Key ingredients:

Tallow, an ancestral skincare secret and a super ingredient in a tier above other skincare ingredients, is the basis for this multi-purposed balm. 

Tallow, bio identical to our own sebum, provides bioavailable forms of vitamins A, D, E and K, plus full of essential fatty acids not commonly found in common modern day skincare. The nutrients in tallow are in their bioavailable forms are more recognizable to our bodies, which means our bodies can utilize them better in their whole, organic state.

Used consistently tallow balances and regulates your skin. It is a balanced relationship, unlike other ingredients currently trending in skincare. In our modern confusion, tallow is usually a wasted product that is thrown away after an animal’s carcass has been butchered. In ancient evolutionary remembrance, we contribute to the wisdom and reverence of right relationship.

Calendula/Marigolds embody the essence of the Sun and its life giving properties. Calendula is nicknamed “Bride of the Sun”, married to the warmth of the Sun’s beams as it makes its trek across the sky throughout the seasons. A powerful healer, this blossom is ideal for all skin types and helps to restore skin elasticity, reduce blemishes and scars, and dial down inflammation. It has innate natural UV protective qualities 

Orange peel wax. Oranges are the bounty of the Sun’s light. The peel holds medicinal qualities and similar to the tallow, is typically thrown out.  We see the value of the peel as an ingredient that balances the skin’s oils. Kapha and pitta imbalance (oily skin) respond well to application of orange peels. We have strategically incorporated it into this formula to bring forth full spectrum vitamin C, bioflavonoids, and antioxidants that both fight free radicals and regenerate skin cells

Honeysuckle holds the frequency of pure happiness, and traditionally emulates the nostalgia of first loves, and memories of old flames.  We have added it into the formula as a love letter to the bi-directional photonics communication we are always in with our Sun.  The Sun gives every living thing on this planet love and all the abilities to thrive. 

Kukui nut oil is a natural moisturizer balanced in both oleic and linoleic fatty acids, and full of antioxidants Vitamins A, C and E.  The Kukui was highly revered by ancient Hawaiians for its many uses, and became an essential part of life, providing raw materials for medicine and healing, and most commonly, for light (both literally and spiritually). The word “kukui” means light or torch;

The Kukui Nut tree was a symbol of enlightenment, protection, guidance and peace, and its spiritual powers are still believed to flow through Hawaiian culture and its ceremonies.

A luxuriant, versatile and precious oil with antioxidant properties that prevents free radical cell damage, and has been traditionally used to reduce the skin’s sensitivity to UV rays.
