Soya bean oil (Glycine soja)
Soya bean makes a very good massage oil as it is very light and therefore absorbs into skin very well. In itself, it is rich in lechitin, sterolins and vitamin E.
Sweet almond oil (Virgin Prunus dulcis)
Sweet almond is an excellent emollient and is known for its ability to soften and recondition the skin. It is rich in proteins and vitamin D, and is considered extremely nourishing - particularly when used regularly.
Sunflower oil (Helianthus anuus)
Sunflower has high levels of vitamins A, B, D and E, minerals, lecithin, inulin, unsaturated fatty acids, and by all accounts, it is a good product for the skin.
Dead Sea Salt (Sodium chloride)
The dead sea is the most saline body of water in the world with far greater concentrations of minerals than any ocean (a concentration of 32% minerals compared to 3% of other seas). These minerals work together as regulators for all of cell activity and daily functioning, relieving muscular pain and stabilising fluid levels in the body.
Epsom Salt (Magnesium sulphate)
The high magnesium content in Epsom salt facilitates the removal of acids through the skin. The salt itself creates a high-mineral content that duplicates the benefits of a hot spring, great for combating stress and alleviating muscular aches and pains, when added to a bath.
Natural Clays
Natural clays, which are rich in a variety of minerals and trace elements, draw toxins and impurities to the skin's surface, leaving the skin purified, rebalanced and softened.
Glycerine
An odourless, colourless, syrupy derivative of olive oil, Glycerine is a humectant, attracting moisture to the skin. It is sweet tasting, warming to the skin and edible.
Oatmeal
These edible grains of a widely grown cereal grass are reputed for soothing, anti-inflammatory properties when used in skincare. In addition to relieving skin irritation, these highly hypoallergenic grains are also believed to help soften the skin.
