Natural Ingredients for Skincare and Their Benefits
Unrefined 100% Grassfed Buffalo Tallow — Dry rendered in-house, this exceptionally nutritious fat is the basis of all our products. Lab tests reveal that our water buffalo tallow contains a significant level of retinol. Each 3.3 oz jar of this product contains approximately 100 IU of this natrually occuring retinol. Be sure to read about the amazing benefits of our tallow here.
Emu Butter — This rich oil is high in Vitamins E and K and deeply absorbed in the skin. It’s also a powerful analgesic and anti-inflammatory. Emu oil has a balanced fatty acid profile, lending it to many anti-aging properties. It is also hypoallergenic!
Ostrich Butter - Ostrich oil also has a balanced fatty acid profile with many of the same attributes as emu oil, with the addition of Vitamin C. It is known for supporting faster cellular turnover and relieving burns and irritation. It is slightly richer than emu and the two together make a wonderful texture that absorbs rapidly.
Non-nano Zinc Oxide — Not only is Zinc Oxide nourishing and anti inflammatory, it is known as a natural form of topical sun protection. Zinc Oxide is not absorbed into the skin but provides a reflective film on top. Plus, it’s safe for ocean reefs! Read more about zinc oxide below.
Direct Trade Coffee — One of our favorite skin-healing secrets. Caffeine tightens fine lines, evens tone, inhibits growth of cancer cells, prevents inflammation, reduces puffiness, dehydrates fatty cells, minimizes the appearance of cellulite and creates a smoothing effect, aids circulation while restricting blood vessels, thus reducing redness including rosacea, acts as a powerful antioxidant and moisturizer, calms irritated skin caused by sun damage. Coffee is really a powerhouse for your skin, and we source it from direct-trade sources that protect workers and the environment.
*Note: We cannot make any claims regarding the SPF rating on this product with out appropriate FDA regulated lab testing. Zinc Oxide assists with UV protection by reflecting and refracting the sun’s rays. We’re confident you will receive some sun protection from this product, approximately the equivalent of 15-20 SPF. Please use at your own discretion.
More information about Zinc Oxide:
When applied topically, Zinc Oxide remains on the skin’s surface, forming a coating that functions as a protective agent, notably against the harmful effects of UV radiation and environmental irritants. This makes it an ideal additive to skin care products, such as lotions, creams, and ointments, especially those meant for application before exposure to the elements as well as those meant to soothe or prevent itching, infections, and skin damage.
Zinc Oxide helps to:
- Protect against damage caused by overexposure to broad spectrum ultraviolet rays (UVA/UVB)
- Maintain the appearance of a rejuvenated complexion by enhancing collagen synthesis and reducing the rate of developing signs of aging, such as fine lines and dark spots
- Regenerate connective tissue as well as new skin
- Moisturize and restore the health of chapped skin
- Diminish the appearance of enlarged pores
- Facilitate the healing of wounded or otherwise damaged skin
- Calm inflammation
- Soothe itching, burning, inflammation, redness, dryness, peeling and pain
- Balance the skin’s natural pigmentation
- Regulate the production of sebum and interstitial fluid
- Increase the number of other active and beneficial additives that penetrate the skin, when combined with other products that have rejuvenating effects
- Enable the healing of diaper rash by creating a protective barrier between the skin and the diaper
- Allow the oily substances in formulations to penetrate the skin
- Naturally facilitate the healing of scrapes, abrasions, burns, irritation, rashes, sores, and ulcers
