojoba chinensis Wax & 21 Basic Plant Oils 

Revered in skin care & in the clinical therapeutic setting, Jojoba wax is very similar to human skin wax & is uniquely liquid at room temperature so that it may be custom blended with basic plant oils, scents & essential oils for a superior synergistic & aromatherapeutic experience. 

The combination of a nourishing plant wax absorbing into the skin & a protective, waterproof coating on the outside reduces moisture loss & dryness & may thus slow the effects of aging. 

Some of these oils also have natural UV light blocking & reflective properties.
