CALENDULA
The flowers of the calendula plant are recommended by Commission E and ESCOP for external use in treating skin inflammations and promoting wound healing. They can also be used to alleviate skin damage, for example, caused by UV light.
HINOKI WATER (Chamaecyparis Obtusa Water)
For the production of these natural soaps, exceptionally pure Hinoki water is used – that is, the aqueous solution of the steam distillate from Hinoki wood. This Japanese cypress species is rich in phytoncides. Plants produce these substances to keep pathogens and pests at bay. These antimicrobial agents can also be very beneficial for the skin's protective barrier.
VIRGIN COCONUT OIL
Coconut oil – also called coconut fat because of its solid consistency below 23°C – is extracted from the flesh of the coconut. Coconut oil is very rich in lauric acid and saturated fatty acids. Lauric acid has a strong antimicrobial effect. The oil is absorbed quickly and superficially, providing good moisturizing properties.
OLIVE OIL
Even in ancient Greece, olive oil was used to care for dry skin. It is considered to promote blood circulation and have a stimulating effect. Olive oil has a high oleic acid content, which provides protection and moisture. The oil leaves a light film and is gradually absorbed by the skin. Therefore, it is ideally suited for dry and chapped skin.
SUNFLOWER OIL
Sunflower oil is extracted from the seeds of the sunflower flower. The oil has a high linoleic acid content and is a light and mildly nourishing oil.
SHEA BUTTER
Shea butter is extracted from the nut of the shea tree. This rich butter nourishes the skin with its moisturizing, soothing, and smoothing properties. Therefore, it is recommended for dry and stressed skin.
LAVENDER OIL
In folk medicine, lavender is used for poorly healing wounds.
GOAT'S MILK
Cleopatra is said to have used goat's milk for her personal hygiene. Goat's milk is rich in vitamins A, C, B1, and D, as well as the minerals calcium, zinc, and potassium.
