ALOE VERA
Aloe Vera (Aloe barbadensis) extract
Believed to be a powerful healer by traditional medicine men and women, spiritually aloe vera is an amazing plant for reconnecting your body back to harmony and balance.

AMBER
I remember travelling in Tibet and seeing great chunks of amber in the market. Now I understand why it is so revered. Amber spiritually carries the vibration of love to lift you up. No big deal!
I’m talking about the power of love, which is different than affectionate love. Love is a power that can bring you into harmony and balance, to soften resistance and dissolve fear. Love is the ever renewing source, and the remembrance that you are creation, moment by moment. You are not created and then become static. You are ever-flowing, ever-renewing, and ever-increasing in your life. The intoxicating scent of amber reminds you of this eternal beauty about yourself.

BEESWAX
Did you know that beeswax is an amazing natural preservative? We use it to beautifully stabilize emulsions (the stuff that keeps your cream from separating), rather than synthetic substitutes. Our beeswax comes from the hard work of beekeeper Gillian Lockwood, owner of Halo Honey. Gillian and I spent a of time perfecting the purification method of her beeswax (which comes from the caps of the honeycomb, and nothing else). I’m super proud to be using it in our elixirs. The spiritual properties of beeswax are about encouraging industriousness and collaborative work. There’s not greater example of collaboration than a colony of bees. Collaboration is about working together in a way that allows you to listen, understand, and offer information that really works for everyone in a symbiotic way. Time to feel alive, and get busy like a bee!

ROYAL JELLY
Royal Jelly is a milky, slightly sticky, substance made by bees. Bees use this jelly in their hives as food for the queen bee. It is the natural source of hylaronic acid. Hylaronic acid is well known in the world of cosmetics because it promotes collagen production. But not all hylaronic acid is created equally. Collagen is the stuff that gives your skin that lovely youthful texture that we all love. You skin is always synthesizing procollagen (the precursor to collagen) in the epidermis, but it won’t turn into collagen unless it receives the right signal. Hylaronic acid is that signal.
