Eternal Nectar Face Cream - A Deeper Dive

All of our ingredients are 100% organic, never sprayed, or genetically modified (even if we are not growing every single ingredient ourselves, we always prioritize quality). Here is a deeper dive into the ingredients of our Eternal Nectar Whipped Face Cream:

• Raw Unrefined African Shea Butter is is rich in vitamins A, E, and F, fatty acids, and antioxidants. Shea Butter is widely known for its potent medicinal properties including anti-inflammatory effects for conditions like eczema and psoriasis, healing capabilities for minor cuts and burns, superior moisturizing and skin-barrier-strengthening properties, and anti-aging benefits by boosting collagen production and reducing the appearance of wrinkles and stretch marks. It also offers protection from environmental stressors, a natural sun-blocking effect, and helps soothe skin irritation and prevent acne.
  
  
• We locally source our Grass-fed Beef Tallow from a small farm in Pennsylvania. Grass-fed beef tallow offers medicinal benefits due to its rich content of fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K), conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), and other beneficial fats like stearic acid and omega-7s, promoting skin health, wound healing, and anti-inflammatory processes. It serves as an effective natural moisturizer with a fatty acid profile similar to human skin, aiding in skin barrier repair and soothing conditions like eczema and psoriasis. In culinary uses, it enhances nutrient absorption from other foods and is considered a healthy fat with a high smoke point.
  
  
• Virgin coconut oil possesses anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial (antibacterial and antifungal), and antioxidant properties that support skin, hair, and oral health, and may offer benefits for weight management and brain function. Its active component, lauric acid, helps combat bacteria and fungi, while its medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) provide a quick energy source and may promote fat burning. Virgin coconut oil offers moisturizing benefits for the skin, which can help soothe dryness, eczema, and acne, promote healing, and reduce signs of aging by improving elasticity.
  
• Castor oil's medicinal properties for skincare stem from its rich ricinoleic acid content, providing deep moisturization, potent anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial effects. It helps to hydrate the skin by acting as a humectant, soothe irritation and inflammation, combat acne-causing bacteria, promote minor wound healing by keeping the area moist, and even reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by protecting against free radicals. It is also an effective emollient that can soften dry skin and promote a more radiant, even skin tone.
  
  
• Frankincense oil offers medicinal skincare properties by acting as an anti-inflammatory, helping to soothe irritated skin, and promoting skin cell regeneration to reduce the appearance of scars, blemishes, and wrinkles. It also possesses antimicrobial properties that help fight bacteria and can balance oily skin by regulating sebum production. Our frankincense is wild harvested from the Boswellia sacra species of trees, from the Dhofar region of Oman.
  
  
• Cedarwood oil has various medicinal and skincare benefits due to its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. It can help soothe skin irritation and symptoms of eczema, reduce excess oil production in the skin, and act as an antiseptic to combat acne-causing bacteria and promote wound healing. Its astringent qualities can also help clarify the skin and reduce the appearance of clogged pores. 
  
  
• Lavender oil offers numerous skincare benefits due to its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial, and antifungal properties. It can help soothe skin irritation and redness, fight acne-causing bacteria, promote skin healing and cell regeneration, reduce signs of aging, and moisturize dry skin. Lavender oil can also be used on wounds, burns, eczema, and insect bites to calm and heal the skin.
  
  
• Douglas fir oil offers potential skincare benefits such as a mildly antimicrobial and astringent effect, which can promote skin clarity and support wound healing, also aiding in deep skin repair on a cellular level. Its properties are also beneficial for adding a "purifying" touch to skincare blends, particularly when used to support skin affected by minor cuts or scratches. 
  
  
• Rosemary oil offers significant skincare benefits due to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties, which help combat acne, reduce redness and irritation, and protect against free radical damage to fight signs of aging. It also promotes improved blood circulation, tightens the skin and minimizes pores, and can help with conditions like eczema by improving the skin's barrier function and sealing in moisture.
  
  
• Patchouli oil offers skincare benefits due to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antifungal properties, which can improve skin tone, reduce redness, combat acne and infections, and provide an anti-aging effect by increasing collagen production. It also acts as a skin moisturizer, increasing elasticity and suppleness, and can be used to soothe irritated and dry skin. It is also an astringent that can help tighten skin, clear pores, and improve the appearance of fine lines, while its moisturizing effect helps with dehydrated and flaky skin. 
  
  
• Our Amish made Beeswax offers medicinal properties for skin, acting as a moisturizer, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and healing agent. It forms a protective barrier to seal in moisture, soothes irritated skin, reduces redness from conditions like eczema, and contains antioxidants that combat environmental damage and signs of aging. Its antibacterial properties also help fight acne-causing bacteria and promote the healing of minor cuts and scrapes.
