Key Ingredients — * indicates Certified Organic Ingredient

Murumuru Butter - Also from the Brazilian rainforest, the seed of the Murumuru fruit produces a butter with high moisture binding properties, similar to lanolin, which helps the skin retain water by creating a protective film. The rich oleic acid content also aids the moisture retention and nurtures the skin with vitamins and minerals.

* Sunflower Seed Oil - An abundant source of Vitamins E, B1, B5 and B6 among others; an excellent source of magnesium, copper, tryptophan and zinc. This highly stable oil is readily absorbed by the skin and helps to retain moisture.

* Hemp Seed Oil - One of the driest natural oils with rapid skin absorption, due to the unusually high content ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 essential fatty acids, which most closely reflects the skin's lipid profile. An excellent emollient.

* Cupuacu Butter (coo - poo - wah - SOO') - Obtained from the fruit seed of the Cupuacu tree in the Brazilian rainforest, it has a high capacity for water absorption (440%) and is therefore a long lasting moisturizer and excellent emollient. Reduces degeneration of the skin cells and restores flexibility, moisture retention and elasticity to the skin.

* Jojoba Oil - Very similar to human sebum, thus able to effectively penetrate the skin and reduce water loss, leaving a soft and supple feel.

* Green Tea Leaf - Has natural antibacterial and astringent properties, as well as a good source of antioxidants -- Vitamins E, C and B.

Rosemary Extract - A natural preservative which functions as an anti-oxidant.

Peppermint Oil - An ancient oil that has been in use for thousands of years, this active ingredient cools and nourishes the lips while also smoothing and softening dry, cracked skin.
