Jojoba seeds contain alpha, delta, and gamma tocopherols, all forms of Vitamin E. Jojoba Oil is actually a "Liquid wax ester" and is not an oil, however over the years, people call it an "oil " due to its appearance. The extractable liquid from the matured jojoba seeds ranges from 50%-54%. Once the jojoba seeds are cold pressed, the jojoba is filtered in order to separate the remaining particles that cloud the oil. It is then transferred to an isolation tank where it is pasteurized at 70 degrees C to further improve the product. The plantantions are free of pesticides, fungicides and herbicides, and thus the resulting jojoba wax is absolutely free from any chemicals and therefore we classify it as a NATURAL product . WE DO NOT REFINE OUR JOJOBA - Refined Jojoba oil is de-colored, de-odorized, stabilized, neutralized, and de-gummed. Synthetic Vitamin E may have been added to refined Jojoba to replace natural tocopherols destroyed during refining. Jojoba is non-allergenic and non-comedogenic (non - clogging). It is molecularly comparable to the ester we produce in our skin. Our sebaceous glands produce sebum, which is composed primarily of esters like Jojoba.

Hyaluronic acid, also commonly called Sodium Hyaluronate. This material is produced by fermentation of (Streptococus Equi) with high purity and stability. Our HA has a wide pH stability range from 5 to 9. Hyaluronic Acid is a straight chain macromolecular mucopolysaccharide composed of repeat disaccharide units of glucoronic acid and N - Acetylglucosamine. Naturally, it is present in the joints, skin, umbilical cord, eye and the extracellular space of human tissue. It has an outstanding ability to retain moisture and has a high viscoelasticity and lubricity. Research has shown that it is critical to normal health function, not only by maintaining healthy, smooth skin, but also by lubrication of the joints, eye health and function, wound healing etc . It has natural anti-oxidant properties. Hyaluronic acid is able to retain more water than any other substance found to date which keeps the skin and other tissues hydrated. This in turn keeps cells from dying and maintains their ability to be able to absorb nutrients more effectively and eliminate toxins.

This results in firmer, smoother, and more youthful skin with greater elasticity. Rosehip oil also contains a high amount of essential fatty acids and Vitamin E, which further promotes healthy skin. In particular, it is rich in linoleic and linolenic acids, which are important skin nutrients. The positive action of Rose Hip Oil in helping to regenerate damaged skin tissues is due to its content of Trans-Retinoic Acids in a natural state as part of a complex system of unsaturated essential fatty acids. Therefore, its action is controlled and slowly released by nature, eliminating the risk of overdoses.
