Oils, Butters & Waxes

Castor Oil

Castor oil is pressed from the seeds of the castor plant, a beauty-cabinet staple used across India, Egypt, and the Mediterranean for thousands of years. Thick and glossy, it's long been a traditional favorite for conditioning lashes, brows, and hair, prized for the soft, healthy-looking sheen it leaves behind.

Coconut Oil

Pressed from the meat of coconuts grown across the tropics, coconut oil has been a kitchen and skin-care staple in island and South Asian cultures for thousands of years. We use it raw and unrefined, so it keeps its natural richness — a deeply moisturizing base that melts into skin and leaves it feeling soft and conditioned.

Shea butter comes from the nut of the African shea tree, which can live for centuries across the savannas of West Africa, where it's traditionally hand-whipped by women's cooperatives and prized as 'women's gold.' Naturally rich in fatty acids, it's a wonderfully creamy butter that softens and comforts dry skin.

Beeswax

Beeswax is the golden wax honeybees build their honeycomb from — one of humanity's oldest crafting materials, used since ancient Egypt for everything from candles to balms. In our products it forms a gentle, breathable barrier that helps skin hold onto moisture, and gives our balms their lovely solid texture.

Grass-Fed Beef Tallow

Tallow — rendered beef fat — is one of the oldest skin-care ingredients there is, used by our great-grandparents long before modern lotions existed.

Jojoba Oil & Vanilla

Jojoba comes from the seeds of a hardy desert shrub native to the American Southwest, long used by Indigenous peoples of the Sonoran Desert.
