In my Handmade ~ Naturally Herbal Soap I use only the finest all
natural ingredients for my variety of herbal soap bars, lotions, creams and lip balms. Shea Butter
is used to
decrease age lines, add moisture and preserve your skin's natural balance.
Shea butter is doctor recommended
for eczema, post surgery, scars, rashes and patients suffering from psoriasis.
Shea butter works wonders on a babies gentle skin, replacing petroleum and mineral oil, which can be toxic.
Applied daily shea butter can help reduce the onslaught of stretch marks in expecting women. Plus, natural
shea butter replaces many toxic skincare products currently found in most households around the world.
I use only
essential oils. Oatmeal & Apricot Kernals are used to exfoliate.
Peppermint is used to cool, refresh, stimulate circulation, relax and promote tissue regeneration. Aloe
Vera emulsifies, tightens and rejuvenates your skin. The Rose Hip
Oil can promote tissue regeneration! Tea Tree Oil is a stimulant, anti-septic and used for a variety of
healing remedies. |
